Acro is the first #Vekari character I made, even before I made Vekari itself. I wanted some form of storyline in my artwork
Originally, he was an elf-catperson hybrid who had a mysterious grotesque jaw injury covered by a mask that could emote.
Today he is... much more. 🧵1/8
www.vekari.net is the link!! please enjoy!!

Proof of life and a little sort of behind the scenes to the next #Vekari update
I feel like some form of on-site social communication was inevitable especially with the issues with broadly labelled NSFW content on bigger platforms lately. Feels like a matter of time before I get hit
The first resulted in inhumane mutation testing on kidnapped Exiun in an attempt to make super-beings intended for war, conducted by the Disciples of Tises
The second resulted in mass casualties as The Alchemist tested their ideas of merging human consciousness with technology on captives

#Vekari
A postcard made on a pink index card loosely depicting a human space station, in Vekari lore. Specifically, the one Flek was taken from, one of the last places one can find Earth humans in this timeline. Long corridors lead to escape pods, grow rooms, and munitions. The long "tail" is responsible for connecting to the station's satellite and storing fuel, allowing it to be detached from the rest of the station in emergency situations to avoid major catastrophe. Small scout ships fly ahead to keep the station on course. The ships are surrounded by a reddish pinkish ring of energy that acts as a barrier from small debris. Gold foil accents the image where cosmic dust clouds might be, and the washi tape in the bottom left corner symbolizes a portal or gateway for people to disappear through, landing on Vekari. The "postcard" is stamped with a Haloran stamp that is cut in half and hole punched 3 times on one end. As long as most of the stamp is visible on mail, this cutting and pasting of stamps in half or other fractions is accepted by their post. The triple hole punch indicates that it has been accepted and mailed. Often, people keeping postcards or similar mail are able to keep them on a dedicated ring passed through these hole punches.
Exhausted late night art
Randomly dripped blue ink, messily applied gold foil, washi tape, sticker, various Sharpies, a white paint marker, and a purple stamp pad my knuckle got dipped in on pink index card
No pencils, no sketches, no bottled paints, no brushes, no water

I keep putting fictional creepy clowns in my games bc being an artist in the age of gen AI and the internet's demand for content is a lot like being an underappreciated court jester or party clown
In case anyone wondered
#Vekari #horror #clowns
Neon blacklight painting of the glitched city of Faktoria viewed across a body of liquid. The buildings on the right appear twisted, leaning, and mangled compared to the buildings on the left. The lights dancing on the liquid mix to form every colour in the rainbow.
So many things have been happening at once
#Vekari update soon though. Catch up if you need/want to over the next few days, because this year's Halloween event is going to be a little bigger than a scavenger hunt 👀🎃
Enter the glitched city of Faktoria by accessing vekari.net and stay tuned 🎃🤡

More options to pick a main from, featuring several crowd favourites 👀

I have cool things like this cyber-fantasy #TTRPG that let you make your own gear and classes to face the horrors of #Vekari with. An entire world for you to explore and set your games in. That I have poured several years of my life into. And is open to adapt with attribution.
vekari.net/ttrpg
are your thoughts yours? are your decisions yours? and most importantly are you the original you? gareth sees the player as one person but clearly every player does not share a consciousness does that mean anything or is it just a game? 😇
Sometimes I get asked questions about Vekari and then proceed to drop the most unsettling responses
Anyways, some food for thought

Vekari: Crystal Holo promo image with a rainbow holographic title. Glitchy main character fires a ball of energy ahead while their cat sits behind them, and blue crystals with purple dithering and excessive detail are shown in the foreground. The character runs on a black silhouetted path, with the silhouette of the city behind them.
Vekari: Crystal Holo promo image with a blue title. Glitchy main character fires a ball of energy ahead while their cat sits behind them, and blue crystals with slightly less colour detail than the promo are shown in the foreground. The character runs on a black silhouetted path, with the silhouette of the city behind them. A dialogue box at the bottom reads "Press Start"
I spent far too long on this art please appreciate it
Promo vs in-game because of background colour palette restrictions

Glitchy character glitched into the wall of a card/hobby shop, text box reads "...Please get out of my walls."

2 equally bad options
• mutated into a creature of war by The Disciples post-humously
• The Glitch resurrects your body as... basically a puppet controlled by glitchy code, if you are in Faktoria
As a result of both, dismemberment of the dead is common in both realms as prevention.

You can now become plant. Or whatever else I decide
...Tell me I don't need to give you a little space to decorate using this spell.

Working through my list of spells to implement, we're into the set of base conjure/transmute/transference spells. Cat was one, but now you can also conjure a box!
Which sounds anticlimactic until you realize it's a solid object you can place anywhere you'd like, and damages enemies.
#vekari
Still lots to do to smooth everything out here especially with those panels, but coming along nicely

Vekari is made to make you think, at its core
Not just through puzzles, but about the world itself, how you see it, how you interact with people. My goal as a dev is to get your gears turning, drawing parallels and finding answers as result.
You can start here:

I have good feelings about this one tbh, ik it's early but there's something special here
Added animated waste water and also save system, tested in RetroArch
#vekari #crystalholo #indiegame #gbstudio #retroarch #gameboy #cyberpunk #fantasy #glitch
I continue to be bad at my own game, but look! Cat in tow wandering where it pleases, no lag, multiple enemies running off-screen at once
Great success

Piecing together the first platforming section out of underground pipes, making plenty of areas to learn to use the glitch ability to your advantage before hitting the first part of the city

I write a lot of what I know! Korvak and Gareth both have PTSD that has completely altered the way they live their lives and communicate with people. Tea is very much AuDHD, and Acro can't feel empathy after experiencing a traumatic injury

Glitching right before you jump lets you glitch higher than a normal jump (into the platform and up)
Interesting things for me to keep in mind while designing platforming sections

1 like = 1 Vekari specific non-political opinion, to spice the trend up
That's random opinions about the cyber-fantasy world I made, I have commentary
