as for the characters? they may be generic, but they aren't based on anything!
i just wanted to draw in a TDM style, a thing that i like quite a lot
TDM is basically a japanese mascot style kemono with an extremely large head, often very stumpy legs, and a body that's tapered enough that it's basically a triangle
jirachi and the lake trio from pokemon are other examples of TDM

it's the pico-8 philosophy for limiting my ambitions when i draw--because i wanna draw more! and i would love if the pressure to do that was minimized somewhat
drawing on something like this forces me to not overinvest my energy into each thing i draw--a bad habit i have
i wanna crack this open again because hooooly heck. this video (of shockingly good production quality) starts with a gigantic list of examples of people just...using that phrase
w-wha... this is extremely cool!

it's acid-techno, composed procedurally! it's even does little techno progressions if you listen to it for a bit~
it has some real "come and get it" energy in how i see the phrase used in ironic contexts all the time, but it's also impossible to pinpoint any examples of it because of its sheer popularity outside of them
except, in this case, the only people who use the phrase ironically seem to almost exclusively be the people it's parodying
it's like a little self-aware joke where the only people who realize it exists are the ones telling it
is there anything else like that?
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
i also probably like you
