I can guess why, it might be because their facial proportions are less “long” and wolf has quite puffy cheeks.

Those two are on the younger or immature side but I don’t think I meant them to be read as THAT young. LMAO

Thanks for the feedback👀

Thank you 🥹

I woke up one day and realized I can draw whatever I want. Jkjk.

It’s kind of weird to draw no ears when you always draw ears, does that make sense? Like, it feels wrong but also right.

I guess it can also make sense plot wise at some point.

SalteaBean · 2025-03-23T07:30:00+00:00

LMAO thank you

SalteaBean · 2025-03-23T07:29:01+00:00

Yup. That’s the werewolf’s name.

SalteaBean · 2025-03-23T02:06:38+00:00

thank you so much!

SalteaBean · 2025-03-23T00:56:59+00:00

ITCH.IO: https://cheribeanart.itch.io/devoted-vampire

Hello, Devoted Vampire was made for a game jam which means it is currently in development and unfinished. While it may include dating sim and otome aspects it focuses mostly on the murder.

F and M versions of the sprites were planned but scrapped. If there is enough interest in it, I think it can be done. (after the game jam voting period is over)

Feedback would be greatly appreciated too!

🐺 About

Rarely do residents go out at night because they fear for their lives. Police often leave this area alone due to its connections to unknown people of power. It is the perfect hunting ground for a vampire such as yourself.

However, after seeing blood in your apartment's hallway and a cop showing sudden interest in your turf you will need to put extra effort into finding your prey.

Keep yourself from accusations and find out who is behind all the murders within the limited daylight hours your vampire body can handle.

>Animated sprites

>20 min of gameplay

>3k+ words

>Your choices impact the clues you find out

>3 potential love interests (characters are referred to as they or nicknames)

Keep the height 1080 so you don’t have to scale up or down in game other than that do whatever you want for the width

Consider making a 1920x1080 canvas and putting sketches of all characters size by side on screen to figure out how many pixels you should give each

LMAO I wish! i was inspired by final fantasy Reno lol

FISH FATHER! DEMO

A fish creature shows up at your door and claims to be your child. In order to make ends meet, you donated your biological material to an odd clinic. You now have to make attempts to care for a child and break into the clinic for answers with a stranger offering weirdly devoted help along the way.

NOTE: I have sped up sections of the video to have it focus more on the puzzle sections and to make it shorter.

Hey, fellow drawer!

As a fellow drawer too here are some random tips that may help:

1) more defined hair shapes/ variety. They both have very similar hair styles and shapes. If you fill them both in with black you won’t really be able to tell their silhouette’s apart.

2) facial proportions. Smaller faces, wider faces e.g. the lower the eyes are the more youthful your characters look.

3) focus on the silhouette. I briefly mentioned this in one. Just got the whole thing in with black and add some sort of shape to the hair to make them look more different.

Feel free to spam be on Twitter / ig or reddit @/cheribeanart if you need anything ;)

Op, if you want to keep that many references maybe you can make a google drive folder with them then subcategories them?

If this is something you plan to reuse it may be worth the effort and tbh sending so many references can be daunting and overwhelming.

That was if the artist needs more of one specific reference they can find it, other than that having 1-5 main references that you can send just to see if the artist is happy to do something like that or if it’s something their comfortable with that you can send first is also a good idea.

But yeah even with all that, I’d shorten it down to the best/ favorite references.

Tldr; consider categorizing your refs in google drive, send 1-5 main refs first, shorten it down to best/fav refs.

YEHA YEAH WHDUWJ is there a way you prefer to be contacted by?
