Felt inspired by the lovely Maya animation @cookiebunbun25.bsky.social came up with, so we worked together to come up with this! Now in HD with sound and an even bigger Maya to marvel

OKAY WAIT ONE MORE THING This shot in the trailer, looking out at the world beyond. Kirby's in awe, he doesn't know what he's looking at just like us. But the new girl? There's no joy or confusion there, she is dead serious. She knows exactly what she's looking at, it's bad and she's not hiding that

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

And now finally we have the new girl Her design is interesting. She seems to be wearing a sort of Poncho, but it's contrasted with all these gold accents on her arms, legs and hair. Also she has legs, very notable for Kirby. She has odd symbols on her head and shirt, and lots of purples all over.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Exhibit C: Elfilin Elfilin... does not actually betray Kirby. But everyone thought he would, which is why he's here too. When we look at his design, it's much simpler, because he's a simpler character with nothing to hide. The one odd detail is his ear, a scar from his origins that we learn later.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Exhibit B: Magolor Where Marx is slightly uncanny, Magolor seems friendly but reserved. He wears a hood and mask, like a rogue, a thief. It's easy to imagine this guy keeping secrets and that's exactly what he does, he hides his true motivations from you just like how he hides his face.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

Exhibit A: Marx. The Bastard We all know he's evil already, but try looking at him without context. He's this cute creature, sure, but there's still something "off" about him, right? The biggest thing to note is that he's a Jester, a trickster. When it turns out the joke is on you, it makes sense.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Rouge, but it's actually Angi figure this look suits her lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

More Amy Maya doodles got a flavor of big for everyone lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Doodle of Maya as Amy to try and raise morale

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Think the next thing I want to do with my game (talking about Maya's big adventure) is to host some kind of level making competition for it. Feel like that'd be a great way to both stress test the level editor and figure out how to make fun levels. Actually hosting such a thing scares me though lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

screw it I'mma do the thing, why not

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Quick, what's a word that you'd use to describe Maya?

12291

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Yeah I don't actually have the slightest idea if or when I'd be able to even attempt any of this lol

0322

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Oh yeah, I guess since Maya's Playbox is out now, I can share these concept sketches I drew up for a followup

46610

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

Had updated Maya's Playbox, which meant taking a bunch of new screenshots of her. Thought I'd be a little silly with this one and do a trend ages after it was relevant, lol

113518

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Some more shots of Maya being exceptionally round

116224

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I'll also be sharing various screenshots of the game taken by other server members, cause it's pretty fun to do that lol

1676

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Hey! I'm gonna be making Maya's Playbox public soon, probably later this week. But I decided to let server members try it out early while I work on finishing up the project page, so if you're interested come check it out! discord.gg/d6XseZ4cm

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Nine years of righteous indignation and rage from millions of salmon run players the world over was channeled into this one shot, lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

After playing Splatoon Raiders for a week straight (and getting pretty lucky with weapon drops), I've done it. At long last I've created the strongest build possible, and can finally rest.

Posted a new update for Maya's Big Adventure on Patreon all about the game's first enemy, you can read all about it here! www.patreon.com/MaxDigita1/p...

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

Good Question! Normally Maya gets knocked down when a cloud guard swings at her. But when she's inflated, their attacks will just bump her away harmlessly. They can't actually hurt her with their blunt batons, but in her inflated state she can't do much to them either.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 17/05/2026

Making a game is so tiring lol Here's an early look at the first enemy being added to Maya's Big Adventure. He's a guard made out of clouds that patrols a set area: after defeating him he leaves his body armor behind, and Maya can use it as a projectile to take out more enemies.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 16/05/2026

I humbly submit my own character as well. ...also holy shit 50 replies in less than two hours lmao

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 02/05/2026

The Boulder is displeased to have gone this long and still not found a suitable weapon

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 01/05/2026

Yeah fuck it, here we go lol it's gonna be pain but anything is more fun than job applications so why not

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 30/04/2026

Just finished a new devlog. It's a smaller one this time but still worth checking out I think: www.patreon.com/posts/156938...

