IRL vs WEB3 — w/ my Beast 'Geometric' Sunnies. 🌷☀️ #AKCB #BEASTMART

I’m truly honored and humbled to share that I now hold over 100 BEASTs, becoming the first woman in AKCB to reach this milestone. 🥹🤍 Each one means something to me. They have their own names, their own personalities, and their own stories. I see so much in the art—the expressions, the little details, the depth of these characters. Somewhere in their stories, pieces of my own have found a place. AKCB means so much to me because of the people who give this community its heart. I’ve felt the kindness here. The generosity, the laughter, the way people show up for one another when life gets heavy. Those things stay with me. They’re why I call this my ʻohana. This goal is deeply personal. There is something beautiful about reaching a place in your life where you can pour into what you love, trust what speaks to you, and allow yourself to celebrate how far you’ve come. Building this little family of BEASTs has brought me so much joy, creativity, and connection. Being the first woman to reach this milestone adds another layer of meaning. I hope it encourages another woman to keep creating, collecting, and making room for what she loves. We belong here, and there is so much we can bring to this space simply by being ourselves. Thank you to Rafsby, Caleb, and this entire community for giving us something that reaches beyond the art and into our lives. I’m grateful to be part of its story, and grateful you’re part of mine. Over 100 BEASTs, each with a story… and the Beast in me still has so much left to tell. 🤍 #AKCB #B4L

Beast Tennis might be even better on mobile 👀 @akidcalledbeast

This time, it looks like we can make a tennis game too! 🎾✨ It looks so much fun and cute! 😊💖 I’m really excited to play it when it’s ready! 🎮🎾✨ #AKCB @akidcalledbeast @Rafsby #Klingai #4K

NGL. The kid in me is feeling so satisfied to be playing a game me and my partner @calebsmiler made. We got so many cool things cooking too. Wait until you see them. 🙏👀

Ready 👀✨🎾

Lead dev told me that on Monday we can start taking applications to bring beasts into Beastside. Games feeling pretty stable across the board now. We'll continue patching things as we find them obviously but we're in a very good spot. 🙏 FINALLY!!!!!!

Almost time for something new @sanscrayons @calebsmiler 👀

We built an entire rated M game feat a full city with interiors, shop system, production system, weapon system, vehicle and pedestrian system, NPCs, day-night cycle system, inventory system all while we learned to code our own game in 60 days. All that’s left is multiplayer, menus and launch. 2 games just about ready. One for all ages. One for adults. Cant wait to see how they hit! You really only need a small team these days. 🎮👀

What do we think gang? 👀 #gamedev #indiedev #multiplayer

I Made this Graffiti art to participate in the @akidcalledbeast art contest 💥 I'm so excited for this!! Spent a lot of time, but I edited it into a short video, hope you all like it 🙌🏻 @EstrellaCr3w My bad, wrong in writing the tag 🙏🏻 #AKCB #BeastCreativeLab @aKIDcalledBEAST

✅Real talk update. ✅ We've been stuck in and out of what many people in the game industry would call "development hell" with Beastside for the last lil while. Some days… the reliance on others feels like we’re just never going to hit a finish line or key milestone with development. For years we've put our trust in developers, timelines, estimates, and promises that the next milestone was right around the corner. We've tried to be patient. We've tried to be understanding. We've given chance after chance after chance for things to stay on track. The reality is that deadlines have continued to slip, progress has continued to stall, and too often we've found ourselves trapped in endless troubleshooting loops that don't seem to have a clear beginning, middle, or end. As founders, that's frustrating. What makes it even more frustrating is what we've discovered over the last year... Instead of sitting on the sidelines waiting for progress reports, myself, Caleb, and Matheus decided to start learning game development ourselves firsthand. We dove headfirst into modern workflows, AI-assisted development, Unity, three.js, vite, web technologies, prototyping, debugging, design systems, documentation, and real industry standard production pipelines. What started as curiosity turned into something unexpected… We started building. And things started moving. Fast. Not because game development is easy. It isn't. But because modern tools have fundamentally changed what's possible for people who are willing to learn, adapt, ask questions, document properly, and take ownership of problems instead of getting stuck on them. The uncomfortable truth is that some of the side projects we're building with a tiny fraction of Beastside's budget are moving faster than Beastside itself. Which makes no sense as seemingly novice devs ourselves. That forces us to ask some difficult questions. If we're now fully capable of building systems, solving problems, creating prototypes, and moving projects forward ourselves, does it still make sense to continue relying on others to execute on our visions and timelines? Or is it time for us as founders to take direct ownership of the development process and bring Beastside home? I've always believed that if you want something done right, eventually you have to be willing to do it yourself. And the more we learn, the more difficult it becomes to ignore that reality… This isn't a decision we're taking lightly. There are people who have contributed in some significant ways to Beastside and we appreciate every effort that's been made along the way. But at the end of the day, our responsibility isn't to protect feelings. Our responsibility is to ship the game. So that's where our heads are at right now. So now we have an important decision to make. Do we continue down the current path? Do we give the existing dev structure one final opportunity to prove itself? Or do we take the wheel ourselves and attempt to drive Beastside across the finish line? Curious what the community thinks. Because one thing is certain: We're done accepting endless delays as the normal cost of progress. It doesn’t feel good. I’ve been patient enough. I feel it’s time to switch things back up to our smaller team with more direct regimented focus. 🙏

We've been building the ENTIRE time with no breaks. Wait til you see what we've cooked up as NFTs. 👀

Had this idea to take the apartment map from our third person battle game and also turn it into a go-kart race track. Turns out it works really well so now we've got our first official battle racing map. 🚗👀

Just added proper drifting mechanics. We've got verticality, ramps, jumps, physics, a map builder, multiplayer, drafting/slipstreaming, adjustable camera, speed boosts, spedometer, post processing effects. 🎮 What do you wanna see in terms of gameplay though? Tell us and maybe we'll pop it in! 👀

Making sure that every single person on my team is equipped with the latest AI tools and being pointed to the right sources of knowledge. The fables where they spoke of heroes having the strength, wit & might of 10 men will be the new reality of our workspace and culture. 🦾

Golden reflection, as minted into perfection! @akidcalledbeast Epic ship @Rafsby !!
