I am Game Designer, 3D environment and character artist, technical artist and programmer.
Horror will always have a special place in my heart.

I've been working on my own engine for a while now, creating lots of really cool features for it.

Nothing is more fun than playing with physics!

Sharing a preview of my first tutorial focused on generalist technical artists.

The goal is to demonstrate the complete real-time pipeline... from asset creation to shaders, FX, and final cinematic output.

This first tutorial focuses on building a Lightsaber using Blender, Substance Painter, and Unity.

Workflow:
High Poly → Low Poly → Baking & Texturing → Engine Integration → Shaders → Animation → Cinematics

This is the first step toward a series where I plan to explore and recreate iconic effects, breaking down both the artistic and technical workflows.

Creating my first tutorial: Luke Skywalker's lightsaber. I want to show the entire process from asset creation all the way to final render, FX, and shaders.

My goal with the tutorials is to help people interested in each aspect of the game dev pipeline, from art to generalist technical artist.

It will show High Poly - Low Poly - UV - Texturing - Engine - Shader Creation - Lighting - Unity's Cinematic Timeline.

This is a work in progress of the final render.

@hoje_no Inacreditável como nada do Irã contra Israel/EUA é real.
Desde pinturas no chão até IA e vídeos antigos.

Eu achei que eles causariam muito mais danos. Se precisam postar tanta IA é porque o negócio tá MUITO ruim. Eles não têm quase nenhuma vitória.

@hoje_no Como assim? Putin está preparando a mais pesada notinha de repúdio da história. O OCIDENTE CAIRÁ APÓS A NOTINHA DE REPÚDIO!

@Capital_Cortez @hoje_no @grok Eles provavelmente se renderam!

@hoje_no Isso sim é uma operação militar especial :D

Built a small 1-Bit game in one week using UE5.
Always wanted to try Unreal’s multiplayer, and I also played around with some of the 2D tools inside the engine.
Super fun little project!

Created the interior of the tunnels!

@rotub Much better! But it would be cool to change mesh mid spin, it is swapping before the animation start.

[RenatoAruffo GameDev @RenatoAruffo]

@rotub @JamesBerkelmans YES, less smoke looks great!

Remake of my 2010 horror game comparison.
This was a Flash version exported using Unity at the time.

Recreating my 2010 game, The Lost Souls.
Finished modeling/texturing the first area.

This WebGL version uses shader techniques for crisp texture details.
All textures are 256–512 max.

@clemmygames I've reskinned my previous Online Russian Roulette game with robots and cyberpunk theme. It was being banned everywhere due to the theme and violence. But it is OK with Robots, now it is being accepted.

I've created a WebGL version on Crazy Games:

Play Free WebGL Online Robots Royale!
A fast - paced, turn - based shooter roulette.

Reskinned my previous game with robots and released it on @CrazygamescomI . It is a multiplayer online turn based shooter.
Check it out :)

WIP of an old character I was working a few years ago. The Emperor of Fire, there will be lots of nice shaders for the hair and beard. Getting back to finish this project!

Tired of my game being blocked or banned for the violence, I'm testing a full "rebrand", replacing people with robots, creating an color editor, and adding robot "dismemberment ". It's a work in progress. Next, I'll add cool effects for the destruction.
