"Rogue with horrible bard energy who sounds ever-so-slightly like a younger, less weathered version of Ser Bronn of the Blackwater" isn't necessarily a role I'd ever foresee landing in the top 50 most popular games on itch (short-term, anyway), but here we are? 😆

(Thank you all! ✨)

Chance from "A Chance Encounter" looking surprised with his cheeks slightly flushed. He has fluffy ginger hair, orange eyes, and tanned/very light bronze (half-sun-elf) skin. He's been captioned "✨Anxiety✨"

⛓️‍💥 Want to b̶u̶l̶l̶y̶ help out a charming-if-pathetic rogue? Good news!

"A Chance Encounter" is out ✨now✨ as part of #O2A2, and I'm very grateful to have lent my face-noises to the elf himself—Chance!

Many thanks to the @fiendishfiction.bsky.social crew for having me!

Howdy, Fetch! The atmosphere here is intentional. This is a dark fantasy game, so we wanted to keep the art in theme with the tone.

If you're interested in more vibrant fare, we encourage you to check out Daimu, The Space Between Stars, and Nameless... and keep an eye out for our upcoming game!

As I push to engage more on bsky I'll be perusing/posting a backlog of art, starting with the character design lineup for my indie studio's upcoming supernatural dating sim (hopefully launching later this year), Occult Mingle. Enjoy!

Our artist just set up his own bsky... go give him a follow! In spite of recent... events... he's trying to find the motivation to post more and engage in more online communities. He'd be grateful for the support!

My D&D boy's current character arc is basically just both Flynn Rider memes side by side, so of course I had to draw it.

Above the sales goal, there is red text that reads: "15 more sales until we hit $5000 raised on the Fright Edition!"
