Hip Flask Games

Hi! Idk what happened, but we’ve had a bunch of new followers lately soooo welcome, friends! 👋

We’re making a game about being a bureaucrat in a fantasy world.

Hopefully, that sounds groovy to you. And uh, if not, then hopefully you'll stick around for our cool game dev updates and/or sharp wit.

I present to you a very early WIP of our menu and of course a lil video showcasing the logic behind it.

The environment is incredible!!

Red alert! Video of me following around a skeleton with a clipboard has just come out!

Who among us doesn't love a good game soundtrack?

Please be quiet, our dragon is sleeping.

Thanks y'all!

I bring to you a video that showcases our 3rd-person accessibility feature.

Congrats!!!

Thank you, everyone :)

Heard that there was some concern that our game, the BFAA would utilize AI. I am proud to say that is 100% NOT the case. This game is being created by real people with real passion. Our 100+ characters will be voiced and written by living, breathing, people. #supportindies
