Maybe you recall it? It was about stairs ๐Ÿ›•

A digital illustration showcasing concept art for "Shrineworks", living stone structures in the world of Spirit Crossing (a game being developed by Spry Fox.) The structures are beige-grey and covered with moss. An assortment of tubes is sticking out of them in a life-like manner.

โœ๏ธ our newest developer blog comes from Justin, one of our Art Leads at Spry Fox.

Justin sat down to walk us through the inspirations & thoughts that went into concepting the visuals for the Shrineworks in Spirit Crossing.

let's have a read!

Experimenting with advanced occlusion effects for Linework.

Configurable as 'render for X if occluded by Y'

Did you know that URP renders ambient occlusion before opaque objects? This allows for some cool tricks like blending textures using the SSAO as a mask!

Oh hey #portfolioday

Genndy Tartakovsky shared test footage from his film โ€˜The Black Knightโ€™. It follows a knight who controls a 20ft suit of armor. Sony isn't sure there's an audience for the film and havenโ€™t greenlit it yet.

After Kpop demon hunters success I don't understand why Sony are dragging their feet on this!
