Hey there friends! Unfortunately, I was among those impacted by layoffs at Heart Machine last week. If you or someone you know is looking for an experienced Unreal Engine Technical Artist, I'm available for full time, part time, or contract opportunities.

TBH, I'd much rather see Zelda 1 remade. I think there's a lot more to do there the modernize it, and bring it into 3D (even if it's in the Link's Awakening / Echoes of Wisdom style).

The Lantern of the Laughing Saint (in Early Access) is one of the best games I’ve played this year. A densely packed, Morrowind-inspired island with a humongous tower dungeon in the center that siren-calls people to enter, never to escape again. Also mushroom people youtu.be/lkACCwDDh4Q?...

Been working on the Rig Stack - a cheap, data-driven, hierarchical rigging solution for Unreal. Supports modular rig stacks (pose readers/resamplers, twist distribution, copy data & constraints) in either the Control Rig or AnimGraph. Still heavily WIP, but it's coming together!

my thought with all those at Epic today. it should be illegal to lay off 20% of your workforce on a whim. it's not perfect, but there are more protections against this sort of thing in Europe. support politicians with legitimate connections to labor unions.

Seeing the #WhatAGameDevLooksLike tag trending again, so I'll drop my silly mug here too I guess. 15+ years in AAA games striving to make the coolest cinematics I can make! When I'm not making games, I'm usually *playing* them, and -as of a couple years now- streaming my gaming misadventures too!
I can raise my left eyebrow pretty high, but can't do the same with my right brow 😫this is obviously the more normal version of me, just looking head-on into the camera

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')
comparison between apple's finder icon and mine. apple's is the split blue and white smiley face, mine is two blue and white anime girls making outcomparison between discord's icon and mine. mine is like a screaming cat on a blue/purple slimy backgroundcomparison between celsys's clip studio paint icon and mine. mine is similar but rotated with some comic styling and pink and blue highlightscomparison between mozilla's firefox icon and mine. mine is similar but looks closer to the old firefox icon and brings back the little arm and gives the fox a cute little smiley face
