- Tail Puppet!
- 6 Body Shape Sliders that go bigger and smaller!

While the avatar itself is mostly complete, this project as whole is still a work-in-progress! Blender files as well as VRM, Resonite, and Overte support are planned and there is still further room for optimization.

Here is the legacy Public VRChat Avatar. This is a really old version of the avatar.

This link needs CVR to be installed & the URL handler to be setup. You can also search for "Shorkobot!" in the main menu.
Note: This avatar doesn't use Substance Painter, Photoshop, Poiyomi, VRCFury, or any closed sourced software besides DynamicsBones, Unity, and the platforms it targets. Yay! Go FOSS!
But, unfortunately, that means no Substance Painter or PSD files, sorry! The avatars was originally built to be customizable in game first & foremost, with mobile compatibility a close second priority, so most of the layer mixing & swapping happens with a custom shader and material swaps (not in an image editor).
