You can't leave Sharkdwell without some goods to trade! Here's what you can take with you. 🐚

• Algae Soup, part of a seafolk's balanced diet.
• Musical Conchs you can listen to.
• Mechanical Legs used by sharks to walk on land.

Which of these would you stock up on first? 🐟

A fan-art of Captain Jawline, a blue shark in a brown coat and with steampunk adornments, in a very stylised sharp art style with a grinning expression on his face.

Capt. Jawline is pretty much the face of Townseek, and he's been a fan favourite for a while now! ✨ Here's some of the amazing art that folks have made of him over the years. 🦈

Art credits to @mentitakirby.bsky.social @shoesbedrawin.newgrounds.com @amuerion.bsky.social and @umsey.bsky.social! 💙

Capt. Jawline is your friend, mentor and boss, in that order! Now retired from sailing, he's the merchant at Sharkdwell! 🦈

A descendant of Sir Reginald Sharkingston, he needs your help finding the lost pages of his journal. Could there be a secret reason for his request? 🤔

Google gives the option to have the data stored on the EU, but even then, the idea of non-US business depending on the US is becoming more and more concerning over time.

I've been looking into moving whatever I can to either EU locations or providers, but sometimes options aren't as solid yet. 🙇

Welcome to Sharkdwell! Home of sharkfolk, airships, mechanical legs and to you. 🦈

A formerly unremarkable town deep into the ocean, it became prosperous with the discovery of Sharknite by Sir Reginald Sharkingston. This is where you begin your travels. ⛏️

Pack your goods and gather around, explorers! We're going on a Townseek tour! 🦈

Each week, we'll be spotlighting one of Explora's colourful towns. We'll meet their locals, learn their trades, and see what makes each place special. ✨

Get on your airship, and let's set sail! 🧭

It's absurd and dystopian that payment processors get to decide what we can and can't see on the internet.

That companies like Visa and Mastercard can use their enormous size to bully companies into taking stuff offline - based on the reactionary politics of a small group.

hey #portfolioday - here's a couple of my old favourites!

A cozy little shark bistro nestled among lots of plants.

A little harbor village of Gourdlets among a cozy grove of trees, carrying out various cooperative activities related to fishing and recreation, there are little colorful fish and a shark swimming peacefully in the sea.

Artwork created for an Intel Gaming deskmat entitled Sharkade. The scene depicts a large underwater shopping mall and convention center, vibrant and full of little sharks engaged in different activities. On the left, on the top floor, a shark and a dolphin compete in a Starcraft-style RTS championship, surrounded by fans. Downstairs, a bookstore houses a nook where young sharks in medieval costumes play tabletop RPGs. To the right, on the upper floor, two sharks play an FPS together in a gamer electronics and accessories store. On the level below, an arcade attracts attention: a shark dances on a rhythm machine while others enjoy arcade games. In the center, through the main entrance on the upper floor, new visitors arrive brought by a sea bus. On the first floor, between escalators, a bistro welcomes sharks who relax with their laptops or take photos near a coral garden full of little fish.

Happy #PortfolioDay! 🎨✨
