bit of a progress update

ive taught myself more music theory and animation techniques and recolored my sprites to appeal to the eyes more. also started animating in 12 fps and smoothing my other anims too.

sour note: college starts in 4 days e.e

im happy about the progress ive made in my game (hint hint- 2 week streak on git). id share more about what ive done but i dont wanna reveal all my secrets ;) lets just say things feel more lively. also ive definitely got lore planned for this game, but i aint sharing that til its finalized.

smear frames are fun. ive started messing around with them in my animations and they definitely add a layer of fluidity

reorganizing an entire project because it is an absolute mess

id love to make more digital art. it was relaxing. i used to be an artist until i made game dev my whole thing. and im not planning on changing that because game dev is my passion. but maybe i could make some digital adaptations of my pixel art from time to time.

June 28, 2025 at 9:45 AM
i was initially thinking of making a dragon-dolphin hybrid cause dolphins are pretty sick and dragons are sick as well but i might change it if i have any better ideas

hoi folks im back

im thinking of rebranding so i can use my name on other platforms too (its kind of hard to get the name "chirper"). maybe something more professional too in case colleges/employers look at my profile.

then later on ima change this pfp because i made it in ~10 minutes on paint.NET
