Hey! I'm Felix (he/him)
I'm a game design student from Germany. I love pixelart, 3d art and mainly work in unity.
Currently obsessed with shaders!

I animated the blade along a curve in blender but I couldn't figure out how to get that animation into unity.

How important is it that gears and mechanical parts make sense?

I wanted to do a post for the #swordtember automaton prompt but damn, this is taking longer than expected. Animating all the moving parts so they look correct takes forever but its sooo worth it :)
now its time for textures and shaders^^

Here's a closeup of the shell with the shader, only the texture and the shader without the pearl effect. If you look closely you can see it sparkling on the edges!

A bit late to the party but here's my art for the
#swordtember - Day 1 - Shell!
The pearl effect was a happy accident and i really like it like this!

I feel like this is the best i can do so far. I tried to hide the pixelated nature of a "height to normal"-map by adding a detail normal map on top of my texture. For a better footprint shape I'd probably need to add the movement into the animation directly or figure out a different placement method

Update on my Footsteps! They now not only go down but displace the ground around it a bit.
Gotta tweak the shape a bit and work on the ground texture next.

Too exited not to share^^ working on a shader for footsteps and have this guy here walking down my scene leaving marks on the floor c:

Today I worked on a fullscreen shader to create a rough paper effect and a sketchy outline. Feels nice to see myself improve from two weeks ago when outlines where still a mystery. Gotta work on the presentation a bit i think.

I made a pond shader! It uses the parallax occlusion mapping node in #unity to create the depth effect. These are version one and two of the shader, let me know if you have some feedback!

I made a little scene of a jester mouse in a forest cave! I`m new to 3D animation and rigging but i made the whole character from scratch (except the outline) Sounds are from Pixabay.com #gamedev #gameart #art #3D

Working a bit on Texturing 3D Objects so that they look 2D.
Left one is Base Color Textures + a toon shader
Middle is unlit with shadows painted in the Albedo map and the right one is just a recolor with a bit of tweaking
Left and middle also have an Outline Asset.

!Flashing lights (~10sec after rain starts)! I am finally done with my little project adding Normal Maps to Unity 2D! I made a few samples for time of day and weather effects to show off the perks of this workflow. I think it looks really cool! #gamedev #gameart soundeffects are from pixabay.com

Update on my Sprites with Normal Maps. I made a small island with a painted normal map. If the ground itself has a normal map the light doesn't make much sense but if you remove the normal map it looks really nice. Next step is a small scene to really show what I've learned!

The lightsource is directly on the ground of the platform. See how the wall seems lit properly but the ground is just in shadow at a certain point? I think it would work though if the ground just does not have a normal map attached to it.

Playing around with some normal maps on sprites. It's a bit of work but the results look really cool. Sadly I don't think this is really useful in an isometric game, since in 2D space behind and on top of the object is basically the same :(

Here are a few screenshots of my current big game project. My focus is on the environment design. It's coming together nicely, since I started focussing on the placement and making things look neat.
I've been working on for this semester and have time until the 15th.
