This style of light doesn't really appear in animation anymore. You know it when you see it -- it's bright, hot and almost dangerous. Our new issue explores the tricks behind it, and how one artist has revived the look for the digital age: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/dangerous-...

does anybody has an answer to the age-old question how to signal to the player that you can interact MULTIPLE times with an interaction propt a.k.a dialog?

is there a game out there that has solved it? I want to slice my dialog into chunks, but playtesters skip a lot of the dialog because they dont know there's more. maybe its just a tutorialization thing.

a few weeks ago I talked at our local indietreff about „How to win every game you‘ll ever play“ :) It‘s a short talk, about 15 minutes plus QnA -> youtu.be/RBiC5J71P18?...

26 July

it’s about how our social rules interfere with game rules, and got kickstarted by Dan Olsens fantastic „why it’s rude to suck at warcraft“

i felt inspired the other day on my way home. there‘s always this escalator that’s taking longer than you would have guessed; on some days it even seems as if you‘re standing still

got hit by some inspiration yesterday and worked on a quick 3D vignette 😌an infinite escalator

still WIP, but I don't want to put tooo much time into it

a few weeks ago I saw some very peculiar tree shadows on the wall of my house, which had very visible layers - I had to recreate it!

video quality is not good, so here's also a picture

the effect is projected by a decal, and divided by three layers. I added some chrommatic abberation for artsy fartsy purposes, but also to emulate light bending at the edge of leaves

could also be a nice wallpaper :D

✨We are excited to announce our Talks✨

8 July

I do a talk today at Indietreff in Hamburg :) Come around!

indietreff.bsky.social@indietreff.bsky.social

The second talk will be held by the awesome Jonas Pfeiffer:   ✨How To Win Every Game You’ll Ever Play✨   Our complicated relationship with game rules, their social counterpart and why using the Mimic Tear feels like cheating.

7 July

Heart Drive got nominated along other great projects at the German Dev Days ✨😊

who will I be seeing there? 👀

1 July

lighting and material test I'm trying to replace some pure gradient texturing with more handpainted textures, but I need to make them generic so I can reuse them a lot

1 July

I don't want to sculp anything, so baked textures don't break the aestetic of hand-modeled stuff - so even the high polys are modeled out

1 July

it's also a slippery slope to push the production value with sculpting and then not be able to follow through 😅
