SmashBits Animations

SmashBits Animations is an independent American animation studio creating web comedy, video game parodies, original animated series and commissioned digital productions. Based in Henderson, Kentucky, it combines its own entertainment output with animation services for online creators, broadcasters and digital distributors. Its work spans 2D and 3D animation, with a particular emphasis on character comedy and internet culture.

Founded by Kedric “Rick” Jones, the enterprise began as a solo web-comedy animation project in 2014 and expanded as its audience grew. The channel reached more than one million subscribers within thirteen months, helping attract commissions from other creators and media networks. The business formally incorporated in Kentucky in November 2016.

Original entertainment

The studio is known for its If Video Games were Realistic anthology, which reinterprets familiar gaming worlds through irreverent, satirical scenarios. Its parody subjects include Undertale, Cuphead, Deltarune, Five Nights at Freddy’s, Sonic the Hedgehog, Genshin Impact and Super Smash Bros. Alongside these adaptations, SmashBits has developed original animated comedy such as Intergalactic Pizza Delivery Guy and Neo Fighter Dream Crisis.

Commissioned production

SmashBits offers full-service production and individual production services, covering writing, storyboarding, animatics, character design, rigging, animation, sound design and editing. Its techniques include Adobe Animate puppet and cut-out animation, 3D character animation and Source Filmmaker. It also coordinates localization, translation and dubbing assets and supplies white-label animation for creators and broadcasters.

Its commissioned portfolio includes animation production for twenty episodes of Oishi: Demon Hunter, alongside Johnny Test web shorts and Sidewalk Cops. The studio has also produced animated commissions for creators including KSI and Gamer Chad, and contributed production work for properties associated with Disney XD, MTV and WildBrain. This combination of original channel programming and client production remains central to its business, with new episodic animation continuing through late 2026.
