✿ & SO THIS AUGUST IS WASTED ✿

happy one year (and one month) anniversary to august ends! i couldn't get around to making something by the actual date but i wanted to commemorate it.

wishing a happy birthday to my clumsy, fumbling first attempt.

[ #rpgmaker #indiegame #ocart ]

A digital illustration of cedie from my game august ends.

cedie has her back turned to the viewer and a tense posture as she stares down at a demolished shrine and spilled candle by her feet.

in her hand is a wooden leg, clearly broken off the shrine. smoke is rising up from the extinguished candle, implying it was lit until she knocked it over.

Anemo, a red character with a big orange nose and a green anemometer on their head is stood in front of their spaceship.

Finding the animal "Lighthorse", which looks like a lighthouse with legs, and a head made out of transparent cones of light.
"Stands at the coastline to act as a beacon, however it has difficulty discerning a puddle from an ocean. said to be proud of its red stripes."

Inside the spaceship, the character Turbine, who is green and has buck teeth, is saying "They say if you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life. Seems I may be the only worker here."

Ahmad told me how much food costs in Gaza right now:

a simple meal for two (USD)

Cooking rice: ~$235
Cooking beans: ~$108
Total: ~$343

This includes processing fees Ahmad is forced to pay just to convert digital funds to cash.

He needs $500 to feed just himself and his wife a simple meal 💔

I feel like I'm fighting life alone, and pain just won't leave.
Everything drains me—even breathing feels heavy.
My heart can't take this weight anymore.
In this darkness, I only have you all.
You are my only lifeline in a world that let us down.🕊🤍

Fun bug for today: Loading a save game doesn't delete the old player, so if you know where you were you can go and kill your past self (Which also kills you)
