Hey guys, Ani here from Happy Devil Girl! And I've got lots of news and updates for you, so stick around for this if you love our smiley little princess!

Yay! Maline, the story of a happy devil girl trying to get everyone to be friends, turned 1 year old! Last month.. Sorry! Sorry sorry sorry I didn't make an update immediately - In March and April, I was actually moving to Japan. Yeah.. I'm actually typing this from my apartment in Osaka right now! おっきに！
Anddddd all of my equipment is in a boat somewhere in the Pacific right now. Is it the Pacific or Atlantic that it's in? I'm not sure, but that's not the important part. It's sort of the important part, though, because we were developing the DLC and a few other games (that I'll talk about soon) at Happy Devil Girl, and I had to take a big pause on it since I can't access my PC right now. Jod, I don't even wanna think about putting the graphics card back in that thing...
Anyways! I bought a tiny drawing tablet and I've been working with Keera lately on game stuff! Yeah! New games and DLC! Yeah! Really cool stuff! And, we released a ton of games last year that we haven't talked about on this platform yet, so I'm going to update you on those now! Alright, Keera, c'mon! *smack*!
O-oh! Okay, uh, I can update. One, I wanna thank everyone who played through Maline and did little commentaries and playthroughs. That was amazing to see throughout the course of the year. I hope that everyone enjoys the DLC and the new games that we're working on just as much.
Wait wait wait, Keera, it's in a list form, just start with one game. It's a list!
Gay giggle. Okay!
We've done a few Yuri jams together, and if you haven't checked out OL_V, you should right now! It's a cute, short lovestory with a surprising bit of heart.
And I made it in 24 hours! by myself! With a little, tiny, speckular teeny dust speckular amount of help from Keera. But it helped! No matter how tiny it was. It helped.
(More gay giggling) Happy to be a help. You can look forward to it being serialized here on Steam!
Yeah, I'm still working on whether or not I want the chapters to be purchasable or if buying the game should give you instant access to all new chapters for a flat rate... Which one would you guys like? Let us know! Meet Venlee on itch.io and let us know what you think of the game, too!
Breakfast is the first game Ani and I worked together as writerssssah!
Stop smilin' so hard!
Uh... Some background - we made this during DokiJam. And unfortunately we were unable to have it reviewed as part of the contest event due to a technicality. But if you wanna see Dokibird as you've never seen her before, and an really intricate story with a lot of endings, I promise there's lots to love here.
Please check it out! I'll definitely be making a video soon about the results and my thoughts about that, too. But besides that, the characters in this game are so cute and the voice rips are adorable and I think you guys would really like it! Like Keera said, there's a ton of ways you can play this game, and it's one of our first games with such nuanced choices. You can be a huge jerk in this one too, so if that's your thing, go get it.
It's Mikochat! Keera, go! Explain!
(Giggling). MIKOCHAT is probably the first time I've written a toxic yuriー
With Ani!
That has a... Well, I don't wanna spoil it, play it for yourself!
It was our official HDG YURI JAM 2025 result! So check it out! It's got digital fairies! Wow! I expanded SLIGHTLY onto a new concept about fairies! Love em!
Also, the music and humor in this, from my perspective, is some of my favorite in one of these games. Really happy with how this turned out considering the time limit we were on.
It was a 1 week jam, I think, right?
Yeah, yeah. But a week is still a long time to pull together a visual novel like this, and I'm really proud of what we did.
Not arguing with you, Bloopie....
WOWIE WOW WOW! COOL RIGHT?? OH OH OH OH OH! Time to show you previews from other games we're working on, and what you've truly been waiting for - the MALINE DLC!!! So, we're working on a game called "Hey! I Live In A Fantasy World But I Hate Fantasy Tropes!"
Here's the MC! Can you tell she HATES living in the world she's in? Neat!
Also working on a game called "Blood Breeds Blood". It's an action platformer that I want to precede SUPER UNDERWRLD. Check out the main characters for THAT game.
Aren't these thicker lines cool!? I think I did a great job.
As a Keera aside, I'm really excited to dive into the storyline of this game. This is a secret favorite, and I hope you're all looking forward to it.
And last but not least, let's show you some screenshots from....
Dang she looks so fresh!
Dang, she looks so tired!
What's this kid's deal?
Dang he look so stupie!
Lord have mercy. Match your foundation!
ALSO.. HERE'S SOME ....
We actually got YOMI QUINNLEY on this project as Joni from the Maline DLC. That's gonna be awesome.
Okayyyyy big announcement but it's over now! Say bye Keera!
Byeee Keera!
*Smack*
