Some art for a secret thingy:
Youâre weirdly talented and I mean it in the most positive way. All these compositions are very well balanced and careless at the same time. It takes talent to do that.
I think it looks fantastic! My brain seems to have receptor sites into which pixel art fits quite snugly, I am weak to its damage type. Definitely a contributing factor in my continual return to FTL, Dungeon of the Endless, and Risk of Rain. I enjoyed Hyper Light Drifter as well, it had the most stunning visuals but the gameplay was not as much my style as the aforementioned few.
I donât have the skill for scenes, but Iâll sometimes do a âportraitâ
Somewhat related, I recently created my first font (majuscules scaled down to fit the line):
Thanks so much for the kind comment! Iâm very insecure about my art so Iâm always kinda fishing for compliments and approval
I LOVE HLD in all its aspects, but I can totally understand where youâre coming from. Iâm still to play more FLT! And I struggle so much with the controls in Dungeon of the Endless I canât enjoy it⌠my fault.
Really cool sprite you got there! Whatâs the red box for? 10/10 staff and moustache combo.
As for your font, it looks super stylish and Gothic! What do you plan on using it for? Is it available online?
@coralinecastell, it looks lovely indeed!
Really, everyoneâs works look great too, I have no artistic feel/touch at all, so itâs tough as nails trying to do any kind of art. (Or as I had just had a major typo, âo fart.â â Yup, thatâs as much art as I can finely create.
Long time ago iâve used to be a 'photographer â So hereâs my deviantart page if someone interested. Though i havent touched a camera in many years now
Go touch a camera again, many of those pictures are great.
Iâm stunned by Landscape by NewlyBorn on DeviantArt and how well you captured the sky, found a very nice vantage point to take the picture from.
Though heads up, youâve chosen to put your real name(?) onto that page. Just in case you had forgotten and that wasnât something you wanted to share here.
And your birthday appears to be the 6th of FebruaryâŚ
Yes⌠well i hope i wont get assassinated
I wouldnât worry about that too much; the same could be said for any artist who shares their work, to varying degrees of self-awareness. Otherwise they would just keep it to themselves.
FTL and DotE both have tactical pause, so even though there are keyboard shortcuts I just end up using the mouse. Both become much much harder if you forget to use tactical pause, though! The other thing that keeps sucking me into these games is that theyâre relatively short. Thereâs something appealing about knowing you can have a complete playthrough in 1-2 days.
Reference image next to the pixel art: ta-da, itâs a philosopherâs stone! Fun fact: I found that chunk of glass in a toxic waste dump behind an abandoned glass factory (most dopants used to color glasses are quite poisonous). But do not get me started on wizards, Iâve written treatises on magic systems every bit as detailed and dry as an introduction to chemistry.
Thanks, Iâm glad you like the font! I would describe it as a descendant of Textura Quadrata, with some personal touches. Using it for various wizardly projects. If you want to use it, you can download the font from my fontstruct page. Just be sure to activate kerning in your text processor of choice or it wonât look right.

Resurrecting this topicâŚBECAUSE
Some doods I did while queuing at places:
Then thereâs these guys that I meant for a bigger piece for a contest somewhere, but I donât have that much time for it right now.
omg, was that for the Slay the Spire thing? I kept waiting for u dude.
u wouldâve won just for making me look so good, lol (assuming that is me)
i love it, btw
My website for when I want to be the artist that I canât be.
I wish you had all the time in the worldâŚSuch awesome drawings
Most definitely you, there was supposed to have big battle on the background with other Chronnies involved, but alas, I have a job.
Hurrah for night shifts!!! D:
Suppor me on my non-existing Patreon so I can quit my daily job like the pros.
Can u list me a few games yr currently interested in besides Slay the Spire? I briefly looked at yr wishlist but itâs ginormous.
I donât have any on mind really, Iâve been too focused on saving for a new PC to be able to play the ones I already have to be honest, why do you ask?
By the way, donât pay too much attention to my wish list, I often put things there to âcheck out laterâ because something they do or have catches my attention, but I always forget to check them out later P:
PD. please, donât wait for my entry, if you want to wait because you want go on, but otherwise it would be unfair for the others me thinks.
