crawling out of my hole with an awkward double post to say I'm in Melbourne for the week for MIGW, only this time I'm here for gcap with the Gameloft mob. (I'm doing UI there now. oops should've mentioned this earlier) but anyway give us a shout if you're in town too, I'd love to say hello :-)

Wow. @denkiworks.bsky.social is cooking something amazing with Tanuki: Pon's Summer. The story is silly, the sidequests and activities were fun, and, maybe most importantly, HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A FAT LIL RACCOON SHRED LIKE THIS?! I think not. Check out this game. 🤣 #indiegame #indiegames #indiedev

This kind of emoji dialogue selection may have been the first thing I got to prototype for the game, just a really fun sort of unique interaction

🐟 nathan scott @caffinate.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Pon doesn't speak in TANUKI, so I got to draw a lot of emojis for his expressions, other characters and objects. I had a lot of fun with these... tbh it was hard to pitch the game to people without mentioning them sometimes. its been especially rewarding having the dev team use them in comms

I'm currently available for work! I have 15 years of experience making art for games - pixel art and 2D, be it still or animated :) I'm specially open for illustrative work, commissions, part time and/or short-term projects! 🎨 lunascimento.art 📬 lunascimento.art@gmail.com

Environment diorama/concept art for Glimmer, a puzzle game. It features a lighthouse and tiles of different biomes, such as quarry, beach, grass, thorns, etc. The colours are warm.

Pixel art. It's a window to someone's living room, full of plants and moving boxes. A person and a dog look to the outside, where birds fly around a tower of light.

Pixel Art. Game boy-like title and success screen for Forest Adventure, a birdwatching mini-game in Assemble with Care.

Illustration made to be the cover and poster of Wireframe Magazine's Issue 55 that featured a spread on Moonglow Bay.
Two people and a dog are sat happily fishing on a pier. A Racoon steals some of their catches. You can see different biomes on the background.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct. That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting. www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9nO...

Hello again #PortfolioDay ! I'm Anya. I am a freelance illustrator with a love for patterns and historical themes. I am always open for work and would love to find some new illustration projects! ✉️ anya.chalina.illustrations@gmail.com anyachalina.myportfolio.com

The artwork shows a ceremony on a patio. There's a round pool in the center of the image and a round arch in the background. Sisters of the convent are placed in different locations performing different parts of the ritual. Half of them wear a peacock mask and half of them wear sun-like headpieces. There's a woman in the center on the horse. She wears a blue dress decorated with mosaic-like patterns. The horse is covered with blue patterns and stands still above the water. Two twins are sitting on the floor surrounded by large lilies. Behind them one sister plays a harp and another one is holding two bowls with mysterious light. There's a big mosaic tree in the background with other sisters dancing around it. There are two other sisters on top of the wall waving scarves. The artwork is mostly blue and light green

The image shows a room with tall windows and stairs leading to a bathroom below. There's a woman with red hair reaching towards a dollhouse. The woman is an original character of the commissioner. On the right side from the window there's a wall with decorated arch around it and some paintings hanging on the wall. On the first level there's a bathtub with a man laying in it. The bathtub is partially covered by a divider. The artwork is mostly pink and mint with lots of patterns.

The artwork shows musicians sitting in shallow water in a purple room. First musician plays wooden drums, second one plays erhu, third one plays a flute, fourth one plays a gong. All background musicians wear either pots or plates on their heads. The woman in the center has black hair and plays an instrument inspired by Korean instrument called gayageum. There are three purple goldfish floating above the ground. The wall in the background is decorated with arches with stained glass and there's a big flower pot with purple cornflowers. The room also has some arches with silk fabric hanging on them. The artwork is purple with some green details.

the artwork shows a room with a circle-shaped window and two people standing in the center. The window is decorated with flowers and has a curtain hanging over it. The room has two floors and stairs between them. The bottom part has a pool with the reflection of the room and two separated stairs facing each other. The room is decorated with patterns and tiles. The artwork is mostly lilac and turquoise.
