(And of course, if you're still not quite sure, you could always drum up some titles and poll your audience. You know, see what they react to first, or what they imagine upon first encounter of those names.)

I better head to bed now, but I hope I was able to help! Good luck! ✌🏾

"All-in-one" sounds appealing to me. I like having one good tool. Well. So long as it's not overwhelming, lol. You've mentioned repeatedly how "customizable" it is as well, so maybe that's a keyword to float too?

Something that speaks to both functionality & value like the above 2 will work well. +

Oh yeah, then I'd definitely use "particles" in the title if it's more accurate. As you said, it's the name of the system.

Anything else about your tool that makes it stand out from similar ones? One more adjective in the title might do it. I'm tempted to say "dynamic", but what made you make this?

So far, what you've mentioned is all in the context of environmental vfx. I'd personally include the word "environment" or "environmental" in it. And then any synonyms for that word, you can add in whatever platform's tagging system.

That Game & Watch-esque look is amazing. Wow. Even the LCD halation effect! Despite growing up with these displays, I've completely forgotten them in the age of OLEDs.

Wishlisted. (I'll learn to get good at shmups πŸ˜‚βœŒπŸΎ)

experience it. Or it will stay unpleasantly, disruptively intense. Unaddressed. Ignored.

It's hard, especially because life goes on, and society will not slow down for just you in the way we all need as human beings. But if you can, carve that time for yourself. For vulnerability with trusted ones.

at times an unresolved feeling of frustration or confliction about a problem I've learned about him or myself, after the fact.

I say this to say, grief will be with you for a long while. It will dull with time, but for your own sense of well-being, allow yourself the space to safely and openly +

I lost mine 6 years ago. It was still an intense feeling for the first 2, 3 years. Never as intense as the day of the funeral, but there were things and people and ideas that just reminded me of him. I still tear up at the thought of him, even now, but it's appreciation that he was in my life, and +

God, Rory. I'm a complete stranger, so I don't want to come off overfamiliar

but

You are so funny and precious here?? Hello??? 😭 Now I need to watch your whole backlog! πŸ˜‚

Seeing how much fun you're having creating assets for your game is giving me the energy I need to tackle mine! πŸ™πŸΎ

I'm learning basic crochet stitches right now so I can help guide a child in my family who said they were interested in learning it as a hobby.

But I'm no crafts girl. Noooo no no. If there's a universal platonic ideal of a stitch, right now I am visiting from a different universe, lol

Of course! And yes I exist and am well! Feel free to shoot me a DM if you ever wanna talk art tips ✌🏾

Wrist is great for smaller/precise details requiring fine motor control, but elbow and even shoulder help w/ stabilizing stroke + giving you freer movement & energetic lines. Hope it helps! πŸ™πŸΎ

You've really improved since last I saw your art years ago! I'm so proud of you for sticking to it, Laby! πŸ™ŒπŸΎ

What's helped me draw "curvier" lines: I loosen up, draw from my elbow (instead of my wrist) & follow through my line in one stroke. For more gestural curves, I zoom the canvas out to draw.

Southern friends started mentioning "Piggly Wiggly" and "Buc-ees" around me. And I laughed at them. Because those aren't names for real places. On God's green Earth? They couldn't be.

But then they showed me the merch.

This is so funny. I saw them perform at the GALA Choruses Festival last year when I went with my choir.

This was /not/ the context I expected to prompt that reminiscence, lol

I'm working silently on tasks when my friend sends me the upcoming online pvp team fighter "Invincible VS" on Steam.

I need Omni-Man's win quote against Invincible to be "THINK MARK, THINK"
