June Content Poll!

AIGHT FOLKS! We got another poll! 

I'll be working on side content featuring Maverick, and you guys will direct which content we will explore with Melody or Charlotte!

You can vote on as many as you like, and the top one will be worked on this month! It'll receive an illustration or two!

Go for it!
(Pro tip: Melody is the arctic fox, and Charlotte is the polar bear.)

This Week in the Forest! #80

Yo folks! 

Hope y'all have been well! I HAVE NOT BEEN xD! Quick update, our house plumbing thing got fixed, so I'm back home yay! Then I went to BLFC which was SUPER FUN and where I doodled this messy capybara ;o

NOW IM BACK and I tested positive for Covid yesterday =(. So far it's been kind of mild, but now my throat is hurting pretty badly. Almost feels like strep, but not as bad. FOR NOW Uugh.

It sucks that they've been way more relaxed on restrictions at airports. P...

Hey floofs!! <3
Been crunching this week to finish the scripting for our monthly build! It's close, but not quite show-ready. :O

Happy new week, floofs! Last week I worked on cleaning up old spaghetti code in our Upgrade project, making various scripts react less breakably when their earlier assumptions are no longer true.
For example, if the the camera is following an object, and that object suddenly gets deleted, the camera scripts ...

OOP! Sorry for the late post! I get these weird eye-strain days sometimes and I'm basically forced to go fully blind for like, a day or two while it heals Dx! It's kinda lame, but good introspection and chill time! I was dabbling on the piano a good amount this time for that. That shit's hard, anyone who can play piano well is a god.

3/14 Weekly Update:

Heya floofs!
Spent the first part of the week working on the upgrade project! Everything under the hood is working great, but somehow I broke the top layer of scripts that does most of the visible camera and interactive stuff. It's being hella finicky and it's not quite ready to share... :O
