Don't Starve Influence

I am admittedly kind of a noob at this, but if you enjoy my humble work, any donations are greatly appreciated: https://ko-fi.com/insult_to_ninjary

Your generosity helps me stay motivated to keep improving and to keep trying new things!

A while back I came across a few Don't Starve LoRAs, but they all seemed to be based off of character art. I started wondering what a LoRA would look like if it was based more off of gameplay-style art instead. And thus this LoRA was born!

When generating characters, you'll get some interesting results. You can definitely see an influence from the game's art style creeping into the pictures, but the way it manifests itself is a bit unexpected and surprising, at least for me. Characters won't really look like Don't Starve characters, yet they still retain the style of art that you'd see during gameplay, if that makes any sense. It's kind of hard to explain, but even if your results don't always scream "Don't Starve," you'll still get some cool-looking stuff!

Landscapes generate a bit more as you'd expect, provided that your prompts don't stray too far away from the types of settings you might see in the game. If you prompt for stuff that's pretty far outside of what was in the training images, your pictures won't come out bad, but you'll definitely have trouble holding onto the desired art style.

Here are some other usage tips for the LoRA:

1. I'm guessing it won't work too well with realistic base models, but you can try! Anime/cartoon models should work fine tho.

2. If you're frequently getting a small character, no character, and/or bad anatomy, you can try gradually lowering the weight of the LoRA.

3. Use a VAE, especially if your chosen base model doesn't have one baked in! It really seems to help with getting better colors and anatomy.

4. Upscale or use Hires. fix with a quality upscaler. If Hires. fix seems to be destroying your images, try lowering the denoising strength.

If you make anything awesome, please consider posting them to the gallery! That goes for all of my LoRAs! I really like seeing what kind of stuff you all are able to make!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! I will try my best to help! Also, if you have any ideas for future LoRAs, please don't hesitate to share them with me!
