Am proud to say I had a hand in the latest update of The Smoke Room by designing the new UI!
#TSRvn
My goal in the design was to balance readability along with extending the setting and themes of TSR. (and the style of those awesome CG promos)
I hope players enjoy the new look!
The newest build of The Smoke Room (Cliff) has been released for patrons along with a brand new UI to go with it! Due to some labeling issues, previous saves will not be compatible, thus feel free to use the skip function. Patreon post here:
It's been a long time coming, but I've got own OC!
I've been working on this it with
@Ralefov
over the past few months, so I hope you all like him— I think he's really cute!
Hey all!
I'm a bit late (because I was working on hot fixes all day), but my latest game is out!
I've been working on Astatos on the side for about 1 year and I did production management, design, UI, code, localisation work, some writing on this one!
So tired!
For the Axel plush, I took a day trip to Mount Kosciuszko. The photos are about 15km away from the top of Australia. It was a beautiful day, although I was freezing my fingers off!
It's also the first major release I've shot with my new Sony camera. (My 650D was 10+ years old!)
Axel is here to warm up your day!

I’ll be co-hosting a VN creation panel with
@jerichuwu
at MFF this year!
It’ll be my first time doing something like this on stage, but please come along if you’re at the convention.
Announcement: I will be hosting a panel at this years Midwest Furfest! Both myself and my cohost
@compymono
will be discussing our experiences with Visual Novel development, pros and cons, and general advice for would-be VN creators!
Hope to see you there!

Come meet me at MFF, grab some merch, and a card from me at the Pawprint Press booth if you ask nicely!
My gorgeous badge commission is from

(I was so busy with the booth today I didn't get a chance to post until now!)
Fun fact: I did the photography for this at Sea Cliff Bridge, a place often seen in car commercials. The bridge itself has the more impressive view, but I'd actually get run over by a real car up there. 😅
@Radcanine
This was the mood I had when my mum walked in on my 6 foot furry body pillow for work and I had to explain why people would buy them. I got it past her but then she told the family about it on Boxing Day lunch...
We’ve taken a look at where the game is, what we need to do to finish it, and how our team can make the best game we can. Today, we’re making the decision to push back the release date of Nekojishi: Lin & Partners into 2022.
See our full blog for details:
DOGXBLOODS now has a English version for chapter 1!
I contributed to the localisation of the intro to the story so be sure to give it a try if you can get it running.
Feel the calm of the forest with Ranok, Vulgar, and Verissa by your side.

Thanks to everyone who came by the visual novel creation panel that Jericho invited me to co-host on!
I'm really glad that people found us interesting to listen to! I believe a recording should be posted later after the convention too for those who couldn't make it.
Thank you all for coming to the panel tonight, it was a wonderful experience meeting everyone! And thank you
@compymono
for hosting with me, couldn't have done it without you 💙
-Jericho
Had this update in the planning since July, really happy to have finally got it out of the way since it was weighing down hard on me.
Hopefully this opens the door to being a bit more free with what we get to show even if it’s a little rough.
Lyall Reed is here to guard you... if you'll have him.

Includes a detailed stitched undershirt, and plush Dragon Apricot that can be magnetically held by both arms. At 12" tall, Lyall will defend your honour with pride!

@FruitzJam
at the time and one of the photos I sent looked like a page from his Nekojishi doujin so I tried to replicate it a bit closer and voila.
The Likulau Plush is now back in stock!

It felt really important that our games have a cool vocal theme song after Nekojishi, so I’m really happy I was able to pull it off for Astatos.
A sort of tradition that I’d like to keep if I can.
Kibbleton U is now public on itch!
This is the AU build of Where the Demon Lurks we made for April fools. I worked on story editing + some graphic design for the logo and banners. (18+ Only!)
@SunsetSilvally
The claims made by the person who posted that isn't true at all. We have always paid everyone involved and make every effort we can to do things right. We tried our best to clear this up officially but there's only so much we can say as a company.
The main stock of the Likulau plush is now sold out!
Pre-orders for the second batch arriving in about a month are now available from . Go give Kulau a hug today!

