🪲 ... and what flavor of encounter would this be? 🐞 ( trying to refine and experiment with this style more! this time featuring @bugbytegaming.bsky.social 's oggie and harmonia, from their VN life cycles~ ) #originalArt • #illust • #artPH

Once again toying with the idea of a Bug Boy themed game jam...... I must coerce you all to make bug boys for my wicked whims... take my hand. touch your antennae to mine. we must make bug boys... together

Played some more Wadanohara today, got up to the Samekichi flashback... My fav part of the game honestly; when I first played the game I really didn't like Samekichi until I got that flashback, and then I did a complete 180 on him. Gotta love a tsundere shark boy.

It's funny because for a long time Wadanohara was like, my FAVORITE rpg maker horror game. I would always rank it like, 5 out of 5. Going back to it years later and I do think a lot of my youthful marveling at the game has worn off, and there are more things I could critique about it.

But ultimately it is a story driven game where the RPG elements are largely secondary, and as someone who hasn't really played around with the battle mechanics in RPG Maker, I can't judge that much. And the art and character designs still hold up so well. Gorgeous game.

It seems like there is some sort of conflict happening between two of our neighbors in there but I managed to narrowly avoid being involved for now 🙏

Someone left all the washing machines full; after waiting 15 mins no one came so I emptied one of the machines and left the laundry on the dryers, hoping the person doesn't get mad >< I have such an anxiety around the laundry room after a woman got pissed at me for moving her laundry one time ToT

Maybe it's just me but I think if you live in a space with a community laundry room and you don't come get your laundry within 5 mins it is other people's right to move your laundry? If someone moved my laundry I would just feel embarrassed/guilty for inconveniencing them. Not mad??

Redesigns are underway... I don't wanna change Gabu too much, just wanna tweak his color scheme a bit because now Mei will be taking up the black and white stripes space.

two of my new ocs, for the same world as the one in fluff n gutz! theyre both patients. the first one is des, a vampire bat antique candle holder. he believes he has to upkeep a certain front to feel connected to his noble roots. the second one is animus, a sea angel plushie who turns into a ghost -

Out of curiosity... what do people who buy adoptables generally look for in an adopt when purchasing? Species, traits, details, accessories, etc... any sort of general stuff, I have dabbled in making adopts in the past but never sold any and would love a bit of thought process from ppl #adoptables

When I update Mei's design I also want to update Gabu's. For both of them I initially didn't actually base them on any specific species of mosquito/dragonfly, but I know what species I had in mind for the OC I based Gabu off, so I'd want to incorporate more of the details of that species into Gabu.

Again thinking about redesigning Mei... I think I'm going to at the very least draw what I would want his redesign to look like, and see what I think. Enough time has passed since I first published chap 1 of Bug Bites that I honestly just want to remake it and do all 5 chaps as one game.

Obviously I'm not great at juggling multiple projects or committing to a single project for a prolonged amount of time... but I do really want to share Mei and Gabu's story one day, and I feel like if I'm going to do that, I need to start fresh, rather than try to build off the stale base.

I'm probably not gonna do a full illustration a day for any art challenges this month, but I WOULD like to make do a small doodle/sketch for the Bugtober prompt list, just so that I'm still drawing things I want to draw amidst comms and stuff.
