A polished already long developed indie project, Seyken, has found it's way to IndieGoGo. The team shows some really solid progress and hard work behind the game. But please, instead of long explanations, take a look yourself. The artists Cyangmou and Vierbit have created beautifully immersive world with the Seyken team:

Even, if you cannot donate, spreading word is important and helps them already. Thank you.

Above and Under the Surface

Been running here and there getting schedules and courses arranged for this autumn. It has been surprisingly refreshing to go back to lectures. Especially since I have felt so tired for a while.

Well tiredness decided to give some way to art for ReStaff also. :> Collaborating is fun and kicks out some brain jams. Nessy's always a pleasure to work with and this time we had some pirates based on Thalzon's design. Go ahead and grab the fancy stuff over here.

The download over there includes also work from

 Fomar, Jalen, PentagonBuddy, Shiro, Timmah

(and ofc more from me Nessy and Thalzon) as well!

But that is not all! There is a small secret I have held until now. To take a glance we have to dive a bit deeper...

 Stay tuned here. ;)

Not quite lazy after all

While The Siren -project has been a bit silent for some time. I have not been quite lazy during the summer. Rather the opposite! So what have I been up to and doing? The question can be answered with one word.
 Art... (I am more happy, if I pretend I did not work during the summer.)

 I admit the laziness in putting this image together though!

It has been fun and it has been hard work, yet most of the art I have been doing is not yet finished or need more for the series. In the meshwork image above, there are some parts for personal work, some for RPGMakerweb's forum Resource Staff releases, including two collaborative pieces between me and Archeia_Nessiah, and some doodle designs and requested content.

Latest piece I made is the new looks for the blog. I hope it pleases the eye!

The summer has been busy - and hot!  <3

Lead me down to the sea

I thought it was now good time to bring this out! A little project that I have been working more or less silently.

To begin with you guys, I wanted to share the journey so far and the little changes the story or the atmosphere has seen. After the darkness of the winter comes the spring and the sun - and something like this happened also with The Siren...

Lead me down to the sea...

Originally, I had a vision of a dark and tragic love story inspired by this song.

While the core of the story still remains the same, the shades of it have become brighter. In the process of creating the character for the captain things got a bit out of hand; he simply didn't bend into the shape designed for him and instead bent the story to fit him. The agonized lady killer became a man child with heart of gold and his desperate and sad wife became a strong and level headed lady. The tragic undertones turned into comedy.

I have had plenty, plenty and plenty of fun with the reshaped project so far and my goal is to bring some of that enjoyment for the player, as well.

I hope we'll meet again soon everyone!
