Happy Holidays & Winter Fanart Challenge: our 4 favorites!

[p]As we approach the end of the year, we want to wish you all happy holidays. We hope your days are filled with warmth, good food, and plenty of gaming.[/p][p]Looking back, 2025 has been an incredible year for the team, with the Kickstarter campaign being the highlight. The project confirmed our greatest wishes and banished our fears: Starfinder: Afterlight is loved and has a passionate community eager to play it. Thank you for your support; it keeps us motivated every single day.[/p][p][/p][h2]What’s Next?[/h2][p]Development is keeping us pretty busy at the moment. We are working to bring you the best CRPG experience we can deliver. Our narrative team is locking down dialogue for key quests, the art team is bringing new characters and locations to life, and the engineering team is refining combat mechanics. Every day, the Pact Worlds feel a little more alive on our screens, and we can't wait to show you.[/p][p]We have exciting news to share in January, so keep your eyes on our channels! But before we dive into 2026...[/p][h2]
❄️ Winter Fanart Challenge: Our 4 Favorites[/h2][p]And now, on to the expected selection of our Winter Fanart Challenge! For this occasion, we asked you to draw our characters (Kole, Tycho, Lu-323, Sterling, Preach, Larva, or Khali) enjoying the holidays however you imagined.[/p][p]The response has been excellent, and we've been delighted by your creations! Seeing how the community interprets these characters is genuinely rewarding, honestly, you give us a lot more inspiration than you realize. They were all warm and cozy, but here are our 4 favorites in no particular order:[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]You can actually feel the joy overflowing from this scene. Don't miss the details! Concierge and RPG-related mugs, Paizo cookies, Lu-323 and Sterling competing over cleavage… it's all there.[/p][p]🎨: ‪Brandon Chang on Bluesky.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Wise advice: Do not put rockets on your kid's sled. Not even an intergalactic crew of pros can handle such chaos. Unless, of course, you want to create memories that last forever 😉.[/p][p]🎨: ‪‪Lemniskate‬, on Bluesky.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Oh, to be an ethereal android whimsically experiencing snow for the first time, and portrayed in Art Nouveau style! Like one of your French girls. Beautiful ❄️.[/p][p]🎨: ‪nko, on Twitter.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Last advice: Remember that destroying is always more fun than creating. And scaring your carers in the process? Double the fun.[/p][p]🎨: ‪‪Jesse Whitmore, on Bluesky.[/p][p][/p][p]Thank you to everyone who participated! 🙌[/p][p][/p][p]Special mention goes to Nora on Bluesky. Their fanart included a riddle that had the community huddled together, breaking our brains trying to solve it. We love a good enigma! (Want to know the solution? Peek into the #artwork channel in our Discord).[/p][p][/p][h3]See you in the Drift! 💫[/h3][p]~ Alicia, on behalf of the Epictellers team[/p]
