Nick Shutter @nickshutter.bsky.social · Jul 26
📌 My name is Nick! I create many things:
▶ Furry, spooky, and NSFW illustrations (see #MyArt)
▶ Dark ambient, dungeon synth, harsh noise
▶ Visual novel
All of that and more, here: nickshutter.carrd.co

I'll use this post as an Important Stuff thread (art packs, album and game releases, etc.) 👁👁🡇
Illustrated reference sheet for the poster's fursona, a purple skull-headed bat monster. The text reads "Nick Shutter: Weird skull-headed bat monster. Representation of the self online. Wings are optional and can be fused with arms. Goopy blood that smells like a Halloween candy bucket. Play with proportions, bend bone to make expressions. Recognizable is better than accurate. Purple is default but no set palette or pattern. VR Chat model by Sadie Layton."

The insistence on making these robots bipedal is probably the most obvious giveaway that it's all a big carny gimmick

Wanted to play with some new screentone brushes, and I've also never drawn Asterion... the bovine face and horns have always been intimidating! I think it came out nice. Hopefully the textures don't get completely destroyed

Black and white illustration of Asterion, a minotaur from Minotaur Hotel, in sunglasses and a speedo with the Greek flag on it. Same illustration, but without the speedo.

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:

"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

I knew from the start that I wanted my ITG video to go up with subtitles, but I didn't really keep subtitles "in mind" during editing. I'll make sure that in future videos, important stuff won't be in the "subtitles space" (especially other text)

"Although young trans people were most frequently and viciously targeted by Trump, the report found that “transgender youth under 20 were quoted in just 6% of articles.

Who did msm corporate media turn to? Trump, a member of his administration, or other Republicans were quoted in 50% of articles"

Big thanks to Adrei for reaching out with the full version of Pick Me Up and Tango by Nina Goddess of Dance! Apparently, this got passed around on forums back in the day but might not have had official release. I've put it on the IA

We deserve a rhythm/puzzle game with DJ Sabrina and Oneohtrix Point Never on the soundtrack. It's what the people are clamoring for

Feel basically the same.Great fun learning Lumines for the first time and the stages that hit *really* hit. But almost half the songs feel like the interstitial music they play on Love Island or something. Heartbreakingly lame tracks.

So I guess the embargo is up on Lumines Arise. It's pretty neat—as someone who isn't used to Lumines' ruleset, it's unbelievably challenging.

A personal hurdle, however, was that moreso than Tetris Effect, I thought that so much of the soundtrack was absolute horseshit lol

Had fun listening to this while walking the doggo on this inexcusably cold morning. Love hearing about someone on a years-long mission, and this particular mission was/is to find specific lost videogame music.

Maybe you… yes, you… have what he’s looking for on an old hard drive somewhere

My first YouTube video is up! It's about the lost music featured on In the Groove, a Dance Dance Revolution clone from 2004.

That's where I'm at with Tetris, I like it casually! I played Tetris Effect in VR and it was really gorgeous, the same devs have a new Lumines game coming out soon that I'm hype for, too. The story mode in Tetris Effect can be a little tough but you don't have to be a master of the game to beat it
