Holy crap. For 3D texture artists this is a godsend.

Animations! So this style I'm going for is working out pretty well. From Concept -> 3D Model -> Rig -> First Pass Animations, it takes me only about a week per character. Before when I was painting textures I had to also Unwrap the models. Those two extra processes took me an extra week per character. So overall I should be creating assets at a doubled rate! =)

The 3D model of an enemy robot concept I posted a few days ago. It's going to be fun to animate cause it's eye shoot lasers. Hell yeah. LASERS.

A preview of my new stylized environment for my prototype.

Just some more animations.

I'm testing out a new simpler style for the game. I decided to start with the main character. I redesigned him, modeled him and animated him in 3D. I did that not to only see how it would look but also to see how long that would take. As you can tell I don't plan to really add much textures. I'm going for a mostly flat color scheme. But overall I'm liking it and also asset creation is a ton faster. Next up will be a quick background test in a more simpler style.

Enemy Concept Process

I just wanted to share how I usually concept things out. It’s pretty straightforward. Start a rough and then refine and start adding and taking away things. Anyways I hope it’s interesting to show it in stages.

52 hours to make a game...on a train to San Francisco to attend the Game Developer's Conference? Oh hells yeah! Too bad that I'm not planning to attend GDC this year. It's definitely something I would love to do for maybe next year.

Victo Ngai - Like Knows Like

I've been gobbling up her illustration works for the past year. The video gives a bit of insight into her studio and her process. I believe many artists can relate to her on her family's views when she decided to pursue art as a career. I know I still struggle with it. The video is worth watching.

I'm ALIVE!

I've survived till 2014, So happy new year! I know I've disappeared for a few months..errrr half a year (Shit that is a long time) but I'm still going to try to develop a full game this year.

Even though I knew it will be tough, I still had not expected it to be THIS tough. The thing I learned from the first failed attempts is that it is hard to keep yourself motivated. Sometimes I just sit and stare at my computer and do nothing. My resolution for this year is that every time I do that i'm going to punch myself in the face... with a pillow. What? There's no way I'll use my fist. My hands are the most valuable things I own right after.... well let's just say I'm not going to hurt these babies.

So I've gone back to the drawing board and really just sat down and figured what I can and cannot do. I pretty much came to the conclusion that I can't really do much of anything. So I simplified and simplified and simplified until it was sort of possible.

Here's what I have planned now: Simple story and simple game mechanics. Simple graphics? Undecided.

But here's some new stuff for now:

Until next time!

Some more art concepts for my game.

[onelargetable]

Just a mockup of what I want my prototype to look like. 

EDIT: need enemies to fight!

BTW, I decided to change the visual style of my game along with my main character, Ralin. It's a lot more fun working in this style than my previous one. Anyways this is my new concept art and a run cycle of him. The textures and animation needs a lot of work but I think it's a good start. Can't wait until I start doing his attacks!

IllumiRoom Demo by Microsoft.

I have to admit this is a pretty cool concept.

Tried to design a character who wears her Health-bar and Mana-bar as stockings <3
