little demon match (video game manual)

Another project I've been working on over the summer on and off is a manual for a video game that doesn't exist. As my pixel-covered decor no doubt suggests, I'm a video game kid, and as such my main toilet readings through my youth were video game manuals. I decided I'd use some of the characters I left on the backburner in high school to make my own video game manual for a game called Little Demon Match; this covers the bases of story, characters, illustration, graphic design, writing, and all kinds of other fun stuff. There's still lots to be done with this thing, but here's a few completed pages. What I'd LOVE to do is print up an actual Game Boy Color-sized legit copy of this manual when it's done, but first I have to finish it then I have to find out what it actually takes to build a manual. Baby steps, friends.

Cover page. Still need to come up with a better name for the system this game's gonna come out on.

The first of three character pages.

A page discussing the combat system. 

First page of three covering the story to this game. Like any good old-school game it's silly and makes little to no sense.

so yeah. if you've noticed it's been a while since I updated. so there's gonna be a butt-ton of stuff flowing in here today, of all different varieties. this post I'll share with you the doodles I did for HuskyStarcraft's forum, Nerdyshore.com (basically Husky is a commentator for the video game Starcraft who I watch pretty religiously, despite the fact that I'm not even good at Starcraft), and the stuff he says while casting is often SO LULZY that I must draw it. kinda wanna do more at some point but here's what I've done thus far (for Starcraft outsiders... you probably shouldn't even try to "get" the "jokes")

The Terrans have a unit called the Marauder which looks a bit like a football player.

Husky's beloved car was recently broken into, so he should probably invest in some static defense.

Husky has a habit of calling the Protoss Fleet Beacon a "Fleet Bacon." which to me sounds like a delicious breakfast chain.

the miniature icon of the Zerg Mutalisk totally looks like a T-Rex. go look.

Zerg player Spanishiwa spares no expense to ensure the safety of his Drones!

taking unit quotes out of context is an important part of life

Overlords in ZvZ games are downright chummy, passing by each other or even hanging out together. how adorable.

Husky's most beloved "character," Pylo the Pylon who was tragically cut down in his prime. This is probably my most well-known drawing... ever so far, haha. Husky made it his profile pic and thus far it has garnered 1,231 "likes" on his Facebook page. hm.

when Queens hog ramps to block incoming enemy scouts, what else are they supposed to do besides knit sweaters for their children?
