To be fair, I'm still only on the spinal column and hips - I know the shoulders and knees will be a whole thing on its own. We'll see!
There's an awesome presentation from the devs of Guilty Gear Xrd that I've been referencing, alongside some cool ROM reference from www.bodiesinmotion.photo

Last month's event (pictured) was a great time. Indie game dev can be quite a lonely path to walk down if you let it, so its great to always see people in person!

Finally taking the time to learn how to properly rig a character. I'm starting to understand Maya and 3D at a level much closer to the actual data of the scene, not just relying on what's in the viewport.

Watched Steve two nights ago - an incredibly moving, authentic and well written film with killer music that brought me to tears. Highly, highly recommended.

dug my very first ball bounce up, from almost two years ago when I'd never animated in 3D properly before!
it feels so good to look back and see how far you've come sometimes

The demo I played was also incredible - an extremely cohesive and narratively strong clicker game with a killer aesthetic and addictive gameplay. Just picked up the full game on Steam and can't wait to play through. Soundtrack is INCREDIBLE, too!

One of my favourite things I picked up at Develop - a beautifully graphic poster for the game Faceminer by @wristwork.bsky.social!

I spent the past two days working on Garb, in preparation to show it off at the Sparkies tonight in Bath!
some adjustments:
- health drop pickups
- no more requiring lock on to shoot
- general quality of life updates
also Garb has now been backronymed to Game.About.Rebounding.Balls!

Here's a work-in-progress bank of animations as part of a locomotion suite I've been working on with @edswain.bsky.social as part of my @limitbreak.co.uk mentorship! It's still rough and in the blocking stage at some parts, but I got it into Unity to see how it feels.

I completed a Unity bootcamp last night; 3-ish months of heavy game dev and C# learning. A genuinely lovely experience and great group of people!

Here's where I've got to after polishing the vanilla run cycle further, giving more love to the face and hands. Added a backpack and some animation to the hair too for some extra overlap #gameanimation #runcycle

here's where i've landed after spending a few hours on it this weekend! its stuff I've "learnt" before, but it's always so worth it to go back, frame through reference to really understand what's going on, and build that intuition