I apologise for the time it took us to put this together, but I hope this should clear pretty much everything up online. It's been a rough few days but I hope to be able to get back to normal soon. (Thank you so much to all the friends who have reached out to me 👏👏👏)

Finally got a chance to lie down after the game release. Feeling a bit better now. Was up for over an entire day just making sure everything was ready then fixing bugs for the next 12 hours after.
It’s been a lot of work to get this out but Nekojishi has finally been updated with all the script changes I’ve been working on since release! Hope everyone enjoys the update and be sure to let me know if you catch any mistakes that slipped past my edits! 😅

A cool feature I implemented during the last two days! Still getting the hang around improving the model details, but pretty happy with how Sam and Munch have turned out so far.
Going to work on adding models for our other plush over the next few weeks.
We've added something cool to the Pawprint Press site! You can now view 3D models on select products such as the newly released Samuel Plush.

One thing I’ve learnt over the past few years of game dev and community management is you can’t let what people say get to you or change who you are.
Work to prove yourself to yourself not anybody else.
I’ve seen a few stories like this go around so this has been in my mind. 👏
Btw I made an account on yipnyap!
My buddy
@itsrekki
has been working on it for ages and I think it deserves some love with the uncertainty around Twitter atm.
If you ever see me overwhelmingly glad that a contractor / artist has given me assets in a timeframe when I need it this is basically why.
Its really hard to find artists who have the skills and professionalism to work in a production so I really appreciate it when one comes by.
The furry commission artist community has a serious, rampant problem of lack of professionalism and scammy behavior. I am so tired of seeing people get fucked over by furry artists who don't know how to manage their schedule. (1/?)
Alright, just finished all the announcements. Here’s the thing I’ve secretly been working on for the past few months! I worked hard on trying to up the quality while writing the English translation so I hope people like it. 😅
We're pleased to announce a fully-fledged DLC expansion pack for Nekojishi - A Sunny Day, Nekojishi Voice Pack - Chinese, and full Japanese (日本語) language support for Nekojishi all available RIGHT NOW on Steam.
The Sam plush is finally out! This one has been in the works for over a year behind the scenes!
I'm really happy with how the photography, and page design turned out. (Especially since I was working on it through Christmas and then getting covid)
The Samuel Plush is at your service!

Was a bit too much to coordinate translation to every language immediately so be on the lookout for those sometime in the next day or two. (I don’t want to put that pressure on our team members again) Also please give the update a read and let us know how to improve. 👏
Based on the feedback from our previous statement and AMA we would like to give you all an update on the steps we’ve been taking. We would like to share these with you here:
If you have any questions, we will answer them in an AMA below.
So guess as of today I’m helping run the social media and email accounts for the nekojishi team. We’re hoping to be much more responsive and interactive with the community with some more hands on deck.
Also proofreading for the next update is coming along smoothly!
Today we’re officially seeing off our Concept Art Director,
@Cheetah_Paws
, as he takes the next step in his career. We are super thankful for work he’s done with us and we look forward to seeing the results of his future pursuits.
Full statement here:
@venkpng
The designs for the posters were all so good it was tough picking which ones to include! I'm glad all the prints and stickers came out really good though.
I saw so many people squeak in delight at the stickers while working at the booth haha
Check out the new scents based off the characters from The Smoke Room!
@BigHufferPuffer
did a great job on the label design, plus I helped with a teeny bit of graphic design assistance too.
aaa so many all nighters, time to sleep for a bit.
Happy to have finally overcome some big obstacles with putting this patch together. Was a bit of a rollercoaster to work on. (plus my first time writing so much original dialogue)
Astatos v0.5 is now live!

This update has been one of our biggest yet.
