Quickie Update [16/12/25]

Hey folks! I hope you're ready for whatever festivities you celebrate! If you celebrate anything, that is.

Let's go over what I'm up to:

  • I'm nearing the end of Ruth's Patreon Deluxe, and I hope to have it finished in the next 2-3 days, earlier if I can manage it. It will have the usual "New Game +" feature, so here's hoping that doesn't cause any issues...

  • Usually, I work on a Rive animation for a little bit each day while doing the bigger animations. However, due to it being Christmas and doing family stuff here and there, I've not been able to start any Rive animation until the last few days. Once Ruth's animation is done, I'll focus entirely on the Rive animation until it is complete. My apologies!

  • After Ruth's animation is done, I'm going to decide if I want to do a longer animation project in Rive. If I do decide to do this, it will take me longer to complete, so be prepared for a longer delay between animations, but I'll post regular WIPs so people can follow the progress. Perhaps I'll do quickie games in my old software so you guys aren't completely starved of content while I plunge into Rive animation.

That's about it. I hope you're not too cold and getting to eat something tasty during these final weeks of 2025. Talk to you soon with a new animation!

The holidays are always a hectic time of year, so any kind of delay is completely understandable. Anyway, I definitely hope you do decide to do your next project in Rive. Ever since you started posting experiments in Rive I've been excited to see what a full-length project would look like using the software, and while I do understand it'll take longer I think the trade-off for even higher-quality animation and creativity is worth it, at least for me. Whatever you decide, I'll be looking forward to it.

A long term Rive project!? Then count me in.

Not long term, just a two part "Normal + Patreon Deluxe" animation like most of my projects. But if the reception is great then of course doing longer projects in Rive is fine with me...
