I hold out hope that AI will tend to only make the most sanitized and beautified versions of things - so weird little guys will actually be a good indicator it’s not AI! πŸ™

Idk, I think getting a pulse check on if a story can be followed is understandable! That can be something you are really blind to, since you know the story already.

Just gotta know what feedback to take and what to leave behind.

Glad you got to have some fun gaming time! (And that timberborn was there for you during the dark times…)

A post by c.a.t.y.a.y that reads, "I wonder what my art could've been if I didn't quit". Iggy responds, "I wonder what it will be if you start again"

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

Feels like that line between real and surreal

I was really blown away by the art and mood of this trailer when I saw it. Great job to you and your team! πŸ™Œ

Have to say the name Ribbert is just πŸ‘Œ

Aww, thank you! I am partial to his little smile πŸ˜„

I have always found this problem rage inducing and counterintuitive like you said, but I feel like I finally understand it after seeing this chart. πŸ˜†

Love all the detail you put into your word building! The β€œtechnofossils” gave me a good chuckle. πŸ˜„

I was expecting human remains to be an index fossil of the Anthropocene - but I see the hint about the microplastics. What a twist! ✨

There are people out there who make it, probably a lot we don’t even know or see because they put most of their time into art instead of social media - I hope one day we can learn from the wisdom of these folks.

I used to watch these videos but I eventually realized they’re a trap, especially when the content creators entire video library is β€œhow to make money as an artist” vs actually doing art.

Almost like the desire to live as an artist is greater than the desire to buy art… 🫠

I find when you work so hard for so long, it feels uncomfortable to not be working. It’s normal! It takes some effort to make yourself relax, oddly enough πŸ˜† worth it though! 😊

Ooooh that is so fun! Thank you for sharing! πŸ˜„

Feels a little more whimsical and less deadly than a kelpie, which is nice πŸ˜†

I love the flow! 🌊

Also, KELPIEEEEEE!!! 😍 (or please let me know if it’s a different creature, I love mythology!)

Such pleasant shapes. πŸ’š Is it digital? It’s got a really traditional feel to it! 😊

Awwww, I love his little butterfly nose! Quite a feat to make a star nose mole look so adorable imo πŸ˜†β€οΈ

Making me tear up… it’s amazing how many of these visuals instantly bring the emotion I experienced watching these scenes back to me. It was such a strong and beautiful thing that it’s still in my heart.

The vision and creativity of these artists is amazing.

Honestly baffled how anyone could interpret that statement as gatekeeping.

Feels like saying β€œplease don’t steal my work” and the response being β€œHOW DARE YOU!!!”

To this day Novempurr is the only challenge I’ve ever completed, so I would love to see it happen again!
