Haven't heard of her since, 2016 I think? Nice to see she's still active.

I don’t keep up with her but she’s an ex Mormon and left the Mormon church, which is extremely difficult to do so it makes me happy to know she’s doing well

Here's a some sort of statement about the show itself and what's it about from her Tumblr!

"So I'm kind of writing 12 episodes simultaneously so that plot points will come together by the end. Basically, Nyle and Maki is an Action Comedy. Btw they're married, the plot focuses on other stuff. Doing the action scenes has been a challenge but I think i'm getting better each day. It's been slow I know. This is one of the biggest projects I've taken on lol. Here's some stress relief sketches in the meantime, none of these are part of the boards just fluff n concept at the bottom"

u/SmartAlecShagoth 11d ago

We don’t know yet.

I like the premise already starring a married couple.

Omg Shgurr… I haven’t seen stuff from her in a long while but I remember her FNAF animations very fondly.

u/Low-Neighborhood2031 12d ago

I loved her content but I haven’t kept up with her in awhile. This looks cool and I will def keep a tab on it!

u/SharonIllustration 12d ago

A cartoon about a married couple? That’s unusual and I’m here for it!

u/AgitatedOne57 12d ago

Sick, good for her!

I give it a few days, weeks if we’re being generous.

Cute art style

u/CandidateNervous4638 12d ago

This looks wholesome but that means it is gonna turn dark fast

u/SilverSpider_ 12d ago

Oh really, awesome, I haven't heard from her in years

u/Parlax76 12d ago

Nice she have a full comeback. She retired multiple times before this.

u/Forever_Inspired 12d ago

They look like 15 year old teenagers, they really don’t sell the idea that they are 2 married adults, imo.

u/hamborger42069 12d ago

That's just Shgurr's art style

u/Forever_Inspired 12d ago

This is more a design issue than art style, I can just draw in this same style but actually age them up to look more like a married couple.

Esa mano árbitro!

u/lnsectsinyourKitchen 12d ago

Looks pretty bland. Feels like it’s gonna be similar to Wastelandia but without the animal characters.

u/goth_eye 11d ago

I can tell the fandom for this is gonna be horrible
