The Creation of the World

NOT FOR REPOSTING ON TIKTOK!

“The closer our hands get, the more unreachable their touch seems.”

About a month ago, while scrolling through Pinterest, I came across a picture that inspired me to create something similar to Michelangelo’s “The Creation of Adam,” and so, together with my friend u/ghost3633, we made this artwork.

After making my second piece featuring TWM, I started wondering what exactly the Machine is doing now. Technically speaking, the Author tamed the TWM, and all that remains of him is a memory recorded in diaries that the World Machine can’t read (or can it?). On top of that, after Solstice, all that remained of him were the writings in George’s library, which, essentially, are probably just a copied library from his world.

And if you think about it even further... Just how much desperation and awareness of inevitable death must have been poured into the World Machine. Cedric said that at the BEGINNING of the experiments, the Author used his own brain, but it seems pretty obvious that he didn’t conduct those experiments alone. It was said that “there were those who did not stop fighting, one of them was my father,” which makes me think that there were others inside the World Machine as well, meaning the amount of despair being poured into the Entity was multiplied over and over again.

By the way, Rue could very well be one of those “others.” We know very little about her origins, except that she was a real person unlike the others. Most likely just some girl who helped the Author with the experiments. Maybe even his WIFE))))))

I mean, what’s stopping one of the World Machine’s testers from choosing a different avatar? I would’ve done the same.

Aaaaaand, I finished the drawing in less than a week!

NOT FOR REPOSTING TO TIKTOK FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S ACCOUNTS!!

For the past week, I had an assignment from a friend to draw Watcher in the rain. Considering that the only thing I could think about a week ago was "how the hell am I gonna get home from school" because I didn't have an umbrella (it was rainy here), I thought, "Hmm, it would be cool to draw Watcher with an umbrella in perspective, just so I could absolutely lose my shit over how difficult it is."

And I did it... I hope it looks good, and that the perspective doesn't look weird. Oh, and I forgot the bow T°T

By the way, I might turn this piece into pixel art, but only after I finish the bigger artwork with my friend.

I already have a sketch for another piece, by the way, but... I don't really like it that much. Maybe I'll fix it as I go while drawing.

I'm going to make a texture pack.

I decided to make a texture pack where Niko doesn't have their hat, with an option where they'll have cat ears, or just their hair (at least, that's what I'm thinking about so far).

I don't really have anyone to show the sprite to for feedback, so I'm posting it here instead. What do you think? Should I change anything? Should I add something? Maybe make some other minor changes to the textures?

It's a little difficult to work in such a minimalist style. I usually use waaay more colors, but I want to keep the minimalist look.

I'm looking forward to ratings, edits, suggestions, and criticism!

SOOOOO BORING (not for repost)

There's absolutely nothing to do at college — I've written all my notes, so I sat down to draw.

I had no ideas at all, so I asked my chat for some. They asked me to draw Niko looking at the sun at sunset... in black and white......... Meeeeh....

After a long time of being persuaded, they covered me in band-aids...

Niko was really worried about my hands, so today, all evening, my hands were carefully being taken care of, decorated with all sorts of drawings, while we played around with band-aids and my hands.

He looks so pleased))) I won't tell him just yet that I don't need that many band-aids (I don't have that many cuts T-T)

Happy September 1st, good luck with the new school year to all students and teachers!!

PLAYER!! WE HAVE TO HELP SOMEHOW!

After a week and one sliced finger, I finally finished working on this super weird art piece.

At some point, while scrolling through my feed, I came across a video by user syntax_malfunction on TikTok. Somehow, in that video, Kris from Deltarune, Lacey from Paper Lily, and Niko from OneShot were fighting a titan. It was so absurd that I absolutely had to draw it, no matter the cost.

This also pushed me to play Paper Lily — a free first chapter of a game with REALLY beautiful graphics and an immersive atmosphere. It's mostly a puzzle-solving game, and that's what I loved about it. I recommend it to everyone (except hardcore action fans).

Next on my list is finishing Deltarune and playing through Hello Charlotte — I'm still on the first episode. There might be some Deltarune, Charlotte, and OneShot stuff coming soon.

A small visualization of the OST from Onetale

Honestly... I didn't plan on doing anything today, but... to post the video on TikTok, I needed a track from Onetale (since the comic is based on it, after all). I really liked one track from there, but I couldn't find it anywhere except publicly available on Game Jolt. I downloaded it and started thinking about how to put it on TikTok. I couldn't come up with anything better than spending several hours messing around with visualization, light editing, timing, and searching for sprites inside the game.

And now I think I won't regret posting this on Reddit, or maybe even YouTube, because this is one of my favorite tracks that I want in my YouTube Music playlist.

OST author: snuffow

Niko sprite author (overall spriter in the OneTale dev team): DiscountDry

MY FIRST MINI COMIC!!!

God forbid TikTok user sillyniko2 reposts my work again.

A while ago I started playing OneShot mods and really got into them. I saw good mods, great mods, decent ones — but one stood out: OneTale (though I actually preferred UnderShot). I was a huge Undertale fan for a long time, and experiencing it from Niko's perspective was a real treat... But I did everything there was to do — which meant genocide... Twice (why didn't Flowey just tear me limb from limb T-T). That playthrough inspired me a ton, so I made a little sketch.

