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.
Ok, it was announced two weeks ago, but it's never too late to make a post about it! Creative Assembly have announced an expansion pack for last year's hit, Medieval II: Total War, called Medieval II: Total War Kingdoms. It will feature feature four new campaigns and over 75 hours of new gameplay...
"With Medieval II: Total War we offered unrivalled scope of warfare, both on and off the field of battle, as you conquered the known world" commented George Fidler, Studio Director, The Creative…
The games industry in England certainly has seen better times, but an article over at ft.com reports that Britain's once mighty games industry has slowly been dwindling over the years, and now faces stiff competition from other countries in investment and retaining talent. The Financial Times states that England had an estimated 400 independent studios in 2001, with that number drastically shrinking to 150 of late. Further exasperating the problem are reports that companies, like locally based…
Nullabor 2007 was a demo party and game development competition that was part of the GO3 expo held just recently in Perth. And for the lucky first and second placed entrants in the competition, they received a position at Interzone Games' Perth Studio!
This year?s competition featured more than three times as many entries as 2006?s inaugural event, and saw a significant improvement in the general level of polish and flair. The winners were chosen by popular vote, and prizes were presented by…

I've been working heavily the past few days on putting Sumea developer access back in due to popular demand. Sumea developer access was taking out during a Sumea admin overhaul quite some time ago, but it's back now!
So, what is developer access? Well, if you're a games developer, a game developer service, or educational institution listed in our database, and you'd like to update your company information, add and update details on your games (such as release dates and screenshots etc), as well…
Congratulations are in order to Krome Studios for making it to the top 100 developers list in the "Develop 100" charts for 2006. So what exactly is Develop 100?

A new site launched by Krome Studios showcases the staff's fortnightly challenges. It's a nifty insight into the creative brains when not focussed on game art, and should be interesting to watch grow. The current challenge of Pirates Vs. Ninjas is enough to pique anyone's curiosity.

Participants must register their name and complete an entry form at the Krome Studios booth on Sunday 15th April between 10am ? 2.30pm and be wearing their costume. Costumes will be paraded and the winner will be announced on stage during CosPlay at…
(press release)
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In a business known for its cut-throat nature, Australian game developers are setting themselves apart from the rest of the highly competitive market by building a collaborative community. With less then 2,000 developers in the whole country, there is stronger affinity amongst the Australians that works toward the general good of their own.
In recent years, several of Australia?s game developers have teamed up on projects, lending their expertise…

AustralianIT has compared Sony's numbers with the other competing consoles, with the PS3 doing pretty well against the…
