I’ve recently decided to start a small devlog series on itch.io to share my progress, both old and new, the ups and downs, and that will eventually lead up to my first demo release. I’ve already started on the second entry, but got interrupted by my birthday. 😅

I took again a bit longer, but as I mentioned in my previous post, I’ve now created a new Discord server for my projects. It’s still pretty empty 😅, but I’m currently working on restoring everything the old server had. 😊 💙

After years of ups & downs, my previous passion project Liquidation, a multiplayer RTS now under new leadership is finally seeing the light of day! I’m so glad the time and effort I poured into this little love letter to the RTS genre wasn’t in vain. 😭💙

Here's some more #WIP #texturing! Starting to add linework and blocking in some shading.

Timelapse of about 40 mins of work after the initial turnaround.

We use #3DCoat and #Photoshop for texturing.

A new wip. Maybe good for a title screen theme?

I think my last horse-related clip was from back when my little game still had tank controls. I'm still not completely satisfied with it (still a lot to improve 😭), but at least I no longer regret adding sprinting, climbing, gliding, flying, and jumping to the game. 😅

Since I didn’t need to stay in a hospital since New Year, I decided to be productive and make the automata violinist Ida playable for my upcoming little demo. It is still super rough around the edges 😓, but unlike others, she has the ability to manipulate the time of day. ✨

I tried a while ago to unify the animations of the chibi models with those of their non-chibi counterparts to ensure the personality comes across consistently. 😅

Anyway, as always, I hope you all are having a good day! ✨

Man, that is so awful! I was wondering what happened to the server. I know you have the full support of your community if you decide to rebuild (which I personally hope you do haha)

I'm currently doing some updates and changes to the dialogue UI, and I think it's already looking a bit better compared to what I had before. A small success story for myself for once. 😅

I hope you all are having a wonderful day!

Another gimmick feature that I added a while ago, you can now enter/drive vehicles with your party members/love interest.
