Speedrunner/Artist. I play some games as fast as I can, and also I try to make art.

I like Ralsei (fav char.) Trying to work on my artstyles a bit. Hope you like it! #deltarune #deltarunefanartㅤㅤㅤㅤ

My friend saw this and said I should take commissions lol
(I technically do I just dont have like set rates and it depends my mood. Never thought about it much tbh.)

They fucked up my starfox sandwich twice even though the first 3 times it was fine

Was genuinely shocked to find theres a split on these redesigns. I thought for sure theyd be universally hated like the Sonic movie first draft.

Seeing other opinions made me rethink my first reaction and im a little more open minded to this idea.

But regardless of sort of buckling in and being open minded with what reality has become. I do still feel a few things that i dont think will change with hindsight:

1. Deviating THIS drastically from an original games intended artstyle is not the right way to handle a remake. Save this for a full on reboot. With REMAKES you want to shine the original games potential to its maximum. Not deviate away from what it was setting out to accomplish. There is no angle in which someone can argue in good faith that the developers envisioned Star Fox 64 in particular to look like this new game.

2. Starfox 64 is a reboot of Star Fox, Starfox 64 3D is a remaster of 64. Starfox Zero is a Reboot of 64. And now this is a reboot/remake hybrid. A lot of people are naturally fatigued that we cant get an all new story.

3. People not liking this is not hyperbolic or "looking for anything to cry about".

Drastically changing a look often drastically changes an audience. Presentation in the games industry is a lot more important than people often give it credit. Being bold and doing a hard pivot away with what works can very easily lead to consequences in audience retention.

And I mention that in particular because the negative reactions make perfect sense with that context. People who are loving it are baffled but should you honestly? You cant argue this is DRASTICALLY different not just from recent Foxs established look but also just a complete 180 from what 64 was going for.

Its ok to love it in spite of that. But delusional to think everyone who would react more predictably is somehow faking outrage.

[Lojen @LojenSR]

I'll be honest, I only like 2 of the new models, Peppy, and James. Falco is so butchered I genuinely don't want to buy the game
They ripped their soul out of the characters designs with the new one. Realism only looks good for the terrain and Arwings n stuff.

People keep bringing up the original Starfox puppet sculptures to defend the new direction

But it’s not even remotely similar, the original puppets are stylized & fantastical while this game is more realistic which makes the many colorful characters the series has look bland.

@mcartiie They're adorable!

[Lojen @LojenSR]

Oh yea, forgot I can post here ngl

[Lojen @LojenSR]

@GTM5471 How dare anyone ping or dm me. (I talk to 5 people and (happily) get surprised people know me sometimes.)

[Lojen @LojenSR]

@mcartiie It looks so good!! I've always loved how you do your line-art for your drawings!

[Lojen @LojenSR]

@CinnamonZ3ro Unbelievably grateful for them tho. Sooo you aren't a waste

[Lojen @LojenSR]

[Lojen @LojenSR]

@GTM5471 I used to grind pokey pummel when I played superstars lmaooo. I can't remember what my best was though

[Lojen @LojenSR]

Another coloring and shading experiment featuring Casper!

[Lojen @LojenSR]

Did some sketches and decided to try some coloring. Turned out kinda grungy but I like it! #ADWD #ADatewithDeath

@mcartiie Rare Dent L (jk pls Dent don't end me) That's how it was with one of my friends. We played it online and I can't get him or the rest to wanna play

[Lojen @LojenSR]

@mcartiie I'm jealous I wish I could. My Wii's disc reader died, and I can't get my friends to play it online with me either. 😭
