[Start ID. The ending screen of the ULTRAKILL level P-2: Wait of the World. It was completed on Standard with a D rank, with 43 minutes and 47.094 seconds in time, 3020 style, and 59 restarts and kills both. The ranking board is blacked out so OP’s steam username isn’t shown, and on the other side of the screen the stats are unusually absent, indicating this is OP’s first time beating the level. End ID]

sorry for showing up to liveblog ultrakill and then abandoning tumblr for five days in a row. It will happen again

GRAH. ok. iirc this is the only ultkill level I've ever NOT beat in one sitting. usually i'm too stubborn to leave until it's done (see howi spent 3 hours beating minos). like this is my third go at it. i finally p-ranked 5-2 three days ago (much to my complete and utterastonishment) and ended up dying 76 times to sisyphus (plus one to the panopticon and maybe 15-40 to the rest of the level) beforerestarting the entire level by accident. the day after that i died 20 times in the city + got frustrated and lefti get so desensitized to the difficulty of ultrakill though p-2 was WILD. literally at first it was identical to those mods hk players makelike fireborn's ''path of pain while 50 unkillable primal aspids are chasing me'' and literally anyone who's ever attempted anyrad 3.0like there was just an overwhelming sense of WHY WOULD ANYONE EVER MAKE THIS. THIS SHOULD BE ILLEGAL and it was the only time i ever backeddown from an ultrakill challenge. and then today it's just ''oh hi room with blessed stalker + h. mass and 4 sentries how are you today''anyway ough. i cant believe that with the exception of violent difficulty i'm so close to perfecting everything the game has to offer (yet)i do have a uk character bookmarked on art fight that i said i could only draw after beating sisypus though so :3AND I CAN FINALLY GET THE P-2 SHIRT I CAN PUT IN MY SONA'S PERMISSIONS THAT YOU'RE ALLOWED TO DRAW THEM IN ITok anywayperidots-nonsense

[Start IDs. Two ULTRAKILL screenshots from levels P-1: SOUL SURVIVOR and 6-1: CRY FOR THE WEEPER, respectively. Both are viewed from behind a death screen, as OP was killed by one of Minos’ shockwaves in the first and then a Hideous Mass’ explosives in the second. However, the health bars of both bosses are at 0, and the stats on the right indicate that both levels were technically completed right before death, with an S in time, kills, and style; otherwise a perfect P-Rank. End IDs]

TORMENT. SUFFERING EVEN.

ok so technically i p-ranked P-1 a week ago but it's the fact that this happened AGAIN that's getting me!!!!!!!!!i've got my own personal layer in hell (p-ranking a level and immediately dying to a boss's passive attacks; forced to repeat forever)and it's basically just the punishment of sisyphus which is REAL FUNNY cause i'm DOING THIS TO REACH P-2.only have 5-2 and 6-1 left but i'm waiting until i can draw again so i can name my first attack of AF after 5-2 so 6-1 it isok. well last time this happened i went on to p-rank the level in the next attempt so. don't fail me nowperidots-nonsenseultrakillmaybe i should have a tag for me just liveblogging games? perhaps?

cant believe every single ultrakill character is trans. happy pride

hey trans robots (< is a trans robot)v2 ultrakillv1 ultrakillgabriel ultrakillultrakillbotsprev i think this is actually the first time i've ever reblogged one of your art posts? despite following you through both hk and uk art???which is wild because your usual shading (which i'd describe as almost fabric-y) is fascinating and i think your colors are especiallywonderful here! i enjoy the gold on gabriel in particular and the consonance with the whites and browns is really nice!! :]mipexchperidots-reblogsforgot. that tag

[Start ID. An ULTRAKILL screenshot of the end of level P-1: Soul Survivor, on standard difficulty. The screen displays that OP took 3 minutes and 5.18 seconds to complete it, got the required two kills, and ended with 9648 style points, not dying a single time. In other words, it’s a perfect P-rank. End ID]

easy boss

minos prime ultrakillultrakillperidots-nonsenseGRAHHH. THE CAPTION'S ACTUALLY EVEN MORE IRONIC THAN IT WAS IN THE FIRST POST!!! THIS GUY HAS TAKEN UP SO MUCH OF MY TIMEi'd estimate this is my. 15th time beating this level?? and i've only beat them both without restarts one other time (big ol asterisk here)but the times I've died to him and the flesh prison (moreso him than it of course) are completely immeasurable. so this was FANTASTIC*two times if you're counting the run right before this screenshot. i was so so close and hadn't restarted and i killed him and then DIED TTHE SHOCKWAVES FROM HIS 'DIE' ATTACK. turned on cheats and Railcannon Blasted him to death but nevermind that because. whaough.this very well could be my greatest gaming acheivement ever... apologies if it seems like bragging i just suffered to this level so muchso i'm just like. A LITTLE proud right now. anyway farewell tag-wanderer i should probably work on a certain wip before july 1st comes :]

Sibling asked me to fill a page with ultk characters three days ago and I think I had. A very normal amount of fun doing that.

aka “just for the record—I LOVE SWORDSMACHINE!!” *crowd cheering*

Decide

Drya (she/her) and Tel (she/they)

Argentum (he/him)

See Results

Drya (she/her) and Tel (she/they) (or Team Drya) from @enbeemerang

Drya is a (very lovable) dumb rosy maple moth, who came from far outside of Bugaria. Right now, she resides outside of Defiant Root with her girlfriend, Tel! Drya's very outspoken, and is ready to defend her friends with whatever it takes. She's canonically trans, and a lesbian! She very much enjoys going to Crisbee's for a snack, and doing jobs with her girlfriend. Drya uses a spear (a toothpick with a shard of metal tied onto it) as her weapon, and won't stand down. Drya is always down to make a friend, and with her outspoken nature, knows many bugs across Bugaria. She's also a bit of a herbo.

