back to unity this week to extend movement and start on some systems - specifically, added a jump with varying force, a crouch, and a preliminary 🥷stealth detection🥷 (feels like bakers would frown upon bread literally running off shelves, right?).

this blog is a love letter to such flawless game genres as 'animals being menaces', 'characters too floppy to function', and 'how'd that guy get here' (aka peter griffin in fortnite and conan o'brien in death stranding)!

The most memorable moments when we play games are often the most chaotic, nonsensical, or absurd. Check out why and how game developers are now incorporating "silliness" as a core pillar of their design philosophy 👇

voilà, the results of maya therapy - spent the weekend studying, eating, and modeling/texturing some loaves in Maya and Procreate!

this week i focused on cams, WASD motion, + some rolling - and found myself in the depths of ✨behavior debugging✨
anyone relate to the feeling of this should work, AND YET? the relief of finally squashing that bug?
hey, it works! Maya therapy time! 😮💨

some work from yesterday! started on a minigame inspired by 'the bread' by gulu animation:
✨model, texture, + rig
✨basic animation + blendshapes (how does bread emote???)
✨movement tests - wasd vs. mouse + custom anim vs. mouse + procedural anim
so begins 🍞bread roll🍞!
