musician/anime drawer sometimes/game maker never this is basically an art i like blog at this point (mostly cute things)

how was mina the hollower? is there anything you really enjoyed or appreciate about the game and how it functions/was designed?

oops its been 2 months. mostly i like it bc i really like the gameboy zeldas etc. this is because I'm old

I like the bone beach boss a lot. its obnoxious and killed me way too many times but I really enjoy having some bosses in the modern day designed around positioning yourself correctly and kinda improvising how to dodge stuff and deal damage, vs just learning what moves the boss does and countering them with specific other moves

one minor quibble is the map actually has a bunch of discontinuities and overlaps etc. I really like it when you can stitch together and view them as single connected piece but I can understand in this case that that probably would have made the level design a lot more work than it already was

(also while it had a lot of fun to find secrets etc. its much more an action game than a puzzle one so I'm hoping isle of reveries can scratch my itch for dungeon headaches)

is there a programming language or engine you find the most comfortable writing code for?

(answering these very late) These days i do most side project stuff in rust, and I'm following the development of the bevy game engine fairly closely bc there's a lot of potential there imo.

That said, if I wanted to make a game quickly I'd use godot lol.

I grew up making games in the games factory/multimedia fusion - imo those are actually the most productive engines I've ever used for just making stuff super quickly, but I don’t think I've seen a truly good modern variant of that kind of gamedev workflow yet..

more playing with material maker to make retro textures

[easynam]

thank you greatly for answering my ask earlier last week!! if it's okay to ask... what's something you're working on right now, and what do you like most about your progress so far? i also hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Hi! (sorry for late response)

I’ve been all over the place recently so I’m not doing any real projects, just trying to figure a bunch of things out for later

eg

would like to be be to do 3d gamedev, decided to finally get around to learning trenchbroom so i can have a level editor im comfortable with. did a few test maps with free kenney textures to stay focused but ended up looking at timelapses etc from people who make quake maps

ended up looking through some of the texture packs the community has (makkon’s textures in particular), and they’re really impressive. this has brought me back to wanting to mess with procedural texture generation, so Ive been making a bunch of cliff and brick wall etc textures in material maker lol (im mostly trying to figure out the process and make reusable nodes for myself, but its fun)

and then on the side i am thinking about how id write a node based editing app again..

(before that i was doing a quick tactics game gamejam in godot and got distracted from that by making some songs which i need to figure out how to write lyrics for and then after that i did a bunch of building of anime girl model kits lol)

[easynam]

hi there, i hope you're doing well! i REALLY love your character design along with your other projects, and i wanted to ask, what do you consider the most challenging part of gamedev or drawing, like you wish there was double of you during the process? thank you so much for posting your art on here!!

just happened to long for the first time in months so good timing…

thank you! personally I’m very bad at consistency so if there were 2 of me i think one of them would need to be my manager

(I am trying to fix that this year by drawing every day though, and trying to do art/music/etc in a way that keeps projects from getting so messy or complex I can’t return to them

Also i guess i can post small musics here. Tumblr is better for this kind of thing than twitter is anyway i guess.

I wrote this in ~25 minutes for a one hour competition 2 years ago (after scrapping my first idea) but I still like it

[easynam]

in the interests of actually posting something it is time to start posting old art!!! but also it is new as far as this website goes. bc the last time i posted art here is 6 years ago

this is a character i did one doodle of and then decided to do a 3d model of to learn blending. still not sure what her name is

[easynam]

hm

[easynam]

i heard this place is nice rn??

[easynam]

wow i havent touched this site in a long time

[atelierbunny]

[easynam]

I made a model of my character to learn 3d! It was fun. Gotta rig it next I guess

You can view it in 3d here https://skfb.ly/NXI7
