Howdy!! I'm Actually Planning GREY MATTER: CNIDARIA!! Well, I Already Know The Story, But This Planning

Howdy!! I'm actually planning GREY MATTER: CNIDARIA!! Well, I already know the story, but this planning is for me to map how the story will work as an RPGmaker game. I'm not going to give a schedule out publicly… mostly because I don't know how long each phase will take.

Cheers to this project! I'm a full time student and first-time RPGmaker dev, so here we go!

(More info below the cut)

GREY MATTER: CNIDARIA is a mystery and psychological horror visual novel with investigation and puzzle elements. The story follows Sojiro Tsutsumi (right on the promo above), a detective recovering from a traumatic incident. Case by case, the bustling city he lives in--Asobi--falls apart into something surreal and strange. Will Sojiro discover why Asobi is unraveling around him, or will he die trying?

GREY MATTER: CNIDARIA is unofficially rated as MATURE 17+. The game will contain gore, implied sexual content, violence, body horror, and themes of abuse, paranoia, and psychosis. Engage with CNIDARIA at your own risk and comfort.

thank you all for the kind tags!! ^_^

Six unassuming young adults.

These characters are the main protagonists of GREY MATTER: CNIDARIA, a mystery / horror story I've been working on for a bit. I really like the colors here!! They're kinda muted, but overall pretty cohesive, I think.

Butch Fairy Zine: interest check!

This is an interest check! For a Butch fairy themed art zine to be held in 2024. Find the link here

This will be an art book that celebrates butch folk, and fairies, but through the lense of a field guide, with sketches and concepts alongside full colour illustrations. This project is currently being planned by 5 people, and a frog 🐸

This is not an Artist App form, but if you want to apply as an artist, you can still fill this in. We will make An Artist form later in January.

An older incomplete piece, kind of an attempt for a back cover of a book. I may revisit it in the future… I do like the colors and the intricacies here.

but i still feel your heartbeat like you could be right down the street

a melancholy thing for a song about longing. give it a listen!

7 days until CNIDARIA releases!!

For this week, I have some fun promo art and small character introductions. Some of these characters won't be featured until later, so keep them in your pocket!

Yasu (left) and Mitsuki (right) are Sojiro’s parents. Yasu works at home, writing obituaries and newspaper articles. He loves making coffee and picking up small artsy hobbies. Yasu is sweet and loves his wife, but he tends to be a people pleaser, rarely speaking his mind. Mitsuki is a forensic pathologist and the Director of the Hospital. She’s strict, firm, intelligent. Mitsuki has a soft spot for Yasu, who tells her to rest!! She’s particularly strict towards Sojiro and his job. It comes from a place of care, but that’s not always apparent.
