Hey friends, I just lost my jobโ€”Iโ€™m looking for new work!

See a thread of work below ๐Ÿงต, or visit oldmanofthefire.com

Iโ€™m an artist and programmer. As an art director Iโ€™ve lead art teams on projects for Netflix, Apple, Sony, and more.

If youโ€™d be so kind, please share this to get the word out!

A gentle reminder that Johnathon Selstad has compiled one of the best libraries of mathematical tools for Unity. ๐Ÿ“Š

Inverse kinematics, Bรฉzier functions, Kalman filters, soft bodies, and much more.

If you are a game developer, this is a game-changer!

An experiment. Can you like this post if (and only if) you play and buy video games.

Some people over on Twitter/X seem to think it's only game developers here.

I stopped filtering myself years ago. Some people are always going to take a dig at you no matter what you do.

on FB I have the max number of contacts (5k). if I post an image with text I get around 50-90 likes, if I post a youtube embed with text around 15-20, but when I post a link to my udemy course (due to, say, black friday sale) I get 0. None. They want it to be a paid ad.

Bsky doesn't do that! See:

Yeah but you could buy a house and raise a whole family with a mailmain job so saving for it was way better then too.

Wait really? Had no idea labs had ten! Migrating as soon as I get home. I set up storage separate and have scripts backing up the assets separately as of now.

Market is getting rough out here. Once my current contract is up Iโ€™m swapping industries for my day job back over to software and just make my own games as a hobby personally. The stress of trying to get in this industries hood graces is rough.

More texture practice with a more complex model. First coat of paint on but the missile is eepy already and I'll work on giving it some personality eventually.

Using Unreal and they actually have a plug-in for it available from twitch but just needed some tweaking.

I've been BIG MIA, but I have been collaborating with some programmer friends and doing the #gamedev thing. Finishing up our demo for a cozy souls-like game!

WIP idle animation for Raijin. She is an all-out speed character who can fly, 8-way airdash, teleport and has an air-run rather than a regular ground run.

A technical character with paper-like defense as its major flaw.

Thanks to Koutetu Yarou for the design, go follow em!

True! Iโ€™m sure itโ€™ll pick up when the larger industry keeps coming over the Bsky, as these insights are invaluable!

Sure! But thatโ€™s the point is that most users cannot use this information in any meaningful capacity, so the interaction being low is valid. Gotta have the sales (and excess cash to not have to spend it) to sit in the account is a high bar for most indies. I learn a lot but doubtful I can use it.

Couple years back, the average indie game lifetime revenue was barely 3 to 4 digits lifetime right? The vast majority make nothing or so close to it that an extra $4 at the end of the year. Worse even if it has to be in an account itโ€™s often not able to be used for eating food haha.

I don't think it's aversion for any reason besides the fact that finance is borderline useless for most non-high performing indies as they aren't making enough to use any of it. Making a total of $30 a year with games means the math is easy. I personally love the information, though I can't use it.
