They became known in the late 2000s for their video game parody webcomic Hiimdaisy under the name "Peachifruit" (or "Peachi") before moving on to original work in the 2010s, notably the long-form fantasy webcomic Cucumber Quest. Other work of theirs includes the fantasy romance webcomic Lady of the Shard, environment design for video games and animation, fan art and comics for video games such as the Kirby and Super Mario Bros. series, and the fantasy visual novel Soul of Sovereignty.
