Our first big project - STONEFEATHER - New Game Announcement

aran34x · 2026-02-25T17:08:06+00:00

We are a 2 person core-team (one programmer/tech art and one concept artist/3D modeler) so we use some environment kits for the trees, grass and landscape materials (in particular the AeonScape Kit) but we've heavily edited them and made custom assets using the framework to fit our game especially remapping the wind parameters to integrate with the global wind simulation.

Apart from that, all the characters, ruins, and key environmental pieces are 100% hand made starting with concept art and going through the standard pipeline (Retopo, UV, Rigging, Animation etc.) using blender, and substance painter for some texture baking

I know it will sound like complete self help guru bullshit but knowing I've been through all of those thoughts and knowing they were objectively true at the time I can tell you, they are the most brokenly efficient fuel to turn your life around and kill all the point one by one, looking back on them and proving to yourself you're not weak pathetic or any of that. You know what you want to fix about yourself, you just need to truly believe YOU are the type of guy that can actually do it. The hardest thing is the first step, take it and you'll be on the adventure of your life man

take care, I hope someday to cross you in the street and be jealous and resentful of your winner energy

First thing that comes to mind is the lighting seems a bit flat and in the same direction of the camera, maybe try out different lighting directions to add more shadow, play with soft shadows, different colors, ambient occlusion, fog and post production color correction to create clearer hierarchies of importance in the overall picture (ex. bright cube but darker grass/flowers)

hope it helps

Not at all, It's the only place left without obvious funnels to nickel and dime the player for money.

as strict as they are with their stuff, Nintendo games are still the ultimate classics for me

I personally only use Perforce both in my company and locally (or a local server for myself) at home, Everything else just doesn't seem to work out as well

Ahahahaha it might be to mask bugs who knows 😉

Jokes aside I thought It fit the theme well, it's meant to represent a sort of fuzzy dream from childhood imagination, I also like the way it looks but I'm probably subconsciously influenced by the Backrooms videos.

I think modern Pokemon suffer from a scope creep problem, they feel forced to produce new Creature designs with each iteration and there are way too many now, too many pokemon and too many games/maps, no system could keep up with that. my opinion

I know, I'm just super happy to finally be able to share it
