Heads-up that the Crescent County Kickstarter is ending soon!
@electricsaint.bsky.social

They are very close to their final stretch goal of £90'000.
This means they will reach 200% of their funded goal AND are adding voice acting into the game.

I had so much fun making this Jetpack game project through @druidmechanics.bsky.social's course.

The focus was to learn advanced blueprint techniques and platformer mechanics in #UnrealEngine.

It's always fun to come up with ways to lean into the character design and anatomy of a creature.

New creature in Edenfall - our beloved Trilotl!

It was challenging animating flowy tentacles but super fun to see the final result in game.
