✿ ——— about me ——— ✿

my name's eleanor (she/her), i'm an artist and animator also learning game development. my goal is to make things of such variety that i'm able to call myself a multimedia artist. or somethingmy art is usually part of some fictional story, but i like to make things about mental health or my experience with OCD and weird stuff like gender as well. i also make art just for fun, sometimes.i started animating at 6 years old when my father introduced me to macromedia flash mx. i used to spend most afternoons making short animations on my bulky laptop with a cheap wired mouse.today i use a 1st generation Wacom One and ToonBoom Harmony 25 Premium to make my animations, as well as DaVinci Resolve and some other software, all still powered by a small laptop. i also do a lot of traditional art with inks and fineliner. you can find my full software and equipment list here.i do my game development stuff in Godot and GDScript. i want to learn other programming languages as well and maybe start contributing to some open source projects later, but i haven't gotten around to that yet.i'm big into online data privacy and FOSS. i also really like roguelikes and platformers!

Miraclisset in the near future, a biotech company named miraclis discovered a cure for aging; a brain chip that artificially keeps cells from decaying. problem is, their strict end user license agreement and terms of use policy grant them the right to lower your life span if they catch you living your life in a way they don't like. the corporation built an authoritarian regime, using and abusing its power over people's lives to its financial benefit. one could assume miraclis has a mind of its own by this point.

Black and white pixel art depicting a MiRACLIS brand brain chip, appearing as a small rectangle with short spider-like legs protruding from the sides.
Black and white pixel art depicting the Great Deer, the deity of the Archwood forest, appearing as a slim, tall silhouette lacking any legs, with long, twig-like antlers protruding from its head.

Archwood forest / ANTLERSon a hike alone, Isaac Horvath stumbles into the Great Deer, a deity born of the Archwood forest. threatened with losing everything he lives for, Isaac agrees to grow the god's area of influence by spreading his symbols around, leading to the formation of a cult worshipping the Great Deer, and to the erosion of Isaac's sanity. anti-psychotics don't seem to work against the brainworms the deity gave Isaac, with him often being threatened to stop medicating himself, or else.

Awake, Machinethe world is fueled by a magical particle called milidja which has been known since the beginning of humanity to give all who possess it free will and a higher sense of consciousness. it is sometimes referred to as "the spark" of the soul. sometime in the modern world a technology company by the name of BICOMP created a conscious artificial intelligence, by running milidja particles throughout the circuitry of a processor. four years later, the first milidja powered robot, named blink, is powered on by a stray bird roaming the abandoned offices of BICOMP. he goes on to realize every human being has vanished off the face of the Earth. Blink sets off to discover what happened to humanity, while trying his best to survive in a world that's built against him, accompanied by nobody but his accidentally-sentient output log.

Echoes of the
Crimson Flower Fieldthe end of the world is here! instead of listening to the chaos and panic happening on the inside, two friends traveled to the countryside to witness the catastrophic event, only referred to as the "echoes", in a vast field of crimson lavender which is sensitive to sound.

nevermore nebulaa small space invader shoot-em-up i'm making mostly as practice. play as the Stingray, an alliance ship with the goal of clearing out the rebel movement. pave your way through the asteroid belt mining grounds, into the mechanical refraction point, all the way to the rebel headquarters, and fight against each area's unique challenges and bossfights on the way.

Black and white pixel art depicting Tower 9, appearing as a large fire tower. Under the ground the tower is built on, a huge eye can be seen staring up at the tower above.

Beneath The Crusttasked with searching for and processing signals from deep under the ground, you play as Dr. Thoensen, living in tower 9 located deep in the German woods. ping, find, process, and send signals back to the office using the equipment found in your living quarters, but be careful; there might be more underground than you initially thought.
