Hello I'm a french #gamedev art director 🎨 🎮 ✨

I provide pretty graphics & #shaders to tell stories with a gamepad. Most notably, I worked on #CaravanSandWitch & #road96. I've been shipping games since 2012 🎩

My interests: #lowpoly #birds #freeSoftware #math

I have a feeling that it’s hand-made in truckful
You remind me that I didn’t play No Rest For The Wicked, and I should, it’s gorgeous!

Haha no, it was made with UE5. See first picture. I tested Godot after the launch, tried to recreate the shaders, and played with the tools. I love Godot now, I’d like it to be the engine used for my next projects

Just played the demo of #Truckful a physics-based truck delivery game 🛻📦

Vistas along the road are gorgeous, look at them!
Fake perspective is fascinating, how was it made?

I’d like to talk a little bit about my process of creating the key art for Herdling
(thread: 1/10)

Key art of herdling. A painting with a herd of fantastical mountain animals called calicorns in the center. A mountain behind them and a girl in a red hoodie in front of them.

Getting back to writing blog posts! ✏️

It’s old content, a 4y.o twitter thread, lost when I fled the old place. I decided to bring it back to you.

Maybe you recall it? It was about stairs 🛕
