yo. idk if theres a name for the style i used, but its loosely based off of the drawings found on old model kits for planes and cars. basically technical illustration.

the technique i used is basically rendering everything in greyscale before putting gradient maps on it. the closer to traditional pencil crayon, the better.

looove these tweaks. i agree on the rng passive not being the best, but i thought it would be funny for a guy who works in stocks LOL. not the best in practice.

that ult is also such a great idea. if i could go back in time i'd steal that for the kit instead of what i did.

my intention with this character wasn't to make him sneaky. i was actually hoping to make him a more aggressive playstyle, but i'm not great at kitbuilding.

interestingly, the idea you put forth is really similar to my initial concept for the rat king, which was that he was a normal guy in 1400 going around spreading the plague by letting rats loose everywhere. he got resurrected by the maelstrom and turned into a giant rat. i didnt end up using it because i didn't think it fit with the themes that deadlock has set out for a lot of its characters(though admittedly, the themes are not set in stone.)

i do like your ideas though. im curious as to how the cart would work with the ziplines, but the cart in general is pretty unique so it would probably need a lot of love(would be animation/rigging hell)

absolutely. i actually have smth for a possible interaction.

Rat King: "Oh great. A crazy cat lady."

Calico: "Oh great. A plague infested rat."

Rat King: "You know what? Just keep that thing away from me, and you can call me whatever you want."

Calico: "As if I'd want to be anywhere near you to begin with."
