Reposted by StellarMantisVeering Towards Turmoil @veertowardsturmoil.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Here's the second little sketch I made while preparing for a long, übernerdy UG music chat that'll begin in a moment. I'd say my muse @stellarmantis.bsky.social might get the gist and like the pulsating atmosphere already, but I'll redo most things anyway.soundcloud.comBugger AllA second quickie in a day. Unfinished, as usual. 221
Reposted by StellarMantisVeering Towards Turmoil @veertowardsturmoil.bsky.social · 19/09/2026An overdose of colourful pixels made a certain Finnish horror jazz artist go monochrome for a moment. A poorly caffeinated hat tip to my #gamedev muse @stellarmantis.bsky.social and the blogging science maestro who came up with the tune's title, @pzmyers.bsky.socialsoundcloud.comQuantificosis WIPAnother jump in at the deep end. A pixelated protagonist in peril. The title is a recently invented word of PZ Myers. "The need to attach a specific number to a phenomenon that is not a single parame 072
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Excellent ambient soundtrack for walking the halls!! Thanks once again. I could loop this forever. 100
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 12/09/2026I hear a rusty stuttering waterwheel churning sludge in the underworld while damned spirits fail to climb the roots that reach enticingly from the one shaft of light above. This is an atmosphere that evokes imagery. You share this strongly with all my favorite musical artists. 011
Reposted by StellarMantisVeering Towards Turmoil @veertowardsturmoil.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Three decades ago, DJ Shadow asked "what does your soul look like?" It's taken ages to figure out how to answer, but I might finally be onto something. I'm not sure if @stellarmantis.bsky.social torments me on purpose, but those gorgeous #gamedev clips make me plunge into sinister realms like this.soundcloud.comVomworthy (an early solo effort)The disorientative quality is somewhat accidental, but I'm weirdly proud of this sinister puke even before anyone else has heard what goes on or agreed to be involved. I think Eliza might be bulimic. 192
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Random post but I just got a ton more free time to work on development... 😁 Switched my day job to 3 nights. And I had the revolutionary idea of putting my PC monitor at a higher level than my keyboard, who else was craning their neck down awkwardly for 20 years without ever thinking of it? 280
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 09/09/2026Thank you for making some of my best gaming memories, ready to take it all the way north this time!! 010

StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 05/09/2026As an evergreen will! I was surprised at many people making this comment, myself forgetting that not everyone lives in the deep frosty north. 110
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 05/09/2026This is a lot of fun to play with! Everyone check this out! 170

StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Best resource to learn is their youtube channel, they show some things that even I didn't know after almost a year of crocotiling daily. For instance making curves and more complex geometry, as well as animated UV textures. 110

StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 05/09/2026This is for the dream sequence "Eliza waits at the door of life forever with the wrong key and freezes to death, never seeing springtime." 010
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I wonder how a soundtrack could portray this, maybe it starts with the warm cacophony of summer and instruments fall off over time until there is only the hollow hum of winter. If there were 3 versions of the same track with different instruments subtracted, it could change in time with the scenery! 110
StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I think so too! Thanks so much for the excellent work, it inspires the graphics and the graphics inspire the music. It's a very nice feedback loop. 090

StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Works on the same rails as the player, so it will find the fastest way to your location along the rails only occasionally cutting across the room to pick you up and either throw or bite. I'm thinking it will just lunge and grab the player and she will be able to mash buttons to escape some damage. 020

StellarMantis @stellarmantis.bsky.social · 10/08/2026I love it, makes me so happy to have this and the Castlevania collections on steam. Also Ghosts n Goblins Resurrection is very much worth playing.
