still needs a ton of polish but it's amazing how far Oleandra and D have come in such short notice since the last playtest #PowerofNature

also trying something with a more "pivot-y" camera system, this one is way too close but it sure is exciting right

IRL Pokemon Pinball at gamecenter. Since the youngest pinball connoisseur is probably like 37 years old the branding is all gen 1 themed but theres newer pokemon you can catch in-game. Wild this exists.

sometimes an attack animation can be a meticulously animated work of human choreography condensed into a second with like 5 reference videos and a tome of the principles of animation to the side, and other times it's just this

and yea these are test rounds I played with @wzruby.bsky.social , who's been gradually bumbling through the game's mechanics at a faster rate than rly anyone should have expected, I'm glad it's all workin out

Blows my mind how this anecdote about King Crimson perfectly contextualizes my ideals when it comes to game/visual design

Bruford spent the entirety of "Trio" with his drumsticks crossed over his chest, waiting for the right moment to join in, but eventually realized that the piece was progressing better without him. His decision not to add any percussion was seen by the rest of the band as a crucial choice, and so he received co-writing credit.[8] "Trio" was later included on the 1975 compilation album A Young Person's Guide to King Crimson, the performance credits of which cite Bruford's contribution to the piece as "admirable restraint."[9]

Deemu has goggles now, mainly due to Current Story purposes but also I needed to give her some defining trait to separate her from a certain Parable of the Insects character. shortly after I posted the latest trailer Bug Fables followed me on the other site tho Myles Mackenzie Voice: Sooo...win?

extremely powerful position to be one of the like 2000 undertale backers so one of the first posts you have to see in the defunct comments section is this guy's pitch for Undertale 2: The Second One

"I had an idea for a second undertale. You go back after tales of people who went to explore the original home of the monsters and never returned. You are sent to see whats going on after being the expert on monsters and the underground. When you return, the barrier comes back trapping you. You find that some of the of the monsters were not fitting in or were treated harshly and so they returned. Now they want to collect human souls but this time its for the express purpose of destroying humanity. Guess whos leading them? The original human who fell. He finaly stole a soul and he blames you for taking his place with his monster family. All the old friends come back again to help but this time you have to fight to not end up just like the very thing you are fighting."

also redrew some Fairy enemies from an old thing. Imagine if there was some kind of invasive scavenger animal that for some reason were shaped exactly like touhou plushies. would that be fucked up or what.

Without her faceplate/helmet, Rubine's facial structure shifts between a replication of her helmet (no mouth, blank eyes) and her "true" face (4 eyes, mouth present). The latter is her action/kill mode/stressed expression, so she's kind of like a cat in a sense.

EBSN (Egregious Biomechanical Superweapon Nudity) #Rubine

A voluptuous alien-like biomechanical figure with dark purple skin/chitin floats in a non-specific dark area while smirking with her sharp white teeth and glowing green eyes. In the background is a large black eye-like supercomputer

A simple look at Rubine in her naked form. In addition to her lack of armor, her limbs are just 4 tentacles and her head is flanked with tentacle like "hair"

also good progress on Oleandra it's probably not too absurd to expect a 4 character playtest at this rate

There's a game here called Starwing Paradox, which a 4D mech game with a tilting seat that's intense to play, unfortunately it's a multiplayer only game that went offline years ago so the only thing you can do is play the offline tutorial, such a waste

biggest shame about the Digital Discourse is that it all snowballed from a very real concern, that the Indie Animation scene is Incredibly White and black creators don't get any of what paltry opportunities exist, this was just not the way to go about it at all
