Pikmin - Blog Posts
Random fact 3
In pikmin the burrowing snagrets in the forest of hope are a pain to get to and fight, there isn't a easy way fight them, but there is a easy way to bring the pellets and the part back for casual players, use blues instead of reds and yellows to fight and carry back the spoils, the blues will go back through the water instead of the usual long way.
A list of glitches I have found in the wii versions of pikmin one and two.
The pikmin games are nostalgic for me and I have stumbled to glitches over years of playthroughs, a lot of which in the wii versions, like weird clipping glitches relating to the pikmin models, it perhaps common knowledge about the branches in the game but it's also happens with large enemy types like bulborbs bulbears and yellow wollywog, something about the models isn't working correctly causing pikmin to clip through the floor, this causes greater losses in fights with mentioned enemies,(especially with swarm tactics) this did not existed in the GameCube version. A other glitch I ran in to is more funny then troubles, it happen with the part Libra, normally with parts from high ledges they just land on the ground when the pikmin start carrying, but with the said part in question in one session of the game, the part went flying when it hit the ground, and I say flying it went straight up offscreen, and then conveniently landed right next to the red pikmin, they proceeded the carry it back to base, I don't know what caused it to go straight up, but it was funny when it happened.in pikmin2 there is a glitch that happens when you push one captain into red/purple drop and then walk into same drop to collect two sprays at once, but have you heard of someone throwing a pikmin to a other dimension on accident, like what happen with Libra I don't know what happened, I was going in to collect a treasure that gives you a defensive boost, I threw a yellow pikmin and they went straight up or down I don't know, maybe has do with where I was standing on the terrain or I was too close to the boss that was defeated, all I know is Louis (who I was playing as) has one mighty arm apparently, I had to reset because i doing a zero loss playthrough. In the same playthrough I had a puffy blowhog got stuck in a narrow hallway in the ground during one of the later caves, how stuck I can walk up to it and attack with the captains instead of throwing pikmin like normal, so I defeated it with a captain instead because it's not often an flying enemy is grounded like that. And that's all the glitches I can think of during my time playing, most likely in the future playthroughs i encounter more weird glitches, I might bring up more glitches in games I have played.PS to whoever read through this I apologize for the text wall and possible weird grammar.
July 21, 2023. the day of the most holiest of trinities. the day of the Barbenheikmin.
barbie and oppenheimer and pikmin on the same day yeahah lesgo babyyy (no spoilers for any of these things in the comments and reblogs plz)
Don’t you think them being constantly chased by monstrosities who consume there friends without mercy wouldn’t imbue them with anger and spite strong enough to kill gods?
Also the pikmin looks like a baked bean i love it
brother you are the size of ant
I want to be inside of an onion, it seems very comfortable
Some of my favorite GameCube guys!
maggyfall answered: YOur favorite character from your favorite anime and or game.
I've played a lot of games, but Pikmin will always hold a special place in my heart.
Yonny is so silly, go commit your funky lil experiments
assorted pikmin art (i fucking love these beasts so much)
purple's design is based on beetroots, adopting their leaf shape and having its body textured like one
white's leaf design is based on caladium plants, with pink larkspurs replacing them when bloomed
I initially wanted to draw their bodies as weirdly shaped roots like actual mandrakes have, but i'll save the idea for later
Nintendo may act fast, but bootleggers act faster. Gaze upon the glory of bootleg oatchi and moss
Love it #

Dandori Downpour - A Pikmin 4 Dating Sim - May 11th Development Blog
Welcome to the second installment of the Pikmin 4 Dating Sim development blog! A weekly "news letter" where I will discuss my progress on the dating simulator.
I asked, you voted! The official name of the project will become Dandori Downpour! Thank you to all who voted!
Previous Development Blog Character Creator Showcase
Dandori Downpour was my first choice too but I thought the alliteration was stupid (okay it kind of is but this is all in good fun, right?)
--------------
What has been done this week?
Two backgrounds
More Shepherd Sprites
Started Collin's Rough Draft
Not as much as I'd like to have done this week but backgrounds are a lot of meat and potatoes! Work is also picking up and I'll be out on a trip next weekend too so there may not be a development update next Sunday!
--------------
Release info
You may be wondering how exactly I plan on releasing this? And to answer that, I'm not entirely sure yet!
It'd be cool if this could work exclusively on itch.io with no download but I'm unsure how that all works! Rest assured, a download will always be available for it.
Unfortunately, this game will not have mobile support. I'm sorry!
Another thing about releasing, it is highly likely that I will release the routes in waves, starting with Shepherd, Collin, and Russ in the first wave. After them, I will release Dingo, Yonny, and Bernard either all together in a second wave or one at a time.
The good news is that Dingo, Yonny, and Bernard's development time will be significantly shorter as a majority of their sprites and backgrounds will be drawn by the time the first three routes are out. Predicted Release?
This is not set in stone but I am hoping for the first three routes to release around the end of August.
--------------
POLL TIME!
And if you'd like, comment below as to why! I'd LOVE to know!

