Maclnnes Studios: Real-Time Shorts Challenge:

Real-Time Shorts challenge

Cute Creatures virtual project took 2 developers 1 month to create on our free time. We’ve decided to focus on something small in scope, but visually different. Since there were limitations (like no body capture support), we were able to use these constraints to help define the visual direction.

1. Downloaded Victor from https://facewaretech.com/learn/free-assets/
