SIRIUS GIBSON - Witch's Heart

PROPAGANDA:

fucking dies. all the time. the only outcomes where he lives are in his own conclusion (a sequel game) and the bad end. he lives by himself in a mansion and has been a shut-in since he was like 10 and he does magic to keep the demons at bay, except his sigils are really poorly drawn (as commented by one of those said demons). hates everyone except for like 3 people. also the most pathetic character in the game like how the fuck did he survive 12 years by himself. he witnessed horrible things happen to the ones he loves when he was a child and he just deserves to be happy and loved and he should get 10,000 hugs but only if he’s comfortable with that.

I hate this little gremlin but a month ago I decided to try my hand at the card art contest, this one for Bank of Poppo

[labrat20]

I drew this for a friend a couple months ago, someone obsessed with 02 haha, I used it as an excuse to practice skin shading and transparency effects

This one's a tad random but I had the intense craving to draw ramen a few months ago, my first time trying anime food art properly

[labrat20]

ITS KEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just a lil test to practice my rendering skills and stuff :D i'm pretty happy with it lol

[labrat20]

I also drew Miku a short while back while I was testing my backlighting and playing with alternate colours

[labrat20]

Now that I'm on Tumblr I can post my submission for that Ib contest that happened a little while back

[labrat20]

It looks atrocious but I did this quick Kel sketch a little while back

What are some good new RPG maker games?

I played some ages ago, but the websites have now all been nuked because they were full of ripped assets from SNES games.

ooh i can answer this

for ones with no real combat that've been around for a while, yume nikki is good, but i've mainly played .Flow, a fangame of it, which has a darker tone and atmosphere with more understandable "goals", so i attached to it much more

Ib (eye, bee, as letters) is an interesting art game that appeals to emo/scene aesthetics that i like more, it has no combat but many puzzles and an incredibly interesting setting, to me

OFF is a french-translated RPG which is kinda the best in the business, the art & music are top notch and the gameplay is accessible, if seeing pictures of it or hearing music from it intrigues you, i think everyone should give it a shot.

almost all of these are real battle sprites. you play as a baseball player (The Batter) and purify ghosts as you come into existence. the fandom came & went in 2012-2014 or so, but the game's worth experiencing, very much. more games under the cut below the image

LISA: The Painful is an excellent game that has a post-apocalyptic setting and a weird axis/style for an rpgmaker game (being a sidescroller), the setting involves you playing as a very traumatized man living in a world where all women have gone extinct and people are fighting over nothing before the world ends, the feeling of it is pretty immaculate and the soundtrack is great but strange, it cultivated my interests at a developmental period

most of the aes can be described through this trailer

LISA also has a sequel (The Joyful) which takes place after the first to tie up the story, but most importantly is that the very interesting setting & vibe set up a slew of fangames, the strongest to start out with which are

LISA: The Pointless, where you play as a very washed up martial artist who gets dug out of a trash pile by a new friend he made; a gunslinger with a bolt-action pistol that only has one bullet, and thus he can never shoot it: only threaten enemies & fake out the fact that he MIGHT shoot them, to debuff them - this game also tightens up the RPG aspects of LISA significantly, and has an IMMACULATE vibe & unique feel, it's one of the most important games to me ever

and LISA: The Hopeful, which retains more of the aesthetic of the original as well as the goofy charm while telling a very compelling grounded story.

i also contractually need to mention Fear & Hunger, it's incredibly unfair and by most metrics fails at game design but if you're interested in body horror, cosmic horror & can stomach depicted (but very much so not portrayed positively) sexual violence, it's very good art

and finally, Hylics is an incredibly artsy game that's obtuse and strange but very beautiful. it's entirely sculpted and animated with clay, but i think (as someone interested in other claymation projects, but weaned off of them after a while) the aesthetic is notably better for hylics, it doesn't feel "gross" with its humor or too, "self-referential" i'd call it maybe?

the sequel, Hylics 2, is instead fully *animated* claymation that was then ported to blender, frame by frame. there's no other project on earth that really looks like Hylics 2.

i would highly recommend playing both if you gel with them at all or think they look cool, they're both pretty cheap on steam and are accessible for an RPG (if you can figure out its silly namings and mechanic equivalents for things like health & levelling up).

none of the games mentioned here have level grinding or random encounters, either (besides some parts of OFF)! i hate that! i only like good ones, i promise!

that's all, hope this helps lol
