Hi iazu! I'm glad people are seeing the new art and that there's a good reception to it. For me, this is the first time workign on a remaster and working with Nightdive, and I have to say, the amount of care and attention that goes into this (and I assume all their projects) is just incredible.

Bart Wiltenburg @pestibug.bsky.social · 08/06/2026
Could you DM/chat me, I have some info for you. ( really don't use bluesky much for chatting, so ya gotta help me out here :D)

Bart Wiltenburg @pestibug.bsky.social · 08/06/2026
That is awesome! I hope, you will enjoy the endresult, we're working hard and really doing our best to make a remaster that does justice to the game. A lot of attention and care is going into this.

Bart Wiltenburg @pestibug.bsky.social · 08/06/2026
That's so cool! What did you do on the games? I think the best way would be to contact nightdive studios directly? (I can't give out any company info, like that I'm sorry) I'm a generalist on this project, texturing, modelling, characters. It's a lot of fun!

Thank you so much! I had a look at your little guy, look at him jump and wave, such a cute video. I think you will master blender just fine, this already a promising start! With some tutorials, your enthusiasm and just a bit of time, you will be super comfortable in blender before you know it!
