What images are in the game?

Hello! This devblog might not be for everyone, but I wanted to do a quick break down of what visual aspects will be in the game! As an audio game, almost everything will be audio, but having just a blank screen feels strange! So there will be a few visual elements, and I wanted to go into all of them!

First, there are actually pictures on my twitter that will be present in the game! These are sketches done by a wonderful artist of what TierraMon might look like.

The main picture on the Twitter is of a very special TierraMon. It is vaguely humanoid, with a central longer stone that has limbs made from shattered bits of stone that are all connected with string like bits of magic as it walks slowly. In the central stone, there is a hole near the top where a single glowing orb sits. First instinct is to think it's a large central eye similar to a cyclops, but TierraMon have never shown a need for any normal organs to see and hear around them. It is also a picture of one of the few Unique TierraMon, as far of the people of Tierra know, there is exactly one of this creature.

The other images are of Smaller Tierramon. These are all fragmented as well, creatures made of sharp chunks of stone that are bound together by magic, and have spiked crystals sticking from them. 

One is much like a spider but with four legs, but with crystalline spikes protruding out of their body and tops of their legs.

Another is down on all four with the a stone face much like a boar, but with a stone body more like a gorilla that has hands that it moves on. 

Then we have one that is only of three pieces, two legs attached with thick strands of magic to a central misshapen head piece looks like it will move very strangely. On one side the leg is mostly of stone, with only a tiny piece of stringy magic connecting it to the head, while the other leg has only a bit of foot made of stone, while strands of sinewy magic make up the rest of the leg. All while the head looks almost like a grinning skull made of stone with shards of stone going out of the top.

The final TierraMon in the picture is of a creature on four legs, with the legs all meeting near the center of the body, that is like a stone needle forcing forward. It looks like it would be rather unpleasant if it were to run straight forward and slam into something.

Images like these will be throughout the game, but will always be accompanied by your helpful TierraGuide explaining them, and giving you information on their strengths and weaknesses. Not every TierraMon will have pictures, but every TierraMon will have a description. 

Then there will also be an image of a "Cheat sheet" up at all times. Since I want to minimize menus, hotkeys control most of the game. As such, reference will always be up.

But it wouldn't be very fair if there is a cheat sheet only available as images, so included in a game will also be a .txt document that has quick reference of all hot keys, as well as a tutorial that can be accessed at any time in case someone forgets their commands where your TierraGuide can go over mechanics again and controls at any time.

With this my hope is that everyone feels like they can enjoy the game to its fullest! 

Let me know if you have any suggestions, thank you for reading!
