good morning it's #portfolioday !!!

always around for 3D generalist work-- my largest body of work is character work, but i've done props and environments in the past, very versatile

get in here early and you get my great personality and jokes for free 🤸‍♀️ there's also more at tinyurl.com/sz2yjpe3 !

Wow this game still exists?!

OKAY it's been a while but I'll give a small update! Got a few more things done like the area transitions, moving platforms and more! Sorry for the lack of updates. By the end of the month this should be looking quite different!

You may think you don't have strong opinions on coding practices until you meet someone who does it wrong.

I’d like to see a YT video titled “The smallest games coming in 2025”… tired of following the biggest ones 🥱

Manifesting for 2025:
* Clarity, purpose, and effective action in our darkening political world
* Excellence at work
* Reinvesting in friendships and finding safe ways to hang out with good people

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Okay! Here's a VERY VERY early look at what I'm working on. It's a rage game (Getting Over It, Jump King, etc.) but with pinball physics. I started this about a week ago but realistically worked on it for 4 days due to vacation. Nothing here is final!

I rotoscope all the animations for my adventure games, which means mostly doing all my own stunts.

This is an old tech/style test for using camera motion to mask a scene load and smooth the transition.

So hear me out, what if there was a card game where you’d have to color the cards similar to how people paint miniatures 🤔

Pendragon Core Rulebook 6th edition intro

It’s not exactly a board game but I received this today… heard lots of good stuff for Pendragon in the past and decided to give the new edition a try 😁

I find "loot" and "lut" (as in look-up table) being homophones super amusing.

My latest game idea: massively single player online solo RPG with bubble bobble & souls-like elements 🧐
