How did you expect a backpack to talk?

Sometimes, you have to design a character for one scene only.

...and yes, she has to look kinda like April O'Neil, but not quite.

Someone might ask, "Why laser chainsaws?"

Others might ask, "Why are you just repurposing the old DemoBot sprites again?"

It just makes more sense for DemoBots to be using laser chainsaws in the Rainforest. They're built for any job with a helmet.

As part of the game's canon, there's been an ongoing war in the Amazon Rainforest. It's a war between the loggers and the environmentalists.

That being said, these trees have been "shaved off" for in-universe and future gameplay reasons.

All that work doing research on the Amazon Rainforest as a level, and THIS is what I come up with?

...well, I'll change the tiles later. I want the ground to be more foresty, and that means working on a tileset.

I've been working on some character portraits. Since I've got six out of eight levels, I might as well focus on story elements like this one.

Now I can't stop thinking about Tony Jay's voice in Time Bandits.

Concept art time!

Early on, Tiel had a backpack because in the fic she was originally created for, she was going on an adventure along with Rick. That's why I was kinda attached to her.

Strangely enough, of all the games I've made .exes of, this is the one that STILL works on my current computer. And sometimes, I realize I made some poor decisions in game design with this one.

I'm prepping up a build to show to people.

There are a lot of rudimentary Visual Novel-styled cutscenes throughout. This one's for the end, because the game's not finished yet.

Well, I was looking through some old files, and found some cool stuff.