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 26/04/2026

So imagine you're battling in real time, right? Every second matters and online battles are these fast paced free-for-alls with attacks being fired off constantly Now imagine trying to use this move:

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Also separate versions of the other angles

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

I've been told I don't draw Angi enough, so here's a bunch of drawings I made of her for no particular reason lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 05/04/2026

New patreon post, this time featuring a brand new game! This is a tech demo I'm calling Maya's Playbox, and you can read all about it here! www.patreon.com/posts/new-ga...

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 25/03/2026

So, it is now official: I've made a new game! It's more of a tech demo I guess, I'm calling it Maya's Playbox. It'll be playable for the first time at SizeCon 2026! I'll share more info and a Patreon exclusive build of the game in the first week of April, and some time after that it'll go public.

As promised, here's a better shot of Maya's brand new model. Getting closer to a full body reveal, but not quite there yet hehe Might end up making this into a thread, we'll see. Thank you so much for drawing her, Soup! bsky.app/profile/divo...

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

Feeling kinda tired and a bit bummed, so fuck it, I'mma ask people to draw Maya. Whether it's her just being normal and cute or absolutely massive it's up to you, I just wanna see more of her. I mean how can you say no to this face?

3D close up of Maya's face. Her entire body is inflated, but most of it is out of view

Art of Maya striking a pose, meant to be used as a reference

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 13/03/2026

My first thought was this bit from Splatoon 2, but I guess it implies that Callie is the big one lol

040

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 11/03/2026

Been a little more quiet around here than I probably should've been Sorry about that lol, but I promise I've still been working on game dev stuff. Don't have much to share, but I did at least draw this the other day.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Followup to my last post, I did in fact get it to work with a model, so here's a round and squishy Toadette bouncing around in a cube. Thank you Mario wonder for existing and having models that are near perfect for testing this lmao.

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Got sick this week and didn't want to work on anything too complicated. Apparently this was my idea of making something "simple" instead lmao

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 11/02/2026

Just finished a new Suki game update, you can read about it here! www.patreon.com/posts/suki-g... credit to @mabocorescant.bsky.social for drawing up the amazing art for this title screen

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 10/02/2026

Had two ideas come to mind. There's a bit where she's dancing with Wolf in a blue dress, so you could do that with her having gotten so big that she crushes him when he tries to lift her up, lol. Other idea is to draw her riding her motorcycle also it's a fun movie, would recommend

020

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 14/01/2026

Crafted a new Legends Z-A team Feel like I've been seeing literally every mythical online except Meloetta, so I went out of my way to fit her on the team lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 08/01/2026

Just posted a new devlog, and this ones a chonker. Tons of info on what I want to work on, where the game went during hiatus and how people can help with development, so if that interests you please check it out! Oh and there's also a bunch of concept art lol maxdigital.itch.io/mayasbigadve...

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 07/01/2026

...Yeah sure why not, I like hearing from people lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 01/01/2026

Happy New Year! Been pretty quiet lately, but rest assured I'll have plenty to share about my projects soon enough. In the meantime, I figured I'd finally go ahead and make these sprite sheets public to bring in the new year. (will also share on sites where they won't be horribly compressed, dw lol)

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 27/12/2025

Did a few doodles on discord and some of them were Christmas themed, so I figured I'd share here

0417

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 25/12/2025

I can't speak for others, but to be honest I was chomping at the bit for any excuse to leave that place. I didn't even like it before musk so I had zero interest in staying. Even had fun with it by removing my characters from the banner and stuff lol

030

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 19/12/2025

would posting this also include the mod you made with it? cause that was pretty epic lol

1270

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 15/12/2025

Some concept art doodles Been putting together a more thorough devlog on what I imagine a completed version of Maya's Big Adventure might look like, and I figure I should make some drawings to break up the paragraphs of text lol

MaxDigital @maxdigital.bsky.social · 03/12/2025

So Mario Kart World got an update today. It's a pretty small update honestly, might be hard to tell what's changed
