Was asked how I went about the swirls for Gatekeeper Galio's recall VFX swooshies. Hopefully this helps a bit! Note on the panning of the texture: I keyed the scroll speed in our game engine to achieve the slow down effect at the beginning.

Piece of Galio's Q tornado. Only things missing is the erosion over lifetime that would eat away at the scrolling texture just before it hit the top of the mesh you can see in the top 2 sections, as well as a soft fade at the center of the mesh using vertex colors.

Shadow Evelynn R VFX. This one was super fun play with timing: blast everything at the start is a sure way to make an impacftul ability. Lots of cutting corners and cheating, like the bats which look silly when paused, but in motion you wouldn't notice.

Galio Passive VFX. The goal of this ability was to maintain a stylized, almost "anime" look while communicating AOE of damage. Sometimes a single element is all it takes to give an effect a style. The ring mesh on the right center was all this needed.

Excited to show some of my VFX work from the soon to be released Nunu! Everyone on the team really pulled together on this one to make something special. If you haven't seen it, check out his release trailer! 💙💙

This is the trailer that got me to quit my job at Riot and move across the world to work on a silly bean game early March 2020.
Still think it's the best IP of this generation. Nothing else is close 😤🔥

tosses 100-players together online through escalating rounds of hyperactive mayhem until only one victor remains!

@PlayStation
4 and PC in 2020!
Small look at Project Katarina's E VFX. This one's pretty simple: long trail, a few geo rings, and some sprites. All sharing similar textures to rest of Project line which emphasizes high value/saturation, and angular rectangle shapes.

I you are BIPOC, LGBTQ or in a marginalized group:
This is what you'll be creating by week 5 of the free Intro to stylized VFX course!
No 3D experience needed beforehand. Just a computer that can run basic games!
Discord server with lessons/homework open starting next week!
Happy to hear people are liking this background! I was lucky to get to work on it in Satellite Scramble - now available in your creative rounds!
Go check it out! 🌌👀
I've been doing live service game development for 8 years now (League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics, Fall Guys) and I think a major underrated factor that keeps these games going is player feedback. If you have an opinion, an issue with the game, or suggestion, don't hold it back
Finding myself staying up late to play Explore. Absolutely lovely game mode.
Lots of hanging out with beans in levels (especially themed/hub-esque levels!), relaxing, emoting, exploring, playing catch, piggybacking. It's connecting with other beans that I find meaningful and fun
🤩 SURVIVAL UPDATE / FEB 28 🤩
It's time to make a splash (into slime) - from tomorrow you'll be able to create your own Survival Rounds in Creative! The party doesn't stop there, we're also adding new Power Ups, hex tiles, elimination zones, blast balls and more!
That's a good looking squad! Also... check out the new victory I got to help out on! I kitbashed together the background + vfx + lighting for this one!

Oof well, this one has stamped into it my old @ name, so please forgive the rebranding but yeah this collection was peak twitter for me lol
Reply or QRT with your most popular art
Apparently this collection of shader effects from 2018 was my peak here on twitter :V Maybe I should go back to basics.
I've asked before but I want to see if there are new rounds I've not seen - what are the most beautifully crafted rounds in the last year of creative? With the whole package - design and art.
Only post other peoples rounds. Post as many as you like. 👀
The video of the Thor victory is based off of one of our existing costumes with a skeleton - remember these victories need to be IP approved so we need to pretend fall guys is cuddly.
...but we all know the dark truth behind those beany eyes...
If any
#blackgamedevs
(new, or junior) out there want to build up their stylized VFX for games portfolios I'm taking on a couple mentees for weekly meetups. I've worked on league of legends, TFT, and on
@FallGuysGame
now.
DM or reply here! Also open to general portfolio review.
If this is you, take a step away. Put the game down and reprioritize.
We're not going anywhere and will be there when that thing you should actually be doing is done.
(Ok back to sleep for me) 💙
This Among Us concurrent players graph is insane
Release November 2018 on Steam
First year CCU average of ~20 players
Finally hit peak 1k CCU a year and a half after release
Now sitting consistently at +300k CCU
🤯🤯🤯
If you have bugs post them and I can follow up with the team to see if we have them logged. Even ones you think we surely have seen...
I don't control when we prioritize things but happy to increase visibility on issues.

acquire the carriable boom blaster from the carry object spawner and blast through anything you see, just don't hurt yourself!
Overlap and budget increase was the team's best change since creative launch. Love seeing the stuff players can make now
Lovely colour choices in this one ✨

What an incredible year we've had in the Blunderdome!
Join us as we look back on the year that turned beans into builders and look forward to a huge 2024!
You can actually see it from the UK tonight through quite a bit of light pollution. Wasn't on my checklist today to see the Aurora for the first time in my life just from my flat 😳
