Why a DLC-sequel? Besides financial reasons (paying the Steam App ID for a full title wouldn't be that wise right now), a DLC allows us to still put out a sequel while experimenting with new, yet more compact, gameplay styles for a future iteration in a bigger game set with the Dino Shakes universe. It lets us make a smaller Dino Shakes game, while still working on the larger projects of the year.
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.
Shakespeare's Birthday Sale! 2023
Yes. We know.
Here's a sale anyway.
Steam Spring Sale 2023
It's literally still snowing here, but sure.
Army of Tentacles 2 + Tentacle Prawn Update!
First off, it's really ridiculous that we finally got out the final Army of Tentacles. Yes, Unicorns is coming later, and Tentacle Prawn technically counts as a spin-off in the same way that the Mythos games do, but for all mentally stressful purposes, the trilogy is over.
Yes, that feels weird, considering the series began in 2016 and the recodes are still being worked on. Army 3's recode now only has 20 Arguments, and even though we're working on Dinosaur Cousin Squad exclusively after March ends, not working on any other projects is going to free up time to finish those.
Internally, we've been referring to it as Army of Tentacles 4, even though it's... really not an entry in the main arc. It has.... stuff in it, and it really is a true mixture of the two worlds, but it is its own thing entirely.
Plus, a few release dates have shifted due to a very nasty flu. Not sure if it is Long COVID or just a really despicable bug.
AoT 2 is now March, and we're still debating when Tentacle Prawn will come out. It'll either release same month as AoT 2 or Rainbow Unicorn Island. We're trying to find a balance between financial sense and thematic sense.
