Based of Diablo concept art
Modeled in Maya. The screen shot is taken from Maya. Used some Zbrush for the trees normal map and Crazy Bump for the rest of the normal maps. There are 4 texture maps all 1024 each. Could probably atlas them into one 2048. There is also one 2048 Lightmap.

Melbourne, Australia - Games for Gummie today is pleased to introduce Shuriken Chicken 1.0 for iOS, their new, stylized, side scroller game where players control a ninja chicken. All backgrounds, objects, and characters are made from hand cut felt, then photographed for use in the game. There are several 2D animated layers, as the black clad chicken with a red comb tries to run as far as possible, leaping over or sliding under obstacles, and bouncing off trampolines and springboards.

Well, it was only released yesterday for the iOS platform, but you may have noticed that Defiant Development's latest release, Ski Safari, is featured in the "New and Noteworthy" section on Apple's Appstore. It's also game of the week in the US which is excellent news and most deserving for such an incredibly fun and finely polished title.
Ski Safari, developed by Brendan Watts and Shaun Eustace, started as a tech prototype back in October last year before it was entered in the Unity Flash in…

They came up with Bullistic and gave it away for free on the App Store, however, its popularity became a huge surprise for Millipede after it was downloaded hundreds of thousands of times…

It'll come as some comfort for those who have been let go from SEGA Studios Australia since the Brisbane studio halved in numbers over two months ago, but the game they've been working on, London 2012 – The Official Video Game of the Olympic Games, has received some very positive words from the Senior Editor at IGN Australia. He's played a preview on the PlayStation 3 and touts it as "the best Olympics Game to date".
Now, the track record for past Olympic games may be spotty at best, where many…
