Wizard seal miniature based on @dranag0n.bsky.social's OC. When they were discussing D&D on stream, I had the idea to make their character.

Trying to get out of my creativity pit, I created Okiri Village from the Obojima D&D book with a visual style based on the Legend of Zelda Windwaker. #obojima #zelda #3Dart #environment

Had to put my dog down. She couldn't walk anymore and she was in so much pain that she couldn't wag her tail. It's been a horrible year. Please be patient until I can feel motivated to continue again. Sorry.
Sorry for the lack of updates to BKGRR recently.
Remodeling my basement, my childhood dog‘s showing signs of twilighting and my grandma having a stroke in the course of the last few weeks has been rough on my motivation.

I'm remixing release and prototype dialogue to flesh out the game's lack thereof. #BanjoKazooie. What's your thoughts?

My grandma had passed away today. If not for her owning a Nintendo 64 with Banjo-Tooie, I don't think I'd be who I am today.
Thanks for everyone who supported me and for their condolences. When I'm emotionally ready again I'll continue my projects.

Doing translates for BKGRR and finding the actual names in other languages is fun. For instance: Rat-a-tat Rap is:
FR: ATTAQUE EN PIQUÉ
DE: SCHNABELSPRUNG
ES: GOLPE RATATATÁ
IT: L'ATTTACCO A MITRAGLIA
JP: キツツキアタック

Jiggywiggy's Temple concept art for BKGR Reimagined. #BanjoKazooie.
Warp Cauldrons were once planned, as there is unused dialogue in the prototype about them. I think having a Warp Silo situation would be nice once you complete the level.

Collapsing Tunnel concept art for BKGR Reimagined. #BanjoKazooie
I think this is the only direct reference to Banjo-Tooie original to BKGRR. Using the sing-a-long pad outside the tunnel, Banjo must navigate through it within the time frame or be kicked out.
My attempt to add a time-travel gimmick.

Redrew Mr. Pants while looking at references this time. I wasn't happy with the initial attempt so I went back to it.

Does this sound like Banjo-Kazooie dialogue for a boss? BKGR: Reimagined will cover cut content. The mad cow only has a single line referencing her from the Jinjo Oracle via scrapped dialogue. #BanjoKazooie

I'm re-adding scrapped dialogue for BKGR:Reimagined and translating it with DeepL, if it already has an existing piece of dialogue, I'll tack it onto the preexisting translation.
Anyone who speaks any of these languages, does the translated dialogue read OK? #BanjoKazooie

I have a spreadsheet of every string in Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge separated by language and whether its a prototype or not. There are 815 unique lines of dialogue. About a quarter of it wasn't used. #BanjoKazooie

I reached out to Grybo who was doing the compositions for Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge Redone mod to see if I can use his tracks. If I get the go ahead, I'd love to repurpose his "redundant" tracks to other areas. I have a Cliff Farm interior theme, but his is so different. Adds some extra spice.
With permission from !!!!!, as well as additional tracks they gave that were not made public, so far BKGR Reimagined has 57 tracks to its OST. #BanjoKazooie

I was thinking the final quiz dubbed WINKYBUNION TOWER for BKGRR would take the Jeopardy approach. Three rounds. The collectibles would be as if the quiz show was its own level. Gives it a unique flair from ToT and FoF. #BanjoKazooie

Did you know that almost all Jinjo Oracles' dialogue has been re-written from prototype to final? I repurposed some as signposts and used some here.

Bug testing the new Jinjo Oracle secrets menu. Clearly needs some rework as it's not doing everything it should. But proof of concept for the most part. You'll see I changed the language midway through. #BanjoKazooie

Eventually I'll need to make a spreadsheet and get lines of dialogue translated. I could take a majority of it from the files. But it's extremely unorganized. Not a priority at the moment but it's good to have the early implementation for later. #BanjoKazooie

Concept map of what I want the Cottage Cliff Farm world to be mapped out as. My focus was on more of keeping the gameplay beats of it intact but shaping it more like a Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie world. This does a spiral to the Point of Interest like Mayahem Temple. #BanjoKazooie
