Two Days; One Post

First of all, I just discovered this https://www.si.edu/openaccess which is great for game devs if you ask me. That's a whole lot of CC0 goodness for all kinds of applications. Good shit, Smithsonian. I will take a shot at 3D printing something from this,

The Second Alchemist's Weapon

The Second Alchemist's Weapon

I decided today that I didn't need 6 pets to have a complete prototype for this project. It seems like twice what I actually would need, thinking about it. The whole point is to learn my way around unity and have some stuff I can reuse while creating
