OWs are definitely the trickiest parts of spriting a character i feel. there's so much detail you need to figure out how to abstract down to a tiny frame and still have things be somehow legible. a big pit i fall into is using too many dark colours in an attempt to make things stand out from each other and then oops, whole thing looks a mess, start over xoxo. these new ones are excellently done and i adore the hair swoosh, esp alice also dev lp is not dead yay!!!!!

Very cool and informative post! Completely agree with the point about trees not aligned fully to the grid looking nicer, it feels more natural in a way. It's really little things like these which really elevate the gen 3 while keeping the familiar. Reading through the post and not realising the transition of the wildwoods until you mentioned that at which point I quickly scrolled up and went "ohhhh yeah that DOES change environments". Love the soft look of the new tilesets, they're very warm and cozy. Thank you for the meal, it was scrumptious :D

Very interesting dive into the music creation process! I used to be very unclear on the different work of the composers and production people so this clarified quite a few questions i had. Also, mega noivern.... it's peam..... Since you guys asked, I'd like a similarly in-depth look into the map creation process! As an aspiring fangame dev myself, it's one of the two spaces im not acquainted with at all (the other being music creation haha) so it'll be neat to see a deep dive into that :) Been doing more spriting lately so this sentence just speaks to me a lot (the voice from the sprite mines are never ceasing) Awesome work on everything and cheers to getting Episode 7 over the finish line!

This a small script which repurposes an old essentials function which let you take pixel perfect screenshots. I modified it to change the keybind tthe 'P' key when ingame. The screenshots are stored in the game's root directory in the Screenshots folder. To use, put this file into patch/Mods (create the folder if it doesn't already exist and run the game. System_ScreenshotFix.rb Report any bugs (there really shouldn't be any) here on ping me @paradoxvault in the #reborn-mods channel in the server.

Ren and Venam have both dealt with vitus before. Specifically in the past. And now they're our partners for a section where we go to what looks suspiciously like vitus' mansion from the past. Surely there isn't a correlation to be mad here Sidenote: the new animations??? Are so good???? The starting Risa dance... The fucking clear/risa hybrid it's just SO peak. Also... Clear's words: when she says we've changed... Is she aware of the two worlds occuring side by side?

Every new blog i read I get surprised at just how much y'all are doing to make Reborn better for everyone. Much love <3

Yall are doing so much for an already finished game and I can't thank you enough for that. The new built-in updaters and JoiPlay builds are going to make players' and devs' lives so much easier, and we thank you for that. One question though, are these changes possible to be adapted to non-reborn games?

I love how vibrant the colours you use in your sprites are. My favourite has got to the protags (especially aevia's legacy fit girl's slaying so hard)

Rejuv men sure like to put their coats on their arms instead of wearing them LOL. also ngl Patty was the last person i expected would get artwork but she looks so cute kljfnmkflnf

mushroom :D

Ancient Power has Power Gem's description

Since i plan on applying as a writer, are samples containing OCs allowed to be submitted?

we're fighting talon besties W super excited for this update!

A beautifully written message I agree with this completely, Reborn's maps in general portray the setting beautifully, i genuinely was extremely creeped out by Shade's gym back when i first played the game and even managed to get jumpscared recently lmao i agree with almost everything said in this truly, reborn is an amazing game with a wonderful community.

the shard to skip aventurine woods puzzle can be found near where you fought fern on route one
