Concept for the ship layout. I had to look up navy carrier maps for a sense of how something of this scale exists, but there's still plenty of artistic liberties being had.

Most of this will never be touched on during the game, but to create a convincing setting I want to think it all through.

First coloring attempt: I do not know how lighting works in space, and I can't help but feel this looks more like a chunky flip phone than a spacecraft.

Still, we are going places. We are learning.

My initial sketches are fairly direct 1-to-1 copies, with a few minor adaptations (windows, mostly). I might try to be more creative with future drafts.

But first I want to try adding color and details to see how ship-like I can make them look.

Like all the sci-fi tech in Terminal Status, the design is inspired by medical devices.

Specifically, I'll be referencing an oximeter—a cute little gadget made to measure blood oxygen levels.

I have come up with maybe the funniest way to start an RPGMaker game

decided to do #the_color_wheel with Terminal Status's limited palette!
get pastel'd 😎

At least my draft for the main game's logo is cute.

It accomplishes all my goals: it shows off the pastel color scheme, it has medical aesthetic built in, it's legible. Most importantly, I think it's cute. The final version will definitely need some polishing, but for now it works.

Like. This ain't it. This ain't even remotely it.
