i know there's a lot of games to play right now, but if you've ever thought "i wish there was a card-driven RPG with fantastic art and voices, that mixed the episodic nature of Star Trek with Gundam-esque mecha" then congrats, they made that. it's Battle Suit Aces. it's out today.

Captain Heathcliff has shiny black hair and a thin mustache and goatee. His baseball-style t-shirt is cut open at the neckline, revealing a bit of his chest. He wears glasses. His hand is on his hip. The text reads "1 day until launch. Battle Suit Aces. October 7th, 2025."

One of the most useful tools we built to manage the massive number of illustrations in Battle Suit Aces was the art production sheet.

We update it from the editor so we have in-game usage info and it pulls thumbnails from git. And then direction notes and progress tracking happens here.

have you all seen Brigid today? now you have 😺🤖

super proud of our game within a game (within a game??) that happens when you're in the starball arc of battle suit aces and you're playing a ballgame in the form of a card battle with mechs in a vibrant narrative visual novel with rich characters

In response to the blatant corruption in our country, I felt inspired to create a new enemy called a capitalist creature. They carry briefcases and throw bills that do 1 damage to the player.
