Sunset at sea. A big sun reflects on the water. A ship sails along the horizon. On a rocky island in the foreground, a man stands on the cliff edge, saluting the ship with a bottle. A small barrel sits behind him. A grave is visible in the corner.

screenshot of a video game. the scene contains a large three-story wooden house with bones sticking out of the ground around it, and a bright red moon in the sky glowing through reddish clouds.

STOP DOING MATERIAL ART
- MODELS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN TEXTURES
- YEARS OF PROCEDURAL GENERATION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for anything other than MS PAINT
- Wanted to see realistic textures anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: it was called "PHOTOGRAPHY"
- "Yes please give me SLOPE BLURRED PERLIN NOISE. Please give me a GRUNGE MAP" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged

LOOK at what Material Artists have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the Substance Designer & GPUs we built for them (This is REAL Material Art, done by REAL Material Artists): 
1. Perlin noise heightmap applied to a metallic cylinder
2. A screenshot of a horrendously messy node graph in Substance Designer
3. Dead Fish Pile material by Eric Wiley

"Hello I would like [visual of perlin noise] on a rock please"
They have played us for absolute fools

Impaling enemies, reaching high places, taking shortcuts, or just swinging around with style:
The Spirit Spear is a powerful and very versatile tool! 💫

Miss Morri rendered as a Hollow Knight-style bug character, dressed up like Hornet. Her hair is tied back in a ponytail with a sharp white ribbon in the shape of Hornet's head.

[MMP] Hollow Knight (PART 1)
YouTube video by Miss Morri Plays [MMP] Hollow Knight (PART 1)

I've got Friday's VOD of Hollow Knight up if you'd like some soothing background sounds and/or to watch in amusement as Bug Morri squishes while I speak.

it's been over five years and I still love this game...

This is a really vulnerable time for paypro call centers. It's already been reported that Mastercard is stressed by our persistence

I know we're all busy around this time too but let's fire the engines 🔥

Pay Brittany Gonzalez using PayPal.Me Go to paypal.me/Briggsycakes and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

I’m begging.

I only have until today. If I don’t pay $1880, I’m on the street. I have a job, Ii start soon, and I don’t want to be homeless on my birthday. 😞

Please. I’m almost out of this; I don’t want to lose everything.

Awake me really hates tired me. Awake me does all the coding, and tired me just goes around making a bunch of notes about how awake me needs to remember to account for XYZ and so on.

Friggin tired me. Never reduces the amount of work, only adds.

I say this as tired me, adding things for later.
