Second time drawing a human, first time doing pixelart. Still, am kinda satisfied with the result.

'Tis one of the main characters in my huge setting for a bunch of teeny tiny indie games (am a beginner solo gamedev). In some he will be a playable character but mostly NPC. His name's Duncan, 'twas a placeholder name butttt cant call him anyhow else now so his fate was decided lol. He's a zombie knight (aye, the whole setting is about necromancers fighting the system created by rich bitches so all playable characters will be undead). Sooo on that teeny tiny pixel thingy I tried to make visible his dead skin - pale n with spots, plus adding blood stains on his clothes seemed a valid design choice to me.

The last pic is how iPhone sees pixel art, attached for the lulz.The OG image;s size is 32x32.
All drawn in Krita ofc.

edited to add:
the second pic is cut out from a screenshot, 'tis upscaled to 1700% or so.

Games from Ireland 2026

Celebrate St Patrick’s Day with games made in Ireland and by Irish teams around the world

My initial attempt at localising Turscar Isle into Irish...because "turscar" itself is the Irish word for spam.

Any "mistakes" within are *ackshually* the spammers' archaic dialect!!1! 😜

DEVLOG 6: Диалоговая система встречает счётчик стиля из Devil May Cry

Всем привет. Сегодня будем обсуждать механику счётчика стиля из Devil May Cry, но в диалоговой системе! Играя в DMC, я заметил, что момент, когда вы открываете счётчик комбо - а мне нравится это делать подкидыванием демонов в воздух - похож на то же ощущение, которое я испытываю при открытии сноски в диалоге. Это даёт ощущение перехода на более сегментированный аспект системы - сперва приёмы в воздухе, потом на земле и снова в воздухе. Или как у меня - диалог, сноска, диалог, сноска, сноска, диалог. Так что я решил попробовать добавить эту систему в свою демку.

Updated the demo and started an *open* playtest for Turscar Isle. If you like stealth games and hate spammers (and be honest, *everyone* hates them), then give it a try and let me know what a pile of rotten seaweed it is!

Turscar Isle on Steam

Infiltrate the base of a cult of spammers! Stick to the shadows, dodge the spambot cultists, and rob them of everything they haven't nailed down!

at least will bring some WIPs pf the project here while cant react to anything (damn i have so much to write here n create in general......)

all unfinished bc i guess 'tis better to do everything in pixel art, without bigger concepts buttt might still finish these just bc i kinda like them meself.

these are all from my setting which will be used for multiple games of different genres. zombie knight (not fully coloured) and necromacer (just rough sketch) are NPCs and my characters so will be playable only in very linear games as i just wont allow to change their traits n personalities n paths in RPG style lol; the griffin is from lore and kinda plays a role in the whole thing - here i just tried the blocks of colours to see how they work together n am not really satisfied - will certainly be adding lighter elements to armour n i forgor that it needed red in here too, tho i most certainly love colour combos on the feathers n paws.

cringe fun fact: i will never create platformer games bc i just plain suck at them. never was able to finish any platformer fr, even those old ones on phones were too much of a challenge somehow. so i just look at all the pretty platformers n kinda envy those who can enjoy them lol. cant create a one bc just wont be able to even test it normally.

Today's edition of dumb bugs that might become a feature: if an entire sector goes on alert, all NPCs respond to it. Even the dead ones.

I guess the cult of spammers that make this game's antagonists are *that* devoted to vomiting crap into inboxes 🤔 And turning people into cyborgs that vomit crap into inboxes...
