Brief history of the development of Georgiger's REBRANDED

Georgiger's REBRANDED initially began as a hypothetical spin-off game to the Jolly Horrors series in December 2020, which at the time was just Project J-0114. Curse of Mikhail wouldn't come out until near the end of the month.

I had a poll voting on which character out of George, Tweetie, Maxie, Wendy and Crimson would have their own spin-off game, and George won, meaning that the Georgiger spin-off would become a reality.

The planned characters were Georgiger, Maxitty (who would later become Maxiger), Fem, Piper and Bill.

The spin-off never really went into development, until Apiphobia was in development in like February 2021, where I decided to make the Georgiger spin-off a Jollibee's styled game, so I took every character out except Georgiger and replaced them with Dennis, Johnny, Meekee and Keesha. These characters were thought up in my head and their names were completely random, but it stuck to me.

I realised that Golden Tweetie actually is still alive after the events of Apiphobia, so I just shoved her into the spin-off just for the sweet succulent lore.

After Apiphobia came out, I wanted to begin work on the spin-off, so when I put the beta demo up in May 2021, people absolutely hated it. They panned it for being a low budget Jollibee's.

I completely lost my marbles at this, and seized production on Georgiger's.

I left GameJolt for a while due to this as well, and I remembered flat out banning access to GameJolt on my laptop for 2 months because I was so angry that Georgiger's got negative feedback. I went and drew redesigns of the entire animatronic cast and posted them to DeviantArt, along with a new character I didn't think of a nane of, but I gave her the name "Princess Taffie" after a while. It got changed to Taffy for some reason, and again it stuck to me. I took Old Keesha out because she was redundant to the new story.

Then I decided to completely revamp Georgiger's into something new, which lead to the creation of Georgiger's REBRANDED.

In total, Georgiger's took 1 year and 3 months to make. Talk about development hell.
