The only way I can justify Mary's existence is that at 5 years old in internet time, she's technically a 'legacy' character. If 'mascot horror' was in its current state back when I first made Mary, I would've just quit on the spot. Genre is poisoned.
If I lean into "It's a FNaF fan game," it gets associated with modern AAA FNaF slop and carries that baggage.
If I say it's not FNaF, it's lumped in with every other mascot horror.
How do you even fix this? How do you market something like this without getting put in a box?
If I have to get put in a box, I'd prefer a box with good company.
I'd settle for the lesser of two evils.
But I'd rather have my own damn box.

1Uhh, hello? Hello? Welcome to Mary's Arcade, where we have a character whose AI is set to - freaking 80.
(Yes this actually does something and works in context, I just thought it looked real funny considering how "AI level" usually gets used in FNaF.)
I was working on installing drop down menus and I get an error on some old code for "REMOVE THIS CODE ONCE DROP DOWN MENUS ARE CREATED."
Thanks, past me.
Cottage Critter mech is still unfinished after nearly 3 years.
My pathological perfectionism is destroying my ability to work on anything. I need to abandon this realism obsession as it's clearly not working.
No SP is not canceled, stop worrying.

Mary and her Fang plushie.
This is evil Mary her name is Yram. If Yram eats too many charged stickers something real cool might happen soon.
Adding positive reinforcement for using your brain.
This is still a very early concept, but it's already a lot more interesting than endless showdowns with the flashlight.
Exact numbers are covered up in case I actually use these.
