Poison powerup Spyro plush! 🔥

To hold his pose, he has wires throughout his legs, wings, and tail. He also has some glowing gradient effects on the green parts of the embroidery. 💚🪡

Wanted to make a sort of PS1 sort of me styled pic of Spyro looking down like the Spyro 1 game over screen (which I added because this image was mostly traced over it for full transparency).

I always found the game over screen for Spyro 1 so eerie as a kid. The full moon in the background and lack of music really spooked me. Now I just find it weirdly comforting. Maybe that's nostalgia for you!

Project Dragon was a game that was in development for 3 years only to be canceled weeks from its announcement and its entire art and development team laid off. The game (which would have been called 'Everhaven' upon release) was intended to be a multiplayer sandbox rpg taking inspiration from both Minecraft and The Legend of Zelda, with an art style similar to that of the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which some of the team members also worked on along with Crash Bandicoot 4.

According to character design/illustrator Nicholas Kole "Our cancelled project of the last 3 years is officially, truly dead as of today (internal attempts to save it failed), and the embargo on the whole body of portfolio work has been lifted". This means that the only way the game has a chance of resuming development is by raising awareness and spreading the word of it's development. More info from Nicholas Kole and #BringBackProjectDragon Even if you're not interested in the game itself, you can find the concept art, animations, 3D models, music and all other completed pieces of work for the game being shared by the team at either of these links, and I think are worth checking out. Some mounts and NPCs

4 of the 5 playable starter races (5th being human of course)

Edit: the decision to cancel the game was made by Forte, a blockchain company that acquired Phoenix Labs last year, who later decided to cancel all other projects so that the studio could focus on Dauntless and Fae Farm, Phoenix Labs' other already established games, rather than take the risk with this new IP.

I advise against sending any sort of hate towards Forte or Phoenix Labs and instead recommend continuing to share love for Everhaven and what it could have been until they realize their mistake.

Also thanks for 10k notes.

OHHhhh well that explains a lot-

The real reason Cynder and other characters changed colors in DOTD

"I won't talk much about Spyro because for me it's one of the worst productions I've worked on. Our engine was too old to correctly display normal maps. It was decided to boost glossiness and had an orange bloom. The whole game render looked oily and ugly On most ELB productions, we didn't have an artistic director and decisions were made by the studio manager. These choices were decisive in the final rendering of the game. It was difficult to bring subtlety to the textures since the render was broken." - Yannick Gombart

This explains SO MUCH. We finally have the actual reason why Cynder’s change in scale color from black to indigo/dark purple! And the Chronicler's colors changing from gray to bright blue! And it has nothing to do with story!

Cynder, the Chronicler, and other characters had their textures changed so that they can stand out in the messy bloom that covered the whole game and a result of DOTD’s broken game render and outdated game engine.

The game also didn’t have an art director, can you believe it?? So Etranges Libellules’ studio manager had to make the decisions. That explains why the character designs were all over the place too!
