One of the Moon caverns for the Scientific Survey mission to explore... it's dark, you'll get lost, and lots of death pits to fall into.

a painting of a room. I havent done a proper perspective drawing in a while. It's wild this took me less than half a day, I think in the past it would have taken me a week lol.

the confidence to just trust your eye that comes with practice is real.

Think about the literal billions of dollars of investment that could have been used to fund ACTUAL games rather than gambled on tech that may never be able to make a single worthwhile or consistent experience... I'm guessing we fry the planet long before this matures much past empty BOTW knockoffs.

Imagine someone knocking loud at the door in the cartoon world and the little guy say ยซย oh oh mister googoo wants to play hide and seek, do you see any place I can hide ?ย ยป and then it switches to first person leaving you on your own

Everything is a WIP, sound effects are placeholders. Working on an arena game mode for a demo, trying to get enemy behaviors right between evasive/aggressive, gonna be adding more nuance to them soon. More playable characters are coming along nicely too.
