This week's mascots are pretty much inseparable, so I'm introducing them all at once.

Bio below. v


The Social Butterflies

Joined Game Jolt: 2012

Hobbies: Light gossip, communal flower gardening

Dislike: Synthetic fragrances

Bio: Tim, Tam, and Tom (from left to right), known as the Social Butterflies by all and sundry, grew up together in a small country village. They have always been close friends, minus a few childhood squabbles, and share a desire to contribute to the health and happiness of their community. In their free time, they enjoy good conversation, along with cultivating an organically grown communal flower garden. When there's news to be heard, one can always count on these three to know even the smallest details of a matter!

Author's notes:

It's probably pretty obvious that these three represent the various communication-centric features of GJ, such as comments, the forums, and so on. I like to think of their positivity and peaceful surroundings as being a sort of model of the ideal community vibe we could hope for here on Game Jolt.

Since the community is such a tremendous focus here, the butterflies have been used in lots of different ways on the site. At times, when I've received an assignment to create a new graphic, it's actually been hard not to think "Tim, Tam, and Tom would be perfect for that," because they're so easy to use in various scenarios.

The second image I included was made for an article about two years ago. It's a favorite of mine, because it really emphasizes the strong team spirit shared by these lovable characters.

One fave #CoOpMemory is when I made the sentinels angry on @RedChu 's home planet when he was just starting No Man's Sky, and we hid underground for safety, but they decided to shoot us through the ground anyway because of some random multiplayer glitch.

Also, thank youuu for 16k followers!

It's the start of a new week, and I hope it turns out to be a good one for all of you. Take care of yourselves!

I made the graphic for the Emergency Charge Refill, a new item in the GJ shop.

Purchasing gives a quest that immediately fills charges, and it also comes with animated stickers.

@thoro had the idea of a bottle inspired by Zelda!

@RaleDesign is a Jolter to Watch! They post great Minecraft builds and designs! Follow them before the quest ends on November 19 and you'll get Coins!

This video was giving me issues during editing, so this will have to do, I guess.

Missed the turnip toss, but lvl 9 Kazuya got the ol' golf club anyway. I also just noticed this stock was a 0%-death (but only because I play in the most annoying way).

Happy #WIPWednesday!

Pet portrait for a friend.

Their adopted cat (affectionately named Porch Kitty) disappeared for 5 days (he has never left the house), so I painted this to help them with their loss. Happily, the cat returned home, safe and sound.
