Art Asset Overview #31
May 9th, 2012
This video shows off a new level I'm working on while attempting to refine the visuals. I would like to achieve finished-looking levels in the next few weeks so that I can focus more on level design and less on art assets. I spent some time on new terrain textures and more experimentation with the detail objects system. I ...
Art Asset Overview #30
April 14th, 2012
I have been really busy this week with moving to San Francisco, but before I left I was able to finish a few art assets. For these sets I focused on making sure they worked well with the existing gameplay, and were more fully optimized so that I can put more models in each level. Be sure to watch it ...

I finally finished up the new dog model for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here). As David has added new features, the requirements for making new characters have gone up.

I have been working on terrain detail models for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here).

I am really looking forward to ...

I have been working on some levels for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here), as well as some new huts for a rabbit village set. I think these rabbit hut models will get a lot of use, so I worked hard on making sure they looked the way I wanted them to. I have a lot of ideas already on ...

I have been working on a few different things for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here) as I try to work out some of the smaller level design and character creation details. One of the more interesting things I have been doing is remaking Lugaru levels for Ovegrowth so we can better identify anything missing from the Overgrowth core gameplay ...
