For a few months I've been playing Tomb of the Mask, and I can say that it's one of the few high quality mobile games of recent times. The spritework is amazing, and the idea of a fast-paced puzzle platformer with controls you'd most likely see in a "colour roll" puzzle is innovative.

The only thing that the ads trick you with is that it's going to be an endless "escape the lava" game. But, the endless game is still in the game's arcade mode, and you don't have to use much energy for it.

I just know that this game will become as iconic as Temple Run, Subway Surfers and Angry Birds. In about a decade from now, some guy's going to make a meme about 2010s-early 2020's nostalgia and this will be used in it

I've been watching Subjectively for a while now, since they've always made interesting designs. One of the ways that they've been doing it is by art challenges, such as Inktober and Smaugust.

Because of that, I'm way more into those challenges and want to do some art of my own. That's why I want to do MerMay(either this year or the next). I'd like to have an overall theme of a scaly convention, but I don't know if I actually will do it or not.

I also think that I need more Inktober-style challenges during the year, so as to keep me going. Ever since @Jazza stopped his Newgrounds art competitions, I've been way more confused about what to draw.

What do you think?

Every different colour soul in Undertale represents a different emotional theme, as well as having their own gamemode. My theory is if this applies to monster souls as well

Apart from the orange soul of bravery, we've seen every soul in action in Undertale, and how they relate to their themes, I.e. the yellow soul has a gun, akin to how a sheriff may use one for the sake of justice. Therefore, there should also be an emotional theme and gamemode attached to the white monster soul, which isn't just the same as determination.

I believe that the white monster soul represents the emotional theme of freedom, given how most monsters will talk about how they long for the freedom of their race.

However, the white monster soul should also have their own respective gamemode. That's why I think that it should look like the chase sequences in the game, but with the ability for the player to fight back with their own magic. Of course, the fight would be stuck to one screen, instead of moving across multiple ones.

I just got wifi installed in my house, which has also finished renovations. I'll be posting art soon.

Also, Prince Philip just had his death announced today. Rest in Peace. I may not know him, but I give my condolences to his family who are probably grieving right now.

My house is almost completely renovated, so I'll be moving back there by next week.

If you're still following me, I hope you understand why I had such a long hiatus and didn't unfollow. My account isn't dead, and I'll be posting art soon.

So, I watched Technoblade's stream yesterday, and between the codenames and the idea of taking down people of power, I thought that the Syndicate may relate to the Phantom Thieves. So, here's my idea of his profile:

Technoblade – Code Name: Protesilaus / Persona: Snowball/Napoleon / Arcana: Tower

I chose Snowball and Napoleon mainly because of the theories relating the Syndicate to Animal Farm and how it will affect the story. The first one I heard was that Technoblade would take the role of Snowball, and be overthrown and chased out by his own system. The other was that he would take the role of Napoleon and would eventually have enough power to become an authority or government himself. Either way, he would have his questionable moral code taken to its limit.

I chose The Tower to be his arcana based on the nature of his character. The Tower symbolizes massive or unforeseen changes, and the idea of chaos and destruction. We already know how this fits into Techno's character based on his relationship with L'manburg. However, he himself has experienced massive or unforeseen changes, such as his many betrayals, or the Butcher Army.

Even the reversed tower fits his character. The reversed tower is often viewed as the refusal to change or accept change. While he may be an advocate for anarchy and external change, he's been shown to reject internal change through his stubbornness and belief that the ends justify the means. If the Animal Farm theories line up, we could see Technoblade finally accept change internally, flipping his card into the upright position.

Ever since I've seen this game a few weeks ago, I have been infatuated with this game. Because of that, I have been thinking of an AU for it. I don't have most parts thought out but I have the rough idea.

Roles:

In this AU, Giorno would be Sunny, Joseph would be Kel, Josuke would be Aubrey, Johnathan would be Basil, Jotaro would be Hero and Jolyne would be Mari. Haruno would be Omori(at least in appearance).

Shizuka would probably be Sally.

The Morioh Warriors(the ones around school age) would be the Hooligans

I'd probably remove stands(apart from as references) so Giorno would have black hair because he is unawakened.

