Thank you @pastemagazine.bsky.social for - entirely correctly - naming Jentry Chau Vs The Underworld as one of the best TV shows of December 24! It’s up there with Squid Game, baby!

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

A screenshot from the game Arco.

It shows a kid riding a llama going towards a big tree. 

The characters are tiny compared to the world. All in beautiful pixel art.

It has a dialogue where the player is choosing to climb a cliff. Lots of plants and trees.

It is a combat scene, you can see the game's UI. Tizo, the main character, is fighting a bunch of bandits.

Itzae, one of the main characters, is in the middle of a town that's next to a big river. There's a boat floating there as well. The town is build on a rocky cliff, full of caves.

I joined bluesky recently so I didn't see this before.

We released Arco a couple months ago!

It's an anticolonialist mesoamerican-inspired "tactical RPG" with an original combat mechanic that's between turn based and real time.

Out now on PC and Switch, more info here arco.game

Fanart of the game Mouthwashing, character Swansea, a large older man with a yellow and red staff shirt, brutally punches Jimmy in the face, a man with greenish jump suit over a sweater, the antagonist of the game, blood splatter flying.

I really wish I understood social media better and could get more eyes on my drawings. I’ll crack it someday!

In the meantime, here’s a hooded crow—caw! 🪶🐦‍⬛

From paper 📝 to game 🎮: the Irori.

Also known as the "sunken heart of the house".

In some Japanese folklore this fireplace is where the spirit of the house resides.

Don't forget to keep yourself warm during the upcoming winter ♨️

I think the game that really cemented my desire to create games was Hollow Knight. If any game could be considered a poem, it would be that one.

A little cartoon drawing of me saying “Caitlin Rose Boyle is looking for work! Storyboards and revisions! Six+ years of experience at Nickelodeon, Netflix, and DTVA, with freelance for Titmouse, Cartoon Network, and Pixar.” My cats are drawn off to the side screaming “We’re so HUNGRY!”

I’m looking for work! 👁️👁️
I’m looking for storyboarding or revisionist positions, but I’m also open to work in games!
I’m available immediately - I’m fast, funny, and friendly, & I’d love to work with you! Help me feed my cats, they won’t stop screaming!

I’m not part of the team or anything, but I know the indie narrative-based game Miniatures was just released recently on Steam! Supposed to be really good!

One of my most ambitious pieces to date (along with my Seasonal Art!). I wanted to do Mucha Mermay, and I did it! I think. I had lots of fun and I’m tempted to do another Mucha style piece - maybe for next year’s Halloween…
