HAPPY THIRD ANNIVERSARY TO PHOBIA: THE AWAKENING!


Goodness gracious. Three years have already gone by.


I never thought I was actually going to release one of my many weird FNaF fangames featuring The Wiggles puppets I had been making for years, but there I was, stepping far out of my comfort zone and seeing what people would think.

It's been a surreal experience. Lots of fun and good to come out of it, and maybe too many times where I've questioned if releasing Phobia out of all things I could have made was a good idea. I must admit, Phobia kind of bothers me nowadays, hence why I made the choice to rebrand it as Showman's, which I am far, far happier with. I really wish I had made that change years ago, but better later than never.


Despite everything I sometimes think or may say, I'm happy to be here. I wish I was the powerhouse I used to be but times have been rough and things have been too slow, which I apologize for. I'm trying my best, but I'm only a human being making some FNaF fangames to learn more about game development, and also simply because I love FNaF a lot.

My best advice to anyone making fangames should do the exact same. Don't worry about making something super original, don't worry about your graphics, your mechanics, or anything else. Just have fun making a fangame. You'll continue to learn new things and maybe someday you can use all that knowledge to make a really cool original game in the future! Of course, if you wish to challenge yourself to make something unlike most fangames, then go for it! Just remember to never stress too much over it. You also don't owe anyone anything. You're making what you want, and if you don't want to do it, then don't force yourself to!
