Bad at social media. Bad at bios. In Northern England. Currently making a tragicomic alchemical video game called Chymicalia.
Days of #Devmas: LOOKING FORWARD (2025 goals)

I'd like to get more opinions on the game, and more feedback! So, trying to upload regular new builds, and invite more people into the testing discord.

And keep posting stuff, so people know what the game IS. Need to make more gameplay vids.

Days of #Devmas: ELF ON THE SHELF. (Hide an elf in your game.)

Listen. Most of what I've made, historically, has been Morrowind fanwork of various flavours. Chymicalia is one of my rare NON-ELF projects!

but fine, here's vivec undergoing circular distillation.

Days of #Devmas - HAPPY ACCIDENTS.

My walk anims are non-existent. When I forget to change the character's direction before moving them offscreen, the stick-puppet effect gets even weirder.

Especially when it's Nim, and her silly dark glasses drama-flip makes her look like a meme.

Days of #DevMas for today: ENDLESS LOOP.

I tried posting little alchemical process animations before, but video wasn't working, so let's try that again. The alchemy equipment art is by the lovely @modernmodron.itch.io

(We're calcinating some bits of broken bottle that we found in the street.)

TRUST THE PROCESS: concept art vs final result

For this church background, I used a 3D town model to get layout angle shots, and combined with reference photos, Diva sketched and finished the scene. Then animations, finishing touches (and characters!)

The other reason I like this background is the big chimney provides an opportunity for shenanigans.
