I worked a bit more on this puzzle platformer I made for the GMTK game jam. You have to get across each section of the level using your loopy fireball, and strategically placing your limited platforms into the level from your inventory.

I also made this fireball and found a nice dragon asset, so now the dragon spits out a fireball to start the campfire.

Toxic sludge cannon? Check. Unsettling grin? Double check. ☠️ The Kotan Poisoner is coming, and it's here to make your next encounter a little more...corrosive.

Making where you use your shapeshifting powers to platform. Heavily inspired by Banjo Kazooie, Mario 64, and Pom Poko.

Wrapped up the punching combo I made to get familiar with working in Houdini for real-time. Of course, even with all that realism, things ended up very stylized!

Passion project I'm working on. A platformer where you learn new transformations which give you new moves. Heavily inspired by Banjo Kazooie and Tooie 🐻🐦

Finished my poison projectile... probably. Also used a few textures from the @vfxapprentice.bsky.social Goo Splat for this one too.

Decided to split my poison effect into two separate ones. I'll work on the projectile next. For these, I'm using a few textures from the VFX Apprentice "Goo Splat".

One of the main things you do in Mind Over Magic is build your school. I prototyped the look and built out all of the FX and shader for our construction fx. Higher res videos below!
