Two side-by-side digital sketches of a giant mecha, the first being a refined one that's mirrored down the middle, and the second being a much more freeform one that shows humanlike gesture. Both use a classic gundam Red/White/Blue/Yellow/Black color scheme, with slightly desaturated reds and blues. Overall the robot has a very standard giant robot silhouette, just drawn to my particular tastes in mechanical design.

I have been CRAZY busy lately but I finally got a little time recently to do some personal art, so here's another iteration on Fortuna.

Right side was an initial sketch to figure out vibes, Left is a refinement on the ideas using the symmetry tool.

How Two Janitors Made One of the Yearโ€™s Most Charming RPGs โ€˜Kingdoms of the Dumpโ€™ reflects the democratization of video-game development.

Kingdoms of the Dump is one of the year's most charming RPGs, an Earthbound-inspired game set in a world made of trash, where you fight in landfills and heal with moldy sandwiches. Which is fitting โ€” it was made by two janitors.

Forgot to post this. Fixed the old elf to match the new elf for fun. Ears have been significantly upgraded.

A male Annaโ€™s hummingbird at the door. So nosy! ๐Ÿคฃ

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door.

This is who it was:

Just a few more days now and this will finally be definitively over... hard to believe it now. It's been so long.

But I'm thinking about what I'll do next. I want to take a break and do art and study other things.

Unless the game dev urge comes back so strong, I can only obey.

But we'll see.

21.11.2025 04:56 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 5    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

But I did have fun. I love these characters and I love the gameplay. There were tough times, but overall, I think that the current form of SER as it is now, while not perfect, is as good as it can be, for the circumstances that created it.

I'm satisfied ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ‘Œ

And let's not talk about all the art redos.... the main cast has gotten like, 2-3 redos each. Minus Solomos, who has endured with the same art from the day I drew him... I guess I struck gold there.

Maybe.

The other thing is to plan your development timeline better. SER's development from day one was a mess of old art thrown together and written by circumstance. Then I fleshed it out from there. It was super off the cuff

Which meant that a lot of stuff only connects together after the fact.

If I had anything to take away from this...

It's to definitely NOT release your first build. And maybe not even your second. But that can be so difficult to gauge. At the time, I thought I was cooking.

But after five years, I can only look at 2020 me like as a joke. You were happy with THAT?๐Ÿ˜‚

I found a copy of SER from 2020. That was back when the first build was finished. I gave it a playthrough, and man, 5 years of progress really does make a difference.

The core ideas were always there, but there was so much missing in hindsight. To think this could have been released...
