Pixel dailies: Cave creature

What’s this? Another Non-MSPA, So soon after the last two? Also, the first year since 2017 to have atleast 3 NON-MSPA Fanadventures???????? Insane. I guess that makes sense, though. 2021 was the year that everybody wanted to have a break from Homestuck properties, so just like in 2017 when people were still reeling from the ending of Homestuck, in 2021 it also felt like Homestuck stuff was truly dead. And since nobody wants to read Homestuck stuff anymore, you get to have these neat other fanadventures that might not have gotten that much traction in the first place. Or maybe there’s some other variable that I’m not noticing that accounts for why there was only *6* Fanadventures that were non-MSPA related on my Spreadsheet from 2018-2020. But whatever. CAVE CREATURE TIME!

I love how deliberately monochrome everything is (no, not that Monochrome). Stuff like a limited pallet goes a long way into sucking me into the story. The UI buttons for “Favourite” and “RSS Feed” also have the same monochrome treatment which is a really neat detail to me.

The Waters Inside - so, I became briefly obsessed with caves with past week. It started with learning about the Devil’s Hole pupfish, an extraordinary species which I found some great informative YouTube videos on. Then I moved on to a YouTube documentary on the filming for “Ancient Caves” in Devil’s Hole Cave (different from the Devil’s Hole itself). Then I watched a bunch of videos about caving gone wrong. I think I’ve mostly gotten it out of my system, but I had to make some cave art, so here you go!

A scene from the Smurfs fanfic Cave Creature, which is the best and most in-character Smurfs fanfic ever. Read it right now. It's SO good.
