sadly gamemaker seems to have some internal cap on this, i cannot set the reverb size to 99999

but at the engine's maximum reverb it sounds like her kitchen connects to an open cavern (behind the POV)

Her body died here 😞

An ink drawing of a cartoony ghost cat floating over a blood puddle surrounded by encroaching darkness. She is a character from a mini comic I made.

A photo of the same drawing with the pens used. Tombow fude and a Gelly Roll.

this had to happen eventually and has been on the agenda for a long while lol, just didn't do it until now because it was a big and scary and daunting task

Rain ◆ @orbitaldot.com · 9d

kinda crazy how it's usually the music that takes up most space in a game

... case in point, i rewrote mesmalie's music handling (mostly on a whim), and, well, looks like it was worth it

The most effective way to remove a broadhead arrow embedded in a human body is to push it through. Attempting to pull it out will only further devastate the surrounding tissue.

To begin healing, then, the violent act must be completed.

an illustration of two characters. on the right, an armored knight wearing a close helmet with yellow horns raises his greatsword in the air, ready to swing. a great white arrow, glowing golden, pierces through his chest from the back. on the left a small invisible boy faces the knight, one gloved hand reaching out to him and another holding the arrow protruding from the knight's chest. his earth-tone clothing and green hat appears to be floating on air. he is crying, his tears also appears floating on his invisible face. the illustration has a cobalt blue palette, a stylized golden frame, and the main source of lighting is the arrow's glow.
