[BB: ENCORE] Ch. 2 Features 4K animations!

Why 4K animations for Chapter 2 when Chapter 1 was in 1080p?
Because 4K lets me do clean in-game zooms without losing quality on 1080p/2K screens, giving you the best experience

And don’t worry about file size, the mod won’t be heavy. I compress everything in WEBP, which makes files extremely small.
Example: PNG 38.6 MB → WEBP 1.87 MB

Chapter 1 had 38 animations scene images and still weighed only 39 MB (Thx WEPB).

BB: Encore - Chapter 2: Shot 04 (WIP)

I’ve made solid progress on this scene and should be able to finish it tomorrow. I’m still undecided about adding the reflections, since that would take some extra work if I want to match the style of the latest Beat Banger animations.

By the way, I noticed I made a mistake with the garter belt strap, I only realized it after taking a step back. It’s not a big deal though, it shouldn’t take me too long to fix that little detail!

🐑 Big Changes for Chapter 2!?

Hey everyone, it’s been a while since my last post — here’s why.

I’ve been struggling with character design, which caused a lot of stress. This chapter was meant to help me improve in both character design and backgrounds, but I realized I still need more practice. So I’ve been training every morning for 4 hours before working on the chapter. Since that’ll take time, I didn’t want to leave you waiting for months with no updates.

I decided to change my approach: the o...

Meet the Chubby Red Panda!

I’ve started working on the three character designs, and here’s the one I chose. It’s still a work in progress!

Sorry it’s taking me some time, this kind of work is more challenging for me than animation. With the practices I’ve done, I should finish all three designs by early November and start the level storyboard, then move on to animation around November–December.

Hope you like this chubby/shortstack red panda! I felt Beat Banger needed a character with some extra ...

✨Fan Album Ch. 1 – Vote + Suggest (01)✨

I’ll be doing several polls for a special album inspired by your ideas!
I plan to make 10 illustrations of Zoe, 10 of Claire, and 10 of them together.
But I’d love to add 10 fan suggestions too, or even more if you’d like me to keep drawing them!

Missed your chance last time? Drop your idea in the comments for the next poll!
Keep it short so everyone can read it easily.

Chapter 2 Is Underway!

I finally started Chapter 2 yesterday! The script and beatmap (gameplay) are done, and I’m about to start the character designs. I’ll be spending a lot of time studying, so I think it might take 2–3 weeks since I also want to pick up where I left off with Zoe and Claire. I’ll soon put up a vote for the suggestions you gave in the comments.

Chapter 2 will also take longer because I want to add backgrounds to the animations to make everything more immersive "almost like a short fi...

Recovering & Getting Back to Work!

Sorry, my bot hasn’t been working because of some changes on Patreon. I also hadn’t replied for a few days because I was sick, it started on Sunday (Sep 28), and was quite mild at first, but I’m finally starting to feel better today (Oct 5).

I’ll be fixing the bot on October 6, so the links I’ve posted won’t change until then while I get everything updated. Thank you for your patience! I plan to start Chapter 2 right away on Monday, since I know you’re excited to see the n...

What I’m Working On This Month

Back from a long vacation! I’m diving into the photo album for Zoe and Claire and finishing two animations (Hekapoo and Princess Emelie). There’s also one last animation missing from Chapter 1, I was supposed to finish it last month but ran out of time.

This month I’m focusing on the album and these three animations!

Oh, and since it’s Undertale’s 10th anniversary, I really want to draw Toriel, I’ll probably post one or two drawings of her. Expect new posts almost dail...

MEGA Link Update Bug Report & Upcoming Fix

I’m really sorry about the bugs with my bot, which is supposed to fetch the MEGA links from Discord in order to update them on the MEGA pages. I still need to review it again later next week, it’s starting to wear me out that it doesn’t work 100%.

REDIT 08/11: I just saw the problem and I think I know what it is, but I’ll fix it next weeks. I’ll leave a temporary link during the next few weeks, so at least you won’t have any issues accessing my content.

I’m also bringing back a bit of that BB vibe, with my own twist, while keeping things simpler than the animations to save time.
