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.

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 got the brain in a jar, and finished making the level.

Now, what's that brain gonna do? I figure it'll electrify itself if you get into its personal space, and send out two robot minions after you, but still, what else?

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.

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

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.

How did you expect a backpack to talk?

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.

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.

The Saw-Pod is a machine for lumber work. It uses a bigger laser chainsaw, can cover the user's face, and has a built-in jetpack for those hard-to-reach places.

You'll have to beat them up in-game, though.
