#MechJam day 3. PC and her hydrofoil mech modeled, textured and rigged, also half a water shader. I realized halfway through making the mech it's kind of TwinBee-coded, maybe I should lean into that gameplay wise? #lowpoly #mecha #gamedev

#MECHJAM day 1: brainstorming & moodboard (and un-photogenic project setup in Godot). I think I want to make a rail-shooter ala Burning Force or Space Harrier.

Getting started on a TTRPG entry for #MechJam VII.
Reckless Youth
In Hot Pods, you play those very Hot Podders- young people, some barely old enough to drive- who’ve decided, for whatever reason, to start making your own bootleg walkers out of scrap parts. You race them, use them to fight other gangs with their own hot pods, and dig through scrapyards looking for parts to repair or upgrade them. Caricatures of people like you feature heavily as menacing figures with pompadours and leather jackets in political cartoons. Pop psychologists argue over what to call the psychiatric syndrome they’re sure you have. (The current frontrunner is “Martianized Youth” after a book of the same title, though that’s likely to change as soon as someone publishes a new one.) There’s an entire music genre spinning up about kids from the wrong side of the tracks dying in walker accidents as part of a doomed romance.
