A message about my latest game...and why it's been deleted.


Note: I know this post is long, but it does contain some important info about why the game was made, and why it was removed. Please be considerate and take the time to read the whole thing (and understand it) before posting a comment. Thank you!

Alright, that’s it. Since everyone’s being so mean about some game I threw together in a day as an experiment, I’m just going to remove the freaking thing. Why? Because I’m sick and tired of the fact that everyone critisizes every single thing I make. I’m serious. Very often I get an email saying that someone posted a comment on a game or video I made, and it’s usually “Omg this is so horrible”. And I’m not able to take “maturely” like you all expect me to…I have serious problems. I’m not using it as an excuse, they are genuine problems.

I have almost no confidence, which is probably linked to the fact that I’m currently battling depression. Every single negative comment on my work—especially work that I was actually somewhat proud of—makes me completely hate myself. I’m not exactly suicidal anymore, but sometimes I just want to ram my head against the wall when my work doesn’t turn out the way I want.

All I want is to share my work—but it seems like everyone wants everything to perfect. They have extremely high expectations on everything I have to offer, and I’ve never been able to meet them.

I know some of you might say you’re trying to help me, so I’m sorry to say that it’s not coming across that way. Thank you for trying though.

Why am I posting this anyway? I guess I just want you to know that the reason I deleted the game is because of how hurt I am. I know it’s not the best thing ever, but it was just an experiment…and what do I get? Everyone hates it.

If you want to know the purpose of the game, here it is:

It was a test to see if I could scare people through sound.

Throughout the entire game, a low frequency was being played—one so low that you can’t actually hear it. But some people are actually kind of scared when these frequencies are being played. And being the psycho I am, I’ve been experimenting with it. But obviously it hasn’t had any effect…

I’m sorry this is so lengthy, I just really needed to get this stuff out there. I hope that someone will at least try to understand…

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

Path of Kami, running around the shrine area

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!
