I'd love to! My art skills are pretty limited though.
The animations would definitely benefit from some extra prod value, like with hair flowing, clothes deformation, smear frames and stuff โ˜บ๏ธ

It's a 3d model I captured into 256x256px textures, for the albedo and the normals also.
I wanted the retro vibe, but if it's pretty lightweight in compute for the CPU and the GPU, the RAM takes a hit for sure (around 600MB for the whole moveset).

The character is a billboard with 10fps sprite animations, parallel to the camera frustum, with some damping going on ๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ The pixels are not always the same size on screen, but it's smoother this way, and ultimately not a huge tradeoff, especially since the moves are not that big, as she has no legs ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thank you very much ๐Ÿ™‚โ€โ†•๏ธ! Haha yes the shed is the first building I imported in here, as a tryout, and it worked fine.

Being told by โ€œgamersโ€ there is a kid who has never published a game but is the only one in the world that knows the secret to the unreal engine and every other developer including epic themselves reject him because they want bad games

When did we stop teaching basic logic?

I am so tired.

The guy singles out some issues with specific technologies, which there always are, and blows them out of proportion to make believe there's some major conspiracy going on on the AAA scene. I wouldn't take him too seriously, it's mostly clickbait.
