THIS IS SO RAD

Oh gosh. It's an embarrassment of nublars.

I would very much like a 3d print of that dot gobbler.

I have been tasked with creating a Dr. Breckon for this game. I have done the geometry, now I need to throw a quick facial rig in there to get it moving.

Oh sweet, a thread wherein I can post the models I've been working on. Yeah I made these assets for Henke's game! They still need some textures put on them though. Also I had some flipped normals on the tire geometry which appear to be visible in the first gif, in that there's parts of the tires that are transparent where they should not be.

That's a pretty sweet lookin' nublar, dude

The train cars look like train cars!

Added my details!

I'm so impressed by how great this already looks that I'm angry.

This looks pretty neat! An indie-game portfolio-sharing social network, like something between Moddb and Instagram. From the site: I have a handful of invites if anyone wants one! And I am on the service as root, if you can believe it

The pokemon trainer's club newsletter that went out yesterday, with Darkrai in the headline, should have the codes for the legendary bird trio. Got mine today!

After posting my comment I googled and discovered that babywalling is not specific to Idle Thumbs, I only thought it was because this was my first exposure to the term, as I'm not a Sims player. So it makes sense that it wouldn't have been incorporated into the lexicon.

I'm binging on old idle thumbs episodes and just listened to this one and I'm really curious as to how 'babywalling' seems to have fell off as a persistent injoke in the idle thumbs canon, as opposed to the persistence of stuff like baboo, bird noise, the wizard, Congrats Nick, etc. Babywalling should have had more legs than it did.

This game looks rad!

I refuse to believe this title isn't a deliberate attempt to stock the wizard jam fishing pool.

Everyone's a winner, we're making our fame Bona fide hustler making my name

I've kind of started to wonder if Wizard Jam has had an impact on the Idle Thumbs podcast network naming convention, especially now that all shows are on the table.

Toby Fox addressed the harrassment issue today -

You guys mentioned the possibility of doing an all-singing, all-dancing binge stream of the completed works of Wizard Jams past and pending, and then immediately dismissed the idea. Instead of doing that, maybe in the lead-up to wizard jam 2016 you might consider doing streams of games from previous wizard jams? (wizards jam??)

Blade Ballet By: Dreamsail Games Available: Steam and PS4, summer 2016 Synopsis: Blocky little player-controlled robots spin around and hit each other with glowy swords. A buddy of mine who used to do art for Insomniac went and founded his own studio and this is their first baby and I'm very excited for them.

This essay's been wandering around tumblr today. A $1000 backer to the kickstarter made an arrangement to have his fursona included in the game as his backer reward, and within a week chanbros discovered who he was and found his fetish art related to the character and have been hassling him about it since, and he talks about how that's been affecting him and his relationship with the game here -

Between yesterday and today I think I've watched that trailer like twenty times. So psyched. SO psyched.

EDIT: I got two titles on my docket to make assets for, so I'm probably full up for now, but I'll update this post if I clear my plate in time for more. I would like to do 3d assets for any team that wants them because I want to Become Good at making 3d assets for unity or whatever engine whoever winds up using. I know my way around zbrush, maya, and substance painter, but actually making assets that are placed in a game is a barrier I have not yet broken. (Actually I think what I may wind up doing is making a 3d asset wishlist thread for folks to throw their requests into and just crank out as many as I can each evening during the jam) Contact me: via forum private message, on the slack as @root, or email [email protected] Timezone: Pacific And here's some old half-finished stuff since I nearly never bring anything all the way through to finished -

I ordered some un-hemmed pants from the internet and hemmed them myself and it filled me with a dramatically disproportionate sense of accomplishment and pride in my ability to handle my shit like an adult.

I can't wait to put greasy french fry fingerprints all OVER that pretty, glossy gamepad.
