Recently, I've seen some renewed interest in the mascots I've created for Game Jolt over the years. I thought it might be fun to take the time to introduce each of them to you all.

I'm submitting this to general since it is official GJ art.

Bio below. v


Just a quick note, I plan on introducing one mascot per week, so look forward to seeing the rest over time.

Now that that's out of the way, let's meet Game Jolt's very first mascot!

PandaC

Joined Game Jolt: 2009

Hobbies: Collecting shiny objects of value

Dislikes: Water, clutter

Bio: PandaC was originally created to seek out and mine powerful crystals known as joltite, which are necessary for today's technology. However, exposure to the joltite crystals produced unexpected results, giving him a mind of his own! PandaC retained his fixation on joltite crystals, but instead of unknowingly slaving for the industry, he collects the crystals, as well as other precious findings, for his own ever-increasing personal stash. However, PandaC has a big (mechanical) heart, and will freely share his wealth with beloved friends and those in need. PandaC is efficient, honest, and has a great mind for mathematical figures, making him the perfect helper to keep track of trophies, achievements, and scoreboards here at Game Jolt!

Process of one of my Pikachu drawings. This is a perfect example of when I start losing myself in art land, but suddenly snap back to basics when I realize "Oh right, I have no time!" You'll see what I mean.

My fave indie game? Cave Story will always hold a special place for me. #GJAsks

Here's a quick drawing of Itoh.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

Snagged a moment to play through the demo of Aim! Kirby's Spring Shot by @THE_INFINIVERSUM last weekend. Wanted to play it as soon as I saw it. Had fun!

This was version 2.0.1—new content has been added since.

uh oh! @ClydeSlicker and @GreedyGrackle stole a shiny orb to sell it on the black market. well, turns out, it's an evil wizard's favorite pondering orb. 😱

save Game Jolt from the evil wizard's curse!

This isn't really much to look at, but figured I'd post anyway, because why not. LOL I was just doing some mograph experiments with heavy distortion. Blender + Krita.

This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates Plants vs. Zombies! Accept the quest in your quest log to get started.

I finished my permadeath run in No Man's Sky and got the To Live Forever achievement! Apparently only 0.8% of NMS players on Steam have that achievement...

It'll be nice going back to all the conveniences of my main save file again.

Got 'em all, yay!

By the way, @StuntmAEn_Bob made a community specifically for 1-bit art. Would be awesome to see more activity there.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

This background was made in Blender with a little optimization and colour tweaking in Krita.

I really like making minimal designs that call back to 80s/90s "future" mographs you might see on PC monitors and other displays in movies/animations.
