Mimic Meadows was featured in this Kotaku article!|

I've been working on the full version of Mimic in #godot for a year now and I've discovered cool new mechanics like eating and mating~

Wishlist to get pinged when the demo comes out: store.steampowered.com/app/4136640/Mimic_Meadows/

another fun addition is a custom sticky triplanar solution that allows for seamless (ish) drag and drop texturing on both static and deforming meshes

Another feature update: players can drive changes in materials through modulators, allowing for some classic motion graphics effects

Trying out a bit more formal attire with a black tie... Made the camera movement more dynamic, too.

I know this is just a wienernoid farting in zero G, but to me, this is the most beautiful thing I've done in a while. Really loving working on 3D games after only doing 2D games in the past.

First pass on the gizmos! Thanks to @shimmey.bsky.social for sharing his awesome grid shader. So good for prototyping.

A bit late to the party, but here it goes!

I'm Michael, and I most recently released a puzzle game called Ouros! You can play it on iOS, Android, Steam or Itch! (ouros-game.com)

Currently working on my next little project! Check out my itch page for more stuff: sharkwithlasers.itch.io

We are animating the gizmos, people. Pulling out all the stops.
