Had a blast showing Noibs on stage last night, thanks everyone for your support - @oddlark.com is just getting started 💪✨✨✨👍

My last two brain cells as I playtest and fix our alpha build before Monday

#MIGW

Pretty sure you can just do two aim constraints with the correct offsets looking at each other if your hierarchy is clean-ish

We're so keen for Bitsummit!!

The @oddlark.com team before vs after attending: 🪩👄👍

Throw back to over 2 years ago?!

At that time I was developing a real-time paint stroke post-processing package for Unity. I moved on because some of the tech + learning in that unlocked an even cooler rendering pipeline that I'm using in our current game.

#gamedev #unity #realtimevfx #techart

Another crazy cool thing you can do with mesh shells:

Color Channel Splitting (screen printing errors) / Abberation on a per-object basis without any post-processing at all!

(...with a few caveats, this is highly experimental ahah ~~ 😘)

#gamedev #shaders #vfx #techart

okay, just one more because this is too fun - lets lean HARD into the graphic paint look!

#gamedev #shaders #vfx #techart

another cool thing you can do with mesh shells, good textures and some shader refinement ~~ messy paint strokes!

I'm already getting so much out of this implementation 😗

#gamedev #shaders #vfx #techart

...y'know what?

after refining the shells and textures, we don't need extra flyaway thread meshes, this is totally felt-y enough.

#gamedev #vfx #techart

Update on the needle felting explorations: the custom shell render feature was a success!

Now I've gotta work out if I want to mess with geometry shaders for the fins... adding those fly-away threads are really gonna sell it 🤔

(best example I found: github.com/jiaozi158/Sh...)

#gamedev #techart

... this is just a small selection of videos I had lying around of all the cool stuff we did, and we did A LOT.

I miss this game and team
