The Followers of Unity Designs!

After 20 or so chapters of only being written, I finally have designs for these poor guys! The Ultimate Cookie's (mostly unwilling) followers! Both what they looked like during the Timeless Kingdom arc and post Dream a Little Dream of Me (sorry Sugar, but your well meaning actions have horrible horrible consequences)!

These five cookies spent almost a century trapped in the time loop plaguing Castle Custard after the end of the War of Ultimatum. They went through the same hour over and over again, driving them to the edge of sanity until they were freed by The Ultimate Cookie and promised freedom in a new world if they did what it asked of them.

But it's not like they're happy about it. Desperate times call for desperate measures and these measures are the most desperate you can get!

Design talk and silliness under the cut! (plus this fucking guy god i hate him)

theyre so fun to draw. look at them. theyre such color characters. i need to bash their heads in with a rock.

so i had lots of thoughts about these designs, which is why it took so dang long to get them out on paper.

starting off with Wheat Grain. I wanted to keep her Chinese inspirations, so she's wearing a very simplified hanfu. i mostly used colors from her original design, but i leaned slightly more yellow to fit the colors of the Custard Kingdom, since that is where she's from! She has Custard's insignia on her clothing to signify her status as a higher up in the castle's order, being the top healer under Custard's tutelage. She sort of gives me like, Mao Mao vibes from TAD. I also gave her little grain decor, because its cute and i like it. She's a lot less refined, dough wise. Mystic Flour seems to be made with pure baking flour, whereas Wheat Grain, not being Witch-Baked, is like whole wheat flour.

post-daldom her eyes changed. she struggles to see now and often keeps them closed unless in the field. She's Unity's eyes in the sky.

next up Paprika. what a guy. So there was a minor issue with his design where I was hesitant to change his cultural inspirations. He's Indian-inspired, whereas the Chili Pepper Kingdom is Thai. However, through thorough research i learned that Thai and Indian cultures are heavily linked! So I no longer felt as bad leaning more towards Thai inspo for his design while keeping up the basic elements from BSCs canon.

post-daldom his lungs filled with dough and it stained his teeth. It's a very unfortanute look for him.

Blueberry Milk is the bane of my existence and yet I love him dearly. Since he's the Blueberry Yogurt Academy Headmaster, I took a lot of design elements from the two canon CRK headmasters, which actually made him very cute and colorful. he also has a much more similar color palette to wizard now with the purples, which doesnt help the rivalry. i also took three versions of his hair (sage, fount, smc) and mashed them together in his silly messy ponytail.

post-daldom, he kinda lost it on sugarcube for attempting to defect, scared of going back to the timeloop or worse. untiy chopped his head off to silence him. dont worry, he got better. but now he can pull off his head. it really messes up his ruffle collar though.

sugarcube was the most simple to design, but god her forehead is huge without the crown. its crazy. i made her look a bit more pale and tired, to showcase her sickly nature. her icing is messy and her wings droop and touch the floor. she tries to cover up as much as possible to keep the chill out, so her robes are long sleeved.

post-daldom, we saw in hollyberrys chapter that her hands turned black and she was forced to use her power to reset hollyberry. its like that all the time now. shes barely in control of her own hands.

finally, rock salt. ive talked about his design before! hes based of his guide of the crumbled costume since i thought it fit the lighter atmosphere of castle custard but the somberness of his story. plus his chest insignia to showcase being custards personal guard and more yellows for the custard kingdom! what a guy.

post daldom, the dough seeps from the insignia and it reminds him everyday he betrayed his king and his kingdom. it fuels his hatred for tuc and his want to leave, but he sees no ways out.

but yay! finally!

i may do sketches and silly stuff later. i wanted to do them now but my apple pen died rip in peace.

Don’t tell me… this isn’t our first conversation?

[idiotwhotalkstoomuch]

I’m hearing about the life simulation game ‘Paralives’ and am quite fascinated by it.

