The Steam Next Fest is over. Our demo will be remaining up indefinitely, but we'd like to thank y'all for turning out over the past week anyway. This has been the best reception we've ever had for a demo, and we're extremely happy that it's been resonating with players.

Jenny the Witch is part of the 2026 winter Steam Next Fest, which (as far as I can tell) starts right now. We'd really appreciated if you checked out our demo and gave it a wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4180990/...

New patch is live for the Jenny the Witch demo. Quick patch notes: * Fixed an issue (hopefully) where the game's text would break on Spanish-language PCs * Improved the cancel state of all grounded attacks (made the default dash cancel kick in earlier) * Added some aim tracking to air Hand Cannon

Hey folks! New patch for the Jenny demo is live on Steam. We've fixed a few bugs and adjusted balance to favor attacking with Jenny's broom. Full patch notes in the replies!

The Jenny the Witch demo is out now on Steam. We hope you enjoy it.

The Jenny the Witch demo drops tomorrow. Check out these concept sketches of Jenny over the years. She's changed a lot! (although honestly less than you'd think)

It's the weekend again, and that means another #screenshotsaturday. Here's one of Jenny's super moves, Hex Configuration. It doesn't do a lot of damage, but it stuns every active enemy. Demo drops next Wednesday, btw. Get excited.

Late night #screenshotsaturday. New enemy. This one's charm point is that it's big as hell and it will not leave you alone.

I feel like I need to start reconnecting with fandom spaces for my own sanity the problem is that comes with the mortifying ordeal of being known

There's a new petition to get Adobe to reverse course on the plans to shut down Adobe Animate. Do what you can to save innumerable animation pipelines, folks. #animation #indieanimation #voiceacting #indiedev

In an effort to cut down on toxic apps I’ve added time limits to them on my phone but all that’s doing is making me more creative with how I spend time on my phone… currently I’ve downloaded letterboxd and I’m just writing reviews for every movie I’ve ever seen

Haven't done a #screenshotsaturday post in a while. Here's an enemy type returning from Steel Carnelian - enemies that shoot homing, parriable missiles. New to this game: Jenny parries by swinging her broom instead of using a parry button. Smack enemies and projectiles away at the same time!

Big announcement today: here's our next game, JENNY THE WITCH! This high-speed shoot-and-slasher will be out spring 2026, with a demo at the winter Next Fest in about a month. Wishlist here (please): store.steampowered.com/app/4180990/...

the first episode of STEEL CARNELIAN is out now! really tight run-n-gun shooter, it's as fun as it is funky i voice ROBIN KILBRIDE: your hard boiled person-in-the-chair! all my love to the catbirdsoft team for having me on board, and to @taschritter.bsky.social for directing me through it all

It was such a blast and privilege to draw the portraits for this! So here's Genevieve and Cass hanging out with Devi because I think it's very fun that Thunderstryke and Steel Carnelian BOTH have pilots from New Jersey. THE PILOT IS LIVE, GO PLAY STEEL CARNELIAN! 🤖

Trying to date in this day and age is so scary because what if they use AI unironically or are weird about basic human rights

I’m unfortunately back on my bullshit with starting new cosplays even though I still have unfinished ones begging me to complete them #kcd #kcd2

We're working on some not-very-screenshottable things right now (voiceline implementation, options menu stuff) so here's a quick render of our final enemy roster. Happy #screenshotsaturday to all who celebrate.

Watch out - just because a mech is partially disassembled doesn't mean its weapons systems aren't active. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Reminder that me and my cool friends and various other cool folks are in this so you owe it to me personally to play it when you can :)

steel carnelian coming pretty soon, a big bot blastin bonanza coming your way shortly. oh, 'when' you ask? hehehehe, A-HEE-HEE-HEEEhehehehe....stick around and find out.....😏 (i have No fucken clue)

Jared explains why it's okay to get weird: reload-magazine.net/articles/abs...

We're back with another enemy, the arachnoid PC-91 "Bagley." This bot isn't very tanky, but its huge angles of attack make it a high priority threat. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

We finished the last of our NPC models this week, so I put together a quick group shot to celebrate! #screenshotsaturday

Our indie game for 15 seconds!
