★ CREDITS ⸝⸝ ◦ God ⸝⸝ Everything <3 ◦ Art ⸝⸝ 100% @PixelDucko (except for some of the background stars which were from the ibis paint asset library? but like everything else was by me so don't worry, i'm just really cautious when crediting help) ◦ Code ⸝⸝ @Zinnea for the mouse trail code i repurposed as the tail particles, @icepenguin000 for the tweening code i modified and @PixelDucko for everything else ◦ Audio ⸝⸝ Orbit by Good Kid ◦ Art Program ⸝⸝ Ibis Paint X ◦ Other ⸝⸝ original project and design by @Star-fiish ★ INSTRUCTIONS ⸝⸝ just look and use the arrows on the screen or arrow keys to advance ★ NOTES ⸝⸝ I LOVE THEM OUHH this is pretty much what you get when you combine my favourite theme (space) and some of my favourite colours. they're so fun to draw too... ok art time 1. tweened vector thing. this was i think the first time i ever drew a feral fullbody in vector and it was a pain but also very fun. i locked in guys this took a lot less time than i thought it would. then i tweened it because i thought it would be cool!! except i don't know how to tween so i took the code from @icepenguin000 and modified it, all in all i REALLY like the result :D lineless art my beloved... 2. the original untweened vector thing 3. OK SO i was thinking of lore for them (more info below) and i thought they'd make a good friend for one of my other characters!! (designed by @FuliQueen) this is just a scene of them hanging out. i really like the background 4. experimental sleepy icon!! i love the colours 5. animatic thumbnail except the animatic isn't real and probably won't ever be real but it's cool to imagine anyway! and yeah it's two birds by regina spektor aka THE angsty duo song of all time 6. not by me, this is just the og design by @Star-fiish for reference 7. might add more later idk okk yapping about the art done, now yapping for the backstory: (i'm gonna use she/her pronouns for this description btw but it might not be her final gender! also psychic is a placeholder name) so i have this story called "mayday, nebula!" (exclamation point included) where i slam all of my space-themed designs into and watch them frolic and run off into sunsets (jk they’re in mortal peril but we don’t talk about that). so far it’s VERY undeveloped but if i win, i’d definitely include them in the story! (also mayday, nebula! is the same story as the character from if you're curious) i'm getting uneasy vibes from her. like an undercover spy. like she was best friends with the aforementioned other character (their name's lyra btw) before psychic was recruited to the dark side, hence the two birds animatic. i can see pyschic having some strawberry crepe-esque personality and backstory? the story needs some villains and psychic has the perfect vibes for that “looks like a cinnamon roll but could destroy you” type character. i'm still experimenting with her personality, like for example the sleepy icon was made with the intention of her being purposefully manipulative/unashamed kinda like eternal sugar, meanwhile the vector gives a kinda crazy vibe, but overall i just get strawberry crepe vibes from them. they'd be very chaotic and brash perhaps. other ideas i thought for her also include: a. psychic and lyra were both trainees at an academy (canonically lyra has a job as a messenger that she trained hard for so i'm thinking psychic could have the same job). however, psychic was gifted with excellent ability while lyra wasn't. psychic was offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but that meant she would have to leave lyra behind. she accepted anyway, and so the two drifted apart. possibly in the "drifting apart" stage, psychic would be recruited to the dark side. imagine lyra, just wanting to see psychic again, but the next time they meet is on opposite sides of the war. b. could align with or be in a different universe from the first idea, but psychic is the long-lost daughter of some powerful being. that's why she has the universe on her tail and all. she was lost as a child, though, and grew up believing she had no parents. she finds some sort of found family with the evil side, oblivious to the fact that her true parent is basically this universe's incarnation of good anyway this is one of my long-term serious stories so i like to go at my own pace, which is why i don't have anything really set in stone yet! if the plot demands her to be good instead of evil then that would happen, if it demands her to gain powers and literally destroy the universe then that's cool too "why is the title unconstructed systems that literally has nothing to do with the entry" ok but hear me out... what if she made robots and such, kinda like the wafflebots strawberry crepe made. i think it would be cool for her to have a machine motif in some way, maybe some glitch effects too. language of the lost as a theme song even so yeah!! i'm running out of desc space but thank you for reading my strange rambles o7
