Visual pass for the fully interactive physics based dice role using click + mouse motion to shake and click release to toss. A transparent randomness design that makes me feel like the results of chance are a direct result of my actions and timing. #ue5 #gamedev #indiedev

A couple of hit flash tests in #UE5 Each one derives from the same set of parameterized function logic, allowing for any asset to support a range of unique data driven hit flash visuals. #UnrealEngine #realtimeVFX #gamedev #indiedev

Another art direction test for @notaponygames when we considered a minimalist co-op interior decoration game. Ultimately the art scope was unbalanced for our team, pushing us to continue prototyping additional ideas. #UE5 #UnrealEngine #Blender3d #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames

This one didn't quite make it out of the conceptual phase. The pitch was a simple competitive heist game where players could quickly bounce around collecting items with their sticky exterior, attempting to escape at an opportune time. #blender #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame

Not a grade, but after having shipped two indy games without any financial success, no money in the bank, living in a foreclosed home, and moments away from giving up on game dev altogether, I got an email back for a job at Oculus, allowing me to find my true passion in tech art.

The @PolyarcGames marketing team pulled together a fun Moss & Moss 2 sizzle reel. You'll hear and see some familiar faces.🐭It's been a great ride so far and we couldn't have made it this far without the support of amazing fans, friends, and industry partners along the way. TY!
