Wizard seal miniature based on @dranag0n.bsky.social's OC. When they were discussing D&D on stream, I had the idea to make their character.

Trying to get out of my creativity pit, I created Okiri Village from the Obojima D&D book with a visual style based on the Legend of Zelda Windwaker. #obojima #zelda #3Dart #environment

Had to put my dog down. She couldn't walk anymore and she was in so much pain that she couldn't wag her tail. It's been a horrible year. Please be patient until I can feel motivated to continue again. Sorry.

Sorry for the lack of updates to BKGRR recently.

Remodeling my basement, my childhood dog‘s showing signs of twilighting and my grandma having a stroke in the course of the last few weeks has been rough on my motivation.

Bree from Bree's Mercantile in Okiri. She's from the #Obojima D&D campaign setting.

No, I don’t plan on keeping old sound clips in.

I'm remixing release and prototype dialogue to flesh out the game's lack thereof. #BanjoKazooie. What's your thoughts?

Here's an example:

My grandma had passed away today. If not for her owning a Nintendo 64 with Banjo-Tooie, I don't think I'd be who I am today.

Thanks for everyone who supported me and for their condolences. When I'm emotionally ready again I'll continue my projects.

Doing translates for BKGRR and finding the actual names in other languages is fun. For instance: Rat-a-tat Rap is:
FR: ATTAQUE EN PIQUÉ
DE: SCHNABELSPRUNG
ES: GOLPE RATATATÁ
IT: L'ATTTACCO A MITRAGLIA
JP: キツツキアタック

No, I don’t plan to make 2D areas.

For anyone interested what the dialogue was:
"THE ORACLE WILL SAY THAT CAULDRONS ARE FOUND TO CUT LONG JOURNEYS INTO SHORT TRIPS. ASK NO MORE ON THIS SUBJECT."

It wasn't used in the prototype like many other Oracle strings, a leftover from Grunty's Curse, I assume.

Jiggywiggy's Temple concept art for BKGR Reimagined. #BanjoKazooie.

Warp Cauldrons were once planned, as there is unused dialogue in the prototype about them. I think having a Warp Silo situation would be nice once you complete the level.

The idea is to emulate objectives rather than squeeze them all into the same world space. I think adding new subareas helps create the limitations from the original while also giving a unique spin.

Collapsing Tunnel concept art for BKGR Reimagined. #BanjoKazooie

I think this is the only direct reference to Banjo-Tooie original to BKGRR. Using the sing-a-long pad outside the tunnel, Banjo must navigate through it within the time frame or be kicked out.

My attempt to add a time-travel gimmick.

One of the things I want to do is emulate challenges from all versions of the game. That's why Vinyls, Vinyl parts, Memorabilia and Cheato Pages exist. They take up the challenges that would otherwise been scrapped.

Redrew Mr. Pants while looking at references this time. I wasn't happy with the initial attempt so I went back to it.

Added TheGrybo on as a composer. Using their tracks and the tracks from !!!!!, I have finished Cottage Cliff Farm's OST in preparation for Demo 1. Other updates is localization and pre-planning as well as game design doc. #BanjoKazooie

*I have a finished Cottage Cliff Farm's OST.
I didn't do anything except network with people and got permission to use their music.

Does this sound like Banjo-Kazooie dialogue for a boss? BKGR: Reimagined will cover cut content. The mad cow only has a single line referencing her from the Jinjo Oracle via scrapped dialogue. #BanjoKazooie

I'm re-adding scrapped dialogue for BKGR:Reimagined and translating it with DeepL, if it already has an existing piece of dialogue, I'll tack it onto the preexisting translation.

Anyone who speaks any of these languages, does the translated dialogue read OK? #BanjoKazooie

I'm not usually a digital 2D art person. But I took Wil Overton's concept art for Fast and the Furriest and digitally painted it. #BanjoKazooie

Uncolored is the original.
