There is no such thing as AI art.

I'm running a Halloween art jam on Itch.io! It's open to any sort of submission: zines, mods, games, music, prose and anything else your creative heart desires. itch.io/jam/teeth-te...

A black and white image of the TEETH TEETH TEETH creative jam banner. It includes a photobashed cathedral covered in teeth from sharks and lamprey. The banner reads October 11th to the 26th, between a wide smiling mouth of fanged teeth. The background of the image is the word TEETH repeated over and over in various shades of grey.

My genderhack of Megaman X – MegaStar is finally coming together! I've mostly got the portrait sorted, I've added a star glyph (to replace the name "X"), and updated pronouns. Screenshots are all in-emulator. #romhack #snes #megaman #transgender

Screenshot of a video game. Black screen with an anime woman in blue armour with a cannon on her right arm. The text reads "Mega Star Specification".

Screenshot of a video game. Black screen with an anime woman in blue armour with a cannon on her right arm. A purple reticle is over the cannon-arm. The text reads "arms are equipped with: star-buster (mega buster mark17), energy amplifier, variable weapon system"

Screenshot of a video game. A red screen with blue-white text on it that reads: WARNING: STAR IS THE FIRST OF A NEW GENERATION OF ROBOTS WHICH CONTAIN AN INNOVATIVE NEW FEATURE - THE ABILITY TO THINK, FEEL AND MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS. HOWEVER THIS ABILITY COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF STAR WERE TO BREAK THE FI..."

Working on an NPC mod based on that previous Perambulating Sallow mod~

Minimalist pixel art of a weeping cherry tree with four deer like legs, laying down in a field. The style is meant to fit with Caves of Qud's overall aesthetic, and includes three tone scanlines to resemble an old CRT monitor.

My first mod for Caves of Qud! Made for the Burgeoning Jam, this critter is the Perambulating Sallow. (And also it's less ambulatory cousin, the Pendulous Sallow.) They're just pleasant cervine tree folks that like to do a ramble about. (Reupload because Bluesky hates pixel art.)

Pixel art image as cover art for a Caves of Qud mod that adds a weeping willow tree and a mobile weeping willow. The art depicts a pixel art weeping willow covered in white catkins and a four legged ambulatory willow tree.

Had this account for over a year and only just now remembered to write up a bio. Check back with me in 2028 when I remember to put up a pinned post with links to my portfolio and ongoing projects.

Burgeoning Jam for #cavesofqud is this month, so I wanted to get back into the vibe with a new character portrait! "Sebilant Glow, Radiant Hexa Titan of the Cerastium Salts"

Pixel art portrait of a Caves of Qud Character separated into three frames. The top left frame is a custom player tile of a multi-armed statue with a star for a head. The bottom left frame are the four signature mutations of this character: Light Manipulation, Burgeoning, Multi-Arms and Carapace. The largest frame on the right is a 6 armed statuesque character covered in vibes and plant growth. There are two urberries growing from the tips of its forelimbs and a star apple in place of a heart. The figure's head is replaced with a star shaped glowing sun.

Often recently, I find myself tugging at the connections I once knew. People and places online that held meaning, fallow fields, vacant digital homes. I wander the ghost architectures of an internet past and gone, I remember a time defined by exploration, untarnished by the millstone of success.

I feel the stress inside my chest writhing wretched straining against blood that boils and veins grown cold

Too busy with projects to update much recently, but here's the thing I submitted to the Undertale survey recently~

Look past the veil and find yourself at home.

Silhouette looking out into a crack in a black crag. Past the crags, is inky black expanse filled with crystal eyes like stars. Around the silhouette's head is a circle of light, topped with crystal eyes.

I hope I can be half as awesome as the #chi2025 keynote speaker, Wakamiyu Masako, when I grow up. She’s a technology legend at 90!

Puppet projects in progress, my spouse is working on a Happi coat for Ralsei and I'm slowing working on a weird green fuzzy hand puppet.

Photograph of a Ralsei doll with a Happi style coat. And a green fuzzy hand puppet, eyeless, with one arm.

My discord is hosting our semi-regular Rekindled event! It's an opportunity to pick up any old projects you may have, dust them off, and make some progress! It'll run from March 13th to the 20th and we'll have lots of VC coworking and perhaps even some streams too~ discord.gg/XF58gCvh?eve...

Torque, the Enigma-smith, Nano-Artifex Cerritulus of Kutha. Technologic infinity repeating the prime time of your life, but you're still human, after all. #cavesofqud

The little sprites at the top left of these portraits comes from the Choose Your Fighter (by Kernelmethod) mod series "CYF Expansion -" by Mephril. I HIGHLY recommend CYF and the expansions. I want to do more of these portraits, so like, if you've got a fun character concept hit me up.

Another #CavesofQud character, the True Kin: Soleil Dawn, First from the Salt. Salt stained her mantle, a thing of tatters, stained in old blood.

Pixel art of a woman in a mask. The mask is stylized with sun rays and has filters from a gas mask welded to it. The woman is carrying a sniper rifle over one shoulder and is wearing a white and red mantle.

I've been into a lot of #CavesofQud recently, thought I'd do some portraits of the characters I've run! Here we have, Echoglacia, Ice Words of the Frozen Sky~

Pixel art of an anthropomorphic reindeer in blue and white monochrome. Her portrait is flanked by icons from Caves of Qud.

It's about time I set myself up on here. I like doing pixel art and gamedev so I need somewhere to squawk about it. Some of my stuff is up on itch.io but a lot of it I do for various game jams. So hey. pixelflower.itch.io

An anthropomorphic purple deer with yellow eyes, white antlers and slime green hair wearing a pink shawl.
