I'm having a ton of fun with @minodev.bsky.social 's Rabbit & Steel this morning, it's a beautifully designed game with tons of charm and it's giving me a lot of inspiration

We don't have merch plans at this time but if we ever do I can only hope it comes out as cute as this

The community members are coming up with fan Movesets and I must unfortunately report that they're funnier than mine

based

Pleased to report that our debugging efforts are going very well

Check out that bomb-ass :traitorsmug: fanart from our community Discord member Artennas that immediately became a server sticker

Potato is just a sweet, little guy.

Listening to the Dustforce OST for the first time in a while and everything's clicking into place this morning

Alright folks, it's been over a month, time to share some development snippets again! Check out this sick-ass concept art by @koboldfactory.bsky.social for Just Beachy, the in-game location we're working on right now :]

Small little warm up doodle batch just to get a feel for drawin' these two for somethin else :-] #blanksword #arcturusart

remember back when we all doodled the current thing for warmups? we could bring that back, maybe, that was fun

BLANKSWORD MY BELOVED ♥️

Blanksword spotted in the eurothug4000 upcoming games montage, is this what Hercules felt like when he ate the apple of the Gods

Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator is right near the top of Steam's popular upcoming! And it comes out in 7 hours! Hell yeah!! store.steampowered.com/app/3642000/...

Ranking Cords and Wires Based On Edibility

Detective Hole

Happy large boulder the size of a small boulder day for all who celebrate

I love him

Small, free act you can do to bring some good in this world: add positive reviews to ALL you Steam games, especially the small indies. You don't need to write anything smart, just "game good" is enough. Every positive steam review tips the algorithm and helps your fav artists get more sales

There's a video out there of ice lynching a man. Don't watch it. It will not help you or others to traumatize yourself. Spend the time you would have spent watching it/wanting to vomit and scream making a donation to somewhere in Minnesota, or if you can't, researching where you can help locally.

Breaking out of the Funny Video Game Persona for a minute, all my thoughts go to the brave folks in Minnesota and everywhere else literally risking their lives and losing their loved ones standing up to fascism. Please send love to Tara and anyone else you know that's Going Through It right now. 💜

We just added the following credits to our Steam Demo that we just realized were missing (this is what happens when deadline pressure Gets You) - sorry for forgetting you @jujuadams.com , @offalynne and @somepx.com , and thank you so much for making these life-saving Gamemaker tools!

Designing production schedules in game dev (look I have been both Toad and Frog over the years ok)

ngl this pitch is hard to resist

The fanarts keep coming and they keep kicking ass, thank you Blender

I'm willing to believe it

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights

Just posted a little Kickstarter update for the new year :] www.kickstarter.com/projects/283...

Our team member @mibyle.bsky.social (who provided us with precious marketing supervision earlier in development and more recently switched to programming) just made a really cute little frog-themed picrew on Itch! I made some audio for it too...

Top of the charts at my house today

I'm sorry for all of you that have no idea what this entire thing is about but I have to share it for those of you that do

this thread is a wonderful insight into music composition gigs with some great advice for aspiring composers, but also for literally any other field that has networking as well!! so many fields/communities work better for you when you spend your energy making real connections #centicat 1/3

The Blanksword inbox received its first "Hire me to make music on your game" of 2026 (and surely not the last) - I decided to share my reply as an opportunity to talk about what it's like to look for work as a games composer, from the perspective of someone that's both a composer and a game dev 🧵

I’m so glad my plush endeavors could help inspire this thing

Thanks Castpixel

Thank you, community member adairtrashart, for providing our discord server with our dankest sticker to date

You know the field you're working on is in good hands when "burn out is good, actually" is just one (1) of the several unhinged public CEO takes that started discourse in 2026, which has been going on for (checks calendar) 14 days

Starting this new year of Blanksword development right

Love conquers all 💗

I'm still on the hunt for freelance or full time work in community, production or operations! Drop me a DM or my email address is in the image. Shares greatly appreciated, thanks!

Cool italian article about upcoming games that mentions Blanksword, thanks for giving us a shoutout!! www.artribune.com/progettazion...

In an era where support for trans rights and LGBTQ+ in general was more tepid and understated, because people were afraid to upset bigots, GDQ decided they were going to be loudly, unapologetically inclusive. The result is one of the greatest communities in video games.
