Last day of the jam and we’re on to playtesting, smoothing out any issues+ working on the itch page. Feels good to have had time to do that properly, these shorter jam are usually a bit of a rush. #gamejam #1bit #gamedev #vampirebat

Finished all the backgrounds for Midnight Blood Drive, it’s tricky to do clouds in 1bit. #1bit #gamedev #gamejam #nightsky #moon

Currently working illustrations for very simple story for our game Midnight Blood Drive, nursing your sister back to health (your sister is a vampire bat and you need to bring her blood) #1bit #gamejam #gamedev #vampirebat #bat

We’re starting to put in final assets for the untitled Vampire Bat game, the programmer really cooked with this shader. It definitely took some trial and error with dark mode but we’re in a great spot with four days left 💪 #1bit #gamejam #vampirebat #gameart

Next up for the vampire bat game: a bat slash for collecting blood. We also decided to change up the flight mechanic into a single flap triggered by the space bar. #gamedev #1bit #vampirebat #gameart #gamejam

Next step on the vampire bat game: Our programmer created a building editor so I mocked up some quick assets to test out how how the 9-slicing works with the 1bit style. It’s working pretty well, just have to polish these and make a bunch of variations. #1bit #gamedev #gamejam #gameart #vampirebat

Now to make our little vampire bat player fly. The fun thing about using a very dark red as a colour is that it looks black here, but red when I use it to fill the background in. You have to be really intentional with colour choice in 1bit. #vampirebat #gamejam #1bit #gamedev

Player Sprite design for our vampire bat game, the tricky thing will be making sure they stand out against the background so I may have to remove the wing dithering. #gamedev #1bit #gamejam #vampirebat

It’s a lovely feeling when the Game Jam theme perfectly goes with your concept. B1T Jam just announced Sleep as the theme, and my team was planning on making a game about a vampire bat drinking blood from sleeping villagers. No frantic reworking necessary! #b1tjam #gamejam

AAA @tricketcat.bsky.social thank you for the beautiful beautiful humanoid art of my villainous demon boi! You COOKED with the zoot suit inspired fashion and captured his aura immaculately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #artfight #artfight2026

Grayscale 2D digital art of a foreboding, well-dressed, and handsome villainous man. with slender features. Darkened sockets obscure his eyes. On his white dress shirt is a pattern of many red eyes, with each eye staring directly at the sinister man or the viewer. The clasps of his suspenders are eyes like red gemstones. He is caught or suspended in strands of red string, akin to puppet strings or thick spiderwebs.

The World and The Moon tarot cards I illustrated for Cupid’s Bargain (miseri-accordion.itch.io/cupids-bargain). There were so many talented people working on this game, it’s well worth checking out if otome visual novels are your jam. #otomegame #tarotcards #otomejam #cupidsbargain #tarotart

The wizard frog rhythm game I’ve been working on is released! It was a fun project and you can play it for free here romainvause.itch.io/swamp-songs In this game you punch holes to play a player-piano style music box. #1bitart #gamedev #gameart #rhythmgame #frog

Player sprites for a 1bit rhythm game I’m working on with a small team. In the game you’re a frog wizard programming punching holes in a sheet of paper for a player piano/music box. #gamedev #1bit #gameart #frog

I had a bunch of goofy frog illustrations from a sticker pack I designed a few years ago and thought it would be fun to try animating them a little. Will you enter the frogzone? #weirdcore #frogs #frogart

Adding a #boxfish to my #watercolour aquarium. The nice thing about it being a watercolour aquarium is I don’t have to worry about the rest of the fish dying .

I was looking at some of my old mixed media #watercolour work and found this Mimic Octopus with a pretty judgmental looking nautilus in the background.
