Hi peeps! The name's Gemma. I'm a filmmaker, animation enthusiast and caretaker of this rowdy bunch. I publish most of my work under the Niftihalo Studios label, but I’ll also do a little nonsense on the side now and then. If you enjoy 'cute sci-fi' and friendship-centric tales, stick around!

The main cast of comic/animation series, 'W.A.T.S.O.N Your Mind?' - Kyler, Greg, Trisha (and Booker on the TV)

Making up song lyrics when you can't remember the real ones.
#NSWYM

Booker pretending to sing into a marker pen like a microphone:
"Sweet dreams are made of fish, Who am I to kiss a flea, I travel the world in my dungarees, Everybody's cookin' a muffin~"
Kyler looking aggrieved and thinking, "This will be in my head for days..."

In what has become a weekly addition to the collab, this time it's Hanako from Harvest Moon 64! Remember her? ...no?

Her dress is incredibly simple but doing anything else would have been making things up. I didn't have much to go on! 🙃

Full body drawing of Hanako from Harvest Moon 64. She's incredibly... pink. And the long dress is making her look taller than I had intended. 🤨

Got mine done quickly this week =) Craig from Tree of Tranquility/Animal Parade!

He was a character who was left out of the collab in 2012... not this time! Welcome to inclusion, Craig. ¦D

In my case I was just sore that we didn't get to see how it would have been as an original game. But it turned out quite good for what it was.

Yup! and thanks for the great screenshot of it, too. I had wondered if the signature would be readable, and it is :D

If anyone's curious, the title of the piece was 'Mallard's Millions' by Jivi el Bee

Turns out my art is in a completely different area of Yooka Replaylee than I expected, but not with the title or artist name I gave it.

(is it a patchable thing, @playtonicgames.com ? I know it's early release and sometimes things like this can show up~ )

Ahh! It's really cool to see all your projects lined up, as well as the art people have done - lots of love for BHH. :D I love the logos for re:Peat and Batteryman

I know not having enough time to play your pile of video games is a big ol' first world problem, but I need to find at least half an hour a week to nibble into this backlog. #NSJournal

I like the added slight glitch effect there too

Awesome! Hope you enjoy it - looks like they did an impressive remix and polish.

I was tempted to get Yooka Replaylee because I have a discount from owning the original game, but I don't have a computer powerful enough to run the new one. 😂 #NSJournal

W.A.T.S.O.N Your Mind? keeps returning to the consideration of what it truly means to be a mature adult, though this is more a by-product of the story's main theme which is how creativity is integral to the human experience. #NSWYM

Does your webcomic have any recurring themes? What are some messages or motifs that your story keeps coming back to? Is it intentional for your story? - 🦁

Kyler and Trisha absolutely would have tried this at least once, as kids. (Not while their dad was home, though).
Poor Valerie.

Booker poses with a face like a Labubu doll. Kyler raises an eyebrow and asks "What are you doing?", Booker replies with a self-satisfied expression, "It's all the rage."
