Color scheme for my creature capture/monster battler chosen! Yes, watercolors!! I would like the game to have a watercolor-inspired style, so it makes sense to do predev art in that medium. #Art #GameDev

Brainstorming a color palette for the creature capture. A limited palette will give the designs more cohesion and unity, and squarely plant them all together.

Today is the first day of Black History Month. Keith Porter Jr, father of two, should still be alive. #BLM

Happy Black History Month, y'all

The obvious question about the "AI" services being offered but no one is willing to broach is very simple: If you made a machine that prints money, why are you letting anyone else use it? Rainmakers, every last one of them.

Yeah, that's a load-bearing "could" there. This is little better than the model they trained on recreating Quake. There's no intent, and as a result no cohesion. There's also no code, so what exactly are they even creating here? The experience can't be replicated, it's just a fuck-around demo.

Oh well. We're never going public btw. The stock market is just gambling with extra steps and that's not even the purpose of this company. The primary purpose of this company is to make art and tell stories, making money comes AFTER THAT. We're better than them, so we must BE better than them.

@kombuchabun.bsky.social So, the company is officially registered with the state as an LLC. My first game is currently in development, a survival horror (I LOVE HORROR). The second game, in predevelopment, is a direct Pokemon competitor.

Fat chance! I'm anything if not stubborn and persistent! >:3

Not only is this a blatant lie, as it's fundamentally not how gen AI works, this still does not make the use of AI ethical. There are no ethical uses for gen AI. Yes, you can have it output based on limited data, but it still needed to be trained on piles of stolen material, plus tons of pollution.

Ended up removing my email from the website because I keep getting unsolicited messages for BS services. :V

One thing I can say is I think I'll avoid climb and jump be the same button, especially on keyboard. There are so many times I've died, because the game thought I wanted to slowly climb up a mild ledge, when really I'm trying to jump out of danger.

I enjoy that my hours on record for Cyberpunk 2077 and Fallout 4 become a celebration of one and a huge criticism of the other. 1,012 hours vs 58. Anywho, where my chooms at?

Merry Christmas! 🎄

Big announcement coming Winter of 2026, with a new and true Pokémon competitor. Waiting for concept art to finish processing with the US Copyright Office. Fitting, since it'll be 2 years of predevelopment. #GameDev

i predict that as we go into the next year, we'll start to see pretty sizable schisms emerge among gamers over which games have used genAI in their development

Actually incredible!

I saw "Europeans," "Egyptian artifacts," w paint swatches and KNEW INSTANTLY where this was going. The pigment is supposed to be renowned for its fugitive nature, which like, yeah. It's a really unsettling fact to keep in mind that when you see some paintings, you're also looking at human remains.

Been working concept doodles of BFS's mascot! He's just a lil guy. #GameDev #Art #FurryArt

This week in gaming CEOs:

"eVeRyOnE eLsE iS dOiNg..." Speak for yourself. I'm over here designing my work with paper, pencils, pens, paint. People don't want to buy licenses for products they consume, they want to buy art they can play with. #GameDev

!!! 🎊 I realized, since I have my own domain now, I can update my bsky handle. Ooooh, fancy. ^^ #GameDev

Pencil thumbs, doodles, and sketches for the logo and mascot! Traditional media is bae! My mascot is gonna be a tiny buddy, a lil guy. _^..^_ #GameDev #Art

I need to work on a company mascot too! Will be cat-based, because the future is cat-based! _^..^_ #GameDev

🤢🤢🤢

Woo! We officially have our domain and website now! It's simple, but sometimes that's what ya need! www.brokenfangstudio.com

I got my first spam email for the company. And NO THANK YOU. When I can actually get to the honor of having employees, I'm not "outsourcing HR and payroll." The game industry is broken. The art industry is broken. And I refuse to fall into the same corpo bullshit that ruins them. #GameDev

So, next step to getting set up on Steam is opening a bank account for the company. @_@

First batch of concept illustrations filed with the copyright office! I'll be able to share my monsters and reveal the game name SOON! 👀 #GameDev

Working on the first batch of concept illustrations for my creature capture/monster battler for copyright submission! I want the added protection of copyrighting my designs BEFORE release. #GameDev We can't let Nintendo and Pocket Pair have all the fun, can we?

🎉🎊 I am proud and excited to announce that Broken Fang Studio is OFFICIALLY an LLC NOW! 🎊🎉 There is work to do! #GameDev

My state's corporations department STILL mailed my husband at our previous address, even after I sent them a letter telling them to fix the issue. So I tracked down the emails of the Secretary of State, as well as the Deputy, and included them in a complaint. I'm sure they'll LOVE being bothered.

Someone I was friends with over a decade ago found me on one of my art accounts. Apparently they've started a company too, and sent me a DM with their Telegram to "discuss business." Then I see all their recent avatars are AI gen'd. So I blocked him.

I'm deleting share holders. That's why I'm forming BFS as an LLC. I am the sole owner, and creative directions for an artistic medium will be made by an artist. Eventually, I want artist to be plural! ❤️

Oomph! FINALLY figured out a solution to the "dancing trees" bug for Simple Wind in UE5. I had to go into each material instance for each tree, set Wind to Animate Foliage (on), then check off the second checkbox for the same setting. :V #GameDev It took hours to figure this out. :V

•Every $1 per hour increase in minimum wage corresponds to a 1% decrease in suicide rates Blocking these common sense policies to protect 800 billionaires isn’t just fiscally dumb—it’s literally killing us by the hundreds of thousands 2/2

To recap: •Universal healthcare would save 68,000 lives & $450B annually •Every $1 spent on SNAP results in $1.80 boost to local economies & small businesses •The child tax credit decreased child poverty to a historic low of 5.2%, abolishing it increased it by 45% 1/2

Screen shot of level design from UE5. Getting the terrain correct, before adding trees, and other actors. #GameDev

This account is changing purposes, as Broken Fang Studio is in the process of becoming an LLC, and will, for the time being, be solely focused on #GameDev
