If we hit a specific total games sold goal by or before the end of the year, we've decided that we're going to produce a special goofy game for y'all. It will involve dinosaurs.
We have added a fancy new biz Twitter to our dev page on Steam. Follow us for all the sporadic game updates you can handle!
Halloween Discount Sale #2
Halloween is the best.
I can't find candy in stores anymore. It's not even October.
Army of Tentacles 2022, Spooky Cat Girls?: Changes
Doing things isn't easy.
Video games are hard, as someone once said I forget who, but it's an actual quote. I think it may be from an executive. I dunno.
Being a niche indie company is hard.
Hired a new writer for Spooky Cat Girls?'s classroom scenes when it became clear that it would not make a reasonable launch date for October. It was either launch directly before the Halloween sale (and this was hoping Valve would accept the final build on the first submission, never something a designer should bet on) or delay it, and we chose to delay it. We feel December also fits in with the theme of the chosen play.
Super Army of Tentacles has always been my baby, but it's gone through so many changes, due to gameplay as well as personal reasons, that I feel a disconnect with it. Rather than make a tentpole game that I do not want to make, I handed it off to another team member for a 2023 release. This would be the first Army of Tentacles game not helmed by me, which is exciting as I 100% trust my team and think it is time that we all grow in that fashion. We've been alive almost five-point-something years now.
In the place of Super Army of Tentacles, I plan on making a new, full VN-RPG Army of Tentacles game. I feel much more confident about this one, and it will launch at the same time that Super Army 2022 would have. That will be announced soon, maybe with the other 2022 games. Maybe not. Who knows.
This is a sort of sequel to Sexy Centaurs in the same way Emperor Penguin Lear was.
Joe Papp is officially part of Paper Shakespeare!
Moved all the Joe Papp games into the Paper Shakespeare bundle, and now they make up two more Merchant of Venice games in the list of Shakespeare games we're making/have made.
This one is very near and dear to us, and to me, because it was an idea that I had been mulling around way back in the wee year of 2017. So it was important for us to put an idea together for Midsummer Night's Dream that resonated. The concept of the summer camp slasher movie seemed like a fantastic juxtaposition to the play's theme of young (and naive) love.
Next up: Oops! All Dragons! might be rearing its head for a late August launch, as the spine of that gameplay loop is already done.
