some fun with blueprints. Unreal astonishes with its speed

exploring python scripting in Maya!

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

baaack to basics babyyyy!!!! (only this time, i'm focusing on rigging!)

the SPARKies was fun! I got a bunch of people to test my game last night! always results in a LOT of good feedback. now to implement! I also got some kind words which is always encouraging!

thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth last night!

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.

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

authored a couple new animations for Garb! will revisit them further down the line, especially the run - but happy with them for now. #gameanimation #gamedev #solodev
