A lot of the lore in my game is hidden in scrolls that the player can dig up. The scrolls look like this and can be read from the player's bookshelf or maybe the menu, I'm still working that out. 1/2

This is the sickle to harvest certain crops and also cut down grass and weeds. This is just a basic idea for the starting version. It's likely not gonna look like this in the end. There are tool upgrades too so it won't always be rusty.

So here is the radish, I wanted to have a wide array of crops so I picked quite a few different crop. I thought it would be cool to have a lot so I did it ^^ I'm trying to not make too many but it's honestly been a lot of fun.

Remember the spring tea leaf? Well here is the autumn variant. I like how it turned out a lot but I'm gonna polish it further down the line, but this is a nice start!

Fun fact! A banana is actually classified in botany as a berry and it's tree is actually a shrub or something similar, I don't remember the actual word but I think that's it. Sure, it grows and looks like a tree but it's not a tree.

This is the orange fruit. It was honestly kinda simple to draw but I took a while to draw it since I wanted to draw other things first. I'm considering doing a few small changes eventually but that'll come later. Right now this works.

The cabbage is another sprite I had a bit of help with. It was originally just a mis-shaped circle but I was given some advice that helped a LOT with making many of my sprites and I'm forever grateful for it.

These are some artifacts that the player can find via digging. I have 2 versions cuz I couldn't decide if the rib bone should have a chunk missing or not. Don't worry about it being a small rib bone or where you find it.

Ok, so I just realized the most recent post has an outdated video, that's my bad. To remedy this, you all get a 2nd post today with the updated version! Both clothed and "nekkid" versions too, tho threaded. Clothed is below.

This is the player walking forward animation. I worked really hard on it to get a nice bounce on it. The player is customizable so there are different things you can change, one of which being skin color which is why it's currently white.

Here is another NPC. This is Petra Skypillar-Mathers, a centaur. I know it doesn't look like it with this view but I promise she is. She, along with her husband and some hired help, runs the general store Skypillar General.

This way the player can choose to spend money to save time, or spend time to save money. A lot of my choices come from childhood frustrations lol. I do intend to polish this a bit more later on tho.

Here we have the coconut. Yes this can be grown and it isn't a forage item. I wanted to have the coconut be a crop so I did. I thought it could be interesting and tbh I just wanted to add it mostly.

Here, have an onion! Ok in all seriousness I intend to eventually go back and edit this a bit to maybe make the stem and leaves a bit taller but all in all it's good for now. :)

Alright, I stayed up super late last night/early this morning getting a LOT of posts either queued or saved in a draft to be queued later and in total it's 52 posts. I'm pretty sure it's everything I have that have but I'll double check.

A stained old doll. One of many things the player can find via digging. It can be put in the library/museum and there's lore here, lots of lore. Don't worry about those dark red-ish stains. They're not relevant ... I swear.
