They are all animated through spine! I didn’t do any mesh rigging to save time as we were on a tight schedule and I was just learning the software, but I used a little bit of frame by frame animation where needed.

Some early concepts I did for Sword Slash!! I wanted the game to be bright and colorful and look a bit like a children’s book. My first pass at the beach was full of corals and huge conches, with brighamia inspired palm trees.

I got to design a ton of cute monster creatures for Sword Slash! I gave them fangs and horns and mischevious looking eyes 😈 because otherwise they looked way too cute (oopsie), but the kids loved them!

Last year I also worked on Sword Slash Adventure, a game for the Nex Playground, a motion gaming console targeted at kids that’s only available in the US so far. In SSA you have to slash monsters by swinging your arms around! I did all the art for it ✨

Hi all! 🦝 I'm looking for a new position as a game design lead / director! I've been designing games for almost 15 years now (😳) with 6 of those as a lead, on anything from AAA transmedia worlds to experimental indie projects. My website: robin-v.net Please share! (and friends, say hi!) 💜

On Spooky Express I also concepted biomes for the park! The mockup was in a graveyard, we had to think of other spooky settings.. A pumpkin patch, a dark forest, a swamp, a manor, a crypt.. and many more! I tried to concept a lot of them fast so we could then pick and choose the best ones.

❄️⛸️❄️It was amazing to show the first peek of the game to people at @mivsmagfest.bsky.social ❄️⛸️❄️

I’m gonna make a thread of some other dinosona commissions I made in December! Starting with this really cool one for @nirvanadraavon.bsky.social~

finally finished it

Some other characters I designed for Spooky Express! First, the human. They have a variety of appearances and I tried to make them look a bit androgynous. At some point they were really into balloons and would get out of the train if they saw a platform with balloons 🎈✨ Also.. costumes...

twitter has been deserted for good so i suppose i will post here too: i am currently open for work! hit me up if you know of openings that i'd be a good fit for 🫡 i updated my hireme page with a sample of the stuff i can do - videogame graphics, VFX, 2D art and so on polclarissou.com/hireme/

It's #ScreenshotSaturday & here's a look at our recently released puzzle game, Spooky Express! All the passengers are dying to ride! Don’t let them miss their stops: they may be monsters, but they still have places to be and people to eat– er, we mean meet! store.steampowered.com/app/3352310/...

I also finally took the time to watch Audition a few days ago and I got too emotional to post about it haha, it is SO CUTE and it feels insane to see a fan project of this scale (so much work!!!) and it's so well done... And with so many characters I got to make commissions of 🥺 aa

wow I just looked and read through all of it and I'm a bit overwhelmed, I feel so lucky that GVH touched so many people in such a profound and lasting way... I'm gonna keep it preciously, thank you so much to everyone who contributed 😭💖 I love all this art so much

If you've picked up the latest copy of EDGE, keep an eye out for an excellent 9/10 review of Spooky Express in there: “Whether you're a mere mortal or a puzzle demon, then, you're all but guaranteed to enjoy the ride.”

Hi hi hi, if you requested a commission through my form and didn't receive an email, check your spam folder! And if nothing's there, feel free to DM me.

Thank you everyone for your interest in the commissions 🥳 I just sent emails to everyone who requested one so far! Honestly it makes me so happy to see all your characters they are all so cute and I'm excited to draw them all 🙈

the next time we send out a newsletter we may or may not be announcing our next game 😇 Sign up so you don't miss it buttondown.com/ko_op

The entire nearly-an-hour-long soundtrack for Spooky Express is now available to stream, for free, on my youtube channel! If you listen please take a second to subscribe! I'm working on adding more of my soundtracks here and currently make nada from these streams. www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Now that Spooky Express is out, it’s time to shout out the people who made it happen! Thread follows... 🧵

First of all, art – with production art and animation from @adamdegrandis.bsky.social, and concept art from @roilulu.bsky.social. The visual identity of the game was crystal clear from the very beginning - they knocked it out of the park!

If you haven't checked out Spooky Express yet, here's my pitch! 🚂👻 You Get: A chillingly challenging puzzle game with the tone of a cartoon Halloween special 🎃 You Also Get: To support a small international team working sustainably & loving what they do 🥹 store.steampowered.com/app/3352310/...

Reminder: Spooky Express is OUT NOW! 🚂🧟🧛 Take charge of the only rail service willing to carry the undead passengers of deepest, darkest Trainsylvania. Steam: s.team/a/3352310 itch: draknek.itch.io/spooky-express iOS: apps.apple.com/app/id673842... Android: play.google.com/store/apps/d...

The team at @draknek.bsky.social have made another excellent puzzle game that is perfect for gamers looking for something to play for Halloween that isn't packed full of gore and jump scares. Approachable with well designed difficulty steps, and loads of side levels, Spooky Express is fantastic!
