Development

I may iterate once or twice more before colouring.

Been a long time since I posted on here or make any pixel art. This is a test piece for a smaller scale more suited for a dungeon crawling game.

Seems like it’s still going strong so good for them. I hope I can stretch my wings artistically again at some point.

His limp needs some smoothing out but it’s finally getting there.

Concept for a twinstick shooter version of Brindleby. I have a whole concept for “Hunt for the Ham Baron” a roguelike dungeon crawler that takes you into the sewers hunting a madman. I hope to make it someday.

Ghost town. A former place of industry and the future, now just filled with spectres and memories.

Life has definitely been a more pressing matter than game development for almost every member of our team of late. I’d always rather the people I care about take care of themselves so I’ve taken the chance to stream and draw up some samples for a Freakshow side project.

I’ve had LARPING on my brain since I went away with my incredible girlfriend in August and the main way to communicate outside of the game is to send a private message or a “Raven”. So I drew up a raven to make my messages that bit more personal.

A great workmate gave me the idea of a kinetic gun so I wanted to play around with it artistically.

If I could animate only one character for the rest of my life, I think it would be Brindleby.

He’ll talk to our protagonist but he’s not particularly happy to!

Forgive the slight flicker, the limited colours in a gif didn’t like this scene.
