Reading an actual book for the first time in forever and actually enjoying it is something I didn’t think I would do

Okay, another thought; Kangaroos, and marsupials in general, don't have navels as they aren't placental mammals, but people like bellies so I figure it's still worth having on the model right?

A good question here, before I get too deep, is would people rather the avatar be plantigrade or digitigrade? Kangaroos are actually plantigrade irl, but is that what people would rather see on the avatar?

I could also possibly set it up to use either one hm...

All the fish are made by taking a 2D image and then I expand it into a 3D image, so I'm actually looking more for 2D art here! It didn't even occur to me to specify, sorry!

Unfortunately I won't be able to compensate anybody for any of these, but I will make sure everyone's work is credited in-game!

Manta Ray Bay By Bentoǃ (@beartong.bsky.social)
A great fishing interaction with fun things to buy with your profits. The world has so many great spots to explore, fish, or just relax and chat.

✨Just put out a little update to Manta Ray Bay that adds exp, levels, and new rarities to all the fish! ✨

I just wanted to add some progression for the people who want to play and collect more!

I also added some options to give support and donations!
