Ash Pinnick

Introductions seem nice to do now that so many of us are trying to leave the ol' billionaire hellsite! Hi, I'm Ash. I'm an Artist, Art Director & Game Dev with 10 years in the industry. I love stylized art, goopy shapes, creatures & insects. Let's be friends! www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1cb...

Reject modernity embrace tradition

One of the most insightful comments about game development came from a former boss. He said “Making a game is like starting a band. You can’t throw money at a new studio with random AAA veterans and expect it to crank out a hit.” 🧵

Hey! You can play the game we've been working on since 2019 now... ON STEAM <3 We tried to capture all the best social aspects of MMOs along with the relaxing loops of animal crossing. Please jump in and give it a try!

Continuing Keeper BTS today! The idea of a lighthouse first appeared in an earlier prototype about a character who could swap masks to change the way it could affect the world. In this early clip, they put a lighthouse mask on themselves and later their mount, creating a light to cause new growth.

Had a great chat about the behind-the-scenes of TYBD, DF, AF, and many other acronyms. This was my first experience leading a game and it was fun unpacking that with Tucker.

Beach morning in Santa Monica #photography #art

It is 1989. I am watching Akira for the first time on a bootleg VHS tape from Japan played on a giant auditorium screen in my college's art building. It is 2001. I am watching Akira on a movie theater screen for the first time. It is 2026. I am watching Akira in 4k in theaters this Saturday. 🤩

This guy tried to pull the "golf courses are worse than data centers" and it did NOT go the way he was hoping. People were like "yes, those should also go." XD

RIP Tim Curry, who voiced Doviculous in Brutal Legend. What a thrill it was to hear him voice our villain, when I grew up going to midnight showings of Rocky Horror. Fucking legend.

Cozy gaming is actually just playing games on a CRT but society is too scared to admit it

After a frustrating few weeks of nerve issues in my drawing arm & other random chaos, I’m finally back on this large commission for a custom painted arcade machine! Stoked to finish this soon and get it to my client. #mural #art #arcademachine #indiegame

"this stuff actually IS valuable. if it wasn't, people wouldn't be stealing it. rewatching hbomberguy's plagiarism video and just having to pause at the obvious but easily forgotten point that I needed to feel with my whole soul at this moment.
