Another VTuber project from earlier this year, this was a personal project where my goal was to learn applying realistic face tracking to a non human character.
This was a commissioned project of a Twilight Princess inspired 3D VTubing avatar. My first time creating a VTuber, so I learnt a lot and enjoyed bringing the character to life!
Recently completed VTuber commission of a cute little Jerboa Knight! Was a pleasure to work on such a fun character and I learnt a couple of new things about stylized shaders and rendering along the way.
Had a break from learning c# by making a new player model, britanny of gold digger.
Model, basic texture, animation in 3 days (less actually, time also spent rewriting bone spring code (to get tail to work well), like 2 days plus one recovery day, so yeah, the texture is very first pass...)
also fixed physics frame rate (physics was clamping without me knowing) which ment i could fix the jump heights
found a great new workflow which takes the time to get animations into ogre from 5min to 30sec…

If there's anything to learn from the Australian Appstore charts, it's that we're a nation that loves hunting for doodles. A well deserved congratulations must go to Melbourne indie developer, KlickTock, for reaching and holding the top spot in the Apple's free apps section for an entire week with their frantic "Bejeweled Blitz" meets "Where's Wally" hybrid, Doodle Find.
Doodle Find is not a lite edition or limited version of a game - it's the full thing, complete with trophies, achievements,…
It's certainly been a bit quiet on the L.A Noire front since its big reveal in the March edition of Game Informer magazine, but with Rockstar's recent release of Red Dead Redemption, all eyes are now set on their next major release, Team Bondi's long-in-development and anticipated detective thriller game, L.A Noire.
Rocktstar have just pumped out a whole new batch of L.A Noire screenshots to keep the punters reminded that it's coming along nicely for a expected release later this year. No video…
Righto, enough is enough! Over the last few years, and particularly within the last few months, tsumea has been receiving a constant stream of messages and emails from high school students, school teachers, and program directors of special courses, all of whom are requesting further information on work experience in the local games industry. I can imagine that many Australian / New Zealand game studios are getting the same sort of enquiries, and it's unfortunate that in the eight years I've…
