Re: Bright Oak [time travel] [science fiction] [slice of life and death] [friendship] [romance]

For the final spooky short, I returned to Victoriana shenanigans for the classic best befitting Dr. Jasper Lee: Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. JasperThumbnail.png All my gratitude to Remnantation for her lending her extraordinary art to this little self-assigned project, as well as her editing prowes...

Re: Bright Oak [time travel] [science fiction] [slice of life and death] [friendship] [romance]

Patti’s ghost story is a little different, as I used an urban legend scenario for the base, rather than a specific written work. So for fun, I framed this short as the episode transcript of a misfit ghost-hunting podcast. As ever, editing and art credit to the wonderful Remnantation! Notes: some mi...

Updated our second character with her full color sprite: Meet Dr. Marybeth Forster, Bright Oak’s resident physician, and our sheriff’s long-suffering sister! It is my absolute pleasure to show off Remnantation's’s beautiful coloring work-- oh, and yes, that’s a sabre she’s holding. ⚔️

Re: Bright Oak [time travel] [science fiction] [slice of life and death] [friendship] [romance]

Spooky short #3 is Sparrow! There really was no option for Sparrow’s story but to dive into the Victorian literature he adores, with a heavy dose of the Gothic for good measure: Dracula, alongside works by the Brontë sisters, served as my inspiration for this one. Thanks as ever to Remnantation for...

Re: Bright Oak [time travel] [science fiction] [slice of life and death] [friendship] [romance]

Re-introducing Sheriff John Forster, now in brilliant color! The ever-talented Remnantation has finished with coloring the resting posture of our gregarious would-be cowboy, and I’m delighted to be able to share this glimpse of her excellent work!

Re: [CLOSED|PAID] IAmAn Editor at YOUR service!

Wudgeous is an absolute gem to work with, in every regard! They have undeniable talent-- a gift for creating memorable characters that feel truly lived in , with rich inner lives, and their dialogue shines with sparkling wit and gravitas, both!-- but more than talent alone, they back it up with a re...

Changing borders for thumb buttons in gui

( I'm fairly new, so apologies if this is silly and I've just missed a page somewhere, but I've looked around and I'm still a bit stuck) I'm swapping out the plain rectangles used for the sliders and scrollbars with more irregular shapes; I've been happy with how the bars themselves have swapped out...
