Updated the character sprites for this project a few years ago. Tried to hit a sweet-spot between the PSX and SNES look using more of the latter's palette restrictions. X is fully animated and works in some test levels. Maybe I'll demonstrate that some day.

👁️ WARNING 👁️
Despite attempts at strict containment by Heartblade Interactive and censorship by ratings agencies and media outlets - a public demo version of the banned 1995 CD-ROM ‘Forbidden Solitaire’ is being leaked to the public this Friday on Steam.

Hey! I might be taking more commission requests in the future. I've finally decided to (finally)set up my vgen and would like to focus business through that, instead.

I'd appreciate the follow to help me get verified!

After last night's stream, I have only 2 Coms so my availability is WIDE open.
My coms are wide open and I don't wanna stop the productive momentum I've got going!

The thought of having enough cash for bills this early in the month is too good to pass up.

Hit me up on Discord for an estimate!

Nobody really answered. They just commissioned me, instead, lmao.

Anyway, I can take a few more slots if you're interested!
Mm, starting off the year with probably needing to do some emergency comms for anyone interested.

If you ARE interested, please let me know what kind of comm you'd be looking for between:
Twitch emote static/animated
Twitch assets
Sketches
Figure drawings

Thanks!

Owlboy is so realistic that D-Pad added GTA6 to Otus's cloak, which 99% players will never notice.

Let me be clear.. EVERYBODY who has admin or mod privileges in ANY discord server that is even remotely adjacent to gamedev needs to @ everyone about what's going on, and they need to do it YESTERDAY. More ppl got caught up in this, coulda been avoided. Dont click links from ANYONE w/o interrogation
@rittzler.bsky.social (creator of Pseudoregalia), has had their Discord and email hacked and is linking to a virus in disguise. If you see anything linking to a game called "Furfall", DO NOT engage with it. It's not made by Rittz and isn't a real game (it's a Remote Access Trojan) DO NOT CLICK IT.
