    Greetings Everyone, I've created and uploaded more seamless wood textures for your projects. They're 100% free to use with attribution, just like my thousands of other images. You can download them here: https://soundimage.org/txr-wood-fantasy/ https://soundimage.org/txr-wood-seamless/ Ogg GAME MUSIC MEGA PACK Don't forget to to check out my Ogg Game Music Mega Pack which enables you to download all of my 1400+ game music tracks at once in higher-quality Ogg format. A HUGE time saver. Plus: Ogg tracks loop better in game engines...and they sound more rich and full (like my original WAV recordings) but are much much smaller in size than WAV files...perfect for games. Here's the link: https://soundimage.org/ogg-game-music-mega-pack/ I sincerely hope some of my assets are helpful in your creations...feel free to let me know! :-)

  4. Designer Notes 88: Caroline Marchal - Part 2 In this episode, Soren interviews veteran game designer Caroline Marchal, best known for her work on Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, and As Dusk Falls.

This episode was recorded on September 6, 2024. Games discussed: Heavy Rain, Beyond Two Souls, As Dusk Fall, Old World, the Sorcery! series Listen on the Episode Page Listen on Soundcloud Listen in iTunes

    Very experimental album. He's got great videos on how he made each song. I guarantee the techniques are a lot weirder than you would think.

  11. Most of my creature designs rely on reference, even when I’m aiming for something completely original or fantastical. Using references helps me channel a specific mood, energy, or vibe into the creature, almost like casting the right actor for a role. It’s kind of a cheat code, one that helps make the creature more believable and avoids the trap of creating an “inside joke” only I would get. In these sci-fi designs, I pulled from insects, my own biases, and natural elements to form the biology of something alien. - Find more behind-the-scenes shots, free insights, and tutorials here: https://www.menogcreative.com/creature-design

This episode was recorded on September 6, 2024.

  18. Many of my character concept art pieces include assets that I've rarely showcased individually. With my sci-fi character designs, most of them feature a robotic implant of some sort. Arms like these start from a free base mesh, a normal human arm, which I then sculpt on top by re-skinning it as hard-surface, and converting all the human joints, fingers, and bending parts into screws, pistons, and ball joints. Essentially, I re-imagine the human body as a machine. Find more behind-the-scenes shots and tutorials here: www.menogcreative.com/scifi-props
