So, many of you have noticed, the planned side game for Night at Nuggit's has been unlisted and inaccessible without a link. There has also been no updates on any upcoming, well, updates to the main game. And well, there's uh, a lot to unpack here.
Feeling I Could've Done Better
When Night at Nuggit's fully released this April, at that moment I believe the game was ready for the public, and so did the team. And, at first, everything was going relatively well.
After that, I started to feel like I fumbled the game's release. I felt bad about the issues the game had and felt like I should have done the game way more justice. It even got to the point where, behind the scenes, I started to even REMAKE the game (not from the ground up, but enough heavy changes to warrant it a "remake").
Yeah, not a good idea. I really got into my own head badly with this one. A similar thing has happened with the currently unlisted side game. I started to feel bad about it being another FNAF 1 type, and then no longer felt good about the "score attack focused" approach. And, at the moment, I'm not sure where to go with it exactly.
Personal Life Chaos
For the past month and a half by now, my life has been hectic, with some highs and some rough lows.
I feel like my personal mental health has been taking a hit because of everything going on. I've started feeling lower motivation and interesting in doing things on here. Whenever I do get motivation to work on projects, it has been more short-lived than ever, immediately feeling unhappy with my projects days later.
To Summarize
All of it was basically an overload on my mentality, and I ended up pretty much going relatively silent. Lots of thoughts and emotions were going through my head and I didn't know how to handle them.
But, we all have times like these in life, right? It'll get better and I just have to remind myself of that.
Plus, when I come back here it reminds me why I had so much fun with Nuggit's in the first place. I'm not perfect, Nuggit's isn't perfect, but it was never meant to be perfect. It was just a silly game I made for a series I love and for all of you who have supported me so much. Y'all even got KYRA HERSELF to play the game, which I still endlessly appreciate! This game got MUCH larger than I thought it would, and I guess it was a lot for me to handle, heh...
I apologize for the confusion everyone. Because of what's going on with me, I'll start going a bit slower, and do take some things with a grain of salt.
The Side Game
The side game isn't cancelled or anything, but I am struggling on what I'd want from it now. What I will say is that it will be getting a name change. Dweadful Dinin' is alright and fits the show's naming scheme, but I thought of something I personally liked better:

I'm also not sure if I want it to be it's own separate game now, rather adding it to the main Nuggit's as a separate (side) mode. But, we'll see what happens.
Conclusion
Despite everything, I would love to keep providing more nuggity content for y'all. Remember that I will always appreciate all of you who played the game, made videos on the game, gave feedback on the game, helped with the game, and everything you've done to get this game this far. Stay tuned as always!
