ever since I first saw @bananajeff.bsky.social's game Funeralopolis I've been kinda obsessed with this sort of... high end PSX type of 3d art style, like I can't get enough of it. It's perfect. I'm trying to figure out how I can do it: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qyyw...

Great thread and I highly recommend Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken, it is deeply inspirational while also being very down-to-earth regarding the fact a small, minutes long animation is a massive undertaking if you are not an entire team

"I've never been here before but somehow this dream feels familiar..." Waves done with several layered sprites with custom shaders, light uses Unity Light2D + normal maps, the rest is animated frame-by-frame. #pixelart #indiegame #gamedev

my understanding of kingdom heart (i have never played it)

I need to play Parasite Eve so bad man. I spent years holding Vagrant Story as my favorite game and didn't find out until recently "oh yeah square made a game in that style that takes place in modern New York" ???

Getting into the notes app Obsidian and strongly considering pivoting my website (mrdude.art) away from MediaWiki and doing some tidy markdown files instead, since this is about as complicated as I need pages to be. I don't want php databases anymore I want .zip files full of plain text files

Revised the ol' "Schweizer Guide to Spotting Tangents" lecture. 1/2

When I think of prerendered backgrounds I normally think of interiors or tight shots of, like, alleys and town squares. But man, there is so much space to create whole worlds off of just a few *really* well done paintings.

I was chatting to @anderssonkev.bsky.social about how I split up the facial features on my characters to allow for layered/overlapping animation, so figured I'd share this!

freaky bone shit is NOT my problem, forearms are made of DIAMOND AND CUBE

I am continuing to iterate on potential background styles for animation

trying to adapt a fire sim to engines took me days and was pretty ... unsuccessful. slapping a noise texture onto cylinders and animating it took me a few minutes. ^^ #Blender3D

some say metal gear rising is the best game in the series. some say metal gear rising is overrated and soulless. but we can all agree that they need to port it and let us skip the slow walking monologue segment it’s like twenty minutes fuck me platinum please i’ve already played it three times

Breakdown time! Let me know if you have any questions

Need to update my pinned post because, unfortunately, I have learned geometry nodes

My art laptop is growing so powerful

Barfly Fineliner and sharpie on index card

I've been scrounging up these techniques for months from miscellaneous YouTubes and someone just put it all in a google doc, hell yeah. Now I just need a true 1:1 open source After Effects alternative, but until then I will continue just bending Blender towards my every project

WHOA

whoa

I don't want to hear your most boomer complaint. I don't want to hear your most millennial complaint. I don't want to hear your most zoomer complaint. I want to hear the drum solo from In the Air Tonight

i think this might be the actual worst tv theme song ive ever heard

Bird girl, pencil on sticky note

Creating masterful materials is a craft that requires years of practice and deep understanding of how light works. But it cannot be overstated how close you can bullshit your way there by plugging perlin noise into your shader and playing with some sliders

the things we love

I see people making color atlas textures in photoshop. Hear me out, get a checker pattern texture from uvchecker.vinzi.xyz Simply bucket fill it in Blender, it's so easy. #b3d #tips

I've been coming across a lot of posts that aren't visible to logged out users. I think this is a beautifully elegant way to reduce visibility if you don't want to go viral, but it is having dire consequences on my capacity to share videos of cats with my wife

Since I probably won't be releasing this any time soon, here's the project for the shelved Pop Strikers video just for the Bsky crew: Projecting environments onto a cube to emulate moving pre-rendered backgrounds from stuff like Ocarina of Time. #lowpoly #gamedev #b3d #retro #PS1 #MadeWithUnity
