Developing a Monster Taming RPG set in the Land of UR.
2D hand drawn #art style

Hi Bluesky! We are making a monster taming RPG set in a "happy apocalypse" sci-fi world. Here's a look at our battle screen. So yup no backsprites for your monsters but we're thinking about animating the avatars of your monsters when they attack or get hit. #gamedev

These three kinda have starter trio energy, right?
So here's a sketch.
Their types would be Deep Blue (water), Cyclone (wind) and Bolt (electric). The types are ordered alphabetically to make it easy to remember. Each type beats the two following.

And now for something a little lighter! Here's page 4-6 of my monster taming comic. Yup that's right, the monsters are called Ur (or Uru for plural) and they can be "bound" to simple pottery jars. More of an ancient vibe than Pokemon

I wanted to try and get that classic pokemon poster look where they skrunch all the pokémon together.
Meet my collection of Ur monsters so far! I also finally got my first attempt at a logo in colors. Tell me what you think!

Nu from Chrono Trigger. It only appears when it rains.
Definitely some Totoro energy in Toriyama's design. I could also see it appearing in Ponyo. Sketch by me. Original pixel art from the game for comparison.

Have a look if you're a fan of monster taming, creature collecting, Pokémon, Digimon or just JRPG's in general!
I'll be bundling these in 3 pages with a one panel eye-catcher.
It's pretty hard to get your comic actually read on bsky.

Roly Poly!! It's my favorite monster from Chrono Trigger. The whole mechanic where the imps could ride them, but you still had to target and kill them separately was so impressive to me. Square Enix didn't have to add that, but they did.

I always thought Chrono Trigger's enemies had very interesting expressions! Of course Toriyama sensei had something to do with that. :) Bless the man. These sketches are all based on in-game pixel art fyi.

I based this concept sketch on a pair of Jaguar sitting in a tree. I thought it was too cute how the little one was just casually hanging on to the branch.

I finished the side walk-cycles for these lil critters. You will find them struttin all over our gameworld. Once you get hitboxed the true monster gets revealed. They're simple shapes but it was still hard to animate. I'm no pro so they pretty floaty in places. Tips welcome!

Bibeak!! Bibeak is based on Anurognathus, but you guys already knew that, I'm sure.

Here's a collage of all the Ur monsters I've done colored art of so far. I wanted to see them together. :) Let's do a popularity poll! Who are the favorites? There's 4 rows of 4. So you can just drop a number. Names are in alt text if interested

Voltuar wants to play catch, but the Uyu monk is having his serene moment. The first Uyu temple you come across will be in the middle of the Urwood.

This is Penjin. I'm still not exactly sure what he is, but I love him!
Let him float into your hearts!

Aqualgo is a wetland dwelling Ur monster. It evolves from Loofal. The former is based on Allosaurus and Baryonix, the latter is based on Dilophosaurus. He's an older design so I don't have that many quality sketches to show of his conception.

As a kid, during the jurassic park craze I used to have a Dilophosaurus toy which could shoot water out of it's mouth. Then when the pokemon craze hit, it got repurposed as a water type pokemon together with a whole other bunch of toy animals we had.

This is still one of my favorite monster designs I did so far. Who doesn't like a knuckle-walking gorilla-horse right? Sasqwoosh is based on the extinct Chalicotherium. It can create eery mist in the dense forests it inhabits.

I finally sat down and drew some free form concept art again for my monster taming game and it felt good. Might have gone a little wild on the details for the gate. I fit five Ur monsters in there and plenty of other symbolism. 😅

Just a flying little Ur monster that's happy to be alive. It's soaring out of its cave temple to catch some prey. I call him Bibeak!

Page 12 of my Land of Ur, webcomic.
Last time Terrigul just snapped out of his paralyzing shiver. Guess he's not wasting any time after that scare!
That wraps up this fight. Taron & Terrigul advance to the next round!!
