You can now summon bird spirits, a feature which I think more games should have. If you want to see more cool spells and other game updates, you can find them on my patreon! Those posts are not paywalled, but if you want to support me it would be a great help! patreon.com/elliesprites/

a little look at how we write the script for The Mermaid Mask - I write the script directly into the Unity editor, including the voice directions. Then that gets automatically exported into a document for the actors to read. Then, once we have the audio, we import it back into the dialogue system

in the morning
A little mysterious creature in a cloak that obscures their face aside from two glowing yellow eyes holds a curved staff that resembles a fern. They stand on a grassy ridge waiting for something or someone, waiting for the sun, waiting for the moon, waiting forever.

I dunno man. It feels like Nintendo is repeating their playbook step by step from 15 years ago, only worse. I can't understand why anyone would be excited for that.

some more ceramic pieces from last month!
A little ceramic sculpture of a brown appaloosa horse with various shades of cream and black making up its spots. A little brown creature with a long neck, nubby horns, and a white belly.
Little black spots are all over its body and it sports a delicate pink blush over its cheeks.A white dish with little blue, big eyed fish and stars circling the inside. A photo of two white dishes with a brown checkerboard pattern on the inside. 
In the centre of them is an aged gold finish.

As a character customization head, I've always disliked having to choose between "your hair looks beautiful, magnificent, exactly how you wanted" and "oh, you're wearing a hat now, okay here's a ponytail" and so early on in Sunkissed City's development, I came up with this.

“Cowboy Roll” • Pen, colored pencil, and copic gray marker on paper. A lone cowboy sits atop a hill in the foreground. He yells out to his colleagues “last one” before rolling down the hill like a silly boy. When he reaches the bottom he sits up and says “just one more.” In the background of the piece we see two other cowboys on their horses and a 3rd horse eating grass. It’s likely these cowboys have been waiting here for sometime. Artist’s note: I like the line work and expressions in this one. I try to keep most of my drawings as single panels so creating movement and time-lapse in one frame is a good challenge.

wanted to share a cool idea @edgedrive.bsky.social came up with for one-way platforms. They have a lovely physicality to them, and the fact that one-way platforms in Unearth are fairly infrequent should prevent the sound from becoming grating. And!!! They can be rotated for greater versatility!

This owl is out of spoons
A digital art illustration by Sita Duncan of a burrowing owl who stands ready with a screw driver. Many instruments adorn her body, including goggles with many lenses, a shovel, a traveler's pack and many jewelers rings.A close up of her face. One eye is hidden by long, curvey hair and the visible one is half lidded and done with nonsense.

I put a stupid amount of work in to UI transitions. All for something that lasts less than a second. But it just feels sooo gewd. You might not notice, but that the crosshair never leaves the screen. It just morphs to new shapes. #CherubDev #UE5

silly comic about nothing in particular
Panel 1: an anthro dog says "After managing to secure a publisher and years of nonstop work, my dream to make Barky & the Red Balloon is finally fulfilled!
I hope my personal experiences shine through and somebody out there feels seen by my story!"
Panel 2: several youtube thumbnails demonstrating people *not* getting the dog's story. They read "How Barky RUINED B&tRB", "Barky & the Red Balloon was ALMOST good...", and "FIXING Barky & the Red Balloon!"

I finally had a chance to finish this landscape over the weekend. I don't think it's anywhere in particular but it reminds me of hiking in the Lake District. Enjoy! #pixelart
Landscape depicting stone walls, fallen stone circles and a wooded valley. There is a Robin in the foreground.

Lots of excitement about the squeaky beach sounds in Big Walk! You'll all be happy to know it's the real thing! Was absolutely giddy to get to record them on an actual Australian squeaky beach in Wilson's Promontory. Yes, if you didn't know some beaches there really do squeak. It is pure joy.

Untitled — Zdzisław Beksiński, 1978
Cleaning the street corner in a surreal City there are a couple of tall buildings that are honeycombed with openings that are not are not arranged in the in the orderly patterns that usually Mark human made structures instead there much more organic looking the building in the foreground has balconies as well as openings and a sculptured belief of a human face on a wall. Down in the street are a couple of tiny human figures
