First test of animated tilesets for the Forsaken Sands area.
This is a mashup of a couple tilesets right now, in future it will be jagged cliffs, lighthouses, and abandoned aquaculture.

Taking a while to address performance issues, I'm not sure if it's because I'm using a bootleg frankenstein'd linux machine or not but it should damn well run on a potato by my standards!

I made an enemy spawner, slapped the Graven Beast's heart on it, and now I've been using it as kind of a test dummy.
I should really get back to work. 😅

I'd be very grateful if someone on Bluesky noticed my art! I'm an experienced illustrator and also a theater artist. It's difficult for me to master a new social network. I'd be very happy to meet you all! Let's be friends!🙏🏻

Testing out pre-rendered backgrounds. Not sure if this is the way to go, but it was pretty simple to build out this small level.
There's definitely drawbacks, but it does look pretty.

QOL: mini-map
This feature is quite old, but it was removed from the demo version because it wasn't ready yet. I still need to polish it up, though :).

No new animations yet, but I am building out the map.
Could this be a small metroidvania type of map?
