Officially back to having races every possible race in Mario Kart World. 242 is still such an insane count lmao True quantity game.

So Star Fox on the Switch 2 fucking rocks. I enjoyed the 3DS remaster back in the day, but this is gorgeous and the cutscenes add a surprising amount of interest to doing new runs. Hope this helps this series find success. I'd love to see it get more love.

My GOAT, @4dozeneggs.bsky.social , has officially completed the final team art for my Pokemon Legends: Z-A Nuzlocke!

Forced a rage quit in Champions today. The game has its flaws, but I will say, it do be jingling keys at me rn

This one originally started as an April Fools idea where I'd literally just make a stick figure as a monster. The idea to fake it being AI generated came afterwards. Homunculine actually wasn't even meant to be official canon, but it is now. Lol

I think I've left this to fester long enough. April Fools! This is the actual sprite. Homunculine is actually just the orb that appears as a "head." It produces thin appendages that it uses to approximate structures from other creatures. Lately, they prefer humanoid forms... #pixelart #fakemon

Sorry. Let me try again. 😔 🚀 Homunculine? Now that's a name! It really shows your creativity — with a fun twist 🧬! Everyone will love your original character. 🔥 #pixelart #fakemon #madewithAl

Columi had few dramatic changes from concept to execution, but I found the asymmetrical eyes to be a fun way to sell the amorphous nature of its features.

Columi? Another mass of organisms? Huh. Columi is made of water-manipulating monsters that produce a bright glow when disturbed or under strain. Its form is very prone to changing, though all Columi seem to prefer maintaining an intimidating horned appearance. #pixelart #fakemon

I enjoy the comparison on this one. Simple concept, simple execution, goofy guy.

How many? A Ghoughoul! Ghoughoul is made up of countless monster spirits that have banded together into one being. They're known to drift somewhat aimlessly, and their vacant stares can leave their intentions hard to read. #pixelart #fakemon

So, just as I'd hinted, Switchound has evolved into Magnemutt. Shoutout to @maruscircle.bsky.social for the design. This pup has gone maglev! Fun fact, the structures with the eyes can actually detach and track prey, allowing it to see in 3rd person while it tracks the scent. #pixelart #fakemon

Recently touched up some old sprites of mine, adding new colors to the mix. #pixelart #fakemon 2017 (left) to 2026 (right)

Does anyone on #TomodachiLife Bluesky know what the color model they're using for the custom colors is? It's seemingly not HSV, HSL, or HSI. Halp

Haven't posted art in a while because I've been pretty wrapped up in a project, but I'mma share a bit of work that I've been doing. This is a WIP of a forest area I've been working on for the Fakemon game inspired by the college I went to (started almost 9 years ago now lol). #pixelart

I'm genuinely shocked by how good Gen 10's looking. Leaves having realistic shadows and light passthrough and fires acting on a lightsource are two very minor visual enhancements that I've been wanting to see. #WiWa can't come soon enough (I'm fine with them letting it cook until next year).

❤️Happy Fredrick Douglass day!❤️ Because he was born enslaved, Fredrick Douglass never got to know his own birthday. Based on memories of his mother and anecdotes from his master, who was also his father, he estimated that he was born in February, so he chose to celebrate his birthday on 2/14.

Tiling paths hurts my brain, but it's satisfying. Getting back into the swing of map building is cool, though.

Currently seated to have my lungs ironed.

The comparison on this one's pretty fun.

There's cool, and then there's Rascool. Rascool are known to travel in gangs and cause mayhem, taking valuables from monsters and humans alike. Their primary mode of attack is mean mugging their victims. One direct look from Rascool is nearly as painful as a Cralo's kick. #pixelart #fakemon

I scream, you scream, Iceplode! Iceplode has a sweet but deadly layer of secretions on the outside of its body. The chemicals it produces are rather flammable, so they have a tendency to explode. Faster than they'd look, they've proven useful as self-aware petards. #pixelart #fakemon

Looks like this is the year new Joy-Cons happen on Switch 2 lol This is a good combo, but I will say, I wish the outer shells were different colors. Maybe we'll see ones like that in the future, but at least there's some new colors coming. I'm thinking Splatoon Raiders will get a set, too.

QRP with your purple art!! I apparently haven't done all that many purple friends recently. Lol

It's about time for my 2025 Art vs. Artist. I actually didn't make a ton of art in 2025 (though it does feel like I did). I'm doing a split among my most common works this year. #pixelart #fakemon #mymachine #art Red: Monster Tamer RTS Sprites White: My Machines Blue: College Fakemon Touch Ups

I'm a big fan of this sketch comparison. The sketches look like they're suffering. Lmao

Larvamp is hanging out. Larvamp has a constant flow of current through its body, forming flickering bolts of electricity at the tip of its tail when threatened. Their small antennae can also release electricity if needed, but they're too weak to produce much of a visible spark. #pixelart #fakemon

I like the game. I like the game a lot. I get why others may not, but this was another peak game from a peak series for me. backloggd.com/u/DurchBurch...
