Hey is anyone out there good at TikTok/instagram/Youtube shorts?

For sure! Iโ€™ve never been good with social media stuff like TikTok and Instagram. I might have to float some ideas by some people.

Does anyone else feel overwhelmed by creating a marketing plan for their game?

Thank you!

Taking a little hiatus on ShoNiMals to get some smaller projects done.

Itโ€™s surprisingly fun for something so immature. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Hey Bluesky!

Just in case youโ€™ve noticed a change in this account Iโ€™m changing the ShoNiMals account to become the SL Black Studios account.

Iโ€™ve been working on some smaller projects I want to share and the title SL Black Studios will be more reflective of that.
