Hopefully, the above pictures came through for you, or this wont make much sense. I've been working on my dice game, and it is nearly completed. However, as I test it out on different platforms, I notice that it doesn't look the same. In …

So, as I near completion of my 3D dice game, I ran into several small issues that I thought I would share here, since they all apply to exporting your game. Of course, as you go along, if you are making a cross platform game, you occasionally need to export …

Well, I suppose "roll" would be a more popular dice game term, but spin is actually more accurate in this case! I'm actually rotating the dice in a spin maneuver, and having them fall on the table, rather than rolling them across it from an angle or the side.

So, now that I've completed BornCG's great 3D game tutorial, I'm ready to set out on my own! Of course, I already mentioned what the game would be about, it is a remake of the classic "Ship, Captain, and Crew" dice game. I've already made a 2D version of this …

Now that I've completed the low poly course from Udemy, I'm ready to start using my fledgling, but newfound skills in some form of application. That said, the most fun and easiest way that I can imagine using 3D models is in some kind of game. The question is, what …

At work the other day, I got the opportunity to teach a class on inductance and resonance in relation to electronic circuits. So of course, I thought a tesla coil would be the most fun visual instrument to instruct with.

Of course, the inexpensive kit I bought off of Amazon …
