I got some feedback of the caracters looking too "cute" (or goofy was the exact word). There's some intentional goofiness for sure, but maybe the character style clashes too much with conventions of the stealth genre. I did an experimental paintover.

Since the game's EA launch half a year, I've been focusing a lot on optimization. I made a post describing some methods I've used and showing the progress I've made: https://gustofwindgame.com/blog/?p=184

When the character falls on a very slanted surface, it switches to fall with physics. I had this before too, but yesterday did some big improvements on how it looks (adding its own animation and adjusting the transitions, physics collider and camera).

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

I tried a hood on the character. I don't know what I'll do yet but I'm mostly leaning towards the original look.
