Description
Aika from "Skies of Arcadia," and her Swirlmerang--a weird weapon that you either downloaded over the Internet (Dreamcast) or won in a certain bounty fight (Gamecube).Β Not as great as her other weapons, but very cute~ΒRelated content

Wow! This is an awesome one of Aika. I love her expression β you made her look really cute.
That was definitely a cool weapon! (I donβt want to advertise as such in your comments, but there was also a disc image somebody did with the downloadable files as part of a huge Dreamcast save file collection. That just seemed like a great way to get the extras now if finding them on the βnet was getting tricky, and people may have issues getting their Dreamcasts on the Internet now.)
I see you do NiGHTS art too! I must look at that!

Thank you very much!Β I always liked Aika's design, and she had some of the best facial expressions in the game.Β She was my favorite one to draw when I was younger, and still is
That sounds pretty interesting!Β Where does this save file collection exist?Β I think I remember something like that on the defunct EsoArcadia website years ago...

You're welcome! I remember when she landed face first on the rail car / train, and her eyes went all swirly.
The link I had for the save collection seems to have gone, but if you want, I can probably add it to my Stash, and you can get it. (It's only about 8.38 MB.) Itβs a RAR file containing a CDI disc image. Once you've burnt it, you just put it in your Dreamcast, and choose what saves to load from the menu.
Let me know in a note or something.

Ah yes, the best meelee weapon, beating the snot out of someone using a gaint lollipop. ...and I thought the Tales of Series got weird with its joke weapons. Either way this looks brilliant! I've never played a skies of arcarida game before but I have heard of it? Either way you did a wonderful job as usual DP. <3

A giant lollipop that is guaranteed to cause Confusion in any enemy it strikes...except for bosses, naturally
Thank you!Β I've been meaning to draw Skies characters again since I'm watching a brilliant stream of the game and also replaying it myself for the first time in years

Wow, that actaully sounds pretty nifty. So what's the catch? Short range?Β
Ahh you are welcome! I suppose it would be one of those cult classic games that is hard to get these days. Much like Thousand Year Door which is considered very rare to get, used copies sell for as much as they were worth when the game was inprint! And also the original Shantae which physical price is well over 300 bucks for just a stand alone copy!Β

Well, Aika can either hurl it like her standard Boomerang-esque weapons, or she can bop someone on the head at close range.Β Either way, they'll be dazed for awhile afterwards
Yep!Β Skies is definitely a cult-status game, and like many Gamecube titles is hard to find and/or afford.Β I got incredibly lucky years back to find a copy for under $50--a pipe dream these days, unfortunately!Β It's like sellers know how rare and coveted a game is...so they jack up the price to make decent bank off of nostalgia Β
