I make rpgs, programs, 3d art, and other weird things... My largest projects are the Vaarn Atlas, Exalted Order Of The Mystic Moose, and Penumbral Oasis. Find those, and my other games at: https://siofragames.itch.io/ Blog at: https://jacobmarkshasablog

Videogame footage. The style looks sort of like an old PS1 game. The scene is still looking out at a suburban USA street at night. A car is within view. One house has lights in the windows, all others are dark. There are a ton of streetlights that have dozens of moths fluttering about them. In the distance you can see a mountain with a forest fire coming across the peak.

First Tallboots sighted strange bubbles under the ice. Rapidly the ice broke apart and we sighted a beast of legends, a gigantic squid. A dreadful eye lolled about in a peculiar fashion before slowly sinking beneath the water in a mess of tentacles."
## BlueWhale 1 The men have spotted many whales spouting on our journey. They seem to be moving with us to the North. The mournful song of the whales is haunting to me. Though some of the men find it beautiful. [Man] has told me he is writing the songs down to bring back to Bastion. I will request Doctor Grungefall check on him. More blasted whales each day. That the council sent us without proper hunting equipment troubles me endlessly. Some days the sounds of endless sheets of breaking ice, and the dreadful wind, mixes with the songs of the whales to an odious degree. I can longer tell the three apart. [Man] has been looking somber and stops his work every time he hears them.
