The latest background for Human Cargo has been completed by kjkjmulo. Here we have the Observation Deck. In the game, this screen is actually animated, with a moving background.
There's also an alternate version with a nebula background as we approach the Alioth system. I can't wait for these to get added to the game so you can see them!

The latest background for Human Cargo has been completed by kjkjmulo. This is the interior for the Border Station docking platform. So shiny! It will be available in the next game update. The next background in the queue is the observation deck.

What's new!
Work on the Zed sprite is in progress. Our alien security guard is turning out even better than I expected!
Artwork for Zed is by Jacky Black. Check him out on Twitter!
Look for Zed in an upcoming build of the game!
Merry Christmas from the crew of the Barakai!
We have a second CG coming in the next beta release!
This artwork (NSFW) will be shown at the beginning of Chapter 5 when Yoshi wakes up in the morning. In addition to the image, I've revised the accompanying text a bit, expanded it, and got it ready for multiple paths.
The Yoshi CG was illustrated by Illuminate001.
So without further ado, here is Yoshi in all his glory!

Artwork for our hunky ship's engineer Nasir is now complete!
Nasir was designed by Jacky Black. Jacky is moving from Tumblr to Twitter, so check him out and follow him!
Because he gets hot and sweaty so easily, he wears his jumpsuit hanging off at the waist.
Here are several variations of him you will see in the game. He has five different expressions and two poses. In addition to his nude ...

kjkjmulo continues to astound with the gorgeous background art for Human Cargo. This time we have the cargo freighter’s Medical Bay. There are so many details I love about this background, including the computer imagery and bed details.
Next up is the Trading Post on Cygnus Colony, wher...
2018-11-20 15:30:58 +0000 UTC View PostArtwork for our main character/player character Yoshi has been completed. Here's a preview of his bio page!
"Yoshi was born and raised on Cygnus Colony. His mother died when he was a teenager, and Yoshi remained with his stepfather, Clarence. As soon as he was old enough, he began working at Clarence's trading post."

2018-11-18 02:33:54 +0000 UTC View PostArtwork for our freighter pilot Razix has been finalized!
Here he is in two different poses, in and out of his work uniform!
Razix is our cargo freighter's pilot, and is the second sprite scheduled to be completed for the visual novel. He's flirty and funny, and if you choose his path, you'll end up with a sensual romance that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Here's a progression showing sketch versions of him, plus a shaded version that is close to the final artwork.
And here's his preliminary bio page.

The cargo bay is an important area of the ship. It's the first area of the freighter Yoshi encounters after escaping the pirates.
I am beyond pleased with the work kjkjmulo has done with this background. I'm excited to show this art off, and we have some more good things coming!
The Kol sprite has two different poses, along with two outfits, his regular uniform, plus a version in his underwear. He also appears naked, naturally.
Kol is Katarran - an alien. His physique is familiar, but slightly different from a human male. But he does have all the right equipment in all the right places ;)
Here is a preview of what to expect from our fearless captain!
