#that and buckshot roulette is a LOT of fun

[diorama-love]

boo hiss at the fact that i'm still masking for someone who is aware* (i get why it gave me glowing mousegirl but why GIRL. do i exhibit babygirl tendencies) but anyway why is it that the face from buckshot roulette doesn't wig me out but similar faces do... hmm

i guess it doesn't emulate my big "that's gonna get me in the night" fears and the game isn't scary (at least the way markiplier plays it, he's REALLY good) so who knows tbh.

my anxiety is too heightened for most horror games lately but i guess it's not really a horror game??? or, again, it's not with markiplier bc he's good. it's actually very grounding for me to play along. v fun.

Buckshot Roulette but with G-Man!

[howlonomy]

Idea for dt clover monster

1- 6 shooter, where the board gets split into 6 sections and you have to remember how the rounds were loaded into it

2- buckshot, where clover will shoot the board with a shotgun but the rounds fan out like the astral dreamer attack

3- lasso and lazer where the board is lined up with a double barrel shotgun and the soul is tied to the center having to avoid each shot from each barrel

4- clover will slowly move their talons in and you have to fire at them to keep them away

Beyond that I’m not sure, maybe they use their wings to block attacks?

yall are way more creative than me with this kinda stuff AHDJSJCN but ill add my own thoughts!!

YELLOW ATTACKS; If you get hit with one of DT!Clover’s yellow attacks, your HP gets sucked out and used to heal DT!Clover instead (similar to Ceroba’s red attacks).

1) Six Shooter —> Russian Roulette: In a very similar vein, you watch a (yellow colored) round be loaded into a revolver; you have like half a second to react to a reticle being put on your soul before it’s fired and it’s either a live round (normal bullet attack) or a yellow round.

2) Buckshot: Huge shotgun attacks that explodes into stars. The stars explode into SMALLER stars. Very bullet hell.

3) Prey: Similar to Ed’s attack, you have to avoid Clover’s talons grabbing you; if caught, you are stuck in one place and aimed at by either feathers, stars, or revolver shots. Very difficult to move and avoid attacks if caught.

4) Blackhole: Extending their wings, their inner wings turn into the void of space, sucking you to the top of the battle box. You must avoid swipes from their claws or shooting stars coming out of their wings.

5) One Last Hurrah: Similar to Zenith Martlet’s attack where the screen goes huge and she flies towards you (idk the name lmao); Clover’s tail splits into four; they slam it into the battle box, yellow shards spraying. The main attack is DT!Clover’s SOUL charge up an attack and shoot towards you. They swat your bullets away with their tail, you can’t hurt them during this attack.

EXTRA CHALLENGES: As the fight goes on, lighting surrounds attacks that have things to do with DT!Clover’s physical body; such as their talons or wings. Extra damage, and occasionally yellow! A lot of simpler attacks also overlap, like how Zenith Martlet has like 3 different attacks going on every round. Things like TNT explosions, gunpowder lines you have to avoid (or else it will explode), and gunshots that shatter the battle box into segments (so you’re stuck in one section unless you take damage to move through the cracks).

You would have to aim for DT!Clover’s soul with bullets to hurt them! No other spot would damage them; just their soul. idk how all this would work in an actually game but this was fun to theorize and think up >:]

John... Buckshot Roulette👀

Buckshot Roulette is a lot of fun. 😁

[logicpng]

Helloooo

I'm intrigued by the design of Dealer, but I don't know the universe or anything! Could you maybe link me to a post that explains? Or if there's a chronological story, link me to the start of it?

Thanks :)

so there's this fun little horror tabletop game by an estonian developer

Buckshot Roulette is a computer game where you gamble with your life in hopes of killing the Dealer before they kill you, and walk away with loads of cash.

...that's it! that's all there is to it, it's a very short experience. not much of a story or explicit lore, besides some implied stuff and the ARG that hasn't gone anywhere in months. it's very cheap and short, you could probably get it and play it yourself!

that being said, despite being such a short game it's got a Very strong atmosphere to it, and that's basically what got me hooked onto it. i grew up in a decaying town full of ruins left behind by the soviet regime, so something about it all just... clicked and stuck with me, even before i found out the dev was from estonia.

