It's a little last minute. But here's my final for the #TrueRefDT002 reference challenge, and some additional sketches for how I used the ref in the process. Thanks for the cool pose!

Key Relics are a special kind of artifacts that you can find in #MindOverMagic when exploring the Nexus. Offer them to the Nexus Relic Statue to keep exploring the dungeons!

The deeper you go the more dangerous and weirder it gets in #MindOverMagic. The nexus is not for the faint of heart. Thank you to my incredible teammates at Sparkypants for making these as awesome as they are formidable in game. #conceptart #creaturedesign #gameart #stylized #indie #klei #monsters

Another daily study. Gotta do something to balance out what feels like speed running the end of the world.

Why train mages? To fight the monsters lurking in the basement of course! Hope your students took that group project seriously. They'll need all the help they can get.

A Magic School's gotta have students! In classic prep school fashion they adhear to a uniform dress code, but also have to stand out amongst their peers. We also needed to signify different levels of student education.

We've got a new Mind Over Magic shirt on the Klei shop! Let everyone know you've survived the deadly Underschool Dungeons and graduated with honors.

Available in full colour and a heavy metal band tour inspired "Underschool" monochrome variant.

In Mind Over Magic you can capture and tame wild rats and croas and feed them your excess of crops to keep them happy! 😄

I worked on the croa and rat coop. The beautiful babies were modeled and textured by @andyfps.bsky.social and the concepts are by @andrewcollins27.bsky.social

A wonky magic school needs a staff to match. In #MindOverMagic Humans, cultists, wolfkin, sentient stitched together fleshbeings and magical crystal people all working together in harmony! So fun to design, and they're even cooler in game.

One of the main things you do in Mind Over Magic is build your school. I prototyped the look and built out all of the FX and shader for our construction fx. Higher res videos below!

Operating costs of a magic school can be tough, thats why you take the viscera and sinew of various critters and stitch them together to create abominations to help with chores! Who knew dark magic could be kind of cute?
