Inkbunny and Fur Affinity will remain as secondary accounts. I'll still post in here, but some art will be missing. The reason being that they have some weird rules for posting art nowadays. I'm also not really using Pixiv or Twitter anymore.
I also finally made a website with contact info, commission prices, and my social links. I'll be posting some YCH here soon as well, probably. It's gonna be fun doing commissions again.

I'm doing as much as I can. I want to do more. Financial situation is really tough in my country right now. Thank you all for your support, genuinely. Have a super nice day, everybody. 🐾

I want to be more involved in this community.
Posted 3 years agoIt feels like every time I try to move forward, my "local" life pulls me back.
I'm tired. I'm tired of my country, my town, and the people in here.
I'm tired of being judged for my thoughts, my opinions, my points of view, my likes, my ideas. Even by my so-called IRL "friends", whom I can't even share my actual thoughts with.
I'm tired of the drama people fabricate to pass their time, the YEARS going by full of nothing but hate and manipulation from people that keep trying to pull me and each other into their never-ending cycle of anger and distrust.
I'm tired of being CONSTANTLY reminded that I'm "wrong", that my likes and desires are wrong, that I'm not normal, that I need to change. That people with hopes and dreams are stupid, that life needs to be "miserable" to be "real".
I'm tired into being manipulated into doing things I don't like. Of being pushed into a life that feels soulless. Of being drained and gaslighted into believing their shit-talking as if it was the absolute truth.
I'm tired of living in a country where poverty and insecurity go up exponentially every single month. Where even affording food is a challenge. Where everything is trying to steal from each other and nobody cares about anything.
I'm tired of living in a place where having dreams and trying to find ways to be happy is the "wrong way" to do things.
I don't care. I'm tired of this life.
I want to be able to look forward to things. I want to be able to work on my skills and improve at what I like. I want to be understood, not judged for my sexuality, my likes, my passions, my points of view, my thoughts. I want to feel I'm part of something that won't try to constantly pull me down. I want to feel included and be able to share WHO I AM, NOT WHO I'M "SUPPOSED" TO BE.
The people I've met online are some of the kindest, most understanding and caring people I've ever met in my LIFE, and they give me strength to push through. Every time I circle around these thoughts, I rediscover over and over again how exciting and beautiful this community is, and how much I want to be a part of it. How important it is to never give up. People support each other here. People love each other, care about each other, reassure each other, help each other. People are open and allow you to be yourself.
Call it escapism, call it whatever you want. I want to pursue what makes me happy, not what keeps trying to pull me down.
I want to be more involved in this community. I'm just not sure how. But I sure as fuck am not going to give up.
Thank you all for your support.

Let's talk about Amie Dungeon
Posted 5 years agoJust some thoughts I've been having that I'd like to share.
I started this project back in February, super excited about it even though I was unsure if people would be into it at all. To my surprise though, a lot of people were! And that was really motivating. A lot of people cared about the game and wanted to try it out. We even made a group of testers, who have helped me SO MUCH through development. I'm really thankful of all the help and support I've received from everybody. Especially considering it's, well, just a "lewd game".
However, if you're in the discord server, you may have noticed I haven't been very active these last couple months. To be honest, I've been putting a lot of time and effort into this project throughout the year, and at times, it's been more than I should have— keeping me from doing other things I cared about, like my art and composing music. I focused on this a little too much, and big surprise, I ended up getting kinda burned.
So, I felt I needed to take some time away from it and recharge my batteries. I'm still looking forward to developing the game further, I really enjoy working on it and I have been working on it— just less often than before.
Instead, I decided to shift my focus to other things. Like practicing art, which I've been doing a lot lately and I'm really happy about. I also started a (much) smaller side game project for fun too, which helps me keep my mind fresh in the meanwhile. And beyond all that, I went through some family stuff last month that also required a lot of my attention.
Then there's also the matter that I've been having some money problems for a few months now, so that makes everything more complicated. But I've been planning some commission stuff to help with that, which I'll begin working on soon and is something I'm really excited about (more on that later).
Anyway, all of that combined led me to think a bit about Amie Dungeon in general.
The reason I wanted to do a closed beta in the first place was that I didn't want to spoil the experience for players. I didn't want players to play an unfinished game and get bored of it instantly because of the lack of content. But after months of work done, and even though there's still A LOT of missing stuff in the game... I kinda feel it's in a better place now. It's at least playable. And let's be honest, most people will play it only for the lewds anyway, they won't really care about the dialogue and stuff.
So my thoughts are, would it be a good idea to maybe just release the beta publicly already? I can't know how long it will take me to finally get to version 1.0 and out of the beta builds, and honestly, it just feels unfair at this point to make people wait that much longer for a small game like this.
On the other hand though, I'm still thinking— I don't want people to get bored at the characters with almost no dialogue and empty dungeons. But I can't say how long it would take to finish otherwise. And it's not like people can't come back afterwards if they want to check out the updated stuff, anyway.
So... yeah. I'm not sure what the best course of action is at this moment, but I think I'm leaning towards releasing the game as an open beta already. I know a lot of you have been waiting for it. And I'm honestly sorry it's still so unfinished, but I hope you can have some fun with it while I keep slowly working on more updates.
I'm gonna make a Twitter poll about this, and I'd really appreciate it if you shared your thoughts in there. You're all awesome, and I want to thank you all so much for your time and support. We'll see how this goes!
Edit: here's the poll.