I'd post this comic in the OneTale community... But there's only a few people there... And all of them are the creators.

Although... I could post it there so they'd notice me and take me on as a spriter? :3

I'd like to practice sprite work somewhere, since I have my own ideas for the future, and for that it'd be good to have some experience.

As for the plot of this sketch... There isn't really a set plot? Okay, it takes place during the genocide ending, when Niko talks to the player for the last time. In that moment, Niko ends up in the wheat fields of their village — even though they've said they can't go home, and never will, knowing the player is in control. They see their mom but are too scared to even approach her, because the player could just make them kill her if they felt like it. But maybe this was the player's final gift — letting them come home. Or maybe it's just a deathbed hallucination.

I wanted to do a lot more — originally, Niko from OneTale was supposed to meet Niko from UnderShot, both at the end of their genocide routes. I just really liked the contrast between how those mods handle genocide (and not just that). Because while one Niko had no contact with their player and had time to realize what they were doing, the UnderShot Niko was in constant contact with a player who kept gaslighting them (that's my interpretation — the main reason I liked UnderShot more was that Niko at least got to talk to the player there).

And what's funniest (yeah, real funny, haha) — that person who's been copying videos recently just straight-up reposted my latest animation, made by me and my friend, without even cropping out my watermark, but completely ignoring my existence.

Anyway...

Gotta be happy, no need to stress!!

The other day I made a simple Niko animation and wanted to post it, but I didn't know how to present it — because just posting it dry without any effects is too boring for me. I asked my friend (their TikTok is korzhicmaps_tiktok) to help me with the animation, then I added some sound effects and voilà!! Turned out pretty cute, I think :3

I didn't really want to make anything complicated, and originally it was supposed to be Alula, along with other silly OneShot characters, but I... can't just draw other characters on the fly like that... Although one of my OCs looks a lot like Cedric, so that got me thinking... I'd like to make a few sketches of the Author's son in the future.

Btw... For once I actually thought to add watermarks, and I really like them, but in this animation I couldn't think of a better place for them... Than in the inconspicuous beginning :D

Old sketchbook drawings from the past year.

Recently, since I’ll have to go back to school again soon, I dug out my sketchbook that I’d been actively (not really) filling whenever I finished taking notes and had nothing else to do.

There isn’t actually that much OneShot stuff in here, but hey, why not post it anyway? And yeah, there are also some of my original characters that nobody gives a shit about, but they look pretty cool, so whatever.

I figured this could also be a chance to see whether my art skills have improved over the six months I spent doing basically nothing, or if I’m still the same silly little self-taught student I was before :3

(Sorry, my sister thought some of these were coloring pages, and for some of them, even I thought they were coloring pages.)

BEHOLD, my best art piece so far!!

I've been turning my sketch into this piece for a while now, and finally, after stuffing myself with blueberry buns (which I'm severely allergic to), I finished it!

In this image, you can see the World Machine trying to process and cope with an existential crisis and depression after Niko's departure. The Machine realized that it has emotions, but the only one it could show them to is gone, and will never return.

(Halfway through, I decided to add a reference to the Frostbite mod)

I'll also attach screenshots from the process, and from before I learned about layers in Aseprite.

I confess, I used screenshots from websites, KhaMimo's TikTok profile (by the way, I still don't know if I should or even need to tag KhaMimo in this case?), and I cropped out Prototype in the final render, but you'll forgive me for that, right???????

u/DaenHaxyu — 2 months ago

I'd love to know what you think of the World Machine as a character, and what you imagine it does after Niko is gone?

>!Right now I'm drawing a piece dedicated to the Entity — where she misses Niko just as much as the players do, if not more. I've seen a few ideas about what could happen after the Solstice ending. For example, the fanfic Lost Clover, where Rue, Cedric, and Prototype visit the World Machine and try to grow closer as a family. I've also seen ideas where the Machine just goes into some kind of sleep mode, only occasionally checking on the world. Or the idea where the Author's children and the World Machine work together to improve the world. And... I realize I haven't really seen that many ideas, and I'm kind of lacking inspiration for the art...!<

>!And speaking of which — this reminds me of Niko's thoughts about taming the Entity. I always felt like she was already tamed by the Author. But in the game (maybe it's just in the Russian translation), all the characters point out that it was Niko who tamed her — through their constant belief in this world. (Come on, isn't taming supposed to be about personal connection and spending a long time with someone?)!<

I couldn't be bothered to make something new, so here's just a redraw.

Honestly, I think Reddit has way more potential than TikTok, because, GOD, it's so refreshing that there aren't any of those generic copy-paste commenters here. You can actually have a real discussion and hear what others think.

I was gonna upload all three pieces at once, butttt..... I got a bit lazy and didn't finish the other two.

DEALS SO GOOD I'LL [going eat pancakes!!!]

Something you need, player???

You already know that [YOUR FAVORITE LITTLE BUDDY] is always here just for [CUSTOMER NUMBER ONE]!

The best [50% OFF DEALS], the best [TOP-QUALITY GOODS], and ALL for YOU — just ask!!!

