I've finished a lot of art pieces but I haven't really found the time to write up about their personalities or so. For now, I want to make predictions for the new Tundraweed and merges. #pvz #pvzfusion #pvzf

** Spruce Snowroller **
Most Spruce Sharpshooter merges focus on the Sharpshooting bit, so Spruce Snowroller focuses on shooting them out.
* Shoots Spruceweeds that act similarly to Tundraweeds, but aren’t quite as durable and require back-up to maximize damage. Use supportive plants to support the Spruceweeds!
** Spruceweeds can only move forward. Up to three may be shot by a single Spruce Sharpshooter, while up to fifteen can be at the lawn at any time before any more are generated.

** Rumbleweed **
One thing I often want to try is to avoid making a combination too obvious at times. With Rumbleweed, what is going to separate it from something like Bladegrass, besides the fact it doesn’t destroy green signals? Shield generation? Perhaps, but Tundraweed's quite bulky for its cost.
* Upon planting, or after rolling at least 2.5 tiles, Rumbleweed will perform a dash attack that hits up to three zombies for heavy damage. The final zombie hit will be damaged rapidly until they are either defeated or move out of its way, at that point Rumbleweed rolls past them after a short rest.
* Rumbleweed’s basic attack now has similar properties to Saw-me-Not (deals rapid damage per second), though its DPS remains the same.
* While attacking, Rumbleweed takes 20% less damage than normal. Hard to actually observe, since that’s usually when zombies are attacking.

** Tumblock **
This one is a bit of a creative rut, since Bamblock is always about transferring damage through contact. Just making its Tundraweed merge just transfer damage seems like the same thing as just making Jalapeño, save for the fact that maybe it can deal with 1,800+ targets for the cheap price of 75 Sun. But I feel like that’d be too unbalanced even for its recharge. So right now, Tumblock only has pseudo-damage transferral in the form of losing health as it deals damage. Health loss scales for damage dealt.
* Unlike other Tundraweeds, Tumblock is a large plant, meaning it can block enemy fire.
* Higher health, but consumes health as it deals damage. Unlike most other Bamblock merges, Tumblock does not inflict it all simultaneously.

Creepy sweets and just one little guy who didn't want to be paired with them: Gomere, the Gobchild, and Gomere! These guys were made as #pizzatower OCs for one of my friends' AUs! No larger information for now, still testing with a new way to present bios. Check replies instead. #art #oc

Designed my own takes on Bop Choy & Blast Choy along with a rough ability outline for the latter. Might revisit the two of them in the future to give them larger renders and touch up Blast's left arm. #art #pvz #pvz3e

From left to right: My take on Bop Choy and Blast Ahoy (Blast Choy).

GENERAL IDEAS
* The Redesign
** Blast Choy uses more olive colors instead of the orange gradient to resemble more burnt vegetables. I don’t know if those types of veggies existed, but I do think that not knowing the inspiration hurts the design and makes the gradient not very charming to look at.
** Blast Choy’s leaf arm and potato is replaced with two long onions that end in a mine detonator. This is to allow players to connect the idea that Potato Mine may be used, along with the burnt appearance. Originally, it was him holding a Potato Mine that he would smash to detonate.
** Blast Choy was renamed Blast Ahoy for sounding like a cool stage name.
* The Function
** Throws punches towards walkers two tiles in front of him (50 / 1s). These punches also deal splash damage (20) in its tile.
** At the tenth punch, Blast Ahoy does a double punch that causes an explosion that knocks all zombies in his range two tiles back, before becoming inactive for 7.5s.

The original design of Blast Choy from PvZ3E.

Its redesign was meant

I don't really have any new art to show, BUT I have been working on description for my OCs and updating my Friend File! Things have been going slow with nothing much to focus on.

Been away for a while can confirm I'm still working on art and will eventually start posting! Hopefully by the end of August... You'll also see some posts 'bout me own personal fangames I've been making!

! YOSHI AND THE MYSTERIOUS BOOK FACT ! Heart turnip Croakaokes actually follow Yoshi around until they lose sight of him. This is best demonstrated by standing near one for thirty seconds, and then bouncing on them. Will post video proof once I get an adequate screen recorder.

! PVZ3E SPOILERS ! Still chipping away at that PvZ3E thing. Concentration is pretty hard but for now I'm doing ice plants again! I only really have much to say about Clonk Choy, since the above is using a placeholder design from PvZ3C. #pvz #pvz3e

A couple of days back I reinstalled Clay Jam and had no idea that Clay Jam and Clay Jam Classic are two separate games. Hopefully they're not that different, but it's funny regardless!

Tried my own hand at implementing Umbrella Leaf merges into PvZ3E, though I'm not sure how balanced they are. Long story short, Umbrella Leaf merges may now have a manual aspect to them. Check alt text for more information. #pvz #pvz3e

I'll admit that I haven't played PvZ3E and most of these implementations are just based off of the vibe I get from some merges' functions. With how the game feels built strongly around very specific and obvious counter-play, I wanted to give Umbrella Leaf merges more uses when there's no overheads to block, and to benefit from them more consistently when there are.

