There is nothing specific which makes it “good”.

You just get used to it. How close anime-style art is to human proportions in terms of the face varies from artist to artist.

The style has evolved over time, and it can still be taken in a variety of directions depending who is drawing. Some make the eyes huge. Some make them tiny. Some entirely omit the nose. Some make the mouth nothing more than a dot. Some make it near-human in detail. Some draw super detailed ears. Some always cover the region with a wild hairdo.

The main thing is that the stuff is drawn by people who are already used to it, and find it appealing. They then change it however they like to increase the appeal for themselves and others.

Over time the style changes overrall to become whatever people find appealing, which means it has ended up quite wierd for everyone that isn’t already accustomed.

Bottom line, there’s no logic. Some theorize anime characters take their facial proportions from cats rather than people (because they’re cute), but that isn’t too consistent either.

AaaAAabs

When looking into the sources used to establish histories, it’s hilarious how often you find there’s just a bunch of historians trying to descipher exactly how seriously they should take one historical figure smacktalking another historical figure, or how accurate they should consider someone’s recounting of their own exaggerated god-like deeds.

Bad bot. How did that haplen?

The game is a good laugh. But by Vanrippers own admission it exists literally just to bait people into drawing a bunch of demon girls, since he felt the internet needed more of that.

There is nowhere near the amount of canon you’d usually have around an IP, but it was just enough for a shitload of people to just run with it.

And here we are :D Demon girls galore!

Not a show.

It’s a game on steam.

Runs on a potato, free, and beatable in about an hour.

Killer gameplay:

• Traverse hell in search of love.
• Win the hearts of horrible demon girls.
• Kick adorable skeletons around.
• Solve puzzles as efficiently as possible.
• Or just skip puzzles in the menu.
• Try to not get murdered by demon girls.
• Get murdered by demon girls anyway.

The only other canon is the comic series by the creator (which I posted in order back when I started the community if you wanna read it).

The rest is literally just a mountain of fan-art.

Excellent posts btw 👌

It’s never stopped me from writing working stuff, or coming back to change it even if it’s all gone from my head.

I give functions and variables descriptive, at times sentence-lenght names, which makes shit real obvius for myself.

It also makes finding sections of code easier, because I just need to vaguely remember shit to ctrl+f my way to the right lines.

Still means that whenever other people see my code they go “wtf dude, you live like this”.

I’ll have to tidy up some of the spaghet I’ve added since last uploading a version, and document the new features, I guess.

As much as you can clean up spaghet that’s all in one monolithic file 😏

Asymmetric legwear always looks cool af for some reason.

Marcy choosing to study forbidden magic is probably another choice made more for “character development” than smarts.

Np

That is a top tier smol Flandre

Yes, but it’s behind what I use currently.

I’ve made some significant changes. The current version maintains a database of artists I like, and their various socials so they can be linked in each post, and even checks danbooru and pixiv for new art from them.

I also made it activity balance communities. Before, the random feature would just pick an image from a folder you give it, now it’ll try to pick something suitable for the community with the least posts queued.

The extra Reze is the cutest one tbh.

They’re buried somewhere in my non-organized wallpaper folder. My posting script will get to them when it gets to them, as it runs new and old images by me before posting.

But taking a scroll through the folder, this one was near the top.

Co-incidentally, Salmon88 wasn’t an artist I’d had my tool index yet, so now that’s done, too.

Of course! Many of the faithful attend to both.
