It's Next Fest day 2!

Remember to check out Go Kart Island, the only game in Next Fest with go-karts... on an island. As far as I'm aware at least.

Still image of a gif, of a stylised Bearded vulture in low-poly 3D. Designed, rigged, animated by myself.

Welp, I've just found out that my role has been made redundant 🫠... So I will be looking for work!

If anyone is looking for a 2D/3D Generalist or Art Director for games (particularly specialising in stylised projects!) please shout! From concepts > modelling > animating thru to implementation 💛✨

Digital painting - aerial view of a city at night, gothic buildings among the urban sprawl. A river runs through it. Dark blues and orange street lights.

I spent literally all of my savings working fulltime on my game over the last year, and Kickstarter funds don’t come through for 2 weeks, so I’m going to open up a single commission slot!

Ping me if you want an illustration! 😎

Here's a Mythwrecked #ConceptArt time lapse that Anya (not on Bluesky just yet) did for us early on in the project.

She painted on top of our greybox geometry which was super handy.

With so many people making the leap over to Bluesky..

Update on my pixel art guide for beginners:

Transferred all the information from Tumblr to a Google Doc, so anyone who doesn't have a Tumblr account can now read through the whole thing!
I also updated quite a bit of information too.
I hope it will help somebody!

Lots of new followers over the last few days! Really great to see the indie game community growing on Bluesky.

FYI my next indie game (MYTHWRECKED) is a modern take on Greek Mythology where you get to save the long-lost gods.

Sound cool and want to support?

Huh... Guess we really are in the dumbest timeline.
