Unless something interesting comes up in the future, this will likely be my final Digimon Up update. I've beaten the final stage, and to celebrate, I switched up the team. Now the endless grind of obtaining all the starter Megas begins. ✨️🎉

It was a brief spotlight, but my lovely Magnadramon maxed out at lv99, and now it's on to the next Digimon! I unlocked Relemon, which just digivolved into a Pokomon, and now I'm laughing at the thought of beating the game's Stage 600 final boss with a Renamon. 🙈🤭

If I could make some changes to the evolution lines of the starters in Digimon Up, that aren't as anime-centered, I'd try these. I wanted to do all the starter lines, but finding cohesive Digimon design pairings is tricky. 😅

I'm surprisingly close to the finish line of Digimon Up, which is apparently at Stage 600. I'm also just 2.5 levels away from seeing my Mega- which hopefully is Magnadramon! My newest favorite addition to the team is, surprisingly, Troopmon. He's just a silly squishy guy with gun-fingers. 🤭

I've currently hit my power limit for Digimon Up, now stuck here at Stage 176. I still got Zubaeagermon, and upgraded my Salamon to Gatomon and my Ludomon to TiaLudomon. I probably won't reach Angewomon for a long time though. 🙈

My current party for Digimon Up! Rather than picking the recommended Digimon, I only plan to pick mons I like. My favorite teammate I've unlocked so far is Zubamon. ✨️

No luck yet on making a quest menu for my dothack game, but on the bright side, I now have ducks. Eventing is so frustrating in GB Studio, but I'm slowly learning bits and pieces. At the very least, I managed to set up warps between maps, so all locations are connected. 🦆

The 4th and final part of my Dol Dona de-make is complete! A lakeside Guild building is so relaxing. Originally, its bridge would connect to the Steam Bike shop, but GB areas are so small that we don't need a bike. Now that the town is complete, time to research gameplay! ✨ #gbstudio #pixelart

Part 3 of my Dol Dona de-make is complete! While yes, it's just a corridor between the 2nd and 4th part, it's still important. The official layout makes a diagonal right-turn by its end, but with this fixed camera, I made a straight path instead. Now, onward to the finale! ✨ #gbstudio #pixelart

Part 2 of my Dol Dona de-make is complete! The main hub of this root town, if / when there was an inventory, you'd do most of your business here. There is a weapons shop, magic shop, guild shop, armor shop, and the quest-giver at the center of the plaza. Well, off to the next! ✨ #gbstudio #pixelart

Part 1 of the Dol Dona de-make for my DotHack fangame is complete! I don't yet have an inventory system set up, so the shop-tent is currently useless, but the save-tent is functional. I'll hold off on making the Chaos Gate useable until I finish the town. ✨ #gbstudio #pixelart

Yes yes, I know it's late at night, but I've taken big steps forward in my DotHack game jam entry! My de-make of Dol Dona has been going pretty well so far, though our new Twin Blade hero would rather go adventuring! ⚔️ I'm currently 1/8th finished this town, but making speedy progress. #gbstudio

As the new mysterious popular age verification quiz has revealed, I am in fact just a child in an adult's body. Elle is smol, confirmed. uwu poomang.com/en/t/brain_t...

Attempting to make a DotHack fangame has been more tedious than I had expected, but it's #screenshotsaturday, so here's some progress. I wished the option menu could offer "Male Cleric" or "Female Knight," but I'm stuck with the default gendered options.

To celebrate the newly released unnamed bird and snake Digimon, I made some custom evolution lines! Admittedly, the snake lines were hard because we don't have many complete pairs. Hopefully, later in the year as its evos are released, we'll have more options to work with. 🙏

I have discovered THE BEST Agumon variant. Apparently back in 2002, there was a Chinese-exclusive collab event to create this little pink Agumon with her cute choker, tiny top-hat, and a bowl of strawberries & cream?? Also, that dollop of cream on her nose is adorable. I LOVE HER SO MUCH!! 😍😭

Hah, bet you didn't see that coming!! I am now Zooble. www.idrlabs.com/amazing-digi...

I wanted to make screenshots for Rust Red, but that didn't work out, so instead, here is a new map! In the official games, it's known as "Route 28," but I'm treating it as an extension of Route 23 instead. You can reach it in the demo, I won't say how, but the Mt. Silver ruins are for post-game. ✨

✨ Post a game you remember playing that nobody else remembers. ✨ For as many people I know that gush over all things Studio Ghibli, I'm always shocked at how many people don't know this game. Studio Ghibli co-designed both the art style and its animation, likely their first videogame work ever.

Development of Rust Red is going okay, and I've just finished fixing up all the outdoor city maps for the demo. I still have to finish a handful of indoor maps though. Below we have the academic paradise of Pewter City, Brock's archeology gym, and the mechanical Cerulean City! ⚙️ #screenshotsaturday

"We don't usually see each other's headers; here's mine. Quote post with yours."

Maybe not the most exciting update for Rust Red, but I've been enjoying remapping all of the indoor areas and updating their colors to make everywhere look and feel new. I've also been replacing various building tiles to give more character to each town / city. 🌲✨ #screenshotsaturday

The weather is gorgeous, and for whatever reason, I felt inspired to draw Mokona Modoki. I love CLAMP works, and Mokona has always been the cutest mascot character. The face gave me trouble, but I got through it okay.

As I was altering the gym tilesets for Rust Red, I got to thinking, since I'm already working on a few indoor tiles anyway, why not do them all? I've updated all the outdoor maps, and the indoor maps should match their quality. I finished Pallet Town, so here is one small preview! ✨

Better late than never, but the combined Route 9 & 10 for Rust Red are complete! With how close we are to Lavender and Cerulean, a humid swamp with old abandoned buildings felt like a good transition. Rock Tunnel and the Power Plant, though not in the demo, have been changed to new area-types. ✨

Route 23 plus the Indigo Plateau entrance for Rust Red are now complete! I only have two ruins biomes planned for the game, and this location falls under the "overgrown ruins" subcategory. Beyond its purpose to connect to the Victory Ruins, it also has various ancient monuments to examine! 🧐

Look who found a piece of their childhood in a used-bookstore! They only had the 3rd volume of the DotHack manga, but its better than nothing. I also bought the 1st volume of Love Hina, which I hope to save up enough to collect as well. Wow, such a nostalgia-filled day! 🥰

It's not my usual #screenshotsaturday content for Rust Red, but I've just finished updating the biome for Route 3 & Mt. Moon Square, now as a brief snowy section of Kanto. Make sure to bring a warm coat, a hot drink, and some fluffy mittens, it's chilly up in the mountains! ❄️