...and then months later i got inexplicably obsessed with that man on the other side of the table so i just keep posting about him

everything i've made so far is derived from the base game and that sense of connection to it. the feeling of ever-present decay, the devices that never seem to break despite the growing rust, constructs that will never be allowed to truly die.

if you're asking whether the lore i expanded and twisted it all into has a post w/ explanation and timeline, there really isn't one. im just making things up on the spot depending on what the heart desires, so you're just better off scrolling through the backlog of drawings i made about it. there's a lot, at least for me

[becauseplot]

had a lot of fun watching cellbit play buckshot roulette last night and got a rare urge to draw! :D

no promises i’ll keep this up but i slept on it and still like it, so onto the tumblr it goes i guess. man that high score really was something huh. anyway link to a piece of lovely spiderbit fanart i used as reference for the hair bc we cite our sources in this house (and i can’t draw hair.) don’t ask me why the second picture is more yellow my lamp is just weird like that.

medium: mechanical pencil for class notes, regular pencil i found under the couch, and shitty eraser that doesn’t erase on two (2) pieces of lined filler paper taped together.

[tothepointofinsanity]

I should’ve said this earlier honestly, but your PMMM Buckshot Roulette is so so so so good, it made me want to check out the game (finally!) and WOW, I understand the picture a whole lot better. It’s also the artwork I discovered you with and it is beautiful *sobs*

Also, Sayaka cutely shocking Kyoko back to life is adorable (I love the background music too! It’s such a neat addition!)

Oh, hey, glad you checked out the game! Buckshot Roulette is truly innovative for its mechanics and gritty aesthetics, and the music is very compelling in any high-stakes scenario. I just thought it would be fun to have Homura in a crossover piece for once…so I’m happy that you like it, and not only that, but it seems to have reached others to give the game a chance too. Sayaka is also medic core or whatever so it’s only fair I include her in it that way. o_o

Thanks for the support and encouragement! 🙇‍♂️

[cryptidofthekeys]

Ibis Paint Edition:

This is when I started to get the hang of brushes, layers, and etc-

The first drawing I did when I got the app:

TW: Blood for the next one

I'm actually REALLY proud of this one btw- I loved drawin Evil Pep to the uh Cuphead Game Over screen ...not good with rhymes or dialogue tho

TW: Blood and Gore

TW: Yandere Themes, Y/N's kidnapped essentially- (you cant see the details I dont think bc of the lighting which sucks- again I really wish I coulda uploaded the direct files themselves :/

I'm not super into Buckshot Roulette but this was fun to draw

I don't do sketches a lot tbh but I like this Peppino more as a sketch than a finished drawing

This was my first attempt at drawing Evil Peppino btw-

TW: Some blood on this next one

My SM OC, CC: (I need to make a DIGITAL art ref for him- but legit might make this my icon on the bird app ...not showing my art there tho bc too scary)

TW: Blood

And that's all I got! Well there WAS one drawing that was nearly finished and also some animations that I would love to show but ...t-trying to post videos is h e l l so for now- my animations will be mostly unavailable

[skinscribbles]

I'll say it a million times, but I really like Quincy and wish to learn more about your OC and see them more in the future

blinks at you with my big ol' eyes. well you can learn more about Quincy now! because I am bonkers mcyonkers about em rn so FUN FACT TIME LETS GO

Quincy is..... you! Technically. They're a Y/N (wattpad style) situation. I wanted to have some sort of player character that people can insert themselves into, but of course, one character can't truly encompass everyone - in that case, I created their look and personality off of what would make sense in the environment of Buckshot Roulette. They frequent the nightclub, they're an adrenaline junkie, they're sometimes cocky, and they just don't know how to stay dead - and for the low low price of absolutely free, you too can imagine yourself in their shoes and live out the dream of being servalicious and gambling your life with swag

On the topic of Y/Ns, the name Quincy isn't their real name. Their real name is left unknown (of course allowing for self insert purposes), and the name Quincy comes from the fact that they just frequent the nightclub. Frequent -> -quent -> quint -> Quincy

