Quick one day project! Made a Sunshroom from PvZ! Modelled it up in blender, 3D printed in PETG, sanded down and painted in acrylic paints then sealed with some clear nail polish! #pvz #fanart #blender #3dprinting

Here's a little side project I dabbled with a while back, concepting up a little low pixel art isometric pvz idea. While the colour palette and resolution is that of Pico8, this mockup was made in Unity so I could make a pixel upscaling shader! #pvz #pixelart #isometric #fangame #gamedev

Been kinda itching to develop my own worldbuilding revolving around some form of caste system and figured octopuses and other cephalopods could be what that revolves around! Bonus points if anybody can name all of these species!

#screenshotsaturday Core-Ruption isn't just a cool puzzle game, it's also a platformer inspired by classics in the genre like Super Mario Galaxy and Jak and Daxter. Here are just a handful of platforming sections across multiple levels, alongside the puzzles scattered across those same levels.

#indiegame #gamedev #unity When playing Nebula, maybe you may encounter items of the 🔥 Molten set 🔥. This equipment will have you sporting a lot of health and fortitude, and while the movement penalty may slow you down, eruptions of lava from the passive effects will melt your foes in no time!

Here's a handful of renders I've done applying various custom written geometry node modifiers! These have been done over a pretty wide timeframe, each of them leaning into different mechanics! I really like how some of these turned out to be honest! #heptopod #cephalopod #blender #geometrynodes

Heres the Zepht model v2! I made it a while back, in a more simplified style than the first iteration. By this point I was experimenting a lot with geometry nodes, the tentacles on the character being made fully procedural, from simple splines. #heptopod #cephalopod #blender #geometrynodes

Prep for my next step. Using noise (my new favourite tool!) to create a snow mask. I'll be blending it onto the icy ground plane to bring in some more texture and break up the reflections. Will def. need to tweak it but it's good enough while I setup for rendering some big ground tiles. #gamedev 🥶

Despite making it through a vrchat tutorial, i never managed to finish the process due to not enough game time. I did however rig screenshots of the model up as a vtube rig at one point! The face itself is actually a handful of layers of face pieces plastered on to it! #heptopod #blender

Here's the beginning of an era, back around Nov 2021 I had my first dabbling with blender! I had previously gotten halfway through donut tutorials, but this was the first model I had actually completed. I had loosely followed a vrchat avatar tutorial for this one. #heptopod #cephalopod #blender

Recently made some tokens for a themed, fully custom script for social deduction game Blood on the Clocktower! We playtested once and will need to revise it before next time. Pieces laser cut (acrylics and wood) and then coloured with acrylic markers! Laser files and half the icons designed by me!

22 laser cut acrylic tokens representing different roles, laid out on a table. Most are blue, representing good roles, while 5 are red to represent evil roles.

Smaller, wooden tokens are stacked up on the acrylic tokens, each used as a marker within the game theyre for.

A screenshot of a Discord conversation between Zepht and Hyla. Zepht just sent an image of Hyla the Heptopod, mimicking a Homestuck troll by changing her skin to a pale grey and her ears to mimic candy corn colours. Her purple suction cups and a slight green accent at the end of her tail remains. Hyla is still wearing her trademark olive jumper, dark grey leggings and black/green shoes.

Zepht, after posting the photo: "oops, sorry, that just fell out of my pocket"
