The Candy Update Hello and happy October, I had originally planned to have this update by the start of October but the Hawktober Horrors game jam had all of my attention. This is a minor update but a much requested one -> dreambonesgames.itch.io/jakeshallowe... #jakeshalloweennight #jhngame

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Still kinda empty but these are my 2 most "complete" rooms, Ive been drawing placeholders as fast as I can :'D Will likely submit the game on the very last day. I don't think I'll manage to get more than 3 sketchy cutscenes. On the bright side, the game can be played from start to finish #gamejam

I need to draw Dream with more memes to use as reactions.

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Another game with a Diner + Arcade? I bet no one saw that coming. Visuals not final Im using old assets to unify the scale and layout my levels so I can start programming, then I get to work on the visuals to my hearts content. Full dev process on Tumblr #hawktoberhorrors #gamejam #pixelart

We started another 2-Shot in Mothership, it's going great 👍 Vee (left) me. Anton (right) @popfizzles.bsky.social #mothership #ttrpg #ttrpgoc #moonbaseblues #objecthead

Vee (tv head on the left): "Please c'mon, I won't try punching anyone (again). I mean I only punched Anton"

Anton (human on the right): "You punched me?!"
*Trying to break free*

Vee: "Noooooo....? Me? I never punched you. That was them. What are you talking about?"

I need to make an announcement on Catrina's Halloween Nightmare soon, so I thought I might as well also work on a small patch update with Jake's Halloween Night while I'm at it. #catrinashalloweennightmare #jakeshalloweennight #chn #jhn #pixelart #halloween #rpghorror #indiedev

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Me constantly getting sidetracked and distracted doing random details while working on my tiles? More likely than you think #catrinashalloweennightmare #chn #jhn #pixelart #halloween #rpghorror

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Very small sneak peek. Today I put a good amount of work on Catrina's Halloween Nightmare Remake tiles, did I mention I am rebuilding Reid's house? 100% new + bigger layout. #pixelart #rpgm #indiedev #wip

Question was for Trickster on Tiking app. They all do have names aside from the nicknames I gave them, but I am saving that reveal for the Demo. #visualnovel #yandere #darkromance #yanderevn #monsterxhuman

Took a small break from Art Fight. I love the Intern silly face :) I was a lil bit confused about Dr. Harlow updated design until I realized he is a muntjac deer. I love it, it fits so well the "Nice looking but obviously lots of secrets" #roblox #robloxanimalhospital #drharlow

Roblox Animal Hospital game character, the Intern drawings.

Top left is a bust of the yellow version with the text "The horrors persist, but so do I".

Bottom left is the blue version sipping a cup of coffee while behind in the window an anomaly animal looks inside.

Right is pink version standing up with a crooked neck, holding a clipboard.

They take turns rotating in my brain, have a quick Trickster doodle as a treat, they've had the braincell since the weekend. I get so happy when people popup to say they are interested in my yandere monsters. #yandere #horrorgame #visualnovel #indiesev #monster

Digital drawing of “Trickster” from Bait for Hungry Hearts (OP dark romance visual novel).
It’s a yellow, looking fox with a fluffy tail wrapped around and on top of them.
They are watching an open laptop screen.

This year I'm very unprepared but I'll try my best Since I make primarily horror + suggestive content aimed for Adults, if you are under 18+ please do NOT interact with my characters! For this same reason I won't Attack anyone underage artfight.net/~DreamBones #artfight #artfight2026 #teamtragedy

Drew this at 2am cause insomnia hit, so you get poorly drawn Caine doodles. Should I draw more TADC? 🤔 #tadc #tadccaine #theamazingdigitalcircus

Various rough drawing studies of Caine from The Amazing Digital Circus.
Captions "Why he stands like that" "t-posing" "5 sec away from loosing his [censored]".

Bottom right corner is OP sona, a cartoon rabbit looking at a page saying "Am I seriously going to start simping for Caine???"

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 26/05/2026

Ok who was it, I’m not mad just confused. Jokes aside I can’t find why Jake’s Halloween Night got this sudden peak on views, but it’s always nice to see it go up after all this time. #jhn #jakeshalloweennight

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

I don't have anything to say in my defense. I got a bit distracted with the concept sketches. #chn #catrinashalloweennightmare #halloween #horrorgame #conceptart #wip

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

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. #yandere #visualnovel #yanderevisualnovel #darkromance #monster #indiedev #bfhh #eyestrain #brightcolors

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

Genuinely forgot I drew this, and I already shared "Feral" dumb doodles so why not this too. Currently working on the last monster illustration but got a bit behind because their reference was giving me issues. #yandere #yanderevn #bfhh #art #visualnovel #darkromance #monster

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

You have no idea how long I've been waiting to share this, it's been in my drafts since the last week of March. I was originally going to wait till I had shown the 3 monster designs to post this but I got impatient. #yandere #yanderevn #bfhh #art #visualnovel #darkromance

OPs sona Dream, a cartoon dark blue rabbit/sea bunny with a big teal, spiked collar.
Dream looks pensive, hand on their chin.
Dream: "My favorite of the romance options?"

Dream with both hands on their hips, smiling bright.
On the top right corner is a shadow with 4 slit, red eyes.
Dream: "How could I pick one? I love them all equally!"

Dream with a startled and flustered expression, behind them is Feral, a character from OP game Bait for Hungry Hearts.
He has wavy, messy, dark gray hair with gray hairs and a smirk full of neon orange fangs.
He is wearing big, roung pinkish red tinted glasses hiding 2 pairs of eyes, wears a big gray jacket with brownish fur collar.
He is pinching Dream's cheek with one hand as he grips their waist with the other.
Feral: "You sure about that bunny?~"

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Bait for Hungry Hearts 2 of 3 romanceable monsters. The Feral. Real age unknown. Seems to be a giant bat monster. (Monster lovers come get food. I am so proud of this one.) #yandere #visualnovel #yanderevisualnovel #darkromance #monster #indiedev #bfhh

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

Bait for Hungry Hearts 1 of 3 romanceable monsters. The Stalker. Real age unknown. Looks like a cluster of shadows. (Well this came out faster than I thought, inspiration hit, and I had to take advantage of it). #yandere #visualnovel #yanderevisualnovel #darkromance #monster #indiedev #bfhh

DreamBones @dreambones.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

Who could have thought that you'd end up catching the attention of 3 different residents who roam the empty rooms of the hotel? Hungry for attention fill their hearts before you end up filling their stomachs instead. Follow to keep updated on the game progress! #visualnovel #yanderevn #darkromance

Digital illustration. A black mosnter hand stretches from the darkness holding a cartoony heart with the bottom right corner breaking apart.

In bright blue at the top reads "Bait for Hungry Hearts" with the Hearts being wrriten inside of the heart the hand is holding.

Half of the time of me working on this visual novel, is spent with me kicking my legs and having to pause because I get flustered staring at the art. #art

Digital drawing of OP persona, a cartoon rabbit, sitting on the floor kicking her feet and covering their face that is blushing profusely.
To the left is very small “aaaaa” text plus small hearts around her head.

Been dealing with a mix of art block and creating paralysis so I made this, whatever this is, I love it tho, I will likely use it as concept art for one of the walking game worlds. #weirdcore #dreamcore #backgroundart #digitalart #conceptart
