After 3 years of hard&fun work "Halls of Torment" will be released on XBOX and PS5 today. Creating the prerendered 2D oldschool look was certainly something different but it was a lot of fun to 'put' the the retro vibe into every single pixel. #godotengine #blender3d

Love that game! Me and my 6year old son had a lot of fun with the game! He said the graphics look as good as 'Super Mario World' 😊!

The 'Halls of Torment' outro cinematic. I was responsible for shading, lighting, rendering and compositing of the scenes and I tried to emulate the old 90's video game cinematic aesthetics like dithering, oldschool lensflares and saturated colors. Hope you like it! #blender3d

Ja, das ist dann eine wahrscheinlich eine Compilation, nehme ich an. Ich bin nur an den Originalboxen interessiert, also keine Zweitauflagen wie 'Best Price' oder KIXX und ähnlichem. Das kommt mir nicht ins Haus/Regal! 😊

Klassiker! Ich bin immer noch auf der Suche auf Ebay nach einer gut erhaltenen PC BigBox. Die Preise liegen aber meist bei 400€ und höher...

Ten years ago I started to work on a private game prototype but never finished due to lack of time . The main idea was a black&white horror multiplayer game with two players cooperatively roaming "The House", solving puzzles, communicate but never meet each other ingame. #gamedev #unrealengine

Textures, particles & shaders I made some years ago for 'GoodCompany'. I still love the mood and the look of the different seasons. #gamedev

Looks great! The design of the tanks reminds me of the 'MetalSlug' series.

I purchased a broken MT-32 some years ago on Ebay and fixed it. I'm still in love with it!

Still one of my Top10 bigbox games in my collection with a 'simple' but terrific boxcover artwork

At the moment this is just a little visual experiment but something tells me there's some interesting gameplay hiding behind those corridors... #UE5 #screenshotsaturday

I made this shader / asset for our game 'GoodCompany'. It's nearly a completely procedural shader with just one texture for the circles in the middle of the pond. Hope you like it! #gamedev #indiegamedev

Awesome scene! Great materials and lighting. Love the subtle translucency and/or SSS effects on the button pads

I created this 3D-rendering back in 2010 as a hommage to the good old days of DOSgaming. Modeled/rendered with 3dsmax and Vray. Hope you like it! #3dsmax #retrogaming #CGI #DOSGaming 'Back in 1991'
