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.

Well, that took a bit longer than expected! There were some teething problems during the upgrade, most of which isn't too interesting to talk about, but after a few late nights, they've been resolved and the site seems to be working fine so far.
As you can tell, there are a whole lot of changes, fixes, and a whole lot of putting stuff back in to come, but the upgrade means that the site is well in place for the big changes ahead with greater functionality and features planned for our visitors…

While many studios are cautious when it comes to new gaming platforms, Halfbrick Studios have dived straight into the latest gaming platform, the PSP Minis (the downloadable content service for the Sony's PSP and PSP Go handhelds).

It's also - remarkably - just $50 shy of the price of the new PS3 Slim.
The new PS3 price is a very…
New Zealand's premier games developer, Sidhe Interactive, got in a bit of a shock today when a lawyer representing the one and only, William Shatner, requested that the studio ceased working on a "mod" that contains William Shatner's image for their recently released casual game, Shatter.
Unfortunately for the Shatner estate, it seems that the mod was not actually real but a satirical mock up for one. It appeared over a week ago at Gameconsole.co.nz, written by "Krog".
Probably most amusing is…
Pocketgamer.biz have a great interview with Firemint CEO, Robert Murray, on their ambitious iPhone game, Real Racing. You'll find a lot of information on the AI, the engine, and numerous other technical accomplishments that Real Racing made, but what is remarkable is that this game was even made at all.
