Almost perfect but Jesus needs to be darker and Trump's speech bubble is missing a racial slur and/or dog whistle

I really wanna make a map with roller coasters as a center point but making the track pieces is NOT something I want to do, so the coaster pack alone will save me so much headache, and will allow me to make actually interesting coasters lol. Thank you!

Yeah that makes sense, I figured Paper Mario was likely an inspiration. I like the tilted flat look just never played Paper Mario! Closest I played was Superstar Saga lol

I guess I was thinking of like a more direct-facing like in this image (and the opposite of this so you could see the back from roughly straight behind)

Backspin Interactive @backspinteractive.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
Very cute and well done! Have you considered a camera-facing and away-facing animation angle for the character? I feel it'd sell the movement a lot better. Also maybe a black outline shader on the entire environment would tie the style together even more?

update: I wasn't using the material in any of the 3 current maps lol so was a relic ig from before I understood the material saving system? I guess that's a good thing but yeah a sign my clutter has accumulated #Godot

When it comes to display tech, refresh rate is way more immersive for me than anything else, ime (for games and sports at least, uncanny for movies & shows for sure)

I recommend either album by Acid Bath but especially they're debut, they're really killer. Are you not a Radiohead fan or do none of their albums just make the cut for you?

Idle screen I made some months ago for arcade machines in Breakaway's "Dead Pixels" map 👾⚽ #AltText #Breakaway #programmerart #indiedev #game #soccer #football #arcade #Steam #demo (shout-out to @kenney.nl for the arcade machines and a few other assets used in Breakaway!)
pixelated text in middle of image: submit holo-token

retro looking black and white arcade waiting screen with rectangles and squares as decoration, some even forming a robotic smiley face --  detail for arcade machines on Breakaway's Dead Pixels ("Humanity-Free Arcade") mapPurple arcade machines with prior image, the idle screen, although the middle machine has a soccer field inset instead of a screen, and a blue translucent smiley-faced bot (similarly sized to the arcade machines) is standing at the active machine as if he's playing -- this image is a capture of the default view when at Breakaway's main menu with the Dead Pixels map loaded

Still can't get over the fact that @playstation.com announced an end to physical media in the same post they announced the closure of their digital store for older platforms. Literally justifying the worries people have about a digital-only future within the same post.

Really none of them work at icon size. I have a separate icon made for that. But I ended up abandoning the first two logos because I didn't make them in a large enough resolution and they just didn't fit well enough for genre (no symbols aka soccer ball) and weren't unique enough.

Conservative policy literally costs more for worse outcomes. Not necessary. Quite the opposite. Fuck neo-liberalism also tho basically same shit different clothing.

Conservatives are actually Nazis. Conservatism = domestic terrorism.

(newest cover needs some players on either side of the ball or something else to help frame the logo better but it's a start!)
