That would require me make some particles and you know art is not my strong point 😂
Point taken though.

Probably going to need that to line up a suspension

Doing a fun experiment in GZDoom, er UZDoom or whatever. Have some rigidbody kart physics.

It's super bouncy because it's more fun to show off that way.

Technically all of the checks could all be done with one actor, but you would still need more actors to represent the wheels visually.
And I secretly want to do a 6 wheeled vehicle for fun.

Each wheel is an actor that simulates the suspension force and does the collision checks. The spring forces are applied to the main body which converts everything back to standard forces and euler rotations.

I was feeling those Stunt Race FX vibes when recording that. Such a ridiculously tall suspension for no reason.

Yeah it's great! This is not an entirely new physics system though just a big ol' fudge against the existing one! There is still a AABB in the middle there taking all of the forces and moving the actor.

It's really fun how much you can get away with with some trickery.

You could skip the AI step and just steal the art from people you follow. I hear all the big boys are doing it these days.

Gross.
Instead of reading the warning signs, Silicon Valley ran full tilt into creating a modern world that cultivates and nurtures neurosis, addiction and mental illness; replacing the world of the real with a universe of fake. Driving people from their relationships, hobbies and careers.

Not only is it a great composition with a dynamic pose, but the added text commenting on Selaco's meta gameplay was a nice touch. We recall that being added later as a resubmission.

Great work!

This was definitely one of my favourite fan arts, capturing that “protect Wilson at all costs” vibe.

WILSON!

We were pleasantly surprised by how often Wilson showed up across submissions; we loved seeing him so often! This piece captures the action of Selaco wonderfully, especially for those brave enough to escort Wilson to safety

This piece is fantastic! We love the striking reds, the contrast on Dawn and that stylish flair throughout. We've always wanted to explore a more stylized direction in our promotional art and this felt incredibly inspiring.

Congratulations!
