Un morceau d’emmental… 🎶

Yes! Digital art and, surprisingly, math have keep me creatively fulfilled. Ironically after sending that original bummer message I felt a wave of motivation for game dev and opened up an old personal project to see where I left it haha. So I guess I miss it more than I assumed

I suddenly stopped doing game dev about a year and a half ago after the third major burnout of my career. I miss it in the sense that I remember how much I used to love it, but that was a long time ago and it’s mostly been overshadowed by how predominantly negative my time in the industry was.

Even when I’m doing incredibly rote stuff it will recommend complete nonsense. Like, things that won’t even compile. The visual studio one actively wasted my time, especially given how long it took me to figure out how to turn it off

I never knew digging could be so juicy

So much personality in this behavior !! I find your procedural animations super inspiring. It’s really hard to communicate any personality other than "wacky wiggly" with procedural animation, but your stuff never feels limited in that way. It feels very natural and intentional. Amazing work!

I love poise systems so much. I have spreadsheets bookmarked of Dark Souls and Elden Ring damage statistics that I reference more often than I’d like to admit XD

"These Bugs Have Hands" sounds like the name of a hit new post-rock band

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all.

I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn.

Please, share this. 🖤

Another fire emblem attack idea

Study of a friend's photo

4000 a month, landlord pays no utilities, must have excellent credit 😭

Ahhh ok ça se tient haha merci pour l’explication

(Seulement que c’est une affaire de jeune)

Une amie m’a convaincue que “labubu” était une contraction de lobotomie. Je ne sais toujours pas ce que ça veut dire lol

I love how juicy the block placement and vacuum interactions are, really excellent work 😮

another attempt at a portrait of Adrien Brody from photo ref

Another Fire Emblem attack for practice. I've always thought their axe animations lacked weight in comparison to other weapons

you don’t get to decide if your work is NDA or not: your employer does. No need to be rude

“What’s that?"
"Sorry, I didn’t catch that."
*stares blankly*
“Pardon?"
"Sorry, I still didn’t understand, can you repeat that again?"
"So sorry, I’m having trouble, can you repeat it a bit slower?"
"Just one more time, sometimes I have trouble understanding people sorry"

I would be a useless unit

I decided to give Godot another shot, and I've been really enjoying it. It's a shocking reminder of how buggy and frustrating even the simplest of features in Unity have become in the last few years. I think it may become my default lightweight engine moving forward

Bien le bonjour ☕️

*La Marseillaise s’intensifie*

appliants perhaps? I love them 🤩

drew a couple creatures to practice simplified body forms

Tales of Symphonia fan art

This study is lovely!! 🤩
It’s a great show, and very well shot.

Hey #UE5 - if you're working on something #stylized and are looking for an integrated solution for cel shading that lets you ditch post-processing or bespoke unlit materials, my engine fork might be for you! 🧵

A couple recent studies of sculptures

Thanks so much Ajay, I really appreciate you saying that 😊 sure, I’d love to chat though I’m not currently planning on starting any new projects for a while
