You're the first one to say it lol! 🥇
Definitely some of my primary inspiration.

Absolutely right, the way I'm doing it is a seamless texture but I need to first record it on a blank background+cut it out with background color to alpha, then second let the player "move" through it, maybe clearing the fog with a smooth gradient around it. The way it drags with the player is bad!

Thanks Dustin! It's really encouraging to hear this from multiple people. I've made great strides with the art style recently.

I recently got that feedback from another artist who posts here that just focusing on minimal effects and good colors pallettes is the way to go. Wish I could do half the cool effects you have though, there's a time and a place in the game for all of that.

Snails were big at the time I guess, lol! Is this because they eat mushrooms?

That's the best compliment I've ever got thank you!! Might lean into that aesthetic 🤔

Thanks for the repost and beautiful work yourself!

Thanks very much! Your stuff is great too, really perfect little forest critters.