Particularly about the ‘no paid dlc’ thing because honestly I’m not confident in that working? People love to insist paid DLC is “EA brainwashing” but the Sims franchise had paid DLC long before EA ever had the games with Maxis doing it.

Note: I am saying this all intending to understand Paralives more. If you just wag your finger and say I’m brainwashed you’re not helpful.

In this argument people love to cite Hollow Knight and Stardew Valley as examples of no paid dlc working just fine but those aren’t the same genre of games. Action Adventure Games and Farming sims don’t live and die off of new content as much as life simulation games. Furthermore, those are some of the best selling indie games point blank period. I’m positive thousands of indie games wish they were like Hollow Knight and Stardew Valley.

Paralives is going up against games like the Sims 4 and Inzoi, two games by massive corporations still currently updating. I’m just not sure how much they could stretch their profit on it even if they kept up Patreon to stay alive with those giants there to compete.

I’m not saying Paralives should have 20 billion DLCs for the most mundane things. I’m just saying I think like a solid like 3-5 giant packs charging 5-10 bucks to add say a Supernatural Pack with a bunch of Occult sims or 5-10 bucks for multiple brand new worlds with a strong base game would be perfectly fine.

I’m willing to hear the counterargument for this though and hear out why people think the ‘no paid dlc’ is a good idea that isn’t just “Look Silksong did it” cause Silksong is NOT a game that a lot of indie games can live up to. Triple A games yes but expecting an indie studio to make the next Silksong is fucking ridiculous.

[kirabook]

Yes, there are indie games like Paralives. Not just Stardew Valley and Hollow Knight, but Minecraft (previously indie game), Terraria, and the game most similar to Paralives (in my opinion), No Man's Sky. To my knowledge, Subnautica also had a steady stream of updates that users didn't need to pay for to enjoy.

Like yeah, Paralives is entering the life sim genre with the big boys (The Sims and Inzoi), but Paralives is not a big boy. It's still an indie game following typical indie game monetization. Not ALL indie games do this, but many do. I'd argue most do.)

I think as future enjoyers of this game, we must remind ourselves that this is a humble indie game. It's almost like a double edged sword.

They don't have hundreds of developers on hand. That means they can't work as quickly and maybe not everything has the same level of polish a AAA game would.

They are only 13-14 people. They don't have corporate responsibilities or stakeholders to obey. Less bureaucracy means feedback actually reaches the people who can fix or change things.

They have less funding, but also less people to pay.

[idiotwhotalkstoomuch]

I appreciate you giving me some feasible examples and a way to actually understand this update model, really does help. (Much more than the mfs insisting questioning how games make money are brainwashed)

That is a good point about Stakeholders. I know thats actually a common discussion point with Mattel vs MGA. Being a private company, MGA can work much better at a loss without the same stakeholders to keep happy that Mattel does.

I’m quite excited to see how Paralives shapes up. I’ll possibly pick it up if I see the updates really will come in as promised since right now we’re betting on the company being able to deliver on this promise rather than anything actually guaranteed. Just wanna see if it will actually keep up updates unlike some other indie games that stop updates abruptly due to failing to meet expected sales

Really a lot of games these days actually update more after launch but I suppose a lot of my skepticism is from how expensive life simulation games are. Especially ones with customizable 3d models

[idiotwhotalkstoomuch]

I would like to give an update on this post to say I bought the game! Its more buggy than I would like but it is an indie game and so far its been pretty fun so I'm willing to look past it a bit. Plus in the Philippines its only 16 US Dollars as opposed to 40 US Dollars. I'd probably be more upset about the bugs if it was that expensive.

With how good the game has been doing it feels nice to actually see my skepticism may be proven wrong.

New Legendary Costume Bond Unlocked!

