We’re really proud of the animation team, so here’s Elliot, our lead animator, giving a quick look at our animation process. Let us know if you’d like to hear more behind-the-scenes insights from other parts of our team!

A little late to the New Year, but we wanted to say thanks. We’re really proud of what the team pulled off last year and excited for what’s coming next. Happy 2026! Demo planned for the first half of the year. #indiedev #gamedev

A little late to the punch, but here’s IGN talking about our game after our last showcase, it’s always cool to see stuff like this :)

Apropos of absolutely nothing: a collection of recent concepts from our human artists!

Hi everyone, I'm Emil, the new Community Manager at Hip Flask Games. I'll be here answering questions, gathering feedback and sharing updates on The Bureau of Fantastical & Arcane Affairs.🙂 Most of the time it'll be me replying, sometimes Sam, but it's always one of us.

Who's ready for a 25 minute devlog! I'm hoping you are! www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFel...

Check out the brand new trailer for our game: The Bureau of Fantastical and Arcane Affairs🐉

Random, but it's always so cool to see our logo in these lists :) Showcase tomorrow!! @galaxiesshow.com

New trailer next week :) @galaxiesshow.com

Things have been slow on our marketing front, but I think this next trailer is really something fun, can't wait to show it to y'all.

Because our game is relatively large in terms of content, we use a good number of assets. Here's a peek at how we are adjusting those to better fit our world :)

Do you like cute sentient mushrooms? Of course you do. Here's some cute sentient mushroom concepts by our artist: @erinmchughart.bsky.social

Small bit of early grey-boxing today

6/23-29/25- more cutscene illustrations for @hipflask.games 's Bureau of Fantastic and Arcane Affairs

Hi! Idk what happened, but we’ve had a bunch of new followers lately soooo welcome, friends! 👋 We’re making a game about being a bureaucrat in a fantasy world. Hopefully, that sounds groovy to you. And uh, if not, then hopefully you'll stick around for our cool game dev updates and/or sharp wit.

I present to you a very early WIP of our menu and of course a lil video showcasing the logic behind it.

Red alert! Video of me following around a skeleton with a clipboard has just come out!

Who among us doesn't love a good game soundtrack?

Please be quiet, our dragon is sleeping.

Thanks y'all!

I bring to you a video that showcases our 3rd-person accessibility feature.

Thank you, everyone :)

Heard that there was some concern that our game, the BFAA would utilize AI. I am proud to say that is 100% NOT the case. This game is being created by real people with real passion. Our 100+ characters will be voiced and written by living, breathing, people. #supportindies

Here's a link to the trailer for you lovely folks. Thank you to @futuregamesshow.bsky.social for having us :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=UP3P...
