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.
Gamespy has some coverage of Pandemic's Destroy All Humans from the E3 conference...
"One of this title's most impressive assets is its use of physics. Levitating and manipuliting animals, humans, or cars looks amazing. They can be hurled into other objects, affecting them as well. The world seems very open-ended, with plenty to interact with. Every human has a funny thought to read in their minds, and endless potential with their helpless carbon-based bodies.

Homelanfed has a short article on their impression of the multiplayer aspect of Tribes: Vengeance...
"Our brief time with multiplayer Tribes: Vengeance made us use of one thing; even though the Tribes series is with a new developer, Irrational Games is already fashioning the gameplay to something that long time Tribes players will both enjoy and recognize. The game still has several months in development in front of it and because of this we think that Vengeance will turn out to be a worthy…
