YHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I cannot contain my EXCITEMENT for this day of launch, where the first Bru & Boegie game gets released to the public!  This year has been one of learning, and somehow… here we are! From a little brain-spark last year based on characters I’ve been drawing and animating for over 20 years, to a game for sale on Steam. Ma bru – what a ✨thing!✨. Here’s some early sketches of the game from way back when: Was running through the final release PC, Mac and Linux builds on Monday night to do final checks that v1.25 all works fine (it does, at least I couldn’t find any issues and the builds have been through many iterations by this point. I ran through the game in Chinese too.) Using the Steam Deck, the game looks so vibrant. My olde iPhone 11 doesn’t really do it justice, but it looked rad: If you play the game, thank…

I can SMELL da MILK The game is imminently launching next week Wednesday! I can hardly believe the time has almost arrived to unleash these 2 underpanted bald children onto an unsuspecting public. It’s been a rewarding journey of learning to get to this point, and I’m thrilled that it’s almost over the finish line and into an audience’s mouse-clicking paws. Bru & Boegie: Episode 1 Steam NextFest Summary Steam NextFest recently ended, and Bru & Boegie: Episode 1 – Get da MILK! took part in it. The game performed well; it got a bunch of new wishlists and new eyes on the game, and it’s somehow broken into the SteamDB charts with its wishlist activity. I discovered a service called RoboStreamer that let me stream a looping broadcast of playthrough videos that myself and 3 others (with their permission) had made, to the game’s page for a couple of…

I’m pleased to announce that Bru & Boegie: Episode 1 – Get da MILK! is taking part in Steam NextFest, it started yesterday and runs until 20th October, 2025. Hopefully the demo will get into the hands of a bunch more players, because the full game is launching SOON – 29th October! 🤩🥳🙌 I have a looping stream to the Steam Store page of video playthroughs from me, GrayStillPlays and Yippee Ki Yay Mr Falcon (with kind permission from both of them). Here’s my playthrough! Steam Deck Kiff Very pleased to report that Episode 1 on Steam works super well on the Steam Deck without any fiddling. Looks super vibrant too. Here’s Bru speaking Chinese, because the game now has a Simplified Chinese translation – kiff! Or should I say – 酷。 NAG Mag Interview NAG (New Age Gaming) Magazine – a South African magazine I used to collect when I was a kid – was kind enough to interview me recently about the game!…

I recently took part in the annual SA Game Jam 2025, organised by Free Lives. It was either a 72-hour or 48-hour affair, starting on Friday 19th September and finishing on Monday 22nd September. I wasn’t really planning to take part as I had a fairly busy weekend lined up, but started messing around on Saturday – a 2-frame walk cycle turned into a 4-frame walk cycle which turned into an 8-frame walk cycle… I didn’t work on Sunday, and finished the game on Monday. To my absolute delight, I had something I was pretty proud of! MONS – a short interactive experience in which I got to experiment with Unity’s pixel perfect camera for the olde 8bit retro look, harnessed the power of prefabs, and a little story to go along with it. You’re a Kaiju, and you forgot your car keys back up on land from the last…

Dear peoples of the world. Please join me in this rather plump update. We’re almost 3/4 of the way through 2025 but this will suffice as a mid-2025 update. Bru & Boegie: METEORITE My latest animated Bru & Boegie adventure is finally finished! I started writing it 5 years ago in 2020 thanks to some development funding from NFVF, then it took a couple years to get production funding from NFVF, and in this year 2025 it is completed! By the time I was finished with the animatic the length of the short film ran 20 minutes, but I whittled it down to a neat 10-minute short – unfortunately leaving quite a lot of cool stuff on the cutting-room floor but it was already a pretty ambitious project. I animated the whole thing myself in TVPaint, Mind’s Eye Creative kindly helped me with the admin side of things, and a…

I’m thrilled to announce the follow-up to Bru & Boegie: Episode 1 – Get da MILK! In this comedy point-and-click adventure, Bru is tasked with getting SUGAR for his coffee, but someone or something is stealing all of Earth’s sugar. It’s up to YOU to figure out what the big conspiracy is, save Earth, and with any luck, get some SUGAR for your coffee. The adventure takes Bru all over the place – more locations in KiffTown and beyond, and he even goes to space. Wild. The game can be Wishlisted on Steam!  If you’re on Steam, please do so – it’ll help give the game more visibility when the demo and game eventually release, and you’ll be notified when each drops. Thanks! The background Unbeknownst to most, I’ve been beavering away at the second game, which follows directly from Episode 1. I wanted to get the Steam page ready so people…
