hello #portfolioday

Im a queer illustrator from the mountains of north carolina drawing flat fantasy. I've done work for mtg, videogames, beer labels, podcast art and socks, but my favorite work tends to be personal commissions.

2024 limited color dnd commission

a tiefling rocks back on the legs of a stool- consulting a tome for crafting recipes. materials for their task lay around their studio.

2025 limited color group commission

Inside a smokey dining room aboard a river boat pirate ship, a group of adventurers blow off steam. From left to right, an anxious squirrel has drunken to excess, a spirited otter teases them and toasts. A paternalistic skunk with a metal arm scolds them, while a delirious herbalist rabbit offers a solution, and the groups tinkerer, a sparrow, sits with an impulse of a food fight within reach.

2025 - crop from a limited tone fantasy family portrait

Two adventurers walk in the rain on a board walk in the woods, one with a bow at the ready, the other excitedly pulling her close. Their cat looks towards the foreground, where a dragonfly rests on a flower.

2024 full color commission

perched on a dumpster, a wolf in a heavy coat uses a small chunky laptop. Power lines extend into a rainy multicolored light shadow of a city behind him.

The problem with computer jobs is that it's all in your head. You can't touch or eat the code you write, it's too abstract. You need to find something to make with your hands if you want to stay okay

@benjaminsoule.bsky.social's new game Clockwise Knight is great, you gotta make yourself remember to actually use your different powers and abilities but when you get comfortable with it it's super fun.
I'm also partial to @adamatomic.bsky.social's stuff, Mole Mole and Dino Sort are great short fun!

Rémy🍬 @curseofremy.bsky.social · 2d

I get that, but also, it's the most fun when you give in to the limitations and try to make the best of them. Would be fun to see what you'd make with it if you ever try it!

Pico-8 has this strange power where you play a game made with it, and it makes you want to make your own game with it

Hello. Are you making a game or art that could in any way be described as "retro"? If so, I'd love to see it! Please reply below. (no AI stuff, thx)

Pico-8 is retro, right? kindof??
this is Remy's Flippin Dungeon, it's coming out, uh, when I'm no longer exhausted and I finally finish it. 😅

Rémy🍬 @curseofremy.bsky.social · 2d

it's a countdown before your powers can regenerate and it restarts every time you swing your sword. without understanding the game completely you can still plow through and get the ending after >10 days, but then it gets more interesting when you try to use everything you get for a better score

Rémy🍬 @curseofremy.bsky.social · 2d

I think the game makes a lot more sense when you understand what's going on and you manage to use your different abilities correctly. But yeah in this version a lot of stuff is under-explained or easily forgotten. (pico-8 constraints... 🥲) The drain thing is pretty important for example...

Here’s a peek at the current state of Dragon Fodder - my boardbuilder roguelite about feeding a very demanding dragon. The island grows busier each year as you place new farms, harbors, and shrines on the board.
Still tuning balance and upgrading visuals!
