I’ve made some long overdue fixes to the youtube-dl front-end. Hopefully this will inspire the youtube-dl developers to update as well.
I haven’t been doing the background art jams lately, so there hasn’t been any new Blender art to post. In fact I haven’t done any Blender in months. I should fix that.
There haven’t been any post-worthy updates either. I am just working, as usual, trying to finish a project. My game ideas keep getting better, you should watch this space. Maybe you could be part of the future.
Many months ago there was a game jam with the theme “a glass of water”, and I made this:
I had come up with a setting that has a very low art burden, and in my brain this meant I could fill up development time with fancy blender water physics sequences and groundbreaking new mechanics for adventure games. But time is something you have very little of in a game jam, and this I had yet to fully appreciate.
In the end the new mechanics were too good for such a small game, and I didn’t work on it any further. All I did for this project was this test scene and a lot of design. It is probably the cancelled project I spent the least time on, but the one I still feel most guilty about abandoning, because just look at it. It’s beautiful.
Something I made for practice. It started with clouds, but they looked so good I added water, and then some much-needed mountain practice.
Production update: I keep working on my game even though I am sick of it, because I am close to finished. :)
Background Blitz. Theme: Crazy Temperature.
I was working on a better starfield background, and it gave me this idea for a Background Blitz entry:
As for the new game, don’t ask. It’s complicated. Why don’t you ever post any games?
