Allow us to introduce ourselves!

We're an artist collective designing the whimsical grimdark world of Colony, an insectoid fantasy universe!

We're developing art, music, stories, and games of all sorts!

We're back with a January update, featuring updates our Wild Beast NPC statblock, as well as our latest progress on the Song of Origins lore video: www.hex.studio/post/colony-... #bugsky #indiedev #indie #gamedev #ttrpg #tabletop #demo #colony #insects #bugs #fantasy
An image of an unfinished digital painting. The words "Colony Update January 2026" are superimposed over the image in large text. The scene depicts an aerial view of a forest at sunset, looking directly down at the ground. In a space between the trees, broken shards of a golden-yellow substance lay strewn across the earth. The trees and branches cast long, stretching shadows across the area.

An image of a digital painting. The words "Colony Update November 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. The scene shows a large anthropomorphized termite-like character on the left in a wide stance, swinging a massive blade at a smaller ant-like character on the right. A low fog swirls behind them as dark clouds gather in the background, with tall plants towering over the insectoid characters.

An image of an unfinished digital sketch. The words "Colony Update October 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. The scene shows a large anthropomorphized termite-like character on the left in a wide stance, swinging a massive blade at a smaller ant-like character on the right.

Check out our September update, where we go over the recently-released Colony TTRPG demo, and take a look at what's ahead for the project: www.hex.studio/post/colony-... #bugsky #indiedev #indie #gamedev #ttrpg #tabletop #colony #insects #bugs #fantasy
An image of a digital painting. The words "Colony Update September 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. The scene shows a large throne room, looking up toward a massive, ornate throne composed of natural materials. An insectoid queen sits on the throne, light filtering down from just above her head. At the foot of the throne are two of her subjects, bowed in supplication and shrouded in gloomy shadows. The painting is not yet finished, with visible sketch lines throughout.

An image composed of two overlapping paintings. The words "Colony Update August 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. One half of the image is an ant-like character standing in a dark location, surrounded by gently-glowing fungus; they are reaching out as if to cradle the mushroom cap in front of them. The other half of the image is a katydid-like character standing against a simple, flat background.

An image composed of two overlapping paintings. The words "Colony Update July 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. One half of the image is a tall, imposing tree in full bloom, rivulets of sap running out of its trunk to pool at its roots. The other half is a close-up of the branch of the same tree, with a chrysalis hanging down from it. A butterfly's wing pattern is visible within the chrysalis, and glowing energy is coursing through the tree branch into it.

Take a look at our June 2025 update, where Muir goes over the process of filming the trailer for our Colony TTRPG: www.hex.studio/post/colony-... #bugsky #indiedev #gamedev #ttrpg #colony #insects #bugs #fantasy
An image composed of two overlapping photographs of hand-made miniatures situated on a grid of hexagons. The words "Colony Update June 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. One half of the image is a close-up photograph of a bee miniature, armed with a bow and arrow pointed at the camera. The other half of the image is a close-up of a moth miniature, holding a mushroom in one hand and a trail of fire in another. The scenes are lit as though the miniatures are outdoors, and they are surrounded by artificial plants and dirt, giving the impression of a natural environment on a small scale.

An image composed of two overlapping paintings. The words "Colony Update May 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. One half of the image is a moth character emerging from a ragged tear in the foreground. The other half of the image is of a termite-like character fighting in the rain, preparing to throw a glowing orb at a butterfly-like character flying above.

Take a look at our April 2025 update, which covers the latest developments on the Colony roleplaying game, as well as our continuing work on the Song of Origins: www.hex.studio/post/colony-... #bugsky #indiedev #gamedev #ttrpg #colony #insects #bugs #fantasy
An image composed of two overlapping paintings. The words "Colony Update April 2025" are superimposed over the image in large text. One half of the image is a close-up of a fuzzy moth-like character, gently twining a braid in its fingertips. The other half of the image is a large, imposing dead tree, its branches bereft of leaves, with a bright, contrasting river of sap flowing down out of its trunk toward the viewer.
