Made a silly little artwork about our recent game 10, 9, 7... FIRE! #gameart #indiegame #digitalart
Educational counting poster: Let's Learn Numbers! From Ölö to Ölö
Three members of the species "Ölö" are seen in front of a blackboard. One of them is deep in thought about the intricacies of the Ölö counting system seen on the blackboard (it's just "Ölö" 10 times).
The middle Ölö is a teacher (with glasses) pointing a stick at one of the "numbers": Ölö.
On the right side, an Ölö wearing a square academic cap is sitting on the ground, quietly smiling.
Behind that last Ölö, the phrase "Shmölö?" is written on the blackboard.
