JJ Steeple - Making Starfly Scouts

Something is getting lost in the averages. A stratified analysis may be needed since the top 10% now make up the majority of spending in the US.

Severian is a woman? Or am I missing the meme?

This will never not be funny

This is an asset pack - I do not have a game using this pack on Steam yet, but I hope to before too long.

Modular Fantasy PSX Character by jjsteeple Character model with swappable parts, perfect for changing equipment

The modular psx character asset is now up for sale on Itch! jjsteeple.itch.io/modular-fant...

There will be a Unity store release, female version, and additional content coming, so stay tuned.

Panel 1: A swordsman with a short, ragged red cape, 2 brown belts, and a shoulderpad, stands with a wide stance and his sword drawn in his right hand. We see him from behind the shoulder of his opponent, who seems to be wearing blue. Something is written on the red swordsman's chest, illegible from this distance. Panel 2: We zoom in. What's written on the red swordsman's chest is "GOOD". He says "We could have been friends, you know." Panel 3: The perspective is turned as his opponent is revealed to be wearing a long blue cloak and rectangular framed glasses. The wind billows his cloak. Panel 4: The blue swordsman shifts his cloak to draw his sword, which glints in the sunlight with a "shiiiiing". It is revealed that on his chest is written "PERFECT". He responds: "No. We couldn't have."

Yeah, anything you would find in an elder scrolls style game. For modular characters, being able to reuse the same character with different outfits for players and NPCs is just not very common in the asset store.

Modular characters and dungeon interiors (not top down).

3 characters wearing plate armor in a field. From left to right, the plate armors are gold, steel, and rusted metal in texture.

For my modular psx style character, I used a different material slot for every item on the character, so its very easy to make character and equipment variations.
This works much better for me than a single texture atlas.

Totally agree. To me the differentiators are that Unity has fewer bugs and more features, but Godot was built for game devs to make games.

Are you just plugging this into a height map to make it 3D or going for marching cubes? Either way, it’s still a long journey ahead.

I’ve found it’s more visually appealing to just paste in his head at the inflection points

That is juicy, especially the audio

Those same composers did the Might and Magic 6 soundtrack as well, which makes me feel the same thing.

GAMEDEV EASY MODE
Character levitates off the ground, the air crackles around them. Magic suddenly erupts from their eyes, the pulsating beam hits a distant tower which explodes in an suitable cinematic way.

GAMEDEV HARD MODE
Character kicks their slippers off & picks up their phone from the table.

Mmm that’s some good constructive criticism.

Artists: stop belittling your shit.

Looks great! Would love to see some gameplay gifs

Love the art style, that looks great

Not to Be (Created by @jjsteeple.bsky.social ) - Rhythm survivors-like where you use your Heinz brand Lute to create deadly music and slaughter all inferior condiment lovers

I love the style on this art, great choice and execution!

That’s the best feeling. We all need to keep this perspective.

2025 and this meme will never die. ☕
