I should have done much more by now, but I am the wrong skin color and in a wrong location on Earth. I am tired.

Inititives like this are a huge part of how developers in Canada, Germany, and other countries with such grants were able to wind up such flourishing indie scenes tbh

We had no script at the time, we where pitching cinematics and had no clue they where going to get green lit, @blckporcelain.bsky.social Was pitching ideas as I visualize them. It was a great workflow. We had a great time. Days like these did not feel like work at all. #cinematics #Relooted

Cool! Oh fun fact, the Hideout is one of the IRL water towers in Joburg. We couple of these specific ones around the area.
Rand Water Water Tower IRL on Northcliff hill in Johannesburg.The Hideout from Relooted. Featuring an old 20th century water tower with colourful patterns painted around it. Also some infamous hadedas are roosting on it.

Here are some cool #Relooted Concept-art, I did for the game's cinematics. These helped a lot in knowing the colors and lighting we needed for the cut-scenes to work.

Relooted is a great game! My daughter LOVES it and that’s an absolute win. She’s 4 and see loves the loop of this game and I get to enjoy the history of some of the artifacts and the way it makes me feel to steal them. :)

Relooted (2026): 4 concept art by @bonganivizdev.bsky.social (art director & cinematic artist) Thank you to Charlene Lebrun from @mooncat.games for managing to ask @nyamakop.co.za in the middle of their promotional campaign so that I could share some concept art from this fresh afrofuturist game. 🙏
Two people stand inside a dark tunnel looking out toward a flying car ascending into a rainy, forested landscape through a shimmering blue portal.A person stands in a dimly lit industrial area, looking through a large rectangular opening toward a glowing flying car hovering above a city street under a starry night sky.Two people stand on a rocky hillside at sunset, looking toward a tall, cylindrical tower adorned with colorful murals and overgrown with hanging vines.A glowing full moon hangs over a quiet valley and a winding mountain road where a group of people have parked their vehicle to look out at the landscape.