Anywho, thanks for reading this weeks newsletter! Stay curious!~

Pikmin 4 Dating Sim - May 4th Development Blog
Welcome to the first installment of the Pikmin 4 Dating Sim development blog! A weekly "news letter" where I will discuss my progress on the dating simulator. I thought instead of doing a discord server, this would probably be the best course of action. If we get more buzz around the project, perhaps a discord server still can be made.
--------------
What is the Pikmin 4 dating simulator? The Pikmin 4 dating simulator (working title) is a dating simulator where you create a character and go on a little narrative story path with members of the Rescue Corps!
It takes place late into your mission on PNF-404, a multiple day storm forces the Rescue Corps to halt rescue efforts and take shelter in the S.S. Shepherd.
During this time, you decide to get to know your crew members, each having their own arch and story!
Planned routes:
Captain Erma Shepherd
Collin
Russ
Dingo
Yonny
Bernard
All around, it will be a light-hearted playable dating sim made in Ren'Py!
--------------
What has been done this week? (Well, a bit over a week)
Shepherd's rough draft
Russ' rough draft
2 backgrounds
Most of Russ' sprites
Started Shepherd's Sprites
Started writing Introduction
UI text box shift when custom character is on screen
-------------- Please keep in mind, I am one person <3 I'm working as fast as I can while also working a job! Feel free to DM me anything <3 either on here or @andrabeets on discord --------------
So, obviously, the official name won't be "Pikmin 4 dating sim" or "Rescue Corps dating sim" I have a few ideas for a name but I thought I'd let you guys vote!
The winner doesn't guarantee the name of the project. I just know I'd like it to be something to do with dandori.
-------------- Thank you for reading! Hope to have more updates for you next week! Stay curious~

SHES SO BEAUTIFFUUUULLL EEEE <333
Io!
I was a little curious about her body type... hmm, like, yeah I think she's fit; she's a hard worker, opting to do much of the heavy lifting for her fellow officers and all. Hooowever, I don't think of her as "slim" by any means! Io wears her weight comfortably as to say, "I pack a punch!", as she's adamant on a strong appearance. She's got a tummy and isn't afraid of it! Her soft features hide her arms...so, she likes to flex and show off!
Sure, the Captain would outdo her - but, it's all good fun to Io 💙

God Bless!
Am I losing my mind?? Is this referring to Santi or someone else??
I’m very curious…what are Cherie’s and Shepherd’s love languages with each other? 👀 You’ve got me invested in Cherpherd and I ain’t complaining
Omg THANK YOU FOR THE ASK hEHHEEDAWJDAK *cracks knuckles*
Erma's love language
Erma always gives Cherie words of affirmation after missions, which makes Cherie smile and blush for days.
Erma leaves reminder notes on Cherie's dresser and folds her uniform for her. "Don't forget to eat breakfast."
When Cherie is feeling particularly down and they're in bed, Erma holds her close, rubbing circles on Cherie's back soothingly, occasionally giving her a forehead kiss.
Cherie's love language
On days Erma is stuck in her office doing paper work, Cherie always has a hot meal to bring to her. The more stressed Erma is, the more "comfort food" the food is.
Cherie will come back after the argument and talk things out rationally, often sitting next to Erma and putting a hand on her back. And she's not afraid to say sorry if she truly messed up!
Lots of physical attention, Cherie is a hugger, Erma is much more sparing, only for when the situation calls for it. Cherie loves to hug Erma from behind as a surprise greeting.
I definitely want to write more of these!! THEY'RE SO CUTE, YOUR HONOR <333
really rough sketch I have work in 15 minutes cryyyy
taps on the mic.... GETS RLLY CLOSE TO IT .. smacks my lips
I'd love to know more about Cherie and her story! Liike, ooh, how did she end up working for the Rescue Corps? :D
HII THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ASK <33 Cherie comes from Karut (omg shocker) where she was born and raised on a farm! She was pretty sheltered growing up as the area she lived in was rural. However, she had a knack for adventure, often venturing in places she shouldn't be, such as caves and tall plants. She often threw herself at danger even though her mom was incredibly against this.
She has an older brother too! (I don't have a design for him yet </3) he sometimes goes with Cherie on her various adventures but does not have the guts like she does.
One day, in her teenage years, a neighborhood kid went into the caves and got stuck in a crawlspace. The Rescue Corps were called but by the time they got there, Cherie was already out with the child, comforting him.
The Rescue Corps thought she had done a prank call on them but no, she just got to it first! Cherie was incredibly curious about the Rescue Corps but her parents wanted her to focus on the family farm. In the first few years in her adulthood, she focused on helping out with the farm but she grew more and more curious. Something clicked in her that fateful day, "I could go on adventures to other planets and save more people?!"
It was her true passion, she wanted to get out of this monotonous grind on Karut. With much time, she was able to get her parents to warm up to the idea of her leaving the farm life. At the age of 24, she enlisted and went through boot camp and training. A year later, she's the new rookie at 25!
Her general personality is timid, courageous, noble, hot tempered, naive, and loyal.
