As Samuel L. Jackson once said: hold on to yer butts.
Delays, Dino Cousin Squad WIP
Due to a combination of factors:
1) Surgery recovery.
2) Family life events.
3) Quality dev cycles for various products. We redid the schedule today, and feel like we have a better grip on when exactly we can work on what specific projects.
4) Dinosaur Cousin Squad being a new genre and a new engine.
Unless otherwise specified, everything already not in production is going to be pushed to 2024. Geeks: Miller Cut, Illyria, and Rainbow Island are all 90% done and still expected to be able to be completed in a relatively short amount of time.
Everything else is non-priority at this point and is going to be 2024.
Pre-Summer Sale! Summer of DLC, Part 3!
It's almost that time again! Which means it is that time again!
So, like, in all seriousness, this is the game that I should be writing on pain meds right now. This one rounds out the three DLC Sequels that are hitting in the year of our Gourd 2023.
What's this? Announcing four new products whilst recovering from surgery? Well, they aren't huge, and half of them are already in various stages of production.
We're trying to make these suckers the size of full games, but no promises. Experimenting with a DLC format allows us to take both more and safer risks with a pre-established game. We also don't have the budget for three full games at the moment, and we're currently six games away from adapting every Shakespeare play (that excludes the entirety of the Henriad, which we're trying to do as one game - nine plays as one title). DLC costs us nothing, and we had the assets lying around. Some were made specifically for the DLC-Quels, some just were gathering dust.
The third DLC-Quel isn't ready to reveal yet. We were thinking we could reveal all three at once, but forgot that one still needed to be submitted to Valve for verification.
Look! A game! I'm amazing! Right before surgery, too! I deserve, like, fifty Gold Medals. Enjoy this quaint jaunt, straddling the lines between the Paper Shakespeare world and the Army of Tentacles world.
Scarecrows of Illyria is coming sometime next month.
May Sale (You know the overall joke title) 2023
It's early, yeah, but I'm also gonna be getting surgery bills soon.
This one is also a two-parter, with the main meat - the Barnacle Meat, if you are classy enough to watch Succession - coming next month.
