A four-panel comic featuring a small black cat sitting in a soft, dreamy landscape beneath a blue sky. As the panels progress, the cat’s expression changes from calm to increasingly wide-eyed. The text across the panels reads: “I wish your August is full of the things that make you happy.” The final panel shows the cat with enormous, sparkling eyes, adding a sweet and hopeful feeling to the message. The artwork has a gentle, textured, hand-drawn style with pastel blue, green, and pink tones in the background.

A four-panel comic featuring a fluffy black cat holding up a small striped sock. In the first panel, the cat looks serious and says, “Today I brought this sock for you.” In the second, it admits with a deadpan expression, “Yes, I stole it just for you.” In the third, the cat beams with a wide smile and adds, “Simply because you deserve the best.” In the final panel, the cat clasps its paws together with huge, sparkling eyes and says, “And I hope you have a really wonderful day.”

An idea: Myst 6 can be both realtime and pre-rendered (Imagine Revelation's graphics but in realtime). The trick is gaussian splatting! Designing the whole thing in 3d software then baking to major locations to splats, preserving all detail and the offline rendering feel.
