A lonely #Scarecrow stared into the light, surrounded by the winds of death.

Been playing a lot of Nier Automata recently, so I wanted to do something similar to the ruined city. The vibes are definitely pretty different but that was my primary inspo <3


Second image is what I made in Blender to get the perspective right.

Did something similar for the last art of the boat I did.

Simple shapes and models put together and posed help a TON with getting things to look right.

Originally there was going to be a clown alone in the city, but I didn't manage to finish it last night, so Scarecrow it is!

I think that a lone scarecrow is a lot more evocative anyways. Like, a clown in a ruined city is a little less strange than a scarecrow.

A clown is still a living person, a scarecrow, at least usually, is not.

So it makes you wonder what the hell is going on here much more! I'm curious... what do you think the story is behind this scene?

If you read this far, lemme know in the comments below ^.^

Consider it a little creative exercise challenge thingy.

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Family band complete!

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist
