Second thing I should mention is that even though I am still kinda grieving over a passing. I wanna say I appreciate all your love and kindness, but then again life has been good as well. It's just... At times I just don't wanna be a developer at times or even an artist at all anymore.
Not saying like, "Oh I am done with everything". It's more I'm kinda getting sick and tired of wanting to make a FNaF fangame honestly. Am I still interested in fangames or FNaF? Yes, I still have my interest in those. It's just things can be hard when making a fangame honestly. For example, it can take a long time to figure out what you want your narrative to go, and to find people to help you out on what you want. And then when the game comes out you get praised or hated for it. Hell, I would even say trolling can be unprofessional as well. And yes, I get it that trolls are for the jokes "hehehe". But as someone who's been wanting to be in the gaming industry for years now. I am gonna say it... Trolling can be funny, but also can lead to you getting fired for being unprofessional, or even worse it can lead you into legal trouble. I understand that people troll for just to joke around like I get that if your making your own project and all that. But once you join into an actual gaming company/studio or well join into their team. You can't really troll as often at times because people are gonna think you're being unprofessional and honestly it could make you lose your audience/player base as well. So yeah, it's why I'm saying I don't like somethings fangame communities due as often. And I know, I know. There are minors here and there in these communities. But as for them they don't know any better than us adults. But then again I would even say minors should also know what's right from wrong at times if they are trolling a lot. Because like I said trolling can lead you to legal action.
But then again all I am gonna say is I am still thinking about leaving on making a fangame. I am still on the offense, but I'm still thinking about it. But then again, I could just be burned out and need time alone if you get what I'm saying.
Now as for our games (mine and my team's games). Bailey's is still slow same as Case of '91. I've been working on Bailey's 2's transcript which is I'm still on night one. Still haven't gotten time or motivation to work on it yet. As for Case of '91... We got 2/3 chapters written. Chapter 3's writing is on hold because me and my friend who is helping write this is basically taking a break from writing and working on this game till we can get time to do so. Life comes first before working on a passionate project, so we are trying our best to make the games as best as possible. You just need to be patient and wait till we can say some things as well, so again our apologies if we can't share a lot of things with you guys.
Now look, our games aren't cancelled. And none of them will... We just are having development issues. For example the main character designer for Bailey's is dealing with stuff IRL right now. And I'll be real here game development takes time. Hell, I even had thoughts that I am the worst director to be part of game development as whole. Yes, I made stupid mistakes and decisions back then, but now as an adult I wanna say I am sorry for my actions as well. And again I am also sorry for how me and the team aren't working as hard on our games right now.
Like I said, life is going on right now and we are trying our best to get the games out as best as we can. So, hope you all understand that. And one last thing I wanna say is this. After Bailey's Eternal Darkness, Bailey's 2: Abandonment, and Bailey's 3: A Final End. When all 3 of these FNAF fangames are done I might leave the fangame community after these are games are done. Will this mean I'll stop making FNAF fangames? Not entirely, no. What I mean is I'll be taking a break and work on what I really wanna make honestly. And also I just wanna say that Bailey's 2's transcript is still in the works too. Then again I do wanna say this as well, I might be taking breaks here and there to just you know gain my mental health back. For example, after my grandpa passed away I barely sticked on game development and more played games and went out on places with my family to actually catch on my life and mental health as a whole. And again I am sorry for not giving you all updates or even giving stuff that is interesting to you guys. Just remember we all are human and we need to have our own time to ourselves. Not everything needs to be about game development, ect, ect. Just please understand that me and my team are just trying our best to get the games out as best as possible and I hope you truly understand that as well.
And again I am sorry for the long wait you guys are waiting for, so again I am sorry for this and I hope you all understand that too. Now, in conclusion in this develog post that I appreciate all your guys support and appreciate everyone of you guys. And I will try my best in the future to give you all more updates as best as I can. So, again hope you all understand that and hope you all can be patient with not just me, but mainly my team as well. Anyways, I'll talk to you all later.
