deleting blog soon, please follow me elsewhere!

Well I have never nor was I ever planning on posting adult content art, but it’s safe to say that Tumblr’s not a viable platform for sharing my art (it was never particularly great tbh). It would mean a lot to me if you checked out my other platforms!

Past the family graveyard and into the wild..

I’m loving @goodnightpunks-art​‘s game idea and their character Rue Dolores so much.!! I took this as an excuse to collage some pics that I’ve been meaning to for a while. (it kinda looks like a point-and-click game?)

This is some silly concept art for a made up comic/tv show I doodled a while ago. It stars a waitress who is approached by a mysterious regular at her diner who asks her to help save a magical bird kingdom in the sky. She sets off to investigate leads on the whereabouts of the kingdom’s lost faberge eggs and discovers that they lend her strange and fantastic powers on her journey..

Star of Mine game update!

I redid the menu screen for Star of Mine! I haven’t made much recent progress on the game itself, but I’m thinking of refreshing and solidifying all the screens and the GUI and then starting work on the game’s guts. As you can see, I’ve made a logo and couple animations. The load menu is not near finished, but I just showed a glimpse of how it will look similar to the menu screen. The current music is NOT my own, it’s just a placeholder (Suite Precure OST 1 Track 01)

Here’s a good old fashioned before and after!

If you haven’t seen Star of Mine yet or played the very rough demo, you can find it here on itch.io!

Star of Mine! A magical girl OC visual novel!

Star of Mine - visual novel demo

This game follows Marie, a shy 5th grade girl. She takes comfort in her hobbies, primarily drawing a particular character of her own creation. While she finds enjoyment in creating, she is more reluctant about sharing her works. Can you really keep any of your insecurities hidden from middle schoolers, though?

Four original music tracks by Scotty Two-Socks!

​This demo was made in 12 Days for Bubblegum Jam. If you play this game.. it’ll be pretty obvious it is nowhere near finished. ​I had much, much more stupidly ambitious plans for the jam, but this is what I managed to get done. The idea ended up getting bigger and bigger, and I think I only managed to get a fraction of what I hope it will eventually become into this short demo, but hopefully it might spark your interest in seeing a full game. With like, actual options, haha. I’ll be posting updates in the future if you care to follow along with how it will progress from here!

Download it now on itch.io!

Progress shots of my upcoming visual novel “Star of Mine”, being made for the 12 day long Bubblegum Game Jam on itchio. Hope you’ll follow along till when the first version is released in 6 days!

[rachel-utzig]

I’m making a game! in 12 days!! Oh, god!!!

“Star of Mine” will be a short visual novel that centers around a young girl whose passion for art and shyness create the perfect storm - resulting in a fantastically embarrassing adventure. 

Here’s the concept work I completed before the first of the challenge started. As you can see, it’ll be... pink. I’ll be posting my progress all this week from start to (hopeful) finish. This game is being made for Bubblegum Game Jam!

i made these buns to test out a color palette but then they went and named themselves and accessorized -_- tag which bun you wish was your 8th grade social studies teacher

BUBBLEGUM JAM! Starts in 5 days!!! (Theres still time to join it..!) 

Bubblegum Jam is a small comic and videogame jam hosted on itch.io by coralgorithms. Make a comic or game in 12 days, and make it PINK! 

I’m going to be making a short Renpy visual novel. I already have some ideas, but haven’t solidified anything yet. Look forward to a bunch of upcoming progress pics and eventually the game will be up for download on my itch.io. I’d love to know if you’re participating in this jam! I’m so excited!