Character designs:

In Giorno's dreamscape, all of the JoJos' designs would be based of their child versions, but probably wearing pyjamas.

In the real world, everyone would probably be wearing home clothes(which is hard to find references for given that half of them wear school clothes), so Josuke and Jotaro would be wearing the shirts under their uniforms, Johnathan would wear what he wore around the start of Part 1, Joseph would wear his red jacket outfit(probably without the red jacket), and I don't know what Giorno would wear.

Edit: I don't know what I'd do for Josuke's design as a hooligan or "Yankee" since Yankees incorporate school uniforms into their clothing, but I know that josuke would probably wear something based on Josefumi Higashikata, given his connection to Josuke in Part 8. Also, since Aubrey had pink hair to match Mari's, Josuke would have a gold broken heart earring on his left ear.

Somethings/backstory:

Johnathan and Giorno's somethings would be different as well. Jonathan's would have minor changes: it's shape would more resemble a puddle, since Jolyne's hair is tied back. However, Giorno's would be significantly different because of the context:

In the past, Giorno would play a piano and Jolyne would probably the orchestral version of the main instrument in her theme. The majority story would probably play out the same, but it would diverge after Giorno takes Jolyne's body outside of the house with Johnathan. Jolyne would be laid down near the side of a stream while Giorno would be gathering flowers with Johnathan for Jolyne. Unfortunately, her body would slip below the water, exposing one of her eyes and traumatizing both Giorno and Johnathan.

(The bottom section represents Jolyne's braid, the middle eye is the exposed eye and the two either side are her tufts of hair being misinterpreted as extra eyes. Overall, it has an upside down raindrop shape, which fits with Johnathan's something looking like a puddle. I also just find it cool imagining Giorno's something rise up from the floor like a raindrop)

I think "Something"s would be called "Stands". So "Something in the Dark" would be called "Stands in the Dark" or "Stand's in the Dark", and the same for the other main Somethings. This isn't just because it's a reference, but because stands and something's are coined for similar reasons: Basil coins "something" because he believes "Something" is behind Sunny, and Joseph coins "Stands" because he believes they "Stand" behind you.

Routes:

The "Sunny Route" would be renamed the "Buon Giorno Route", and the "Hikikomori route" would be renamed the "Diogenes route" after Diogenes syndrome.

I hope you liked this concept, since I probably won't do much on it. If you want to do any content on it just ask me first.

I forgot to say this, but I've temporarily moved from my house for renovations. It's going to last a few months, but the builders are trying their hardest to get it done quickly.

Try not to expect any art in that time. Sorry.

I've been watching the Dream SMP for about half a year and I really like it. I mainly watch Technoblade's streams because he's on YouTube, but also watch videos which come out about it.

Anyways, I've been thinking of a swap AU for the Dream SMP(I'd probably call it "Techno SMP"). I'll probably never get to it but, if I do, these would be the swaps:

Dream with Technoblade

Tommyinnit with Tubbo

Nihachu with Fundy

Schlatt/Glatt with Wilbur/Ghostbur

BBH with Skeppy

Philza with Eret

Ranboo with Karl

Antfrost with Awesamdude

The next ones would be maybes, but I try to focus on symmetry with relationships when swapping

Quackity with Georgenotfound(this is a big "maybe". IDK if Sapnap would be better, but I chose it because of Quackity's fear of Technoblade somehow relating to George facing Dream in manhunts)

Punz and Sapnap(both skilled assasins)

Captain Puffy with ConnorEatsPants

Callahan and Alyssa(honestly, at this point I'm looking at "Relationships" and filling in the blanks)

By the way, I probably wouldn't include guests because they aren't part of the canon.

2020 hasn't been a good year so far, and I doubt 2021's going to be any different. It sucks that Boris Johnson pulled the rug on us by suddenly telling us we couldn't meet up for Christmas. Overall, this year has definitely been interesting to say the least.

Either way, there's still a few things to look forward to next year: Prince Phillip's going to be 100 in June, and my account's going to be five by the end of October. The Olympics were delayed, but they'll come back next year. Also, a tested vaccine's probably going to come out during the summer

I just hope that nothing worse happens, and that we'll be able to come out of this mess alive; At least those who still are.
