Some more stuff 'cuz I don't feel like spamming. These are all part of a maladaptive daydream worldbuilding project I work on in my spare time. I've tried several different mediums to depict my ideas, including 3D art made in Blender as well as short stories, but I bought Aseprite during the Steam summer sale this year and figured I'd try pixel art next. I have no artistic training beyond K-12 art classes, but you gotta do something badly before you can do it well.

The Lonely Galaxy. The title of the project in Commonthroat

Silhouette of a yinrih, dog-sized arboreal quadrupeds who are the only other sapient species in the galaxy besides humans., Yih, the planet in the thumbnail, being the only life-bearing planet besides Earth, meaning our First Contact is also theirs.

A yinrih using HUD specs, basically Google Glass that doesn't suck. You can't walk and hold a smartphone when your hands are also your feet, so wearable heads-up displays are the norm for portable computing.

The Planet Hearthside, a terraformed planet in the same system as Yih. It's tidally locked. The region around the substellar point is called the Nightless Desert, and the capital, the City of Eternal Noon, is at its center.
