Roots: Home Bound A ghostly farming game!

Thank you so much! I worked hard with our concept artist to develop a good silhouette.
He’s the mascot for the game, so we wanted to take good care of him. :heart:

You surpass my expectations again @polyowl3D !

The more this thread develops the more excited I am for the game to come out. Seeing the character design and hearing about the characters makes me so thrilled for this farming game. I will do my best in my social circles to hype up this game because seeing the development here it’s so amazing!

I eagerly await more updates and sneak peeks that you can provide! :star_struck:

More sketches of Emma’s sprite and some roughs. She’s one of my favorite characters so far.

I’m a total sucker for basebuilding and anything that I can help build part of the “world” so I’m stoked to hear its part of the plan :smiley: Also, huge kudos on the character art designs. They look lovely so far!
