Seriously, I would deeply appreciate all the support this can get. I spent over a decade on this passion project, and released it completely for free - it is really struggling for visibility, especially now as downloads begin to dwindle. I don't want to see it vanish into obscurity. Thanks.

Curse Crackers is the only major release I've played from you guys so far, and it was quite the treat!

A personal favorite of mine is actually Oathbind! She doesn't DO a whole lot, but her design and attitude really clicks with me.

We're doing this now? Sure, alright. Let me strike while the iron is hot for once.

#DeltaruneSpoilers #DeltaruneChapter4

The UI from Fire Emblem: Fates, depicting the pivotal moment where Corrin decides whom he will side with in the war between Hoshido and Nohr. At the bottom, a fourth option, labeled "Susie's Idea" (With her battle UI image from Deltarune next to it), has been added.

No, actually, I didn't!

I didn't even know you could cancel the chopping animation. ...I've found like two buttons in this game that do things other than walking.

The first round of this contest has officially begun! Join the server and design a character to fit any of the four categories to enter!

An advertisement for the 2025 Undertale AU Contest. It's comprised of a series of snapshots of backgrounds from Undertale and Deltarune, each with a card suit naming its respective character design category, a brief description of that category, and the vague outline of a character related to that category in the center. They read as follows:

"HEARTS - Redesign a character for a 'SETTING CHANGE' AU!" The background is Snowdin Town. The silhouette in the center is that of Sans, wearing what appears to be a gas mask.
"DIAMONDS - Redesign a character for a ROLE-SWAP AU!" The background is the Last Corridor. The silhouette in the center is that of Papyrus, edited to wear a hood with a single illuminated eye, in a rather transparent reference to Underswap.
"SPADES - Design a new character to RULE a new Dark World!" The background is Castle Town. The silhouette in the center is that of the King of Spades.
"CLUBS - Design a new...BACKGROUND character?!" The background is the Scarlet Forest. The silhouette in the center is that of the original Starwalker.

I've been kicking myself for leaving Scramble Saga unfinished for YEARS.

If nothing else, I've loved finally getting to show off the ideas I had back then...!

E-Clare @eclarearts.bsky.social · Apr 12

A bit off topic from my usual, but if any of you are familiar with the Undertale AU I used to work on w/ @chaosfantazy.bsky.social, Scramble Saga, we've recently been putting together a write up on everything we weren't able to make it to in the comic proper.

strawberry picking season's coming up 🍓

Cadence (Crypt/Rift of the NecroDancer) and Madeline (Celeste) are strawberry picking on a sunny day. They've found an enormous strawberry in the field. Cadence leans over it, while Madeline kneels on the ground to check it out. A full basket of regular-sized strawberries sits on the ground between them.

Faded Ribbon had something unusual going on with its description later that same play session, too (I assume this is supposed to say "1 in 10", replacing the usual 1 in 4). I wonder if these two things are related?

Faded Ribbon, a Joker from the Balatro mod "Undertale", in the shop. Its description reads "Glass Cards have a nil in 10 chance to be destroyed."

CHAOS_FANTAZY @chaosfantazy.bsky.social · Mar 19

Hey, played a couple rounds of the mod today and had a pretty good time!

Wanted to report a bug, though: The description of Cloudy Glasses says "Glass Cards can no longer break," yet the first Glass Card I played while I had it broke immediately.

After only ever seeing this guy in Cap'n's concept art and sprites, it's real nice to see them brought to life like this!

Weird though this is to say, it makes me really happy to see you guys know your limits when it comes to your stretch goals. Seen too many Kickstarters promise the Moon and then fail to deliver!

Looking forward to the game now, for sure.

Pretty good so far! I'll say that, from the levels in the demo, jump height feels like by far the most important attribute (For avoiding enemies, etc.), and aside from that, characters feel pretty same-y?

But the core gameplay feels good, and I'm looking forward to what else the game has in store!

I feel like a lot of people have been sleeping on this game because it's freeware. Make no mistake, this is worthy of being a commercial product. I've 100%'d it, and it has all the rustic charm one could ask for from an indie platformer.

Please consider playing it.

Thanks again for considering my entrant!

For posterity, here's the original design pitch of Orange Dummy:

#MegaMan #RobotMaster #PixelArt

A submission to the upcoming Mega Man Color's robot design contest. Depicted is an orange robot resembling a combat training dummy. It has a muscular humanoid torso with a gem in the center, supported by a stand and a circular face devoid of features.

Accompanying this is text describing the submission, reading:
"ORANGE DUMMY - MARTIAL ARTIST TRAINING ROBOT
Controls an array of hands detached from their body to block and launch a variety of attacks, to facilitate technique training!"

Below are some hypothetical style variants of the character:
Real Dummy: The original depiction of Orange Dummy, with a featureless face.
Joe Gazer: As Real Dummy, but a small visor in the center of the face bearing a single eye, resembling a Sniper Joe, is present.
Tosanaizer: Instead of a blank face, it has a combat training helmet, eyes and a mouth resembling the head of Tosanaizer V.
Blind Master: A more humanoid take on the character's head, having a small mouth and a blindfold tied over its eyes. This variant has its array of detached hands brighter, resembling energy projections more than physical objects, and bear small eye markings in the center of their palms.