They know how to skateboard. Why? Because it's cool

Yes, Quincy was developed from the player character in my buckshot top surgery post. Their AGAB is still gonna be vague, though. tits out for everyone godbless

It's currently in the works, but the general backstory as to how they learned about the game is through the staff - specifically, the Bartender (another oc I barely have developed). Why were they chosen to be told the game to? Well, I can't just spill everything yet :]

that's all I got rn! I don't have a lot of energy rn but I'll post Quincy whenever I get a good amount doodled. plus the almost 3.5k word fic that I'm still writing that also gives the reason why they don't have a fucking shirt on but alas I am dragging my feet but I'll say when it's finished

[unhingedkinfessions]

WE'RE ALLOWED KIN THE DEALER FROM BUCKSHOT ROULETTE??? No wonder I saw that and went "me"

Thanks other dealer kin ask I saw

Anxious abt adding dealer to my list of names though that sounds so sketch bru

hey buddy. youre allowed to kin a lot of stuff. have fun and be silly ok.

[devisopod]

this is mostly related to your ama post but. do you like buckshot roulette!!! and are you good at it. (<- am i the only one that is absolutely awful at it? LOL)

yeah! I think it's a lot of fun!!

I would say that I'm good at it, I think? I've always just really liked strategy games though, but I'll admit that it can be difficult. Sometimes the game is totally just luck, so one way or another, you're gonna get what's coming to ya

[toomanyf4ndoms7]

Salazar/Sally MK11 KONCEPT:

Bio: Expert markswoman and self made orphan, Sally “Salazar” Rider earned Kano’s attention after taking down some of his goons because they took one of her targets. Kano gave her an offer, more money than home would offer, and double the fun. Now working for the most dangerous criminal in earthrealm, Sally keeps her guns loaded and eyes locked on the next payday.

Skins:

Fast Gun: Her default outfit. A leather jacket over a practical BD vest. Has some southern fashion, but this is her in BD mode.

Family Fortunes: A more fancy outfit, but still practical enough to keep her guns hidden. Has a family logo.

In the fray: A dressed down version of 'Fast Gun' Her biceps are exposed, with a bulletproof vest under her shirt.

Little Orphan Sally: The outfit Sally wore to her parent's funeral. A formal skirt. If you look closely, you'll see some blood on the handkerchief in her pocket.

Normals: (Lots of pistol whips., she has a move with short range gunshots)

Base special moves:

Sally is a woman of many talents, primarily relating to firearms. She can switch between a pair of handguns and a shotgun, but never all at once. Each ‘stance’ has limited ammo before reloading. If out of ammo for both guns, her throw is changed to incorporate a small pocket knife.

(Handguns: Seven bullets each.) (Shotgun: Six bullets.)

Firing off: Salazar grabs the opponent by the neck and fire a shot in their stomach before kicking them down. Amplify for three more shots. (Handgun stance.) if out of ammo, she’ll pistol whip the opponent instead.

Buckshot: Salazar shoves the end of her shotgun against the opponent’s nose, knocking them down. Amplify for her to twirl it around and fire point blank. If the shotgun is out of ammo, she’ll smack them with it like a baseball bat. (shotgun stance.)

High shot: Sally fires upwards, catching airborne opponents. Amplify for a pop up:

Boom: Sally tosses a grenade in an arc. Amplify as it’s thrown for her to shoot it, causing an explosion that bounces the opponent if they’re in range.

Kustom special moves:

Gun spin: Salazar pulls out her gun and twirls it around. Depending on when you release the button, she shoots either upwards, downward, or straight forward.

Connections: Sally whistles and a sniper from offscreen fires at the opponent. Can be delayed.

Old trick: Sally takes off her hat and bows. If the opponent hits her, she dodges and smacks them away. Amplify for a gun shot.

