[My Carrd]
I'm an independent solo video game developer, cartoonist, and pixel artist, with a love for horror, fantasy, and making stories.
I specialize in pixel art games, some more retro looking than others, with a focus on horror but looking to branch out and try different things eventually.
If you'd like to see more of my work, like concept art, level design, game development blogs this is the place.
And if you like what I do you can support my work by buying a game or leaving a tip over Kofi ☕
Thanks for stopping by and happy gaming.
Please read under for more info about this blog, plus detailed content warnings, FAQ, etc.
Content Warnings
I primarily make horror content, which can include but is not limited to: Monsters, blood, various sharp weapons, slashers, character deaths.
I also touch on sensitive subjects: Stalking, characters with unhealthy obsessions, dubious morals, sadistic tendencies, etc.
Suggestive humor and topics. Nothing explicit nor pornographic, but definitely not suitable for all ages, suhc as: Nudity, sexual inuoendos, sex jokes, suggestive outfits.
I have a side account for Adult NSFW games, but those won't be discussed here and are exclusive to my mature blog.
That being said I kindly ask if you are a minor to please not interact with my games tagged as 18+, I know it's annoying, but this is for your safety and for adults safety, please respect adult spaces and stay safe out there. Once you turn 18 you are welcome in.
❓ FAQ
Can I draw fanart of (insert game character)?
Yes! I love seeing fanart, it brights up my day that anyone would spend their free time drawing a silly character I made for a silly game.
All I ask is please tag it accordingly, respect the character ages, if you draw horror tag it, and if the game is 18+ please be 18+ yourself.
Fanfics and Reader Inserts are also very cool, same guidelines as Fan art.
Can I repost your games to ...?
Please do not repost my games anywhere, you are free to share links that direct you to the game, but not upload the game itself. If you are interested in seeing the game uploaded somewhere, send me a message and I'll be happy to consider it.
Can I do edits/repost your art?
This one is complicated, I ask you do not repost or edit any art I do. However, I am ok with art present in the games to be reposted as long as there is a purpose behind it!
For example: A video edit of a character you really liked with some music. Videos dubbing comics. Gameplays. Etc.
Example of what not: A compilation of all of the cutscenes of a game in one big post.
Also, I don’t mind if you use art from the games as icons, banners, etc, but please give credit to the game and don’t claim it as your own.
What are your stance on generative AI/characters chat AI?
I kindly ask you do NOT feed any of my work to generative AI programs or websites, this also goes for chatbots of characters that show up in my games. No exceptions.
Can I sell fan merch of your games?
For now please refrain or ask me before selling anything related to my games.
I still don’t know if I’ll try to sell official merch in the future or not, it all depends how well the games do in the future, and I’m not very comfortable with the idea of strangers trying to profit out of a game I'm barely making any profit from currently.
The only people aside from me that I’m comfortable selling merch or stuff related to the game currently are close friends and only if they wish to do so.
how big of a game do you think bfhh is gonna be? do the love interests interact with each other at all, or just with the player? so excited to see where this game goes!!!
Ideally, I want the game to not be too big, then again it was supposed to be only one romantic interest and here we are now lol.
The love interests will interact with each other, they are connected to the same place that will be known in the demo, so you can say they already knew each other before MC showed up.
The way the game will work is with the demo as the introduction, there you get to pick which monster path you will follow, with each path having its own problems and smaller subplot, were as the MC, the player will still interact with the other 2 monsters but less.
Each path will have hopefully 3 endings at least, you give in, you get away, or you perish.
I really hope the game gets more traction once the demo is out, it's been fun working on it but I haven't had many reactions so far. Even so I'll probably have to take turns working on it and Catrina's Halloween Remake, which is what I was working on before my dog passed away and I needed a "less demanding" project to distract myself.
Bait for Hungry Hearts third and final of the romanceable monsters.
The Trickster. Real age unknown. Creature nature unknown, it's very close to technology and its body sparks with electricity.
The content of this game is for 18+ audiences due to its sensitive topics, fictional violence, and highly suggestive scenes and dialogue..

El Trickster. Edad verdadera desconocida. La naturaleza de la creatura es desconocida, es muy cercana a la tecnología y su cuerpo lanza chispas de electricidad.
Debido a los temas sensibles, violencia ficticia, diálogos y situaciones altamente sugestivas, el contenido de este juego es para mayores de 18+.
It is impressive how the room is in almost a perfect state aside from the thin layer of dust and occasional broken furniture, and trash that previous explorers left behind.
It's odd, the room is empty, but even so you can't shake the feeling that something is watching you, studying you, like standing in the middle of a big group, hundreds of eyes staring.

Important! The game does not contain explicit NSFW scenes, however, the content is intended for 18+ audiences due to its sensitive topics, fictional violence, and highly suggestive scenes and dialogue.

Es impresionante que la habitación se encuentre en casi perfecto estado, ignorando la delgada capa de polvo, uno que otro mueble roto y basura dejada atrás por otros exploradores.
Es extraño, la habitación está vacía y sin embargo no puedes sacudir la sensación de que algo te observa, analiza, es como estar parado en medio de un gran grupo, cientos de ojos observándote.
¡Importante! El juego no contiene escenas NSFW explícitas, sin embargo, debido a los temas sensibles, violencia ficticia y diálogos y situaciones altamente sugestivos, el contenido de este juego es para mayores de 18+.
I want to respect the poll results and keep the romanceable character designs secret, unfortunately the sneak peeks haven't managed to track in attention/interest to the game, and I am a bit worried that once I release the demo, it will go unnoticed and get buried under all the other VN that currently have way more attention :'D
I've also noticed most of visual novels of this type, show their characters to promote their games, and I want to be able to do that too.
So my proposal is to do a bit of a mix since I don't want to fail my word. I am thinking of posting the monsters and maybe human designs, but I will be tagging it all as "BFHH Spoilers", that way whoever wants to keep it as a surprise can, while I also try promote the game. I can only properly tag it here on Tumblr, so if you want to avoid spoilers I would not look at my Instagram, DeviantArt and Tiktok which are the other two websites I am more actively promoting the game (skiping Bluesky cause that's where it's doing worse).
That's all for now, hopefully soon I'll have bigger updates on the game development, and thank you to those who have shown their interest in this project :)
This TV looks out of place among the antique furniture, it doesn't feel like it belongs here.
The static is deafening, the screen too bright, and yet its light doesn't seem to reach far into the room.
You can swear there is a laugh below the constant noise...

La TV se ve fuera de lugar junto a los muebles antiguos, no se siente como que pertenezca al espacio.
La estática es ensordecedora, la pantalla demasiado brillante, y sin embargo, la luz no parece llegar lejos dentro de la habitación.
Puedes jurar que hay una risa bajo el ruido constante...

Keeping the monsters designs hidden until the first demo sucks, I am struggling having to keep em secret, I just love them so much I want to parade them all over my blog :(
