Mr Dude

Just re-launched my website/portfolio/gallery thing! It has links to my YouTube and brief summaries of the models and animations I've done the past couple years. If we've interacted and you want to link to each other's sites, message me! mrdude.art

High Tide 🌊 ✨ A piece in my ongoing series of paintings called ‘A Starry Place’

This game is my personal "rented and beat it in 24 hours and mom got mad because it was supposed to last me a week" rental memory. Also I think I literally looked up the word "rampart" in the dictionary for it

Looney Tunes: Sheep Raider (PS1) added to the library: Ralph Wolf, Sam Sheepdog, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Marvin the Martian and more with animations, levels with animated props, waterfalls, lava and tornadoes, in-game fog, Game Show Studio with its crowd. Explore in the browser! #ps1 #retrogames

For my last game Rhell i animated a 2D character to run around a 3D world with about 5000 unique frames of animation heres hoooooooow~ #screenshotsaturday #lowpoly #gamedev

Fascinated with how they went with vests/shoulder pads in re1 to mask 'mushed together separate models for joints', introducing selective skinned meshes for shoulders while keeping elbows and hands mushed together in re2, before going for full skinned meshes (while keeping hands mushed) in re3

When I talk about the kind of art that AI could never mimic, I am specifically talking about this.

more work on my ring selector thingy. you really can spend all day polishing a single UI element

a little something for @detka.bsky.social ściskam mocno!!💚 #lowpoly

To all fellow creatives struggling with a segue, I wish you the courage to embrace the noble "this is what we're doing this week"

Getting models to use the smallest texture footprint possible is fun.

Kenney Shape is now FREE! (and it'll remain free, forever) ✨ Previously a paid tool, I'm releasing it as a gift to the community. Today's update will be the final one, with no further updates planned. That way I can focus on new software & projects! kenney.itch.io/kenney-shape

The Cartoon Network leak revealed that the team actually wrote fake interviews for the Powerpuff Girls in-house so that the writers could understand them better and honestly this is incredibly useful for learning how to characterize your characters holy shit

Uploaded a new version of the retro shader. drive.google.com/file/d/1czQ5... - Fixes emissive casting light on surfaces - Adds/demonstrates a workaround for Mist pass (which otherwise doesn't play nicely w/ Ray Portal BSDF) #blender #cg #retro

Would you believe our game is built from basically just 1 texture?

Insane oscillating vertex color usage in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (PS1) levels. This is what inspired me to add the "Runtime vertex color variation blending" in my tool Godot Vertex Studio, it makes it super easy to make vertex lighting and effects like this. #godotengine #gamedev

moped for the game that also turned into a flcl reference. #flcl #blender #psx #lowpoly

a different pitch - the story is really remarkable. It contains: - A story about the quest for immortality and revenge - One of the cruelest dialog boxes I've ever seen - A lovable human boy who you can give toys and games to in order to teach him about the world

you know you're locked in when fights play out so well it feels like a cutscene #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Spyro The Dragon (PS1) has one of the most beautiful levels in all gaming, it relies on vertex colors and colorful textures. Sky, clouds, moon are only vertex colors (no textures!). Explore Spyro in all its beauty now (+all characters)! Also Final Fantasy VII facial expressions!

wanna know one of the dirty little secrets of how to make a cool science fiction set? this bad boy right here, the NFS 4 Freezer Spacer. this fucker shows up EVERYWHERE in scifi set design ceilings? check! floors? check! walls? check! tables? check! instant scifi vibe

Want to get into digital art but only have a mouse? Well, here's a method you could use, which is the same one I started with years ago. Full vid below

I implemented dynamic subdivision so that the texture warping isn't too extreme. I didn't want to subdivide it too much though, so you can still see some warping. #gamedev #lowpoly #psx

Fun little UV trick I stumbled on because I'm really stubborn about how long I keep my mirror modifier active: Giving mouth textures a "profile" view when I slide them away from the mirror point #b3d

Finally the -tober prompt that I can follow to my heart's content

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

I'm doing a little experiment with pre-rendered backgrounds. I wanted the backgrounds to look lousy as hell, btw

i've started to learn blender and i gotta say, it's resulted in some really boring anecdotes. to take one example, yesterday i intended to keyframe-shift an object to 15.5 on the z-axis, but mistakenly entered 15.5 on the y-axis instead! thankfully i realized and corrected my mistake some time later
