Lead/Senior Animator in AAA and indie hobbyist. Climber, golf, mtb, etc... 📍 Wicklow, Ireland
The OS I use to block apps recently added a feature to block shorts, reels, etc and my god I'm in love. I've gone through phases of going months without Instagram to watching a lot of reels and back again. I hope this sticks
I have two seperate game ideas, which include an in game camera where you have to wait to develop / see your pics. I finally set aside some time to sort out the bones of this so I can continue to prototype both of them 🙏
Enjoying building out an entire anim set from scratch! Just need to get the arrow actually firing and doing things now...
Messy hands for the moment while I setup all the engine side of things...!
Some fun researching bow+arrow techniques for a personal project recently
Just remembered how much I hate the default animation tools in blender lol. Everything else UNTIL animation is so nice to work with
Have had a small breakthrough with my silly prototype, meaning that swing speed & angle finally do matter :)
Woke up with tinkering energy. Spent it on my silly golf prototype. I want to lean into the mechanic of standing on a ball and hitting it...
Happy to have gotten 3rd in Theme out of ~270 submissions! I think difficulty played a large part of this game's downfall... as it is insanely hard haha. More hints / SFX needed to guide the player, better onboarding etc.... Be grand. Maybe I'll do a follow up patch :)
Played a tiny role in a massive game, glad to see it getting such a positive launch so far! ❤️
Shoutout to gitlab.com/snopek-games... for the-so-far-so-good addon! I'll be building this game from the ground up using deterministic game logic to prevent hopefully most issues.
Just realized I never posted this here, but I am so grateful to have worked on the Oblivion Remaster with this amazing team ❤️
Made a silly Trolly prototype a while back. I should revisit some day soon. Mariokart meets Lidl
Ashamed to admit I am ~7 hrs deep into dredge, a beautiful game, and I find it really difficult and cannot progress whatsoever 😭 I have to find objects. Turns out, I am terrible at this exact thing
The way she holds the shoe is messing me up as an animator tbh I love it
