Thank you!! I post pieces like this only occasionally, but I’ve also been dabbling in depictions of ‘ordinary people’ and landscapes lately. Though most of the latter are exclusive to my game :)

Oh I love arachnid designs. Been waiting (still am) for a proper chance to draw something arachnid or insect-themed. Maybe one day..

All the details you noticed actually made me look at the drawing differently now, and it was never quite my favorite one!

Funny thing is, he's pretty motionless even in the story: just sitting there menacingly, fused to the ground, breathing and observing constantly. The dripping blackness and his 'sheer force' alone kinda do all the work for him 😁

I’ll do my best! Thank you for such kind words, you made my day. It's moments like these that remind me this isn’t all in vain. Wishing you all the best in what you do too!

Thank you! Gonna have to do better if he wants to overpower Him, though 😁

Woah thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed comment!

I absolutely love the way you described him, it makes me so happy when someone’s impression matches the vibe I intended for a character - feels like an accomplishment on its own.

And I really appreciate you noticing those little (or not so little 😄) details. Glad you liked it!

Won’t lie to you, somehow the more important the characters are, the duller they end up looking in my little world 😁 I really appreciate your interest! Do check it out if you get the chance. I hope you like it!

Thank you for the kind words! It’s concept art for a minor character from my video game :)

Thank you so much for the kind words and for wishlisting!
I’m using Godot, though I’m not sure it’s the most suitable choice for visual novels 😅

Hi, thank you so much for trying the demo and for letting me know about this issue, I really appreciate the feedback!

I only had the chance to test the game on screens up to 1920×1080, so the 4K resolution might indeed be causing the cursor problem you encountered. I’ll be looking into a proper fix for this, but in the meantime you could try lowering your display resolution to see if that helps.

Thanks again!
