Tomorrow is the sweet day for Saccharine's release.

Cat is out of the bag. I am back and revamping a lot of the lighting on these levels to begin with. Can't wait for you all to see what I've been helping out with.

Yo folks! @vexonia.bsky.social is back at Waffle Iron Studios after a couple year hiatus. She will be helping us finish Episode 2 in sound design and level design (mainly enhancing the lighting and sound environments and balancing). Welcome back Vexonia!

Set your clocks. In time for the holiday season, Saccharine 2.0 comes to itch.io and Steam on November 12th, 2025. #indiedev #holidays #retrofps #vectorart

Hello folks, Sanya here, lead dev and fork maintainer for Griddle, our inhouse fork for our games. In light of recent happenings with GZDoom, we will be basing upstream using UZDoom and not GZDoom.

Hi I am no longer going to contribute or support GZDoom

For one of @reload-magazine.net's Game Jams we put out a little freeware demo called Saccharine. By 2023's end we had amassed six levels and people really liked it. By the end of 2025, it's going to be even better. It's coming to Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/3936330/...

Environmental detailing for some of @sanyawaffles.waffleironstudios.com 's levels for Project Absentia :D (well, just one here). feels really good to be back into the groove.

While we finish up work on Project Absentia, we have another special announcement. A side project in the world of Project Absentia is in alpha production state. Meet Sasha Kamen, an agent of anarchy, as he takes on a crazed General threatening the world with Armageddon.

Gonna make some announcements soon about PA and another side project in the PA universe! Stay tuned.

"Feelin' cute. Might firebomb the Orkans later." Drawn in Adobe Animate 20whatever version I am locked into. Wanted to draw Abby being the cute gremlin she is. Also experimenting with slightly different eyelashes for her. Looks okay to me. #art #vector

Sup. We're Waffle Iron Studios - a collective working on cartoony yet violent games. Our first game is Project Absentia, an aerial fragfest where you play as Abby, an angel fighting heaven and hell (literally) to get her friends back. Episode 2 is currently in development. #indiefps #cartoony

Love villains with shit-eating toothy grins. Gotta be one of my favorite genders. #indieart #flashart #vectorart

Highlighting a friend of mine who hails from Brazil: Shoutout to my friend and colleague @velvetic.bsky.social, one of the musicians for Episode 2 of @waffleironstudios.bsky.social's game, Project Absentia.

Welcome people from Twitter. We'll be posting some updates soon. If video gets added, that'll help a lot. In the meantime have a WIP of one of the maps for later Episode 2 of Project Absentia! #indiefps #indiedev #doombuilder

Breaking compatibility with stock GZDoom and Delta Touch but those were never 100% compatible or supported. Working on a new menu system for PA and Saccharine, based off of Age of Hell's menus (but different in some ways). #indiefps #projectabsentia #retrofps

Hello BlueSky. We're Waffle Iron Studios. We make games that invoke saturday morning cartoons with a more adult, violent vibe. Our main game is Project Absentia, which we are making with the help of our publisher Hellforge Studios (not on Bluesky yet) store.steampowered.com/app/1662010/...

For #screenshotsaturday have a WIP of the level @sanyawaffles.bsky.social is making for Project Absentia. It's a semi-abandoned soda factory in the outskirts of Hell with a twisted secret. Catch the Grungus.
