ELA Games combines hero-focused animation, environmental storytelling, and polished audiovisual pacing to create a modern adventure experience that feels immersive and continuously evolving throughout the reels. A few creative elements that stand out: 🌿 Cinematic jungle expedition atmosphere 🎞️ Hero-driven animation systems ✨ Progression-focused feature presentation 🔊 Immersive adventure-inspired sound design 🗿 Strong environmental storytelling and pacing The result is a visually engaging modern adventure slot where exploration, atmosphere, and escalating gameplay progression work together to create a cohesive treasure-hunting experience. 🎮 Legacy of Lost Gold 🎮 Studio: ELA Games Full review in comments. #iGamity #iGaming #SlotArt #GameReview #ELAGames #AdventureSlots #GameArt #AnimationDesign

One of my favorite parts of early development is the moment when a fight system starts to *feel* right, not just look right. Working on "Firva", I had the chance to collaborate closely with our combat designer to prototype combat rhythm and timing using existing animation packages. Instead of building everything from scratch, we analyzed and adapted ready-made assets to quickly discover what kind of animation language the fight system needed. The result? We got there more than 2x faster than a traditional approach, and more importantly, we understood the rhythm of our combat before committing to full production. In the video below (previewed inside Maya), I’m breaking down how we structured each combo into three core phases: → Anticipation — the wind-up that telegraphs intent → Action — the strike itself → Parry Window — the moment the player has to react and counter This timing framework became the foundation of our entire fight system, later implemented in Unity. Happy to finally share a piece of it. Done Games Reza Sajjady #GameAnimation #CombatDesign #GameDev #AnimationBreakdown #Firwa #Maya #Unity

I'm a big fan of Darksiders games. With Darksiders 4 on the horizon, I couldn't resist animating my favorite Horseman: The Pale Rider. In this video, I’m breaking down my 2D workflow in Mohoanimation software.

I am very excited to announce that Ozone Story Tech Subdivs for Unreal Engine has officially launched! Any Skeletal Mesh can now be converted to an Ozone Subdiv... allowing traditional Film / TV modeling and rigging subdivision surface workflows to work directly in engine. Some key wins: 1-1 asset conversion from traditional subdiv pipelines into engine for rendering. No modeling changes required. Resolution independent assets, allowing for progressive quality adjustment as needed. LOD forward vs traditional subtractive LODs. Subdiv meshes are less dense which makes them lighter on disk, faster to load and much easier to model, rig and art direct. 4-16x fewer vertices need to be managed. And much more :) If you are an Animation or Game Studio using Unreal Game Engine... download, try and buy here: https://lnkd.in/gD_eeNXp Rob Di Figlia Ben Minall Chase Cooper Fredrik Nilsson Duncan Burbidge Paul Doyle William Vaughan Vaishak Purushothaman Douglas Bell Quentin Defrance Reel FX Animation Ryan McNeely Eric Soulvie Jason Bickerstaff Brad Clark Atomic Cartoons Mark Andrews Daniel Urbach Brian Rausch Henning Sanden

A high-poly sculpt of Ellie had around 10 million triangles. The version running in The Last of Us Part II uses 30,000. That difference is retopology. The stage where every game character is rebuilt from scratch, not to look better, but to function. Clean topology is what allows a character to deform correctly in animation, perform within hardware budgets, and integrate cleanly into the engine pipeline. It is one of the most time-consuming stages in character production. It requires deep technical knowledge and directly affects every stage that comes after it. And players never see it. At Kevuru Games we understand that the most critical work in character art is often the work that is completely invisible in the final result. Getting it right from the start is what separates characters that hold up in production from ones that create problems at every downstream stage. How many people on your team actually understand what retopology involves? #3dcharacterart #gamedev #characterart #gameart #characterdesign #3dcharacter #gameartoutsourcing #aaagames #fullcyclegamedevelopment #kevurugames #hire3dartists #gameartstudio

The "floating hand" problem of two-hand weapon animations breaks immersion and looks like a bug. UnrealEngine's animation blueprint makes it easy to apply IK to an arm, so it works beautifully in-game. Hint #1: Apply Two-bone IK to the right arm as well, to better stabilize the system. Hint #2: Feed the IK(s) Alpha (interpolation) with a float variable, then after you switch to the weapon, interpolate that variable along time (0.5s usually works) for a smoother transition. Epic Games Vertex School
