Welcome back followers of the fearsome!
This week we are going over some of our crafty badguy Loki and his animations! I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a very good animator, luckily Nick has added a bunch of great tools that helps me get things done and every day I’m getting better!
here’s a few examples of our crafty little green guy flying around!
We noticed that giving our Loki all 10 digits being animating really gave him more character and let us do some really neat stuff with his puppet. we also started giving him a few different “Modes”. Loki turns into a glowing sphere and also a furry ball that sheds fur all over the place. This makes his entrances a lot of fun with a big poof of hair and camera shakes. He’s really coming together and we are excited for people to battle it out with this impressive imp!

Also we have to give a shout out to Northway Games! Local devs here that just shipped their amazing game Fantastic Contraption! Sarah and Colin Northway are super great developers that are creating amazing things in a totally new space. We also got to shout out Lindsay Jorgensen who is making the game look absolutely beautiful, Radial games who’s helping in Contraption’s development, and our very own Viking Bard Gordon McGladdery who is developing the entire soundscape for the game! Great work guys!
So if you have access to a Vive capable computer, be sure to check out the game and build something fantastic!

And that’s it for this week! We are getting closer and closer every day to our final destination so thanks for stopping by and checking out our stuff! Until next time, keep those Loki animations interesting!
