I made a thing!

A reminder that Mighty No. 9's end credits are nearly 4 hours long

I once played a PS1 demo disc, and on it was this game called 'A Dog Tale'. I'll let the footage speak for itself...

Dear everyone, Please stop using "larper" in fandom communities as a term for a fake or new fan. Yours, Dan

It's nuts to think we'll never get anything collaborative like this between studios ever again.

I'm currently enjoying this video series I'm making that looks at up and coming indie games with awesome art and animation. Here's my third video in this series: www.youtube.com/watch?v=lH0V...

Cool Thing About Game Animation #47: You don't always need to show everything in your character. For example, WHERE IS ALUCARD'S FACE HERE? All you see is the skin colour on his face, there literally isn't enough fidelity to show eyes, nose or mouth, but you know that a face has them.

This is how I'd re-animate Mega Man 8 in HD

I love supporting indie games where I can www.kickstarter.com/projects/win...

Made a little video on how to animate a flag youtu.be/HrpxdpWN38E?...

Doing my best to make my 'Triple "A" Games' newsletter as accessible as possible on Patreon

Which do you prefer?

Metroid Ravenous looks like it's gonna blow me away YET AGAIN

Ocarina of Time remake looks absolutely incredible, good job Nintendo.

In this age of ✦pristine AI✦ I think we should embrace imprefections and rough egdes more..

Okay so it seems I really enjoy making shorter videos looking at indie game animation. If I mention your game, I'd love to hear from you!

Did Sony just say the quiet bit out loud??

Short form content is so frustrating to produce and format for, cos there's all kinds of crap in the way of the actual video.

Playing Sonic Frontiers for the first time. I just can't get into 3D Sonic games. They feel 'stuck' with some archaic design that never seems to feel fun to me. This game in particular feels a little incoherent in all sorts of ways, nothing feels like it's connected in any sort of meaningful way.

Love the distortion effect they've added here in Mega Man Dual Override to fake a smear frame effect to mimic the original drawn quality from Mega Man 8

Trying my best to keep up with 'creating content' as well as living fulfillingly within my means. Pretty tricky, isn't it.

So like....either the Devs used AI in remastering the James Pond art, which is why the milk-jug cannon for the cow was completely missed, or the people who remastered the art missed the milk jug cannon. Either way, the original vision was lost.

If you haven't played it yet, Outer Wilds is 50% off on Switch. The best space puzzler you'll ever play.

This is the best god damn pen, I tell ya

I love the paper quality with lines

Cool what you can do on a phone with a spare 10 minutes

Eric Andre once told me he loved me for some fan art I did back in 2016

I dunno about you but £69.99 feels ENTIRELY reasonable for a game that's going to be this massive, especially as many were moaning about Mario Kart World being £69.99

Huge milestone for the Sonic The Comic Rescan Project. We now have a complete run of high resolution scans complete from Issue 1 to Issue 100! Two months of effort and 3612 pages scanned! All downloadable in various resolutions from the STC Scans website. stcscans.zone

Time for my second entry in my "Pokemon Crystal Reanimated" series; Starmie! Shiny Starmie to be exact! Done in Procreate Dreams. Sounds added in DaVinci Resolve. Again, thanks to @danroot.work for the inspiration! #pokemon #animation #art

Printed canvas GenAI art in my local chippy.

We're now in a possible timeline where a bin is the prime minister of the UK.

Please help this project get over the finish line! It's VERY like Mega Man, with great animation, a clean art style and most of all it just looks very, very fun! Please support! www.kickstarter.com/projects/and...

In my opinion, this right here highlights the biggest difference between being an actor and a VOICE actor. Just because you're an actor doesn't automatically mean you're suited to providing a voice for an animated character. youtu.be/aIkRFKsoOiM?...

I'm writing a book on how to animate for video games!

This is a frosted window by a garden at my work

Tried this idea of an 'animated pinbadge' - could be cool for a game

You can do a lot with a little

Oh hey I made a video highlighting some cool looking upcoming indie games with great looking animation: youtu.be/6VOFDlOFk38?...

This bit of 2D animation in the live action The Blob (1958) movie

Trying out a digital phenakistoscope

Spruced up my branding a bit with a new self portrait and a splash of new colours

Hey! I made a video that Samus actor Krystle Martin herself commented on: youtu.be/m--F9Nc1Ujw

I do love how pretty a Premiere timeline looks when a video is finished the editing stage!
