Re: What makes an Interesting Exploration game?
You say art and unique landmarks... but you have to look deeper than that. By deeper I mean whats really occurring within the player. What you are looking for is "emotional response". Once you find out what triggers an emotional response, then the rest is easy. One way to trigger an emotional response, and it pretty much… -
Re: [New portfolio] Lo
Alright, I've got a few things: First: The site looks great - clean, simple, effective. And the models... I'll start with the one I have the biggest problem with - The shark It looks like a 30-60 minute speed model that someone slapped some poly paint on and called it finished...

Re: FAILED: Art Test!
can you put the img reference? or you can't disclose that? Ok, right from the bat, your brick is indeed flat. You don't have decals on it, or try to break up that brown color a lot. Bricks are not the same. Grime and stains from rain collect on corners, or next to windows. Specially if there is metal around it. There are… -
Re: The worst time to graduate?
Well I had a Creative Director who would ask a question in an interview. "Are you a gamer who wants to develop games, or a developer who likes to work on games?" He was asking about priorities. He didn't want gamers because the #1 thing in their life was playing games not developing or refining the skills he needed them to… -

Currently used naming scheme allows for quick identification while consisting of only three… -
Re: Artists who left a comfortable position to pursue something ‘bigger’, was the grass greener?
Pirax said: Was the risk worth it in the end? Yes. It was worth it. Do I have any regrets about it? Yes. I wish I did some of that sooner. Did the place I moved to have a positive impact? Yes. I don't mind rambling about my past jobs. Removing the freelance gigs, I had like 4-5 employers, as an employee. After my… -
Re: Anyone else here not play any video games?
I think we are still in an infancy that might be accelerated with the billions invested in VR and the prevalence of Indie development. Where artists might to a lesser degree see themselves as cogs in the machinery. Where they do not aspire to be 3d modelers, Texture Artists, Animators or some other combination of visual… -
Re: What has the games industry been like for you?
Not that its of much consequence but I will throw a post up too Background: I was in toy soldiers for just over 13 years and have been in the games industry for nearly 3 years. My first gig in the games industry was as a Jr character artist at Eurocom (rip) after that, a straight character gig at Splash Damage, and I now…