Dawning Era of Darkened Victory

"At the end of every battle, a victor shines above, accompanied by their trophy. Twisted and tainted by whispers of saccharine promises and lies, this Cookie has given up on his ideals and turned towards the darkened light of Unity. Chained by the souls of those he once called friends, Gingerbrave Cookie has shunned his past of a great saint and became the Ultimate Cookie's trophy, the hand standing beside the shadowed one as it plots its next scheme. But when night falls on Earthbread, he swears he can hear the faint voices of his friends, calling out to him." "How much longer can you run from your guilt, Gingerbrave?"

omg i finally got it done!! yayyy!!!

oh. my. gosh. gingerbrave gave me so much trouble. genuinely, the design you see now only came to me after i had finished his first rendition. he was originally supposed to become a dark enchantress cookie, but i'll save that for when i do... something else. let's talk about design! nothing fancy like the ultimate cookie, because, gingerbrave took me too long to draw. but, i do like how i drew the hat, which you may have noticed has eyes to show how the Ultimate Cookie watches Gingerbrave's every moves, all the time. the veil over his right eyecing is supposed to hide something... but what? that veil looks so ugly, i can't even lie. i did not want to restart the whole thing a second time.

the diamond jewel on his collar is supposed to be, like, a reference to wheat grain! sometime after gingerbrave becomes like, a willing ally, wheat grain is appointed as his personal servant/healer, and that gem holds her soul, tying her to him. i could've picked something else as their connection, like a pin, but what's done is done!

this could have looked so much uglier, but at least i can start on something new now! If i spent this much time on my own au (WHICH I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED WRITING YET DUDE) and my tumblr (an empty barren of posts. i HAVE TO start posting soon for my au, if crk doesn't explode in on itself), i'd be finally content this summer. so let's say hi to trophy gingerbrave!! ugliest costume i've ever made, but it's only competitor is the ultimate cookie, and i used all my skill on him, so really, it's no surprise there.

i did not have to write a whole au for ts, but the brain worms got me moving. if your next fics don't get MORE popular soon, i will crash out because your au got people making whole art and stuff for it. all the anons should boost this and the fic so my fanart doesn't go to waste, and because i wrote this in an askbox and not a post i could have easily tagged you in so tumblr can just obliterate this ask.

im an anon too so like, anons gotta stick together!

anyway i forgot to add my watermark on this so time for lore drop in a smol little comic!

yay!!!

anyway... next time...

i hope you enjoy it! because if you didn't, just call me a clown

BTW!!! there's a backstory post i'm sending seperately because this ask was too long so, like, yeah!!!

JESUS FREAKING SAVIOR DUDE YOUVE LEFT ME A WHOLE FIC IN MY INBOX

it’s so good my god, even if it’s just separate little scenes they’re genuinely peak man.

also i LOVE the veil if you speak bad about it again im going to throttle you ITS SO CUTE! it also looks kind of like an angle wing covering his crack like 👀👀 ooooigh i adore it. and his little hat!!!! i think if you wanted it to look “better” (even though it’s astounding), maybe having the veil attached to the hat would be more your fancy!

i like how you’re taking the other followers into consideration still! wheat grain does currently act as a right hand/main healer for TUC and the other FOU so you’re pretty in point with how she would act here as well!!! amazing!!

i’m giggling i’m giggling you really didn’t have to do all this but i always support the brainworms !!!

though i should say, i don’t really care if my fics are popular or not! i don’t need like…. jambound levels of recognition, though it would be cool. I’m really glad I have as much as I got already! i didn’t even expect this many people to have read it AND enjoyed it enough to make amazing stuff like this!

if you guys really want it to be big enough to yap about and make posts about (instead of slaving away in my asks /silly), you can share it as much as you like! tiktoks and discord servers and such. but again, i’m happy as i am!! i love the little community we’ve got.

it’s actually getting to the point where i need to make a masterpost…

anyway— I’ll post your writings as well! it may take me a moment since I’m quite busy and I want to actually articulate my thoughts…

hey wait what do you mean they slimed out hollyberry
