Spent some time this weekend to revive a few 6-year-old Unity games I wrote as part of EECS494 at UM. Check them out on my website! shengpu-tang.me/ Requires a modern browser to play. Zelda: WASD move, X sword, Z switch weapon. Flappy: mouse click (single), A&L (coop).

We used the glb (gltf) format when exporting from blender. Godot 3.5 is very good at importing these files.

Yes! I'm thinking we can fit some of that into the LiveOps course (and great idea on the technical art collab-- I think there would be heavy demand).

Just completed my largest semester ever-- 222 amazing students across three courses and one @WolverineSoft Studio. They put their heart and soul into it, and one could easily tell. Now- time to design more courses! Game Engine construction, graphics, and backend / LiveOps maybe?
