I loved painting this love of herbs and plants with gouache. I need to get back to painting more traditionally! Weird thing how often I say that and it always gets lost in all the todos... Which is your fav? These illustrations are included in my art book"Beneath the leaves"on Kickstarter.

Today we reached the 30k stretch goal of my art book's Kickstarter campaign "Beneath the Leaves"! The book will now also include printed endpapers! The next Stretch goal will be this DIY door to cut out and stick somewhere in your home to invite small people to live with you<3

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

The second stretch goal is unlocked! All the backers of my art book "Beneath the Leaves" will now get 3 postcards sized 21x21cm ! Big thanks to all who pledged<3 Help unlock the next stretch goal for everyone :D

Mimics. Everyone knows them. In Under the Island, they're on the tougher side but bury a few bombs and turn the battlefield into a minefield, and they're a piece of cake. Do you love or hate mimics in video games? if you like what you see wishlist link in the comments 👇

I wasn’t sure what to post, so here’s some ridiculous stuff you can do with a coconut and a bomb in Under the Island. 🎮💥🥥 #gamedev #videogames #indiedev We’re pretty dependent on Steam wishlists, so if you want to support us, link in the comments!
