IMPORTANT. This is ridiculous. GameJolt is officially in my books a less than a mediocre website, all thanks to its moderation. Read below.


I, unfortunately, have gotten a following here, so it would mean pretty much starting over elsewhere, such as itch, but I have to consider it. Speaking of my itch, here it is.


Now, why am I saying this?

My friend, @FormulaFanboyFFIB , who has to some extent been integral to some margin of success GameJolt achieved, and is known to be a kind, fair, and just, in general, a good person, has gotten his verified badge taken away a few months ago for if I remember correctly getting into some slight beef with the moderation team, which not only got him His verified badge removed, but also ownership of the Super Mario Community taken away, on top of being for a small time frame completely banned from posting anything into it.

Just recently, something even funnier happened.

In short, he got an e-mail for a game takedown for "sexual offense", for a game he hasn't even created a page for. It literally, as he said, does not exist. And that happened, despite having explicit permission to try to make such a game. The game it was meant to be was a small adventure game based on the GameJolt staff members, or as he put it, at the time, his now-former idols.

GameJolt, step up your game. This is pathetic.

Hello again!

We'd like to apologize for not communicating about the game, and what's been happening with the studio.

Please take a little bit of time out of your day to read the article below, explaining what happened, and what we're planning;

Thank You.

Sumo Cars 2's development has been facing some technical difficulties with the editor, however, the issue is now resolved.

Development is continuing, and we are hoping to get an update out by new year's. Stay tuned!

Good news!

Development is slowly resuming. We're now simply more busy than we used to be for years, so development will still likely be a little slower, but it's once again underway.

Have a screenshot of us having fun testing the new developer console! :)

Another snippet from development, back when update 0.3.2 was brewing. Maybe a little bit too much light?! :D
