...let's be honest, I'm a character designer, not a master of hi-res pixel art.

This is supposed to be the backside of a large alien spaceship. It looks too much like a giant escape pod with thrusters. I'm keeping the large tentacles, though.

Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.

The next update may be full of bugs.

...moths, mostly.

I was considering releasing the expansion today, but then I found a lot of bugs I should've spotted in the original build, and I made the minimap do extra stuff for said expansion.

Don't worry, it'll be out by tomorrow night.

Line work first, then shading.

Also, if you're asking "where's her hair?", that's gonna animate separately.

I might have to put this in a little black box on-screen, but that's no problem for me.

Part of the expansion involves a cute little fight right here. ...in space for no apparent reason.

...too bad it won't be as epic as the final boss, but still...

Don't worry, I backed up the other one, but I'm going with this for the alien spacecraft. Part UFO, part retrofuturist rocket, and only three tentacles for the tripod look.

Whoooooa, we're halfway there!

...in terms of cutscenes.

I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.

I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.

"Sir, is the Super Scaler effect really necessary for a cutscene like this?"

"I coded it, didn't I?"
