Hello everyone on Twitter! You might know me from working on projects like Smash Remix or the various MOTHER Projects I'm on. Decided it was finally time to make a twitter! Going to be posting my art here every so often so be sure to follow! Have a great day!

Just wanted to put my thoughts down because Pikmin is a very special to me, there is nothing quite else like it. Hopefully I'm wrong though and the next game will be a return to form like but seeing the direction is has started moving in just has me a bit concerned. (5/5)

Especially with the focus new merch has had on general stationary it feels like this is all being done to try and make the franchise and mainstream, and marketable as possible. Even if that means major deviation from what it the franchise is about. (4/5)

To go from all that to a clean minimalist branding, levels in perfectly clean houses and now generic CG humans in normal earth with extremely bright pastel colors just feels like the complete opposite of what came before. (3/5)

Pikmin's entire identity is built upon it being Ethereal, Bizarre, moody and kinda grungy. They are games about being alone on a distant planet. They are about the alien beauty of nature and also the unknown. (2/5)

Was waiting for official confirmation to say anything but I'm very disappointed that "Close to You" is Pikmin. Was already worried for the direction after 4's squeaky clean presentation, 1+2's script censorship, and minimalist rebranding. This only cemented it further 🧵(1/5)

Have some more thoughts about this interview that I may say later but this one stood out the most as incredibly frustrating to see from a general artistic standpoint.

It obviously makes no sense for the "Pauline" in Bananza to be a Young Pauline, especially when introducing the Grandma who is seemingly supposed to be "Lady" from the arcade game. The fact that the devs had internal ideas but can't say anything about them is ridiculous.

It majorly aggravates me when answers to stuff like this is "Use your imagination". It bad writing. Feels like they are afraid of changing the status quo for something like introducing new family members for established characters and "imagine what it means" is their solution.

The Japanese website for DK Bananza has showed that characters that weren't in the main game may appear as statues you can earn in game events like Enguarde! He has been slightly redesigned since his last appearance in Barrel Blast, with having eyelids like in DK64.

Never realized how many people actually still like stock Yoshi lol. Guess that's what happens when most of your time talking are within video game-centric art communities lol I still stand by my point though! haha

@ima_1966 Imamura-san, if you feel comfortable answering, was this your work? Slippy Toad is there but this seems to be artwork made for Mario 3 even though Star Fox didn't come out for another 5 years? Sorry to bother, thank you for your time. 🙇‍♂️ (添付画像の機械翻訳)

The new Yoshi game kinda only makes me more grumpy about the DK redesign. The fact that he got a redesign no one asked for and Yoshi is stuck with a design people have been begging to get rid off. Especially after Wonder the insistence on using the old stock model is bizzare.

So we have a better look at Bark in Sonic Blitz now and... This might literally be the worst character model I have ever seen in a sonic game. Genuinely what happened here. This doesn't even remotely look like the same character.

My ENDLESS FANTASIA @Kickstarter campaign is now LIVE! To kick things off with a bang, here's an exciting new reveal -- we tapped the legendary PATRICK SPAZIANTE to make an exclusive poster for us! Go support the project and secure yours NOW! https://t.co/zRwu42QC1y

BTW also regarding this collab The car Pac-Man has in crosswords is retro-stylized Red Car that he is often seen with in stuff like promotional art and Ridge Racer. More specifically the Ridge Racer car as it also has the Pac-Man Symbol on the Wheels! Neat reference tbh

100% fully called this happening lol. Looks neat enough I guess. Pac-Man being able to play through Gens Green Hill is really funny haha.

I cannot express how happy I am about everything about the new kirby. but especially DEDEDE LOOKS PERFECT YAY!!!!!!! MY GOAT RETURNS!!!!

Immediately could tell by the quality wanted to go make sure and I was correct. This amazing piece of art was done by @camreigle. An amazing artist who has done many fantastic pieces of Rare related fan art over the years, (and also a certain piece for a red guy!)

3D Model John Egbert from Homestuck trying to be as accurate as possible to the comic sprite. Very proud of how it came out! #Homestuck #MSPA 🏠🥚
