Twinbee - Blog Posts

4th assignment for the zBrush class. Kudos to the oldies out there who know which 80s arcade game inspired this! Still lots of work/improvements to be done, but I had lots of fun making this one. I'm really loving zBrush... and there's still so much to learn. \( ° A °)/ For the next assignment, I think I'll just add more characters to the narrative, and slowly build on the story. Spoiler: Used to play this game called TwinBee in the arcades back in the late 80s, (6th grade?) and I remember​ always doodling them in class (specifically Ms. Javarta's science class). It was a really cool and simple game but with lots of personality. I liked that when your ship got damaged, he would lose his limbs. You'd then have to wait for a repair bot to give you new ones. Really great attention to detail and nuances that defined the better games back then. #twinbee #konami #zbrush

Absolutely the best final boss theme I've heard from the SNES/SFC era. I mean, it's playing while you're fighting a functionally superior clone about twice your size that's trying to pummel you into a small blue & yellow stain. Just tell me that's not awesome.
