I genuinely believe that Keeper is one of the game's industry most excellent and exciting achievements of the decade. A seemingly un-pitchable game that stands strong on its core tenets of emotional connection and teaching the player to let go of preconceived game notions. I thoroughly enjoyed it

When you make a game about a walking lighthouse, you sometimes get really cool gifts.

Sundays are for tripping balls.
We've played enough games with deep lore and over-indulgent storylines. Sometimes we need to just trip balls on some gorgeous visuals and vibes. It's a new playthrough of #Keeper! #streamersupport #youtube #lighthouse @leepetty.bsky.social @doublefine.com @xbox.com #bird #weird buff.ly/oPtWau0

This game is something really special, and the ending had me in tears! Nobody makes games like Double Fine.

Check it out for some behind the scenes goodness!
🚨 "The Making of Double Fine's Keeper" is now available! 🚨
Many of you have been asking for this one; we're happy to say the cameras continued to roll here at the studio during Keeper's development. Come see how this very special game came to be, from the team themselves! 😊

I did a lot of lighting on Keeper and it was a joy to have a fully dynamic lighting system, which made shifts in areas like this easy to do. We also had custom Lumen-based lights that @p1xelcoder.bsky.social put together that helped us hit the painterly/stage lighting look we were after.

Clearly, we should be hosting a Keeper-themed karaoke party.

Behind this distance fields lies Oliver's madness, presented plain for all to see.
Normal polygonal meshes have a fixed topology. Roughly speaking this means the number of holes in an object can't change. Also the (explicit) surface of two meshes can't be blended smoothly into one. This is no problem for distance field morphs with implicit surfaces.

Games should constantly evolve. When shooting a red barrel it should fart instead of exploding, for example.
Somehow, despite all odds, after doing game VFX for 20 years this is the only fart fx I have done.
My advice is to add farting robot vacuum cleaners to your game.

Using Midi/analog sliders as part of your workflow is a HUGE improvement over using your mouse on sliders. I used a Midi board for all of the lighting I did on Keeper to adjust intensity, color, falloff, size, and more.
Bonus post to end the week: If you are a graphics programmer do yourself a favor and get a MIDI board. It makes the work way more tactile and fun. Full props to Matt and @aaronmjacobs.com for getting me on the MIDI train. :)
