Ok so googling pictures of the Icelandic krΓ³na led me to discover that people abroad buy them to use as fantasy money in nautically themed D&D! Lol!
Finally, I'm proud to announce that #Illugen 1.0 is available.
If you need to generate assets for special effects, this is the tool for you : Spritesheets, noises, caustics, masks, meshes(including pivot baking) ... and much more to come.

If youβre working on, writing about, or have a hand in making video games in Iceland, let me know so I can add you to the Icelandic Game Scene starter pack!
#gamedev
seeing people doing the "what was you most popular art you posted on twitter" and it's all cool ass masterpieces

Hopefully this will stop my Twitter opening habit π

Thanks dude! π
You can really feel the influx of people coming from the Facist bird app now so welcome everyone!
Here's my starter kit which is slowly growing as more of you awesome peeps come in.

Follow some lovely game artists.
I've so many new followers thanks to someone adding me to their starter list I thought I should do the same. β¨
I follow some lovely game artists, I think you should follow them to!

Iβve said it before and Iβll say it again:
Game devs support other game devs. I have NEVER seen an actual #gamedev celebrate a studio closure or a game getting bad reviews.
On the contrary, we WANT other games to succeed! Making games is hard, and shipping is even harder. We support each other.
Started setting up a starter pack for technical and vfx artists here!
It's not conclusive yet, I'll update it as I go, but it should be a great start to find some awesome artists β¨
go.bsky.app/Bih7pqu
I went through the list I made before and added most people to a starter pack so you can just follow all in one click!
there is only enough space for 150 so I will eventually make another! I'm just going through manually so some people will be missed accidentally/ran out of space
There are 59 places left on my Realtime VFX Starterpack. If you are a Tech/VFX artist or you know some which are not yet on the list, let me know!

Coming from a small island in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean it is so incredibly fun and rewarding to get to go out into the world and meet other people that do realtime vfx π, as well as so many interesting game devs with stories to tell
Great fun and learning at #gic24, will definitely come back to this conference in the future.
#realtimevfx Starter Pack 1.1.9 is out: go.bsky.app/3R8aUNM
