Yeah, I'm sorry to say, but after giving things a lot of thought, I've come to realize that this is for the best for a number of reasons:

1. I'm old. Okay, that's a joke, twenty three isn't really old at all. But in regard to being from the perspective of how much time I have to continue investing into fan works...it's pretty old. And the more time I spend on fan works, the more I'm eating into time that I have to spend on well...original works.

2. With how much I had planned for this game, it would have probably taken me another two years minimum to finish this game, time that I just do not have anymore at this point on due to my irl situations.

3. Even if I had revived it, I would have restarted development, likely on Game Maker Studio 2, a engine I still haven't learned yet, why was I planning this? Clickteam is trash, that is why. Speaking of Clickteam Fusion.

4. This game's cancellation, generally speaking if I'm going to be completely frank was a long time coming. This game along with SUBCON.FDS were already nearly cancelled before as was. It's really nothing short of a miracle that SUBCON.FDS even came out at all with all of the difficult obstacles and hurdles that I was hit in the face with along the way leading up to that point. And with that being the case, it's to be expected that honestly this game basically didn't have a chance.

So what happens now you ask? In the near future, I'll see when, I plan to release a build of what I had done of the game pre-cancellation.

Q: Am I going to give the game to somebody else so they can work on it and possibly make it?

A: Probably not tbh. Anyone else who I give the game too probably wouldn't make a game fitting my specific vision of what I had in mind for it, and on top of this would basically have to run the game from scratch when it comes to everything. And due to extra things like them not knowing [The Creature], Cleat's and Hornet's characters, would definitely have complicated things a lot were I to allow it.

Q: Are you still making EXODUS.CPP?

A: Yes, it will still be getting made. It's a much shorter game, specifically being made for the current LuigikidEXEChallenge4 (Current as of this post's writing anyway lol). And as a result I see it being able to get made a lot sooner and quicker. Some ideas from this game may even see use in that one.

But in summary. Life has caught up, I'm basically out of time, this game would have demanded more of a time sink than what has currently proven worthwhile thus far, and honestly, it's crazy this game didn't get cancelled sooner and that the other game I was working on around the same time as this one wasn't also cancelled too.

Thank you all of you that supported this game all this time, I hope I continue to see your support on other projects of mine such as EXODUS.CPP, Infiniquest, and other future projects of which I have planned. I'm sure you'll enjoy them when they're ready to arrive. And thanks for reading.