Tel is a much more rational sap beetle. Due to her quietness and more closed off personality, she may come off as cold and not friendly to new bugs she meets. But, she holds lots of care for those she holds close like her friends and loved ones. Growing up in Defiant Root, she loves the research side of exploring, knowing that Drya has her back. Tel is also trans, and a lesbian. Tel's weapon of choice are metal shards. She carries up to 5 whenever she goes out exploring, which she throws at her enemies. She enjoys documentation, and frequents the Ant Kingdom Library whenever she can. Having grown up in Bugaria, she knows practically everybody in Defiant Root, and others across the Ant Kingdom.

Tel and Drya met about two years pre canon in the game. Drya left her home to find somewhere more accepting, and after losing her sibling in the journey, found herself in the Lost Sands. Dehydrated and lost, she couldn't continue. That night, Tel found her, and helped her regain her strength. The year on, Drya had stayed in Defiant Root with Tel, where the two grew closer, until they began dating. After Drya had learned of the explorer's guild, she was eager to be able to continue exploring and going on journeys, with a land that accepted her.

Tel and Drya are an inseparable duo. When they explore, Drya takes up the front, ready to defend her girlfriend at any given moment. Tel goes slower, stopping to document things, or to take samples and place them in the little pouch she carries. They love each other very much! They fight as a single unit, and are best friends.

They also both wear Favorite One medals, as they are each others favorites :)

Argentum (he/him) from @alagadda

Argentum is a beautiful silver wasp (Priochilus gloriosum) and a mercenary, assassin, and bounty hunter. He appeals to those who would seek his illicit services because he does his job without asking questions. He's very impersonal during work but much more open and emotional in everyday life. He's a real prick, honestly.

He takes the mandibles off his victims as proof of a job well done, but he often makes necklaces out of them and keeps them as trophies because there's something deeply wrong with him. He also loots all his victims corpses so his husband can sell off their belongings.

He's in a surprisingly healthy and loving marriage with Aurum, a golden reined digger wasp (Sphex habenus) ex-explorer, who became disillusioned with life after almost dying in search of the Everlasting Sapling. They both reside in Defiant Root where Aurum runs a shop to sell off the aforementioned looted goods, but he wants both of them to eventually move to the Golden Settlement. Aurum loves his husband deeply even if he's completely out of his mind and thinks wearing body parts as trophies is cool. He wants Argentum to do literally anything else as a job, but still loves and supports him.

He attacks with his prized blade, poisoned with his own venom and made by Aurum from the mandible of his first victim.

[Start ID. Two side-by-side drawings in the same palette. The left image shows Drya sitting with her legs bent in front of her, facing to the left and seemingly on a flat surface, one hand at her spear and the other on the floor. She’s smiling and looking back at Tel. The right image depicts Tel, cross-legged on the floor and facing right, holding a whetstone and shard. Her face is partially obscured, but she looks back at Drya. Her bag and a spare metal shard lay behind her. Both images share a pink tone, and matching background in the colors of the lesbian flag. End ID.]

[Start ID. Four drawings of Hollow Knight ocs, in a dull green tone on a small canvas. Taking up the right half is a render of Caramel, a bee wielding a mantis claw across her shoulder and donning a cape in the colors of the aromantic flag. On the left are three colored sketches: the first at the top shows Caramel with her trio of friends, green-mantled bug Hawksbeard talking with her and gray millipede Molini curled around them both. The caption to the right says “Friends who love her” in all caps. In the center-left is a drawing of a tan and brown slugcat with a vulture mask on her face and a spear on her back, captioned “caramel slugcat, what will she do”. Last is a sketch of Caramel and the bee nosk Pollux, who’s dressed in an asexual flag of their own, and who has taken Caramel’s mask to hold it up to its face. Caramel looks at her cheerfully, arm around her back. End ID.]

image

[Start ID. A rough drawing of Caramel and Hawksbeard in Rain World. They’re now a tan slugcat and green scavenger, respectively, seeming less familiar with each other in the image than they are in canon. Caramel now has two spears on her back, holding another spear in one hand and a pearl in the other. Hawksbeard wears a sash of pearls, and offers a lantern to Caramel, the only thing lighting up the drawing in the dim Shaded Citadel. End ID.]

image

[Start ID. Another drawing of Caramel and Hawksbeard together, sitting down on a blank, dull green background. A cropped tweet by Caramel’s head reads “Why are girls allowed to say girlfriend to refer to a platonic friend, but I can’t say ‘this is my boytoy twink malewife Hawksbeard’”, with a spur indicating she’s saying it, and the Hawksbeard part being a write-over. Caramel gestures with one hand in a sort of wave and has her other arm around her friend, while Hawksbeard looks at her in slight concern, simply stating “what”. End ID.]
