The long awaited trailer to Kilonova is here! I've been working on this project since fall of last year, and with a team of 20 other students we've brought it to life!
I did the creature designs for two of the enemies, Stellupi and Eversor, created all the rigs, did some proxy models and modeled the collars and stars inside them. I was also the lead animator and did many of the creature animations, especially the ones shown here in the trailer! I also provided the sounds for the stellupi which you can hear a little of in the trailer.
This past semester I stepped into the role of art director and I'm absolutely ecstatic about what our team managed to put together. Kilonova will be coming to Steam sometime next year, and I couldn't be more proud to have been part of this project.
Remaking the first level I ever made for Mighty Marbles with the new camera angles. Huge Change!
My marble run contraption game, Mighty Marbles is going into early access Jan 9 2024. It based on classic games like screwball scramble and mouse trap. I would love for you to consider wishlisting now https://store.steampowered.com/app/2430310/Mighty_Marbles/
Fun fact: Akabaka made this trailer without actually "animating" anything
I'd love to go in-depth on the "making of" when I have some time. He used limited animation techniques to mimic the effect of motion without having to draw so many individual images. Aka is a self-taught artist and had not made any animations before the first Sucker for love trailer. Really wanted to replicate the feel of a classic anime op or trailer, so had to get creative
He used the same techniques in his other two trailers, taking cues from other openings like this Keep Your Hands Off Eiziken op and this Candyman trailer.
Parfum Nostalgique is a kinetic visual novel series that details a small but eventful window of time in the life of 265 year-old therapist-by-day, dom-by-night vampire, Valdemar Andressen.
A story of friendship, tragedy, and unconditional love that explores the conflict between moral personhood and the human necessity of wearing different masks, Parfum Nostalgique is a coming of age for those who have already come of age, or what some would call a “midlife crisis."
Strap in for a wild ride of twists, turns, and tears accompanied by a vintage shoujo manga-inspired art, an original soundtrack, and a robust cast of voice actors!

Dev note -
It feels important to mention that this is a tribute game for the song Majesty by False Noise, so please go look at his stuff if you liked it. The game also features two new original tracks by the great @salutanisorkonus ! I will link them when they are uploaded.
I've been working on this game nonstop for 3 months, and it is my first real fully-realized game release. I hope you have as much fun with it as I did making it, and thanks for playing!
Look at this! If you like cozy games this is the game for you! This is a demo of Project Shoreline, clean the environment as a little character called Muri.
