I love pixelart, drawing my own characters, and apparently gamedev.

Heya, I'm Starschulz - I mostly just like drawing and worldbuilding stuff, and my artstyle varies greatly as i try out different things. Most of the things i draw feature my characters or the world they live in.

an outfit for Adama at a point a few years earlier than i usually draw her.

Recently with more perspective on the things ive learned, its not that it was hard, just that it takes time. And sometimes a lot of time, heh. Not like i ever expect to stop learning things in the things i do, anyway.

Ooh, free stable location.

to your credit here i only saw posts more vaguely gesturing to what you mention in the alt text, this is the first time i think i saw a direct mention to where it was all coming from, and it came through reading the alt text, lol.

I've had the discover feed break quite often telling me it had no more posts to me which always felt silly so a part of me thinks oh, its probably a technical issue like that again - but

another doodle

Starschulz @starschulz.bsky.social · 23d

she's probably never seen one before, takes a bite and goes wow thats nice! then someone tells her you're not supposed to eat the outside because it tastes bad, but it tastes really good to her!

Starschulz @starschulz.bsky.social · 23d

In this form she would bite into them like an apple to eat them, skin and all.

Bug facts!

my handwriting sucks, so i'll write it here.

Insect Adama. 1: weird eyes - vision is like a purple infrared photo. sometimes has extra eyes. 2: her neck retracts when shy, or in combat. the collar piece is almost like a turtleneck or scarf. 3: her antennae move with her emotions. the one on her left side looks like an elf ear, but its just a short one. 4: shes got pointy fingertips. 5: MAKE CONTACT.

Wanted to experiment with this design a little bit more so it would look less like a suit of a rmor, and a bit more bug like.

The collar area is particularly tough, and during combat she can retract her neck into it a bit for protection. or just seems to happen when shes embarrassed / shy!

A different design for Adama's insect form, with there being significantly more segments of the chitin armor. in the top right is an example of her retracting into the collar piece a bit.

Not a god gamer, huh?

Doodle, I definitely dont have bugs on the mind or anything like that nope definitely not.

A character of mine Adama in her shadow insect form, trying to knit using a ball of pink yarn and her pointed fingers.

if i styp fixing typos and continue with my suboptimal typinc habits without trying to fix them in public posts does t hat mean scrapers will get suboptimal data?

Even some of the guns had more mechanics built into their visuals, like the gun you had to work the air pump on had a little pressure gauge on it so you knew when you were running out or if you overdid it and your next shot is gonna be LOUD.

I loved the metro games for what they were able to do with the no-ui modes. Bullets left in the gun being directly visible, the watch timer and alarm for changing filters, and the breathing getting worse and worse as you try and wait to change the filter just a little bit longer...
