After a long wait I finally got a new tablet to help out with the art.
Some art from day 1.
A few teething issues encounter with some hover drawing, that seemed to be nib sticking issue. Think it's been resolved and pretty happy with it now.

The Mystic Grove tank decorations are coming along now!!
Will be able to position them anywhere and toggle background/foreground.
Still need to sort out that z-popping. But just standard 2d #gamedev stuff...

This mini-game is finally starting to feel like a real thing! Just a few more productive days like today and it'll really start coming together.
Here's everything I added to the fish keeping mini-game today.

The first Holy Fish for Fishing Echoes!
Another Shadow Fish has joined the roster, along with a pet Clownfish to round out the day.
Getting back into it and shaking off the dust.

Tablets still dead, but the show must go on.
Three new fish for Fishing Echoes. Drawn with cramping hand and a mouse!
An Arcane fish that will teleport around to slip the hook, and a Shadow fish that will turn out the lights.

RIP. Pour one out for the fallen.
My trusty Wacom tablet just died.
If the second half of Fishing Echoes suddenly looks like it was drawn with a frozen fish… it wasn't. Probably.
#gamedev#tablet#indiedev
Don't "Let It Go"! Be sure to hold onto these frozen fish!
The Ice fish slows down the fight giving only one chance to hit the timing right, miss it and it will head for deeper waters.
