What do you use to get this minimalist 8 bit art and lettering?
>>
>>48663891
I use paint.net, zoom in to about 800% (for detail work) while having anti-aliasing turned off, move/resize set to nearest-neighbor instead of bilinear, and the brush settings set to 100% hardness with anti-aliasing turned off on both stroke and pressure sensitivity.

The text itself is called 'Pixel Art' and was found with just a google search using 'pixel art text file' which was then added to my fonts folder.

As for the minimalist style that's just done with practice. Over on /ic/ there's a pixel art thread which would be able to help you on managing the different pixel art styles altogether.

Bo is now no longer an Adept, and has become a Bruiser.

While Adepts are mobile and well suited to a variety of roles, the Bruiser is there to blitz down the opposition and be a hard threat to deal with. Being well-suited to melee, some take up the Arcum to make use of their strength in the form of projectiles. Some Bruisers are rumored to forgo all weapons and instead commit to the improvement of the self.

Only one such Bruiser has been rumored to achieve the final step in self-improvement, but such knowledge has been lost to the ages before the cataclysm.

The Shambler elementa finds the entire tour rather strange, given the house is made out of wood yet no leaves are to be seen. "I think this place needs a bit of tidying up, and some color too." She'll probably give Bevy a headache if left alone unchecked.

Pretty sure the Forge inventory remains the same, but pic related anyway.

It's a normal Scythe! They're bigger than a Sickle, and the added length to the shaft allows them to Cleave through gathering points. There's a rumor you can cut down whole trees with one of these. That's just a rumor though. Or is it?

Doof bakes the Shoq into a tart. It's a Shoq Tart! Super sour, super sweet, maximum tart.

Poptartz offers one of his wares in repayment of the meal!

Did I forget anything? Anyone want to stash items or try out a recipe? Anything anyone wants to do needs to be done before Elaine comes back.

Oh and as for Ranger training, it's a PCA to tag along with Elaine on her recon. That's how you get training. Results varry.

Yes! Currently the stacks won't decrease when turns aren't used, but I am tempted to have the maximum number of Focus stacks held be no greater than the character's Affinity.
