Fresh from the Live Stream, new VFX and animation!
Getting the sound waves looking right took a while but worth it!

Stylised animation and Real Time VFX for the ability of my new unit!

Is it explosive enough? :)

I replaced conventional mana with something else in my RPG!

I'd love to hear your thoughts :)

I think I'm almost there, missing the final climax. How would you end the vfx?

Any UI tips ? That's after
- adding the background
- a trail when the pixels are moving fast
- Changing the button outline animation when it's hovered or not
- Adding a small movement when hovered

Trying to push this character more toward a ballerina silhouette.
Left or right: which reads better?

Almost done with animating all actions for the new unit of my Tactical RPG. Feedback very much appreciated!

Can you tell it's dripping ink while it walks? :)

I'm making the "back" side of my unit, which do you think is better, A or B?
(Or any feedback in general would be really appreciated :D)

From scribbles to actual AI, created a simple behaviour tree with custom re-usable nodes for my bloodthirsty new assassin unit!

Small look at initial design for the AI of my latest unit, or maybe
scribbles of a mad man? :D