Fatal blow:

Gun-Show: Sally smash the opponent twice with her handguns before firing a twin shot two their opponent’s gut (SLO MO 1) she pockets her guns and takes out her shotgun, ramming the stock into their nose (SLO MO 2) Finally, as the opponent falls on their back, she points the barrel at their face, smirking. She pulls the trigger and fires. (SLO MO 3)

Fatalities:

Long distance: Sally drops a smoke bomb and disappears. The opponent looks around, finding her nowhere to be seen. Then, from out of nowhere, a bullet shoots through their chest. The camera pans away go reveal Sally with a sniper rifle, the crosshairs pointed right at their head. She pulls the trigger, and you get a nice shot of their head exploding through the scope.

Cowgirl roulette: Sally pulls out an old fashioned revolver and spins the chamber two times. She pulls the trigger, but nothing comes out. The opponent breathes a sigh of relief before Sally spins again, and fires a bullet into their throat. There’s a POV shot of the opponent as Sally crouches down with a finger to her lips, as if asking them to die quietly.

Intro animations:

Contract Killer: Sally walks in with a phone to her ear. “Understood, double the pay, half the time.”

Good Girl: A horse rides into frame, the camera pans up to show Sally on her back. She steps off as she talks.

High Noon: A tumbleweed rolls along the ground, leading to show Sally cleaning one of her guns.

Mama’s favourite: Bullets are loaded into a golden revolver, before it’s twirled around and stuffed into a holster.

Outro animations:

Bounty collected: Sally scoops up the opponent, tying their legs and arms up. She then hops onto her horse and she rides off while dragging the opponent across the ground.

A day’s work: Sally tips her hat and walks off. The scene fades to show her sitting at a BD tavern with her hat covering her face. The camera cuts close to her face as she lightly tilts it up, orange light coming from her cigar.

Love the thrill: Sally stretches out with a pleased sigh. “Oh, I love this job.” She turns away, walking into the sunset.

Good ol’ days: Sally pulls out a picture of her family, smiling softly. “Love you, ma.” Slowdown of her blocking out her younger self’s face.

Idle animations:

She stretches out.

She taps her boot against the back of her other.

Intro dialogue:

Vs Kano:

Salazar: What’s the occasion?

Kano: Now that we’ve got Erron back, I’m wondering if you’re worth it.

Salazar: *Chuckle* Oh, now you’ve done it.

Vs Cassie:

Salazar: Cute toys, little girl.

Cassie: That’s a funny way to refer to a deadly weapon.

Salazar: Only if you know how to use’ em.

Cassie, in an impression of Sally’s accent: Howdy, Miss.

Salazar: Knock it off.

Cassie: Someone’s testy…

Vs Tasia:

Sally: Quit stealing my kills.

Tasia: It’s not my fault you’re a slow shooter.

Sally: Allow me to prove you wrong.

Vs Erron:

Sally: This town ain't big enough for the two of us...

Erron: Askin' for a standoff?

Sally: Count of three.

Vs Kitana:

Sally: I'm an heiress too, you know.

Kitana: That doesn't make us equals.

Sally: Yeah, cause I'm no pampered princess.

Mid fight quotes:

“Watch yourself.”

“Is that it?”

"Run on home."

[hikayeplays]

An introduction is perhaps necessary, I'm Hikaye and as a child I was forbidden from playing video games. Of course I disobeyed but my forays in the gaming world were bite and run, mostly a farming web game and some time spent on an old secret Nintendo DS with a cracked cartridge with the 12 dancing princess platform games and some other random ones. When I went to uni I got minecraft and then made a steam account and got the Sims 4, CKIII, TW:Warhammer and played them for a lot, a lot of hours just simply dicking around and having fun.

So I decided to just, learn how to game and so, having never touched an action game i got Dark Souls and bought my first controller. I figured that if I was to start I may have as well gotten gud from the start.

