Game Art Pioneers x Tiny Bunny

Game Art Pioneers, together with artist and game developer Saikono Joker, announced during the Igroprom Festival their plans to jointly publish Tiny Bunny — known in Russia as Zaychik.

Tiny Bunny is a nonlinear horror visual novel created by artist Saikono, based on the short story of the same name by Dmitry Mordas. The first three episodes, released in 2021 by Saikono and his small team, quickly gained critical acclaim for their distinctive art style and haunting atmosphere. Combined with an original and deeply emotional narrative, these elements made Tiny Bunny one of the most memorable and anticipated projects in the Russian indie scene. The release of the fourth episode in 2023 significantly expanded the game’s audience.

“The game has already achieved impressive results in the Russian market, but its fanbase goes far beyond Steam players. We believe that with our support, Tiny Bunny can not only strengthen its success in Russia but also reach a global audience — which is especially timely ahead of the fifth episode’s release,”
said Gleb Kadomtsev, Business Development Director at Game Art Pioneers.

The final, fifth episode of Tiny Bunny is scheduled for release in late 2025. While the developer hasn’t revealed the exact date yet, they note that the episode is already 90% complete. Game Art Pioneers plans to launch several creative collaborations and assist in publishing the game both in Russia and internationally — with a particular focus on the Asian market.

“We have an incredibly active and passionate fanbase that closely follows the project, eagerly awaits the new episode, and constantly creates amazing content inspired by the game. I believe that with the help of the Game Art Pioneers team, we can not only grow our audience but also bring fans new events, collaborations, and merchandise they’ll truly enjoy,”
said Saikono Joker, creator and artist of Tiny Bunny.

Currently, four out of five episodes of Tiny Bunny are available. The game can be purchased on Steam.
