Sometimes when I decide to do something, I commit to doing it in the most absurdly overproduced way I can muster that also ends up pushing the boundaries of what I've made before. This is one of those times. Art Fight attack on @saltynametag

Howdy Folks! It's been around a month since the last proper teaser for SokoBARN, and I've slowly been chipping away at the mountain of sprites that need to be made for the upcoming update. Right now, spriting wise, I would say that only a few more brand new things need to be made and only a small handful of tweaks to be made, as far as I'm aware. Implementation wise, there's still a lot to be done, and as such, this was all made by hand in Aseprite by just slapping the tiles down where they need to be.

One of the biggest things coming with this update are objects with directionality, which you can see in the image! It wouldn't be fun to spoil all of them, though, so some of what is being cooked up is going to be a secret for now!

Since the last teaser, though, we decided that adding just a single new set of puzzles wasn't going to be enough of an expansion to the game. Thus, I am proud to announce that Update 2 will be more than doubling the size of the game, and that's in more than one sense! The update, when it releases whenever we feel that it is ready and we've ironed out the bugs, will be the culmination of several months of hard work towards not just implementing everything we couldn't in the original Game Jam version, but also adding some stuff that was conceived shortly after. We still have more ideas, but because this is a passion project for all of us, work is slow & we aren't making money off of it.

Decided to do another UNDERTALE-themed fanart animation, this time featuring the titular Patrick from one of my favorite puzzle games, Patrick's Parabox!

If you didn't, now you do. Specifically, I'm working on sprites for an update to that game, which me and some others released last December and put out an update for in March.

To celebrate some recent progress made on this project, here's a sizable teaser of sprites made for our improved level editor!

Just a handful of recent commissions & projects, ranging from the start of this year to around the end of March.

For Terramundi_:

This is a Fire Emblem styled animation I was commissioned for. Definitely one of the most time consuming, difficult, and tremendously rewarding projects I've worked on recently. It took about 14 hours, a lot of studying the GBA Fire Emblem games, and some realizations that I tremendously underestimate how much work goes into some of the stuff I make

For exy_slimesder:

This was just a small, simple slime-themed sub alert for this client. Nothing much to say about it other than I ended up scrapping and redoing about four hours of work.

For whokilledkenan:

Again, a simple little alert, this one was a "surprise me" commission so I took a look at who they were, what they did, and decided to make this based on the info I had and the info I was given.

For LilouClary (not a commission!):

This was a project I've been working on, on-and-off since February! I turned a previous client/friend's Minecraft skin into a functional 3D VTuber model, with the side benefit that it also works in-game with the Figura mod. The pipeline for doing this was Blockbench (to make the model, exported as .obj) -> Blender (import the obj, make an armature, bake the textures/materials, do some blendshape stuff, export as .fbx) -> Unity (to use the UnityVRM plugin to go from .fbx to .vrm, it's a vrm0 model due to how I built it)

Fanart I made for a Vtuber friend. This took about 3 hours to make 8 frames, but it's really fluid and I'm really proud of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I have no internet right now and am short about $100 to pay the bill. Support would be greatly appreciated:
