I made a Console-Style Splatoon Font
I had the idea to make pixelated console style versions of some of the Splatoon fonts and I started with the Alterna script
You can download it if you want to use it!
Tumblr media
I based it off of the Fixedsys font, which is a computer font you're probably familiar with and also happens to be the oldest font that was part of Windows

Welcome to Future Utopia Island!
-The theme of this area is ‘childhood’. This was a place to gather for the younger citizens of Alterna, and the innocent remnants of their lives are scattered about.
-You can find a bicycle to ride on the shores of the island. Smallfry loves to tag along in the basket. ^^
-O.R.C.A.’s first terminal is found here. Once you have collected three Golden Eggs from the first section of the underground laboratory, O.R.C.A. will detect their energy on you and grant you access to the first few of its files, as well as the rest of the lab spaces in the area. Its hope is that you will continue to collect energy to ‘reawaken’ Alterna, and keep its legacy alive by  learning its workings and history.
-Shiver, along with the rest of Deep Cut, had no idea that O.R.C.A. existed until now. But since it’s opening up facilities where they can find more weapons, supplies, and Golden Eggs, they suggest you do whatever it wants so it’ll keep helping you. ^^
-The number of Golden Eggs you can collect is fixed: 3 from clearing each lab space, and 33 from defeating each King Salmonid boss. In this way, the number in your possession acts as a benchmark for your progress. However, the number of Power Eggs you can collect is unlimited, just like in the real game. You can search the overworld and return to lab spaces repeatedly to gather as many as you want. These are used to access/retry certain challenging levels, to feed Smallfry and clear Fuzzy Ooze, and to activate Nostalgic Devices.
-A Nostalgic Device is usually a mundane electrical appliance, toy, or piece of gadgetry, reminiscent of some aspect of life in Alterna. O.R.C.A. will reward you with special files and locker decorations for finding and activating them, and the Devices themselves will often lead you to Power Egg caches or Sunken Scrolls.
-When you look at certain locations from a far enough distance, you may see a large shadowy figure interacting with whatever Nostalgic Device is hidden there. If you’re having trouble finding any Devices, keep an eye out for that shadow while you explore Alterna!

Where 8 and 4 really were during the events of Alterna...
Honestly, if the macarena can exist post-humanity then so can Just Dance. It's simply too iconic.
BONUS: Agent 8's (Percy's) first experience at the Crust Bucket is forever immortalized as his pfp on Cap's phone.

Ain’t nobody gonna see this but I have theory of the Calamari Inkantation. Splatoon 3 Spoilers.
Okay so I was listening to Wave Goodbye, the Splatoon 3 Credits Song, over and over like a normal person, when at some point I realized when they get to the portion that starts the Calamari Inkantation lyrics, there are non-filtered voices singing. Humans Voices. (Pictured is around the point where that section starts)
Tumblr media
Then I thought to myself: What if the Calamari Inkantation originated as a song humans made on Alterna? A song to help them continue despite their world falling around them. Then I started looking into the logs and reflecting on past events with the song and..
Let’s just say Sunken Scroll #23 from Splatoon 1 saying: “Nowadays, this song and dance may as well be carved into the very DNA of all Inklings.” ..might be a tiny bit more literal than expected. Let’s take a look at what we know.
The Calamari Inkantation is a literal incantation. Series of words, or a song in this case, that causes magical effects. It has, in many cases, been known to give strength, physical or otherwise, to those who have been in audible range of it. Ex. Giving Cuttlefish the strength to break out of his restraints and Smallfry to temporarily evolve(?) into Hugefry.
With that said, I believe the “Calamari” part could be from the place it was “founded” in and taken on as a traditional song for. Calamari Country. Which is where Callie and Marie come from. Perhaps the Inklings of the area long ago found the sheet music.
Moving on, the part of this that helps this theory’s case is Alterna Log005: Fresh Intelligence Awakens.
Tumblr media
After the liquid crystals that retained decades of humanity’s wishes was absorbed by the squids, octopuses, and other sea creatures that inhabited Alterna’s waters.. it imbued them with fresh impulses that “bore a striking resembling to humanity’s passive desire to return to the Earth’s surface”.
Interesting. The desire to return to the surface was slowly fused into their DNA. You may be thinking “But what does this have to do with the Inkantation?” And that’s exactly where I’m going with this.
So if we are to think.. the Calamari Inkantation was made by the humans on Alterna, perhaps filled lyrically with their wishes.. and the sea creatures absorbed the desire and wishes of humanity to return to the surface through the liquid crystals.. and the Calamari Inkantation gives sea creatures the literal strength to move forward..
Tumblr media
And the INKADIA-BORN OCTOLINGS, who were SUFFERING in poor conditions UNDERGROUND in DOMES heard the CALAMARI INKANTATION and suddenly their “SOULS WERE FREED” and THE DESIRE TO RETURN TO THE SURFACE AND THRIVE WAS EVOKED INTO THEM AGAIN?
AFTER YEARS OF LIVING A HARD MILITARISTIC-STYLE LIFE WITH BEING INDUCTED INTO THE ARMY AT A YOUNG AGE, THEY FOUND THE STRENGTH TO LEAVE THEIR ENTIRE OLD LIFE BEHIND? TO RISK IT ALL. EVEN THEIR OWN LIFE. TO JOIN WHAT THEY WERE PRESUMED TO BE THEIR WORST ENEMIES ON THE SURFACE IN HARMONY?
After thinking about all this and rewatching the Octo Expansion Surface Cutscene (from that last GIF), I nearly wanted to CRY. They had never seen the real sky before, the real SUN before. They made it. Not only the Octolings but humanity’s final wishes made it too.
That’s my theory. Perhaps I’m wrong but either way I would love to see what people think. Thanks for reading.
Oh and also, since it named the “Inkantation” that means someone knew of its power... This just in, did the Inklings cheat in the Great Turf War?
But that’s for another day lol

love letter to alterna
words adapted from Stephen Dunn’s Love Poem Near the End Of the World
This was made for class, we had to make a comic that had no panel borders. the layout is strange because this is how it looks like when it’s read (not the best picture;;):
Tumblr media
The back of it also has a link to a playlist. It has some songs that remind me of the atmosphere of alterna. They’re a little strange and ambient, just like the soundscapes there!

O.R.C.A. Appreciation 💚💙🐬🖥💙💚👍👍👍
translation of 1st image & rambling under cut
"My Dear O.R.C.A.,
I’m typing this here for you to keep with you in the future. Maybe I’ll add a recording to go along with it.
Anyway, what I wanted to say was thank you. Thank you, O.R.C.A., for all the help. Thank you for being such a hard worker and a good friend. I love you very much.
I hope that you will be able to work when I’m gone. Please keep watching over Alterna. Please help whatever next intelligent lifeform may occupy Earth. I wish we can go home together.
I’ll miss you,
Sumi"
^it's supposed to sort of parallel my neo 3's letters to orca. This is when alterna started getting desperate & sumi had the feeling they wouldn't last any longer so she wanted to make sure orca knew how she felt
It's not that big of a detail but I put "go home together" because someplace in Alterna theres a thing that says "go home together" and it stuck with me 💔
also sumi is short for sumireko .i named her after a touhou lol
And also also i like to think orca's main room or whatever is in Happiness Research Lab near the top of one of the sinking buildings. Idk. I love orca so much💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚💙💚
Also also also. Space odyssey reference in that second drawing he he he ha

[Alterna Statues] An idea I've had for a few days!
What are they?
Why do they exist?
These 'statues' are not really statues, technically they are the remains of a human, covered/replaced by the liquid crystals from the fake sky! Like fossils! But...more ominous.
The statues were created as a result of the failed rocket launch that ended most life in Alterna!
As we know, the energy from the rocket boosters overloaded the crystals causing a massive cave in and debris to rain down upon humanity.
The crystals themselves serve as a way to record and/or display human desires and memories(?).
So, in this idea, during the tragedy, crystals that fell onto people would sort of flash freeze them and envelope their entire bodies. Then, the liquid would solidify and absorb the person's memories, desires, personality, etc.
This whole process is the reason as to why EVERY single one of the currently found statues seems to be frozen in time, with a mortified expression in their faces, as if running away from their end. It effectively "kills" the person, but at the same time doesn't.
The body is dead but everything that made the person, themselves, that made them human, are all recorded in the crystals. The statues 'soul' is alive, but they aren't.
That person isn't a person anymore, they are the crystals resembling what they once were, unmoving, unable to express emotions.
It is unknown whether or not the effects can be reversed. Agent Neo 3.5, codenamed L1, an expert in the preservation of the mind/ anything human, HEAVILY PROHIBITS touching the statues with bare skin.
Current hypothesis for what might happen in this case are:
-The one that touched it will have everything the statue recorded transferred into their brain, most likely killing them from the overload of information in the process.
-Everything will transfer to the new host of the information, but it will most definitely cause some sort of identity crisis (or more) as the subject is unable to decide who they are due to having 2 extremely detailed and real lives in their brain. They would be more like 2 people in one body, fighting for control, an unperfect fusion.
-Crystals will spread immediately upon contact, flash freezing the subject too, and condemning them to live out eternity together with all the other statues.
Further analysis from the previously mentioned L1, proposes the possibility of transferring the information onto a digital medium. If such is true, then it might be possible to create a new body from DNA samples and dump all the information into it, as had already been done with her, reviving whoever the statues were.
Or perhaps not.
Research into this phenomena is still ongoing, and the possibility of giving whoever these eternal monoliths of sadness and despair were, a second chance at life, is still low.
Who knows how many still sit inside their dome shaped cage, forced to never be able to see the blue sky, buried beneath tones of debris and water? Hundreds? Thousands?
We do not know.
All that we do know is that our Agents, along with some outside help from a certain octoling engineer/idol are doing their utmost to research this phenomena and crack the code to it's inner workings.
More updates on said research will be given out.... whenever I want to write.
END OF LOG 1.
THANK YOU FOR READING! :D
[Little thing! "L1" is a short, kinda acronym version of "Last One" . This is used to refer to my oc Violet L. Alterna ('octoling' in the picture) whose backstory involves her cloning her own mind and Orca inserting it into a new body thousands of years later.]
