Hello! I rarely post two announcements in a row, but I think this time its necessary! First of all, thank you for the warm welcome you gave our new Tinker! The upcoming OPT is getting a major artistic overhaul, and its great to see that youre enjoying the work were doing.

BUT and this is why Im making todays post a lot of people think our new Tinker is just an AI-generated image. I hesitated at first about whether I should respond, but Id rather build a relationship based on trust with you, and (even if it breaks the magic a bit) show you the real work that goes into creating such polished characters

(Yes, I know the naked characters matter too xD but color sets the mood and the overall harmony.) Its our job to make sure everything feels just right so that you never even notice it!

Yep, our files are massive but dont worry, weve got good hard drives too, ahah! To wrap things up, I think its fair to say we really care about what we create. Were genuinely trying to deliver a high level of visual quality for the upcoming OPT and were giving it everything weve got to get there.

( That said, Im telling you now: Im not doing this full presentation for every single character! Ahah )

But honestly, in a time where more and more 2D games (And especially for NSFW games) just generate a random AI-made character and call it a day, we felt it was important to show you how we do things, properly.

Thats it! Thanks a lot, and have a great day! Bye ~
