I am showing off mostly the #pets from #AThousandBees. It's one of the most fun things in making the level #backgrounds. Do you want to see other cutouts instead?

And a tags post following this #GeniusLoci location. In my #worldbuilding, I try to alternate between nice and terrible places. This is... probably a terrible one, I am not so sure really.
Do you focus on adventure-worthy places, or something else?

The Broken Jawย Rocks
Deep in the yellow forest lie the Broken Jaw Rocks. They are a large, roughly circularly arranged mass of sharply jagged rocks, in a swamp whose permanent mist enhances the mysterious atmosphere, making the entire region unusually inhospitable for the yellow forest. Many researchers tried to learn what might be inside the rocks, but none have succeeded so far - although some claim it, and others have gone insane, building up a legend of the rocks possibly being cursed, or inhabited by unspeakable things.

I love so much about this game - the adorable neo-80ies witch art style, what I got about the narrative and worldbuilding in the demo, dialogs, all of it. It shows that that you poured a lot of effort into it, I am excited for the full game!

The obvious answer to this is "Just... bear." - "This city is weird."
Thanks! When I introduced animal lords it became clear that all animals are full of personality and all have their own cultures.

Burrmo
The burrmo are large predators of the Great Forest in Gdera. They are about three meters long, with a plushy tail, long head, and dirty-looking greenish fur. Burrmo are man-eaters - literally, in a group of people, they'll go for the humans first. Otherwise they hunt appropriately large quarry. The burrmos' ferocity is infamous, and being allowed to wear any part of them is an honour; most wanted are the thick fur and hide, claws, and teeth.

Thanks so much! I am happy you liked it. The first is, obviously, one of the less challenging levels with fairly "findable" bees ;) When I recently set up the largest level I noticed I have become better at hiding them!
