So, there's probably many many questions about this game's development progress. I've always answered with the same thing, that it'll be done "eventually". However, I believe that has changed.

As it stands, finishing Scooped! does not align with my current interests in terms of game development. I wish it wasn't that way, but the truth is that I do not see myself ever finishing it. Unfortunately, I'll likely be letting Scooped go.

Now, this isn't the end of my games- I'll likely continue posting on my Gamejolt account about new projects whenever they happen (Follow me to keep updated)! It's just a goodbye to Scooped. I wish it could have been more graceful, but the development of this game has been weighing on me for a while as this sisyphean task that'll never be completed, and I feel it is time to let it go, for better or for worse.

Now, I do have one more thing coming- A brand new game, created for this year's Freddit jam, Just like the original Scooped was, has it's gamejolt page up now! Go check it out: https://gamejolt.com/games/fazbear-armageddon/724114
The game isn't out yet, but I've put some nice little teasers for both music and visuals on the page. Once it releases though, don't expect additional content post-release, besides bug fixes or QoL/Polish.

Coming up after that, in a very indeterminate amount of time, I have plans for a *fully original* game! There likely wont be any word on this for a while, but I thought I'd mention it.

Either way, thanks to everyone who joined me through this process. It's been a ride.
