WIP The Neolysian Manu population is miniscule compared to the other species, and even less so now with the given circumstances. A society split in half due to opposing ideals - One half desired to find shelter from the harsh winter elements that plague the East, while the other remained faithful to their leader and wished to aid in the translation of ages past. The cabal that defected headed south to the Grand Vault of Ardoven, and underground city of opportunity, progress, and survivability, hoping fellow Manukind would welcome them in. And while it did, there were signs that it wouldn't last long. This vast underground city was at an imbalance - not everyone had their needs met, such as clean water, proper temperature regulation, and minimum wage pay. The Neolysian people were stuck in the crowded Crevasses of the city.

And worse... the Sherborne Family took notice of them.

Neolysians, native to this planet, were more at home on Enziyama than anyone else, attuned to the lunar energies that raged above as Calamity Storms. In their draconic scales, there were hints of crystalized Atrosite. Natural energy storage units. The Sherbornes made a proposal that the Neolysians couldn't refuse - relocation to the Heart of Ardoven, where living conditions were at premium levels, with the condition that they would work for the Families.

The crucial information left out was HOW life would treat them.

After years of slavery and cruel live testing, a handful of Neolysians escaped with fur discoloured from stress and tails bare from scale extractions. Without their scales, performing Soul Arts would be detrimental to their already poor health. So many were left behind, still tolling their lives away as their non-anthropomorphic ancestors did the previous era.

A rage burned in the hearts of the escapees. Today, they've returned to the gritty depths of Ardoven, repainting their red markings and forging technology that would make their ability use more efficient. The Soul Arts have grown a new branch from the determination of the Neolysians. This group would call themselves "The Resilient".

They have one overall mission in mind - to free the remainder of their people from the darkness of the Grand Vault.

- THE GARDENIA CATALOGUE -

A new character to add into the Maze cast!

Her name is Pomadito and she's gonna represent as one of the Elanolian residents involved in the gardening and produce sector of the Sphere, which extensively relies on hydroponics as a workaround with the lack of nutrient-rich soil.

Would be cool that she would have a gardening catalogue demonstrating the fruit varieties found in the Maze. I'll make a separate post with more detail about her lore later.

Thank you for all of your support this 2025, I hope that I can be just as productive in 2026!

(And I only had to pull from the vault of 'not really good enough to share' once (you can probably tell which one it is xD))

I really pushed my skills once my inspiration kicked in again past September... too many good choices to pick from~ 😌💙

[str-lite]

Gee, bet no one can guess what I mostly did throughout this year-

I'm really glad that I started making my game as a solo dev, that's the biggest feat for me. Still rough around the edges, but I'll keep going for sure. :]

Less art output for sure, but at least I locked in~

Funnily enough, a lot of my characters' designs were driven by music. I listen to so many genres and would always tune to a particular one depending on who I work with:

Minka (left): Favors pastels and neon cyan-magenta, which derives from energetic synthwave and cheery future funk aesthetics.

Starla (right): Prefers muted and dark/navy tones but could have some bright red or turquoise accents. Mostly colour-picked from post-rock and shoegaze album covers.

Jordain: Likes chillwave and synthy downtempo types as he puts them up as his workshop's background music. His green palette suggests that he grew up from a neighbourhood surrounded by eco-futuristic solarpunk.

Kumori and Limon: Some particular type of mallsoft (a more subdued and washed out vaporwave) that samples 1970s jazz fusion and city pop. They look for nostalgic break when their lives are consumed by tech and corporatism.

Jordain is the opposite as he is the most "techy" to almost conforming levels, while the others seem to adapt their sense of themselves around technology (as vaporwave relies on sampling) and simply live "as what it is" in its new form.

Only Starla stands out from all of them since her tastes align more with Banthophlo's music scene rather than Elanolia's, which reinforces how little she fits into the Sphere's norms. She hugs her guitar way too much.

I'll try to be active here again, let's just see how it goes lol.

Animated pixel doll commission for Luckylukoa on BSky! 🩵🐺

Ooh, it's weird getting back to this platform again LOL. I'm still not used to Tumblr in general but I told myself I'll make use of it to post stuff more.

I currently have small sprites currently available, but I'll soon make a post shortly about the rest of my larger-scale commissions. The rest of my other stuff are also available for unlimited slots on my Ko-Fi.

DM or email me if you have any questions! Spreading word is also appreciated.

Will you have what it takes to make it to the other side of the Maze? 🕛🦖🌲

Early Access Trailer is out! I'm happy to announce that my game now has a Steam Store Page. ^^

Stay tuned for when it'll be released -- I plan to release it on Itch.io firsthand (as the stakes on Steam are terrifyingly high, so I'm playing it safe).

Archlyphion: Migration by ★ L I 7 Ξ

Will you reach to the other side of The Maze against all odds?

Archlyphion: Migration on Steam

Archlyphion: Migration tells a story of a lone Beanie who, after a fire broke out in their habitat, must make a run for it. Perhaps the herd

[archlyphion]

Now in different flavours :]

Although they're likely created by the Time of the Maze, Beanies themselves are pretty timeless in nature. It comes to show when they are typically found in places outside of the Spheres, and instead live in the most chaotic and transitionary areas called the Bridges.

My most fun line of thought is that we perceive dinosaurs as prehistoric creatures that exist only at a time period that's extinct to us, but these fellas on the other hand play against that by existing across all civilized eras (even if they have to be downgraded like chickens).

Even then, this wilderness isn't all that bad since they are well-adapted to them already. They see every encounter and physical distortion as a surprise.

Would be cool to make an infographic of sorts about this-
