Also, my current game project: Vikings on Trampolines. Its a co-op/versus brawler where you're vikings, you fight on trampolines, and balloons are sentient and evil.
In case you missed it, I designed some brand new Owlboy merch for the anniversary if you're interested.
We're planning new designs in the future, so suggestions are welcome!

So right as we finished the Owlboy anniversary livestream, my cat got hurt. I've been on cat watch pretty much 24/7 since then. Lottie is going to be just fine, though she's positively seething about having to wear a cone.

There's a certain irony that this Saturday is going to be a major day for me. D-Pad is launching our Newsletter, and we're doing our annual Owlboy anniversary stream.
...But I'm so busy preparing everything that I barely have time to hype it up

"Pillow deliveries pay well, but the region is suprisingly cold and require specialty footware to not slip on the ice once you get there. At least its easy to carry..."
Finished up the sketch I did. Possibly my final art of the year. Strangely, this the first time I've ever fully shaded Mira

Little #Zelda experiment. Think this was after the announcement of Link Between Worlds on the 3DS. I noted it would be interesting to do something more toy-looking. Ironically, the series' top-down titles would end up adopting a more toy-like aesthetic years later. Still like the mockup though!

The Legendary Axe concept mockup. Been a while since I made one of these. Research was tough. I have no connection to the game or the turbografx-16 whatsoever, but the final boss being a weird and unsettling merger of confused cavemen held together by an eldric mass was captivating.

Took me about a year to feel up to working on it again, but I'm finishing this tonight.
It's been a while, but I'm working on a new mockup. I'll admit, this one's a wild card. Frankly, if anyone were to guess the game, I'd be shocked

Tongues are like weird storybook creatures.
A cave slug that spends it's day shoving things into hydraulic presses, and if you rub something on its back, a giant gains knowledge about it.

The PC98 mockup started because I drew the most generic anime elf possible and wanted to test some rescaling. Turns out, I've done this EXACT thing once before. Last time I tried coding a dialogue system, I sketched a DIFFERENT generic elf with a face scar on her cheek... Elf = Dialogue box I guess?
