What a week! #20 on Greenlight, 2/3 funded and NEW ART! And coming up this weekend, an updated demo with a couple new ideas we are trying out.

Top of the list for making a full little bug is really digging in to who our characters are. Nyah is an inquisitive explorer. Someone who is perfectly content being in the woods discovering new worlds with childlike curiosity - but the loss of her mom coupled with huge lurking monsters shakes her. She’s at home in nature, but the world around her is becoming increasingly supernatural.

In the full game, you’ll be able to unlock new cosmetics for Nyah. We want to make her hair one of those unlockables, so Cherylynn drafted some pretty cute options. It was hard to choose the default look, but we decided on the top left because it shows more of her face and will provide some nice movement when physics are added in game.

The rolled up overalls on the right is the winner here, though the neck bandanna and hair on the left was hard to let go - but then, unlockables, so it all works out! The one issue is that she looks more like she’s 12 than 8, but Cherylynn (our wonderful new artist) fixed that up with slightly bigger eyes and head in the next drawing.

And here she is, in her final form with her Little jar, about to be thrown into a surreal adventure. She may have options for wing types too - dragonfly, bee, ladybug, firefly, etc. What would you like to see Nyah sporting on her full game journey?
