Price of Love 2 This painting is dedicated to one of my family's cats; Harrison. He was diagnosed with cancer in his spleen in early April, and we let him go on June 26th of this year. Despite being a grouchy little bastard, we was a part of our family, and we loved him dearly. I'll miss you, bud.

As an artist, I can feel myself needing a lot of room for improvement. I need to read and study up on more art books, get in the grind for experimentation, and honestly, I would like having genuine critiques and discussions instead of JUST compliments from friends. PLEASE.

A big issue that i see with a good portion of my redesigns is that they're very stylistically inconsistent. Sometimes they have too much detail, sometimes they look like they're too realistically proportioned. Sometimes they lack dynamic posing. And some I just have a need for completely redoing.

I don't usually make posts like these since there are a bunch of "ameteur gamer reviews" between here and the hellsite, but this is something I've felt for a good while and I haven't seen any other people share my opinions outside of a few discord servers. ...so. Dark Pals. What the fuck, guys.

-explaining itself. This is gonna be a bold statement, and I hadn't done my full research on the matter, BUT...just from the presentation, the designs of both the creatures and the location itself, and the pure randomness, Dark Pals reads to me like if ChatGPT generated a mascot horror game.

I haven't seen anyone else point out how awful this whole thing is, and it really feels like the game is trying to distract you from it by adding in not one, not two, but three Youtuber cameos just for the sake of it. I love CoryxKenshin, but it doesn't mean anything if he's a character in it.

-head. Who in their right mind thought that would be a pleasing design? It's too ridiculous to be a threatening monster, and it's too distressing to be appropriate as a mascot, you've got to ask yourself "who is this thing made for??" And if that's not enough, the motivations are lost on these-

-things too. Outside of the living spider paint gun that accompanies you to be the token gimmick, these two creatures are the only things that you meet and they flip between wanting to kill you and wanting to help you vaguely progress at random. Like, everything is so confusing and doesn't bother-

There is little to no explanation as to who the player character is or why they're in this...Willy Wonka liscenced asylum, I guess??? It's like a condensed mish-mash of set pieces present in Poppy Playtime all jumbled together, and you just walk through them without a clear reason.

And that's not even getting into the "monsters" themselves. They've got to be the weirdest, ugliest designs I've seen. Like, you got the giant dog from Hotel Transylvania with weird buttons for teeth, and the "piece de resistance," a giant baby homonculus with a stomach mouth and a pacifer for a-

People back in 2023 thought that Banban was a low for mascot horror, but I think this...THIS feels like more than a new low. More than anything, it's the peak of everything wrong with mascot horror. This game, even with the privilige of watching it on Youtube, is just pure nonsense.
