I’m Not Dead.


I seem to have dipped for more than a year now. I am becoming increasingly worried as I type this, because anxiety is crushing my game development career. Also my page looks cluttered as hell with my ramblings, eugh.

So, what happened to UNNAMED PROJECT?

Yeah, that Yume Nikki/Middens style surrealist game. I have lost interest in it in almost exactly the same way as I did with the Backrooms game. I also don’t see any significant potential in that project, it’s literally just a pretentious freak show that relies on its visuals to sustain itself, and nothing more. I’m terrified to say that I am no longer working on it, but it’s the truth.

What’s next?

I’m going into a quiet phase. Not necessarily a retirement, but not really a time of productivity either. I’m working on a massive, secret new project and unlike any of my other two games, this time I want to add some proper substance, gameplay and story to it. Why is it secret? It’s for our own good.

Sorry for my pessimism. I’m still so terrified to hit the post button.
