I love what I do. I actually love the work I’m doing for my clients but I’ve made a promise to work on game design every day. I guess doing UI for a client is almost game design right?
So Kye Kye dropped their new album and it’s dreamy and wonderful. It’s called Fantasize and On 1st listen through it’s a bit hit and miss but that is usually a good sign of an album that will stretch you.
Support them! Itunes
Oh the irony. I want to work on this project but for the last 2 nights I’ve been working for a client on UI for a museum. It’s a fun project that will teach me so much more about UI and what systems to use and set up. Anyway this song has been helping me get through the things.
Started doing the texturing today while continuing up some modeling.
For those interested I am using a “vertex” shader look but done with a simple 64×64 texture tile. Using the engines bilinear filter it creates some wonderful graduations. The texture tile has a normal colour and then a highlighted version of it above and then a shadow version below it. This means I can shift the faces uv’s up and down depending if I want it to be in light or it darkness.

Tonight saw me adding more detail to the model. Very inspired by that 50s / 60s style and really want to fuse that with 80s / 90s computer era. Suggested space with positive and negative shapes.
I’ve started blocking out the robot plant for game 2 for playing games with my heart. It has a few more nights left into it but it’s getting there.
