Game Development Community

So long, and a small gift.

I am leaving. Not only this awesome community but game development in general. I want to get back to my roots and enjoy painting again. Is that simple...

I have a Wacom since 2007 and never really got to use it at it's full potential. I almost forgot how to draw for the love of God! What is this? I am not leaving the game development because of it, I am doing so in favor of something else not something better; Maybe not better, not so fun and tedious but at times you need to move on. And I am doing so.

As a small gift, I packaged all my stuff and I am releasing it for the price of 1 pack: 25 USD. It's not going to get me rich but it's gonna help keep the site up for a month or two. Or something.

I removed all game related stuff from Kubkinetik.com store so you'll want to send me a simple email (apparatus@kubkinetik.com) to receive the paypal order for this MegaPack in your inbox. After the payment is complete, you get the download link.

Here's what you'll get for 25 greenbacks:

Bridge Pack
Environment Guide
Interior Guide ~ textures issue fixed
Props Pack
Kaboom Pack
Environment Pack
Doors Pack
Mappkit Vintage ~ my first pack, yay!.
Game Workshop ~ example game with mount option for vehicles, weapon mounted to vehicles and more; placeholder art for catapult vehicles and breaking stuff (free resource)
Textures Pack ~ (free resource)

I have a TON of unreleased stuff, maybe at some point when I will clean up my drive I will make another resource with that. For now, 1.9 G of data is enough for my traffic quota on Kubkinetik.com

If you're into 2d stuff and want some brushes or resources of that kind, drop by Kubkinetik now and then as I am adding stuff almost every day. It's scarce now, but is growing.

Email sent, you could always do concept art. A lot do it with the painting approach.

I've always enjoyed reading your blogs and it was immediately evident to me that you are a very talented artist. I think it's safe to say that I have followed your blogs closer than I have followed anyone elses..

It's been a pleasure having you in the community; you will be missed!

Good luck in your future endeavours, and keep inspiring others as you have inspired me (and, undoubtedly, many others here)!

It's so sad to see you go, but you'll always be welcome anytime you change your mind.

You are a true inspiration, and you've always added a touch of an artist to your work. It's been a pleasure.

I'll email you tomorrow.

Sucks to see you go, but sometimes you just have to do those things that call you from within. Some things are closer to the heart and mean more to our spirits than those that give a spot of fun.

But, did you have to include Kaboom in that? I'd still like to get paid too ;) You're cutting into my cello lessons there.

Must be something in the water (around the world). My girlfriend just quit her teaching job to focus on her painting again.

Hope you find the happiness that you seek.

Noroc!

Make sure you post your paintings here at some point, even if you have to call them 'concept art' to make them relevant to GG ;)

App, my friend, I wish you luck with the real canvas. I hope to keep in touch, and just so you know - this is not something you can leave behind. It's your other half. ;)

Sometimes you just have to get away from something for a while, just to recharge your batteries and renew your focus, but I hope you will be back someday as I have always enjoyed reading your blogs.

Either way I wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavours.

Sad to hear you go, but to follow the words of everyone else, you gotta do what you gotta do. It's been fun watching your work, and even getting to work with you for a bit. G'luck with your painting and wherever it takes you.
