From the Depths They Rise: Our Cult Learns 3D Printing

First came the games. Then came the summoning. Now comes... the printing.

Dark One Games has crossed another threshold: we’ve added 3D printing to our lair, and nothing is safe from experimentation. Thanks to one chirpy overachiever (Bambu Labs X1 Carbon) and one silent goo-summoner (Elegoo Saturn S), our workshop has evolved from “game publisher” to “small-scale reality bender.”

The Machines Themselves

Bambu Labs X1 Carbon

It is fast, scarily precise, and somehow smarter than us. It prints multicolor objects like a demon with a graphic design degree possesses it. Watching it go is like seeing technology flirt with forbidden magic.

Elegoo Saturn S

A resin printer. Quiet. Purposeful. Patient.
It lifts models from the black ooze one layer at a time, like it's performing a very slow resurrection. This is where our high-detail madness is born: miniatures, relics, tiny weapons, and strange cultic idols for games still being formed.

Why We Needed This Now (Tariffs, That’s Why)

Let’s be brutally honest: Tariffs have wrecked the prototyping process. Overseas production is now slow, expensive, and frustratingly uncertain. We needed the ability to test, iterate, and prototype, especially as newer, more complex games like Schizo Mayhem take form and fight to traverse the Veil of the Abyss. So now, we do the prototyping in-house.

No more waiting months for a sample. No more emailing into the void. We press a button, wait a few hours, and boom, a tiny chaotic goat demon is in our hands.

Control. Speed. Freedom. That’s what these machines give us. And we’re not letting go.

Final Words from the Plastic Forge

We didn't just get printers. We got new tools for storytelling, chaos, and community connection. It’s not just prototyping. It’s worldbuilding. It’s giving physical shape to the nonsense in our heads. It’s allowing us to share pieces of our twisted little universes with fans.

So next time you hear a low mechanical whir and smell burnt PLA on the wind... Know that something new is being born at Dark One HQ... And it’s probably got tentacles.
