Thank you! The rottmnt and bl2 are still my faves and I do like my art from that time, but unfortunately I was given only 4 options, so maybe next time!

Hades 2 is a gorgeous, fun game! Unfortunately, it has plot.

"we want horror, but completely inoffensive horror without any literal, metaphoric or allegorical violence and which categorically refuses to engage with the most common forms of human trauma and/or genre conventions. so like, maybe there's a sad dude ghost at the skate park? yeah."

PLEASE help I think we're cursed to be doomed to the narrative

I just got my payment, and all of it was stolen, I'm speechless.. We didn't have money to begin with, my wife got sick badly during past couple of months, I'm trying to work hard to sustain our living bills and food, but bad things just seem to follow me no matter what.

Ah, they are adorable!

It may be a well hidden gem, but it's always nice to meet someone who knows about it! And to rewatch it while showing someone (even though it requires a certain mood)

tench (commissions open) @tench.bsky.social · 9d

I have heard of it, but never watched it

tench (commissions open) @tench.bsky.social · 9d

You should watch it! It's gorgeous, heartbreaking, with such a unique mood! I can't praise it enough, especially the animation

tench (commissions open) @tench.bsky.social · 9d

And you haven't even seen the animation yet! I can't recommend it enough

tench (commissions open) @tench.bsky.social · 9d

Talking about underrated gems with great music, have you ever heard of Kaiba (2008)?

Artists! Please show:

✨ the first piece you did in 2025
✨ your favourite piece of the year
✨ your most popular piece
✨ your most recent piece (I'm in a deep burnout so if I draw, which is a big if, it's mostly work I can't show sorry)