Right now, Numbing Cabbage simply blocks overheads against it. Previously, it would execute a counterattack where it damaged all nearby zombies, but it got stripped out supposedly for balancing reasons. I don't agree with this change since it make Numbing Cabbage just a stronger Nippy Cabbage. And when your game's main draw is merging plants to create new interesting ones, Numbing Cabbage may be balanced, but it ain't very clever.

Two fishy OCs I made, both of them were original characters I made prior. One on the left is Bubb Scubba, slug butler, and the other is a redesigned character that's now 100% fish. More when I make official "big" renders of them! #oc #art #ocart

I've finished Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. I'll say it's definitely a lot more fun to play than to watch, at least with how many people's playthrough often show them speeding to get to the end.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book have been real fun! Halted a lot of my artistic processes just to discover these curious creatures, think I'm nearly at the end of the game...

Played Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, honestly excited just because of how much a Scatterpuff can do. Might get myself a Mario wiki account just to add my discoveries... and update Molevoloid's screenshot. That one was taken by my iPad on my Switch. Still need to add a better one.

At times, shading's a real pain in the butt, and so is making patterns. Want to note this in the future if I haven't already, but I think I might reduce shading even further and use it more as character expression. What's this for? You'll see...

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

If I had a nickel for every time Plants vs. Zombies 3 introduced a plant that shared a name with a well-known OC plant, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?

I'm thinking of re-evaluating my art style just a bit. Figured that it's getting more difficult for me to draw characters with the amount of detail I'm putting into them over time.

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

I've been pretty stale on artwork for the past few days, haven't really had the motivation to create any and that really sucks. That's another way to say expect a lot more of my fan-made game ideas from me over art for now, mainly coming from PvZ3E because boy I want the game to be good.

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

Created a potential rework on Sun-shroom based on details from PvZ3E I've gathered. I'll admit that I think I made them a bit too complex. #pvz #pvz3e

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

I think in the future, I'll be reposting old art I've made but attaching character bios to them for viewing pleasure. Also... following more people, liking more posts, etcetera. Want to make my Discover feed more pleasant to look at for me.

More work being done on my PvZ3 take. It's not going to be a real game, but I decided that it would be easier to catalogue all of them if I formatted them like this. I plan to make the Google documents I written on them public later. #pvz #pvz3e

Meet Nova Medaia, rough 'n tough finger gunner with quite the explosive magic at her fingertips! This is her third redesign and I plan to group her with a couple of other characters in the future! #ocart #oc #art

* A rough ‘n tough gal who can fire mana bombs from her fingertips, a power called Hotshot! She can flick them, finger gun them,, and with a snap, can create an explosion right around her! She’s ripped off the glove’s finger tips just to enhance this ability! She wears them because it’s cool!
** All these powers use the fingertips, nothing about the palm of your hand! This includes all the fingers, not just the index finger!
** One notable move she’s got is the ability to set down mana bombs that detonate with the snap of her fingers. She uses this move more often than not to just show off, but at times she will use it as a trap.
* She’s all about flair and pretty colors! While she is careful in her movements on the battlefield, she does love to shoot her mana bombs in the sassiest way possible, be it looking away from her fingers or a spin-toss to victory.
* Not much is known about her backstory, just that she’s run away from her home for reasons nobody knows about. She doesn’t speak a lot about it.

* Nova Medaia was created a long time ago as a “style test” of some sorts. Compared to her older designs, what I wanted to do with her most recent one is make it dirtier.
* In addition, Nova Medaia is a spin on magic users that use their hands to cast magic.
* According to old design notes:
** Nova Medaia was a test on more darker skin tones, something that I believe I hadn’t done up until the point. Or did, but just didn’t notice…
** One challenge was hair layering. Apparently I had to split the outline from the hair filling, whatever that meant.
** Her oldest design got a redesign to make her hands more visible. It’s something that’s not in her most recent designs.

Is it just me, or do some of the PvZ3E stories just feel... I don't know, undercooked compared to early PvZ2? Is Mo writing these? I know it feels nitpicky, but some of these stories just feel... bland. (Using zombies as examples)

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 08/04/2026

Based on what I've read, these are my thoughts on Plants vs. Zombies 3 Evolved's recent beta. I haven't played the game and I haven't watched gameplay of the plants, I'll admit, so this will definitely change when I get to see 'em in action.

Mr. Yokai @mryokai902.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

I'm checking out the Plants vs. Zombies 3 Evolved beta, and what do you mean that Puff-shroom's Tier II? I thought it'd be gone or a utility that devolves plants, not a plant with a Sun Cost more than 0 judging from the Fusion mechanic!
