This is so important. I had stars in my eyes for this industry for years before I finally got my break (which I attribute to networking). Whilst I really do love making video games, I don't love it enough to deal with the volatility and it's effects on the rest of my life.
I'm making a game! It's called Dino Egg Rescue, and it's a bit of an homage to the great 3D platform adventure games from the PS1 era. Jump n' bump your way around the house to find your missing eggs π₯ There's a few worm friends along the way who will help... For a small favour!
To the girlies out there who aren't applying for the job they want bc they don't have *all* the things the spec asks for...

*boots up katamari* King of the Universe: ahh my stupid ass son. Get your gay ass on earth and roll shit up for 20 minutes. OK. I hate you *the best song ever produced for a video game starts to play*
Over the last week I've been working on a little remake of the iconic golf level from Rugrats: Search for Reptar, one of my favourite classic games based on one of my favourite shows! πΌβ³
So far, I've managed to recreate the episode title animation for use in Unity, model & texture a colour-changing golf club & golf ball, & get a bare minimum game flow going. This is purely a hobby project so I have included some sounds & music from the show & original game.
Probably the best thing you'll see today.
