Hi gang! Hope you’ve been well!

It’s no secret that UNBEATABLE’s a project with a *lot* of animation work to be done. That’s something we knew we’d need help with from the start, so for the past few months we’ve been bringing on a talented crew of animators who’ll help bring both the game’s characters and world to life. We’re excited to finally lift the curtain and show you who’s joining us!

INTRODUCING THE D-CELL ANIMATION TEAM:

MICHELLE RAMOS (she / they)

Michelle Ramos is a 2D animator from the far off land of Canada who loves bright colours and cute girls and by god, does UNBEATABLE have both. She also has a tendency to replay the same Splatoon and Sonic tracks for hours.

Eli Stavridis is a 2D Animator/Illustrator who’s super excited to be working on UNBEATABLE. When she’s not working, she’s either baby-talking her cat or begging someone to watch One Piece.

CAMILLE (she / her)

From the far and alien reaches of France, Camille has been animating for games for a while, both for her own games and other’s, some you may have heard of, most you likely have not. Rhythm games and beat’em ups are among her (many) favorite genres, and working on a mix of the two has been a lifelong goal… until UNBEATABLE came along and made the dream a reality. She will talk your ear off about any games or series she’s remotely enthusiastic about, which is just about most of them.

TAQI (she /her)

Taqi is helping out with animation. Aside from animation, she enjoys doing illustrations too! you can see her works on Twitter and on her site! She’s been a big help on the project since last year, and we’re excited to have her back doing more work on the game!

Denise Destri Bacic is a brazilian 2D animator who loves anime and lives surrounded by lots of figures, cushions and other anime goods. May laugh a bit too much and have an unfading obsession with Touhou music.

WIL OSBORNE (he/him)

Wil Osborne is the production assistant for the animation team of UNBEATABLE. He helps with keeping the team and their various assets organized and coordinating meetings through a myriad of different time zones. He has a lifelong love of anime and video games yet somehow has bad taste in both.

The animation team’s already been up to incredible work thus far, and we can’t wait to show you the final results later on in the future!

(other custodial things)

  • Curious in seeing how UNBEATABLE plays on the Steam Deck? Our producer got to try the game on it, and we’re happy to report that the game plays great out of the box on the system. See it in action here.
  • PROPER RHYTHM is now included as a playable song in Hajimeli’s “vivid/stasis”, a freeware rhythm game! Check it out: https://hajimeli.itch.io/vividstasis-gameplay-demo

That’s all from us for today! Don’t forget to stay hydrated this summer!
