Here's the very first trailer we released for Blade Kitten, which we used to promote it to media and publishers at GDC 2009. We were going to publish it ourselves on PlayStation but Atari picked it up, and we ended up on Xbox and PC as well a year later.

Cool huh?

Here's a little Asteroids-like shooter I was experimenting with a few years back.

Blade Kitten: MOBI.

There's not much to it as it's really just a stream of unfinished ideas. But it's still pretty fun to fly around and shoot stuff.

Back in 2010, we had a limited run of figurines made. 50 all up, which we sold on the Krome website the day the game released. They sold out in a couple of hours.

One day, I'd love to get an articulated one produced.

I'm going to drop some alphas of some of the BK games I've experimented with over the years here over the next week, as well as some cool deals on the comics and the game.

Prepare thyself.

Cover cat-girl.

Getting on the relaunch #1 of Gamefan was a highlight for me. Gamefan and EGM were my two go-to mags in the SNES/Megadrive era to scour the images of Japanese games.

I'm experimenting with various layout designs for my dialogs. My current fave is this one which uses the cute little Greley head for the cursor. I'm thinking of having various heads to use as emojis to represent the text. It'll look super cute.

I like drawing cute chibi versions of the characters as much as I like designing costumes. So yes, I do them a lot 😊 I have a huge print of this as the first thing you see when you enter my front door.

As proud as I am of what we did in the game, I'm still bummed that I didn't get to have the original idea that the levels were all separate "2D dungeons" that you found as you flew around the overworld on a GT.

This was my first "list" of potential costumes for Kit in the game. We did get most of them in the game which makes me pretty happy.

Anyone have a favorite from this list?

ME: Maybe I should draw fewer Kit costumes?

NARRATOR: He did not, in fact, draw fewer Kit costumes.

The very first version of the BK comic was more outland sci-fi with a group of farmers being attacked by Darque and Kit saves them. I decided to drop us into Kit in a fight instead.

These characters are now getting used in Gunwale 20+ years later. Reuse/recycle 😊
