Game
Fnaf : Blackout
2 months ago

I've burnt myself out, hard


This is exactly what it sounds like it's going to be unfortunately. I've spent years trying to make a fan game I'm happy with, the last 2-3 years on just Blackout alone, and I think I'm sick of it by now. I hate that I barely have anything to show for it, but I can't open a project without just feeling exhausted, and if I do get motivation I spend so much time working that I just burn out of it because I know that when I finally do stop that motivation is gonna be gone. The most fun I've had from my *hobbies* has been things that have nothing to do with fnaf. My passion turned into trying to make something original while still fnaf, and to try and make something that I think is worth all the time it takes to make which shouldn't be my focus in the first place, but it's all I can think of.

I don't want to say Blackout and Fredbear's Resort are cancelled, I do want to finish them, I am relatively happy with how they are right now, but I wouldn't expect a release from either of them. I've considered even just posting all the files and letting someone else do whatever with them, models, MFA file, any notes or ideas I had written down, just so it doesn't all go to waste if I *dont* come back to them.

Right now I just want to try to focus on original projects and other hobbies I've wanted to get into but didn't out of guilt that I wasn't actively working on my games.

Sorry for such a long wait for nothing but I do appreciate the support regardless

I was bored, so... ManutKat.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

I mostly build 3D First Person Shooter game mechanics in Unity, and in this I'm just showing C4 mechanics I made for a little side project I am working on! :)

Hello my space friends! Now I added a space background to the ship. I love that space look but I still feel like stuff is missing. The lighting on the ship needs some improvements I think. Please tell me your opinion!

Art made for my friend @ungerbibs . Much love for this <3

Distrust - HUMERUS (with dirty shade) Papyrus isn`t small. It's possible that I didn't draw him well, but he crouched down and bent towards us. I'm still bad at moments like this

What Are You Doing In My Swamp!?

Now spruce forest monsters can vomit forest shields, but Brutal Castle will not stop!
