I need more socially obscure yet still widely popular hobbies and interests to represent in my game.
If you have any interests that a good part of the general population looks at as strange, please let me know about it here.

I think the biggest problem with in terms of how badly Women are portrayed is lots of modern media is built on the backbone of non-modern media, so now we have so many tropes that are unintentionally borderline objectifying because that's what the tropes developed from. [1/2]

I can no longer look at UI as an ignorant anymore. I am cursed to always look at it with a sense of fear as if I am designing it myself. I looked at a pokemon storage interface and immediately started trying to reverse engineer how it worked with dread.
I am ruined.

Still polishing, debugging and learning the fundamentals, but dialogue is looking much better than the proof of concept already. (ignore this weird idle animation, it just doesn't translate well to pixel art haha)
Once again, the biggest credit to @nathanhoad.net for the dialogue manager addon.

I make everything I do in my classes very unserious so that my professors know I'm not using AI. I've completely shed my crystal clear mask of professionalism.
It is very fun what I'm allowed to get away with now that relief is the prime emotion rather than disappointment.

I do not know how to save and load progression or NPC data, in efficient ways, and I fear for my near future self trying to figure that out now that Robot Storage is 90% finished.
Thoughts and prayers to you, me.

I don't like these kind of battle game storage systems where its just a guy in a box that you drag around, so I'm fixing it. With something more physical like this, it feels more like you're checking out a storage locker preparing for war.

I cant exactly have imposter syndrome anymore when I realize just how much time Ive spent in a single art program I got THIS YEAR.
306.9 hours. Sure most of that is being on in the background, but that's still 306.9 hours I've spent developing things.
Is this what actual pride feels like?

My crafting system didn't feel special enough in the proof of concept, so now I'm going for something like this. When crafting either a module, key item, resource or robot, a special animation will play.
I'm excited for the robot animation, that ones going to be interactive :)

I get so sad when I notice that someone I barely talked to, and haven't talked to in years changed their bio to be sad or something.
Like I wanna come support and help you, but that would probably be really weird.

Humans, looking up into the vast emptiness of space, a frigid cold that is the antithesis of life, the very embodiment of nothing and the inspiration behind emptiness itself. Separated by light years from anything of actual value.

Humans are space Druids

Chief Redmond, the antagonist of Act 4 and the final character Im willing to showcase at this time.
A sadistic monster, one of the most threatening capable things youll meet. They never slow down. They are the best of the best, and they're after you.
Where will his battle with Black take everyone?

Blindside and Gear, two resistance members in the 4th act of the story, rescuing Black and his friends after escaping the Island. Not much about Blindside is known.
Gear is loud, bombastic, and speaks gibberish she made up while self-learning machinery.

Walleye and Darkskull. Walleye is the young cook for the pirates with a strong morale compass, wanting an out but never being provided the tools to make one. Darkskull is the captain, a psychotic who loves to fight and kill in demented ways.

Decay, a secondary "antagonist" in the first act. Leader of the raiders. He may not actively threaten or attack you, but he won't exactly stop others from doing so. A narcissist who needs everyone to idolize him, and just generally is a huge scumbag.
