Finally done! I did end up overhauling the hair again, though, so now it's made with curves which I've put on a surface deform cloth.

Once more it's Sym from #IWasATeenageExocolonist #teenageexocolonist #exocolonist

Thread, 2025 as #exocolonist memory cards c/o my Fan Art Memory Card Creator and thanks to @simulo for the prompt. Each card to follow as a separate post.

I really love how "I was a teenage #Exocolonist " promotes #community engagement through its #gameDesign :

The main game mechanic is a simple card challenge, adding enough points to beat a threshold.

Where many players are naturally inclined to start developing characters attributes, spending time learning, exercising, etc - it's not what gets you cards.

Forming memories with your community members does.

I find that one of the most #solarpunk usages of emergent narrative in game mechanics :)

His gloves ate his sleeves and the coat refuses to behave, but he feels almost done, now only for the last 90 percent

My Sym 3D model is finally getting somewhere   .

Only have to finish the details and get the materials looking right. Also he needs eyebrows and eyelashes.

@jsw The #exocolonist game community has discussed what to call a non-binary uncle/aunt role, since it's a possibility in the game, and there are two non-binary supporting characters and you can choose that for the main player character.

I can't speak to preferred terms.

The game lets you fill in a word to be used in the conversation and story text if your player character is non-binary.

@operationpuppet I wonder how widespread charity benefit game stream events are?

One of my strokes of luck was to win a donation drawing prize from a benefit stream event at Finji, the game publisher, an extra press packet of promotional material from their game #Exocolonist . And suddenly I was making fan crafts.

The Warframe community seems exemplary in building a regular benefit stream into their community routine.

Avevo dimenticato quanto potessero essere malinconici i finali.
Intanto, mi è morta ancora madre e non ho ancora capito come mettere a posto gli scudi per le idroponiche! Che rabbia!
Poi ho fallito nel deporre Lum perché mannaggia a Seeq non avevo i soldi appositi.

E non ho nemmeno fatto la pace con i Gardener! Che rabbia! Almeno ho finito l'amicizia con Cal e giocato online con Nomi...

@alxd @lex Holy shit. Thanks for the recommendation.

I gave Teenage #Exocolonist a try and it's so damn beautiful! I end up crying over and over from seeing how wholesomely these kids are being brought up. Wondering what would have become of me if I had such a childhood.

Haven't played such a touching game in... possibly, ever.

You say it's not utopian... what about it is not utopian? :D
