A new demo is out for Tamabuki. Everything is still very early so there's not much to do, but I would love to hear any feedback.

A new enemy appears...!

I wanted to do something closer to Gundam, but I think Medabots, Digimon, and Yoji Shinkawa still ended up inspiring a lot of this design.

New enemy. He's just a little guy.

You wouldn't attack him on sight, would you?

Working on a heads up display sort of thing to show you your pet's energy (essentially ammo for your gun and any abilities you may decide to use) and other stats while aiming.

Spent the day modeling some cool little low poly toy packages for the game. They don't have a spot yet, but I'll certainly put a conbini or toy store in the game later for them to make an appearance in.

The one on the left is from a fellow dev's game: Acrolyte.(wishlist on Steam now!)

These are like, infinitely better. I'm never putting physical holes on low poly models ever again. I should've been using alpha textures from the start. What was I thinkingggggaaaaaa

Is it me or is it dusty in here?

(Dust particles are enlarged so they're easier to see) Took me a while, but I got my flashlight to have dust motes in it that get occluded by shadows.

Very cool car that will be seen in-game almost exclusively with a beat-up broken grossy gross texture layered on top of it.

Made a popcorn machine and some dumb little candies to populate this gross-ass theater with.

Working on a decrepit old movie theater to explore. Been enjoying making the posters out front.
