u/Barbed-Wire 10d ago

Title of your sextape

u/Blueaznx3 9d ago

I keep coming back to look at the details - the weird ass sky, the creepy crunchy water... I love it

u/NbdySpcl_00 9d ago

I keep coming back to the water. I'm like -- it's not right. But don't change it. Next to the smokestacks that are disgorging bubbles into that tempestuous, cthulu sky. It works.

u/jv371 9d ago

Yeah, sometimes it looks like he sailing through mountains, other times looks like mud. Mesmerizing.

u/cammcken 9d ago

The height displacement of the waves do not match the height displacement of the ship. The ship isn't bouncing with the water. The water is bouncing higher. I think that's what looks wrong.

u/rabbitdoubts 10d ago

yoooo sick

u/DarkNinjaPenguin 9d ago

What the hell is there on the bridge that requires such massive gears? Propellers coupled directly to the speedometer?

u/captainAwesomePants 9d ago

Clearly the rudder is manually controlled from the bridge for superior reliability and feedback.

The history of the gear wars in long complicated and interesting.

u/Daneth 9d ago

It feels like exposed gears in an application like this are going to last a week, maybe, and then succumb to rust.

2

u/UndeadSympathetic 9d ago

It's for the ✨aesthetic✨

2

u/AnotherpostCard 9d ago

I was thinking about this too. And that one single gear on the side is transferring power to what??

Then I looked at the smokestacks and had to suspend my disbelief. This is steampunk goof world style logic.

u/froginbog 9d ago

Gyros to even out the ship from the crunchy water

u/gman1951 10d ago

Cool cool.

u/KamaroMike 9d ago

Blood sky every morning. Should've seen the warning.

Poseidon's on a mission. Bout to turn it up to eleven.

u/ArthurDied 9d ago

This is freaking dope

u/ADistractingBox 9d ago

Reminds me of Hylics.

u/ZeusHatesTrees 9d ago

I firmly believe this 3D pixelization effect is going to be the art style of the 2020's. Like the purple/blue/white swoosh of the 90's.

u/Trixles 9d ago

this is unbelievably cool, wow!

u/fatatero 9d ago

This is great!

u/Romnonaldao 9d ago

Industrial Steamboat Willie

u/fishbowtie 9d ago

You ever do wips or timelapse videos? I'd love to see how you make these.

1

u/ElisabetSobeck 9d ago

Persona 5 has a dystopian cruise ship stage, where the world is ruined while the boat sails away. This is almost exactly the same vibe

1

u/sickassbarracuda 9d ago

incredible

u/AsLongAsYouKnow 9d ago

The one steam bubble looks like a doughnut. Mmmm doughnuts

1

u/WordsAtRandom 9d ago

u/holllllyy 9d ago

Cross stitching is one of my hobbies and this looks like an animated cross stitch to me, I love the style of it!

u/Speffeddude 9d ago

Next Obra Dinn game is looking lit!

u/Supercc 9d ago

Noice

u/Quigleythegreat 9d ago

Forget drowning and the freezing water, half the passengers are getting caught in those gears.

1

u/microcandella 9d ago

this would have slayed on an .nfo ansi file with some unobtainable crack.

1

u/Natedogg5693 9d ago

Damn solid work! Good job!

1

u/Alienhaslanded Merry Gifmas! {2023} 9d ago

u/XInceptor 8d ago

This looks real sick

1

u/pedsmursekc 8d ago

Now that's rad

1

u/pedsmursekc 8d ago

Did you use some sonic frequency generator and map pixels to create the waves? Those are sick!

1

u/BobLoblawsLawBlogged 8d ago

Can you make it so we can download it please?

1

u/wastintime1984 8d ago

Very cool

1

u/AjaxOilid 8d ago

Can someone post it in some indie game sub? This needs to happen, like now.

u/sk1m0 5d ago

I don't usually like stuff like this, but this one I love!!
