Hi and Welcome to the Santria Retrospect for the year 2019! It marks the fourth year of development (where is the time going?!) and a lot of stuff in my private life distracted me again from gamedev like in the years before so maybe I should stop pointing it out and take it as granted? Haha!&nbs...

Hey friends! Sam here. Now that the Indie Art Calendar organized by our friend Zugai is open for pre-orders, I thought I would share the progress I've made on my contribution for the month of August. I'd say I'm about halfway done, so wish me luck in getting this done in time! 2019-11-06 20:50:36 +0000 UTC View Post
Hello friends! Sam here. I've been working on the Moonshell Island title screen speedpixel video and it's nearly done! It will be a video with commentary and a bit of music, and as such I would like to include a credits section at the end with your names! Please let me know via private message if you prefer a specific name other than the one you...

Spooky greetings! Sam here. Recently I completed the Cabana Club area in Moonshell Island, and the speedpixel is so long that I want to turn it into a video with commentary, so it will take a little longer to share. You can check out the reveal in 2019-10-31 15:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post
Happy Halloween, dear friends! As seen in Schotti's recent tweet, here is The Count, in speedpixel form! You can even see a new expression at the end of the progress.

Well, crash-landed that is. Something went wrong in the acorn ship, and now these two cheeky space travelers are stranded at the Cabana Club until they can get it working again.
The owner of the club is quite eager to get the ship off his property, so he is partnering with the Cheekynauts to reward those who support them in launching thei...

While I totally forgot to record the speedpixel for the latest Santria portrait (pictured below), I did remember to record the process for the Todd pin I did on stream! Guess I'm a bit rusty after taking a few weeks off. Y^^;Y