Transparent versions:

20 marching mfs:

Baba, from Hempuli's Baba is You 🇫🇮

The unnamed protagonists from Playdead's LIMBO and INSIDE 🇩🇰

Six and Mono, from Tarsier Studios' Little Nightmares series 🇸🇪

The protagonist (nicknamed Milk-Chan) from Nikita Kryukov's Milk inside a bag of milk inside a bag of milk and Milk outside a bag of milk outside a bag of milk 🇷🇺

""William Clarkson""", from Garage Heathen's Who's Lila? 🇷🇺

Fran Bow Dagenhart and her kitty Mr Midnight, from Killmonday Games' Fran Bow 🇸🇪

Enki the Dark Priest, from Miro Haverinen's Fear & Hunger (1) 🇫🇮

Marina the Occultist, from Miro Haverinen's Fear & Hunger 2: Termina 🇫🇮

An Executor, from Ice-Pick Lodge's Pathologic series 🇷🇺

The protagonist (I call him Post-Man lol) from YCJY’s Post Void 🇸🇪

Harrier (Harry) DuBois from ZA/UM’s Disco Elysium 🇪🇪

Alan Wake (he’s a writer) from Remedy Entertainment’s Alan Wake series 🇫🇮

Simon Henriksson from Team Psykskallar’s Cry of Fear 🇸🇪

Simon Jarrett from Frictional Games’ SOMA 🇸🇪

Jacket from Dennaton Games’ Hotline Miami 🇸🇪

The Dealer from Mike Klubnika’s Buckshot Roulette 🇪🇪

Indika from Odd-Meter’s INDIKA 🇷🇺

James Seth Lynch from IO Interactive’s Kane & Lynch series 🇩🇰

Easily the best art I’ve done of Dealer, tried my best to replicate Mike’s grungy rendering style. The big dark cloud behind him is separate from him, for the sake of his transparent render not having clear cut-off edges. The shotgun is also a separate layer in Procreate, so the head can be behind Indika while still having the shotgun in front of her.

Lynch was made to look like he came straight out of 2010’s camcorder footage, so his colours are blown out and he’s fuzzier and grainier than most of the rest of these. Almost reminds me of the cover of the first Manhunt game.

Not much to say about Indika honestly, other than I did a lot of tweaking to make her face look semi-accurate to the face model. Plus the gold halo was fun to make lol

Only 2 characters left to do! Then I’m free of this project! ;w;

Four Very Unlucky, Very Traumatized Children (plus Baba) on a Walk

(Plus transparent versions of the individual characters)

This is part of a larger piece I’m doing centred around weird games from Scandinavia (or at least Northern Europe). Thought I’d post small batches of characters instead of waiting to finish the whole ensemble, so that I can post a bit more.

So far we have:

Baba, from Hempuli’s Baba is You 🇫🇮

The unnamed protagonists from Playdead’s LIMBO and INSIDE 🇩🇰

Six and Mono, from Tarsier Studios’ Little Nightmares series 🇸🇪

These were the simplest ones by far (I literally finished Baba in the “sketching” phase). I look forward to the hell that’s gonna be the more experimental designs/ artstyles (I’m looking at you, Post-Void…).

With future additions, I’ll also add the current progress on the full piece. These guys are pretty small on the overall canvas ngl, so if I shared it now, it’d be a mostly blank canvas :P

Expect more of these soon. Luvs <3

[my-fortified-wager]

"An interview...? Well, I suppose I am included to agree, I do hate boredom... Sure, why not. Tell me what you have in mind, love."

Aventurine leaned back into the couch, tilting his head ever so slightly as he listened along.

"Buckshot Roulette? Why, I can't say I have, Miss Mary! Please, tell me more, you've piqued my interest. It sounds like it could be a lot of fun... should my luck play itself right."

Aventurine was resting on a couch near a window that shows the full moon on the sky. The floor was empty — a perfect place for some alone time honestly… until a woman with a short blue hair and blue … butterfly wings, suddenly sat on the opposite side of Aventurine with her legs crossed together and smiling.

“Greetings~ would you care to have a small chat with me, clover boy~”

@ask-the-chief-heads

The young man paused as he glanced down at the blue haired lady curiously. Then, he busted out into roaring laughter, unable to contain the sudden amusement.

“…bwahaha! Clover boy? My, that’s certainly a new one…”

Carefully tilting his head aside, he viewed this new stranger through his rose covered lens. Then, chuckling, he responded.

“Sure, why not. Whatever could you have to talk about with little old me, miss?”
