It's summer! (shush, the "it starts on June 20th" crowd)
I decided to start a series of touhous in summer outfits. I won't be drawing all the characters, just the ones I can come up with a good design for. First one is Youmu. The ice cream that she can't eat is next to none!

making steady progress on merpworld. the end is a tangible, achievable distance away if i don't give up. not really sure how to market something so personal.

trying to make peace with this thing receiving more negative reviews than i am used to. art should be repulsive to some people.

Make sure your RPG battle transitions, scene composition, and attack animations are at least as cool as this Taiwanese DOS RPG from 1995

Yo! We made a submission to another Vinesauce game jam. And just like always, I'll be having it where whoever gets the highest score will receive a free bootleg game especially since the jam is bootleg themed
Score submissions end when judging ends on 4/28

WIP of adventure zone gameplay.

completing each screen will get you some loot, and a choice of the next path to take until you reach the boss at the end.

(if this looks scary, don't worry! food buffs can make you very overpowered - and adventure zones are entirely optional anyway.)
