Hey High Krawl fan, I have something for you :>

I bought the official BTP guide book and there were the official artworks of these guys. Well the quality is not extraordinary but I had to share this !

(I will be able to draw Jado properly after all these years)

Krux! I tried to make his older self look more... like himself when young? They literally changed his jaw. I still kept his canon features (the string hair too) I only tweaked his colors a little so they don't hurt my eyes.

Krux: It would seem that you bitches have come to a standstill in Tarzan's forest. You have thirteen seconds before the planet fucking explodes, you Hot Topic Wannabe and you Orange Gumball son of a bitch! You have done nothing but destroy my life, I hope you both die.

Rallen: Hot Topic?!

Jado: No! My secret!

Master Krux ✌

Man I love body horror so much.

He was hard but fun to draw, I think I'm done with this series of drawings. It was great to work on it, it reminded me how much I love Spectrobes and I'm very nostalgic for this lisense.

I think that no new game will be released, but I thank the fandom for keeping it alive 💛✨

(Oh and I am open to suggestions for future drawings 👀)

Found some old sketches and doodles from 2020 lmaO. All but the first one are OCs

Oh so that’s what happened to Krux after Hands of Time. Been dying to know personally

I don't think it was ever outright stated (at least in the English version) that Maja was considering overthrowing Krux, but there is some stuff that can be read that way. Like that part where she tries to hold the safety of the Nanairo system hostage in order to recruit Rallen, and she claims that they "need the power of a Spectrobe Master", which doesn't make a lot of sense unless she's actually planning to overthrow Krux.

Thanks for sharing!! That makes me wonder if there's any differences between translations because what I played is the German version. Maybe they made her dialogue more direct? Or it's the same and my brain really simply assumed her intentions and remembered that instead of the actual dialogue

My recently finished project. I carved two Lord Krux masks from Spectrobes.

I'm really satisfied how they turned out.

They will leave my woodshop very soon.

Ramble about Spectrobes world building: Humanity's place in space.

It's kind of wild that this game had more to be discovered because I grew up and replayed it and was able to understand the premise more.

⏰️Spanish is my mother language so replaying it in English when I was older got me a little messed up with the existentialism, like how Nanairo is the birthplace of humanity yet the other solar systems you visit, the "children" of Nanairo, are abandoned or destroyed by krawl.

⭐️ The High Krawl also had some existential implications, they show us Krawl aren't mindless monsters or "demons" or whatever, they're just as alive as humans and Spectrobes, they even have more sapience than Spectrobes... It's all so bittersweet, because yes Rallen saved Nanairo, and Jeena recovered history, but we didn't get to deeply understand why Krawl do what they do, and the krawl war goes on and on, Jado doesn't die, Krux doesn't die... Etc etc space horror?

🌐 Btw my theory about the underlying message is that exploration for the sake of getting humanity's mark on everything, and colonizing other planets might as well end up biting us in the butt because of the pure audacity to assume "intelligent life" has to be sapient (and our especific cultural sapiece btw), we can easily destroy life because we want to rush into space.

🌪 Maybe Nanairo humans tried to be a type 3 civilization, krawl felt threatened by being displaced by humans, Spectrobes simply can buffer humans being killed by krawl because humans can bond and train animals- so Spectrobes aren't "angels" either, but it's scary to think Geos can destroy planets as well if a human just tells them to.

⏳️ There's some mythological and/or religious themes to Spectrobes too. They mention Fate, Krux talks about Kaio like it's god, some savior that comes around only when real bad shit will happen to humans... He, aspiring to be a savior as well? ends up on the opposite end, becoming more alike the creatures that were causing him desperation. Jeena frames this as Krux reaching for power and sacrificing his ideals and humanity in the process.

Rallen: What you're doing is illegal. Krux: I’m not taking advice from you. You pronounce the "g" in "lasagna".

Hungry boi.

And voilà Gronos, he's not my favorite but his design is cool, I like the black hole on his belly, such a good idea :D

Spectrobes cast in a 70/80s hard rock/heavy metal band. Think ACDC, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, ex.

Interesting one! My take on it concluded in an interesting lineup lol

•Nanairo’s most well-known rock/heavy metal band is a bit of a wild mix of members.

•Rallen is the main vocalist, no question here. His voice range is broader than you’d think.

•Rallen took a lot of practice to get good at singing. He’s not a natural, but determination and stubborness took him a long way.

•Besides singing, Rallen plays the guitar.

•Jeena also sings sometimes. She mainly plays the guitar. She’s naturally good at singing.

•Aldous plays the bass. He’s a cool unconventional grandpa who has a lot of music know-how.

• Salia plays the drums. Who did you expect?

•The band had been looking for a drummer for ages until Rallen and Jeena met Salia. She was a bit shy at first when she told them she plays the drums, because at that point she didn’t know what kind of music they play yet. Once Rallen told her it’s rock/heavy metal, her mood visibly perked up. 

•Jeena was skeptical of the new girl at first because she couldn’t read her well, but they eventually bonded over letting loose while playing their instruments.

•Krux has his own band with the Highkrawl. Internal relationships among them are a lot more on edge than within the good guy band.

Jado is Gay for Zerva and even more so bc he,, sees the resemblance to Krux they have sometimes and he just can NOT deal krbwkbw
