I feel like I haven't made a new space in a while so I threw together a small world between yesterday and today after work. It's a little melancholy but I that's okay. It's 12mb so good for a home world! #VRChat #Blender #VRCWorld

Custom bug for myself using that base with a bit more hollowknight feel. Still working on getting the head to feel right.

I gave it a lil :3 for the head like a reverse of that cute Uni cat.

Ah, Snowdin Town. For Undertale's 10th anniversary I decided I would redo an old project of mine, it's just taken a little longer. This map is super cozy and is feature packed. I'm still working on adding some finishing touches and bug fixes, but it should release soonish. #VRChat #Undertale

Decided to revisit an old project and give it some life. Really brings me back to how this all started.

No its not even Halloween yet but eh I'm just not feeling very spooky this year. Dreamlight District was good enough for Halloween festivities I think.

Starting work on a cozy Christmas map for December.

It will be much work to fill a mall with fun toys but I have a solid month and a half of time to work.

This is 4 days of progress just getting the layout and basic lighting figured out.

Dreamlight District has been a pretty nice launch. I'm still working on this world and fixing little bugs but I'm happy with it.

Finding youtube videos that actually work with all the new issues has been rough. One video will work for a week then error out. That's okay we will carry on.

No chairs, just using udon platform hook so you can jump on them! I can make the collider bigger or remove the pole Collider if that would help.

Been working on a version of my city festival world that anyone can use for events. It's coming along really well! I've even got light volumes in it!

I do also have this test version of liminal nightmares before I did the overhaul but it was never public.

Same of this with liminal dreams.

I'm a little confused as to what you mean. We're talking about this world right? It could be my memory is a little fuzzy from a year ago but I don't remember really moving any of the paddle boards to make them easier to find. The last few updates I did was just fixing some collider issues.

Liminal Dreams is a separate world upload from Liminal Nightmares both are available for you to visit anytime!

Thanks to many tests we're getting near to release which is super weird considering I thought this would be done around Halloween.

I'll be having a few more test instances but the main reason I have them is to test if people can navigate/find bugs/solve puzzles and I go along with them to watch as they play test. I'll probably have one up tomorrow night!

Oh I updated Liminal Dreams fixing a few things like missing colliders. I've never really considered creating a discord but I've made a vrchat group that I occasionally hosts instances of WIP poolrooms for feedback.

Published a small project to community labs. It started as a sketch on Saturday and went from start to finish in 3 days. I've been working on some long term projects for so long it's nice to get something small out. There's still room for improvement but enjoy for now!

I've decided to go with 128x point filtered textures to make the map look stylized yes but also it reduces a ton of file size I can use for things like lightmaps or sound. I'm also integrating checkpoints instead of boards this time you can access at spawn.

I've been making great progress on my second liminal map. I've decided to branch out with more than just poolrooms in this one and allow myself a lot of freedom.The map is pretty big already but I have so much more to do. Check out a pic! #Liminal #VRChat #VRChatWorld

This is the playlist. It's all music by ZeroFuturism. If you click under the bench in the starting area the video controller will appear. I hid it so random publics wouldn't ruin the atmosphere.

Yeah! That's what the initial picture I posted is! It's my more spooky version of the poolrooms which is why I'm calling it liminal nightmares. Still no monsters or anything just unsettling architecture.

This was the card I made for Liminal Dreams: The Poolrooms when I was selected for the Venice Film Festival last August. The whole world was really just a relaxing lighting study. I love the relaxing vibe of the poolrooms, it's my all-time favorite liminal space/backrooms level.
