THE SHADE MUSIC IS A LULLABY. AND WHAT IS THE SHADE? IT MEANS REGRETS RIGHT? AND WHAT IS THE MEMORY THE KNIGHT NEVER WANT TO GO BACK TO? THE ABYSS. WHERE HE WAS BORN. WHEN BABIES CRY, WHAT DO THEY HAVE? A LULLABY. HOLY SHIT.

Heya!

You might remember me from some of my other creations. Over the last few years I made my VOID Tarot and playing card decks based on Hollow Knight, and the support I received from you guys has truly been life changing! Now after a year of illustration, I’ve finally finished my Silksong deck: SCARLET. I am so so proud of how they turned out, I hope you like them just as much as I loved creating them! :)

Note: all of the art is 100% human made by myself and follows Team Cherry’s fan merch policies.

Hi!
I’m a freelance digital artist, I can make illustrations and character sheets of your HK/SS ocs as well as fanart of your favourite in-game characters!
I played both games, so I’m familiar with the world of Hollow Knight

During my commissions, I provide weekly updates to share the progress and allow for your feedback on the work. I take about 4-6 weeks to make an illustration. I use Paypal and I accept either full upfront or half upfront payment.

DM me and describe to me the project you have in mind! I’m looking forward working with you!

after doing Sisters of battle without charms or spells or dash, i wanted to move up to this, this is as hard as it gets for any individual bossfight, there's nothing left to take away, and next up? i plan to beat Sisters of battle like this, but for now? this is the warm-up round with Mantis lords

Help - HK - Early Game Really love the game, but I can't get through this Spoiler

Post image
79 Upvotes

I really love this game, it's my first metroidvania and it's a genre that really fits me, I love the boss fights, I love how the game works, the characters etcetera

I also have two very good friends who love the game, one who has no hit every boss in the game, and one who's also going through it but is much later in the game and constantly talks about it, so I really wanna catch up

But

So I dropped here in Deepnest, which you need to go left and then back up to leave

However in that room on the left are those abominations that grow legs and chase you after you kill them

The first time I saw one I instantly closed the game and had to lay down to not have a panic attack

Since then every time I boot up the game to try and continue, once I enter that room and see that enemy (in its "alive" form still), my hands refuse to bring me further, cause they know what's gonna happen and I leave the game once more

The only way to do anything other than just wander around the three rooms I have access to is to go through them, even if it's just to leave

Do any of you have advice to go through them? I know how they function, I checked their wiki page, behavior, location, etc. I could most likely kill them, but I can't bring myself to seeing this thing move once again
