One of the 3D artists gave me a quick peak at what he was working on for an upcoming game! It was so awesome and I’m super excited about it! The little sneak I got was of a female character in a sitting position, and he showed me her animated fidgets. A fidget is a […]

I’ve got a few things March related to share with you today. With this being the last week to purchase The Haunting of Castle Malloy for 25% off, we created a screen saver for it. (This is today’s free download.) Download it here. It’s Irish month, and Sonny Joon thought it would be nice to […]