While writing this, I got so into character that I actually started thinking about an Ask blog based on this Niko, haha.

Anyway, this is just some art based on an idea from a Reddit user, in celebration of me finally learning how to draw!!!

What happens to Niko when he chooses to "return the sun"?

>!Recently, I was introducing my friends to One Shot once again, and somehow it happened that during the choice of “save the world or save Niko,” which my friends hesitated over for at least half an hour, One of them stood out.Let's call her Gosha for now.(I don't know why Gosha, it will just be Gosha). She is going through her first session, and when choosing, she waited 6 seconds to make a choice because she did not understand how to click on the selected option.AND AFTER THAT I STARTED BEATBOXING WITHOUT THINKING ONCE OR TAKING SERIOUSLY EITHER THE CHOICE OR THE PLOT AAAAAAA. I'm still triggered by this situation. Okay, getting back to the main idea, Gosha once asked me, "But I did well, Niko got home and everything is great!" To which I simply repeated the choice and why it should be morally difficult And then he added that “most likely Niko died,” hoping to at least AT LEAST LITTLE press on the pity. I caused dissonance and hate towards Nightmargin (I have no idea HOW she started blaming the developer for her inattention and igistic attitude towards the plot) At the same time, I seriously thought about what exactly happened to Niko after he put the sun in the tower.!<

>!MY OPTIONS:!<

  1. >!Niko really did die, it's unlikely, but there are some confirmations. It is based on the fact that at the moment when Niko set the sun, he was saturated with radiation, which is not very good for the human body. Or, somehow, Niko left the tower alive and unharmed, relying on the fact that “the world was not created to harm Niko” (which, in my opinion, does not cancel out the previous outcome of events, After all, many things in our world are not created to harm us, and some created by us, on the contrary, try to protect us from themselves as much as possible.) In this case, we do not forget that the state of the entity is extremely bad, and the path of the solstice, although it did not show us, made it clear that the entity may not contain squares, As a result, they may harm Niko, which will cause "irreparable damage"And given their colossal numbers and the lack of taming of the world machine, it seems to be only a matter of time. Also, what confirms this theory in my eyes is that Niko NEVER said anything about what happened after he put the sun. Yes, of course, I understand that this is done to provide variety in choice and to simplify the creation of dialogue scenes, with the least number of forks But this does not change the fact that Niko did not say anything about what happened after (even if we really wanted to know).!<
  2. >!Niko was blinded by close contact with the sun at the moment of its "activation" but remained alive in the world until its final death, perhaps even prompting the entity to begin to correct itself AT LEAST SOMEWHAT. He lives with the Kip or George, enjoying life at least somehow, just in ignorance of the end of the world. Honestly, I'm almost certain that these two will hide the state of the world in which they live from the Messiah until the very end. Even if the room they are in is filled with squares, they will still say things like, "What are you, my dear? You saved the world, and now everything is fine. There are no squares left for a long time. Maybe it's just auditory hallucinations?". Maybe at some point one of the visitors will let it slip...!<
  3. >!HOORAY, finally some positivity. Niko lives in the world he was left in, unharmed, but aware that the squares haven't gone anywhere, and simply joins the burden of the local inhabitants. And the reason he doesn't say anything about what happened after the regular session is because he can't remember what happened after the moment he focused on. I really don't know how else this can be explained, even if it sounds stupid, but still.Or maybe Niko doesn't say it on purpose, AAAAA??? We did abandon the cutie after all, Maybe he was offended by us, or rather, that's the version from that run. In any case, I look forward to your opinion on this matter.!<

What do you think exactly happened after Niko set the sun?

I accidentally broke the game ._.

While searching for additional content in One Shot, I found some mod. This is not my first time downloading mods, and all this time I had a save file of accidentally launched "Niko's Memories" that I was too lazy to play.For all mods this was okay, for example Frostybe didn't complain and launched the game without any problems.Metamorphosis there too.Tarion was indignant and said something like, "Bro, you can erase the saves, but I would advise you to just reset everything and go straight to the mod, okay?". Apparently so "Equinox" It's special somehow, and after its removal (due to the fact that I simply didn't understand why I needed a penguin in every location, and some "funny" things as I progressed through the same story.)At the moment with the meeting with Cedric (which was already strange, because throughout the entire mod I was in memories)When I deleted the mod, for some reason I was left in the same location in the face of the world machine.All dialogues, sounds, and sprites use the model of the Entity, not Niko, as it should have been.

It might seem like I'm complaining or something, but damn, this is awesome, and I wanted to share it.Speaking of which, do you have any ideas how this could have happened? If all the solstice artifacts were disabled during "Niko's memories"?Although I could be wrong... SUDDENLY it turns out that this is only in World Machine Edition. SUDDENLY I'm a loser and I couldn't figure out how to get them back, and the solstice can be replayed in memories.Don't know. Anyway, I wanted to share

I made a world machine in place of Zane from Ninjago pilot season!

I don't know, I just wanted to draw them because they look a bit similar.

(Well, well, well, a robot, a man, and a machine that stimulates the whole world, how similar they are, hehe)))
