October Playlist 2026 DAY 05: Still Alive - Lisa Miskovsky From Mirror’s Edge This song was my most replayed tune back in high school. Both it and the game greatly influenced my art and who I am today. #mirrorsedge

MYAAASHIIIIIDOOOOOOOO! 🐾💥 My eighth plush in the roster: Myashid, based off of Rashid from Street Fighter 6! All hand-stitched, inspired by the cats from Neco Drop.

The whole reason for the sploot pose was so it looked like he was flying while swinging from a harness.

I heard the second one wasn't as fun at the time, just something about the first one running/jumping around causing havoc was so great. You named almost everything except two towards the bottom: Monster Hunter (above the Korok) and Deadly Tide (the bottom-right ship). Thanks again!!

The black ship is from an old PC game called Fury3! Eyy Prototype fans unite!! 🙌

My all-time favourite games I grew up with, drawn back in 2022. It brings a tear to my eye that most of these games have been remade and are relevant again 😂

Can you guess all the games and which ones have been remade??

Yes, commissioners! Your stick figures serve as far better reference than any generated slop. Enjoy a never-before-seen doodle by Jeff Yu at Monstercat, and my resulting illustration. Shoutout to Jeff! He made MCat's weekend recaps a blast to paint ❤️

Jeff!!! His Mcat sketches were legendary! ✏️ And I agree, stick figure references are genuine and a wholesome way to connect with the other person. I miss receiving sketches like this for work.

Key art for a story I’ve been writing involving my OCs! Heavily inspired by All Too Late by IMANU and Rhode. (I like to imagine this song as the opening theme if this story was a TV show.) More art and ideas will be shared to patrons on my Patreon: www.patreon.com/gameshrimp

The two main characters from my story project, Fangs (top) and Amber (bottom).

Amanda Cha @gameshrimp.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

I wanted to revisit the 2019 concept of the different transformation stages of my OC, Fangs. Fangs' transformations (or shifts) are symptoms from a condition he's had since birth, an uncommon Ophideye disease called Ravenous. More info and images on my Patreon! patreon.com/gameshrimp

Artwork for Teminite and Nokae's latest release: Burn It Down 🔥

Amanda Cha @gameshrimp.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Still one of my all-time favourite artworks for a number of reasons, but one of those reasons is because the line work on the characters is actually the raw sketch, intact. I'm so used to polishing art to final that it caught me off guard when the KP guys said they liked the sketch as is.

We're horseposting post your horses I went down a deep horse spiral when I worked on this artwork for Riot. The second screen I used for reference was COMPLETELY covered in images. I learned so much about horses and that drawing them kinda scares me to this day. Up there with cars.

Example of what my second screen looked like.

Amanda Cha @gameshrimp.bsky.social · 17/02/2026

I grew up thinking I was the sheep/goat but it turns out, by the lunar calendar, I’ve been a horse this whole time. So I imagined I’m a confused, wooly horse. Happy Lunar New Year! 🐴🧧
