#art

a sketchy drawing of an anthropomorphic cat using white lines on a black background. they have been cut in half, their legs closer to the viewpoint as the top half of their body lies past their feet. they stare upwards, cyan blood pooling around their torso and hips. a magenta X cuts across the image from top to bottom centered on the cat's right eye. any blood the X crosses over is red underneath its lines. also in magenta, there is the text "why wont you get up" over the center of the image

A cat pushes a glass off the counter. Text reads "because maybe it'll be different this time."

ink smears #oc #art

a closeup drawing with a letterboxing effect of my cat oc making finger drawings out of ink spots on an invisible surface (a cross on the bottom left, a random squiggle on the bottom right, and a frowny face on the top right which he has his finger on). he wears a white buttoned shirt and a black tie.

I gotta start making art more often so strangers have a reason to want to pay me

I feel this, an artist I really liked (banessquik) vanished a few years back. They drew art of my luxio that I still use as a reference image sometimes lol

#art #oc #sona

A drawing of my sona, a white anthropomorphic cat furry with a long tail and a black X marking over their right eye. They're standing, leaned backwards with their right hand in a 🤟 gesture while wearing a dark blue shirt and black pants. The background is purple with small doodles and symbols scattered across it.

This is my Catfolk character from a campaign back when he was a teenager.
His name is Shibutaï.

While he was initially created for 5e, Pathfinder 1st Edition ended up being his time to shine.

they're just the best evolution line okay

a digital drawing of the pokémon luxray, shinx and luxio. Shinx is peeking out from between luxrays legs, and luxio is following up behind them. There's a square of blue sky and white clouds as the background

This is not to say Silksong isn’t fun, but there are aspects of the game that are intended to be hostile. There are areas of the game that are intended to be brutal. You’re not pointing out flaws by saying it lacks quality of life features, you are pointing out tools it’s using to tell its story

zypher @zzypher.bsky.social · 13d

A game does not make every design decision hoping the player will think “this is fun!” A game makes design decisions to say what it wants to say. Yes, sometimes what it wants to do is just be fun, but this is not always the case, nor *should* it be.

Coming from someone who hated rain world for the first few hours I played it, there is meaning and value in struggling through a game that has little interest in what’s Fun and is more concerned with expressing its own vision to its players. Playing it expanded my appreciation of the whole medium

I’ve been asked about this twice so I’m going to elaborate because I have actual thoughts on this:
I think rain world is a game that teaches you to find enjoyment in a world that isn’t “fun” per se. I think the only way to Like rain world is to be able to come to terms with its hostile design.

@ everyone who thinks silksong is unfair and mean and cruel and whatnot, you should play rain world
