A roughly blocked out water well in a top-down perspective done in pixel art

To expand slightly on this - in general we keep things generally showing both 'top' and 'front' at relatively even proportions. Try constructing objects from flatter shapes to begin with, focusing on getting the weights of things feeling good. This is how I would start a top down well:

It can be a difficult perspective to work in but a good general rule (that it's also okay to break!) is to avoid for-shortening. Top-down is a pseudo 3-dimensional view where as you get further back (farther up the grid), tiles remain the same width (so objects with ACTUAL perspective feel off).

Can't help but see the Sky Sapper when looking at this beauty, I wonder if it also lays mines...? #pixelart

A pixel art character from AutoForge: Vidi, the Goblin Apothecary. She smiles eagerly with bright glowing eyes. She has long dark hair with bangs, large pointy ears and her mouth is fairly cat-like. Her skin is a pale green/blue and she wears purple robes and a hat with a coin on it.

Completely understandable, and really appreciate the follow up and extra context, thank you. We'll continue to keep an eye out for this issue. Cheers!

Did you do anything you can think of regarding save data that might have triggered this? i.e. deleted saves in game or moved any files.

Also just fyi - Steam Cloud saves are kept in this directory - \Steam\userdata\<youruserid>\1960480\remote\saves - I'd make sure they're not there, too.

I'm sorry I missed this - I saw another report of this and we are trying to look into it. Are you on the discord at all? Getting a full bug report there with the log files would be helpful.

Either way thank you for letting us know.

Somebody on the Discord said the Porters look like rocket thrusters, and I'm just saying.... You're not wrong.

Happy Tubesday, Golems!
If you could transport tube something directly to your seat RIGHT NOW, what would it be?
