hi hi 🦈🩸 i'm polly (she/hers). i'm a digital artist specializing in horror and gore.

you can find my work in visual novels and various zine publications.

my personal work will almost always explore the reclamation and transformation of medical and body trauma, if it's not otherwise self indulgent
it's my greatest pleasure and honor to share that Onigashima is coming to Steam! wishlist it + check out our trailer, too!
We're excited to announce that we're publishing
@azurextwilight.itch.io's newest horror visual novel "Onigashima" on Steam!

If you're a fan of visceral meaty horror and stories set in medieval Japan, check out Onigashima here: store.steampowered.com/app/4101510/...

Some screenshots from Nova Forever. Featuring a racing themed bar, a dubious elevator shaft, the tinker room of our hero Cargo, and the so-called travel bay with lots of lush synthetic flora! 🌴

My little adventure game just landed on Steam right here:

chococat WILL win next year. mark my words
glad that the election is over so now we can focus on prepping for the real politics of next year: the sanrio character rankings.

The cinnamarollists will not retake the top, the Pompompurin coalition government will not hold long enough to retain the white devil - soon chococatmunnists will rise

Making a game trailer is a unique skill that even seasoned video editors can have trouble with due to the very specific needs of their audience.
