The Gamejolt situation


So when I opened up Gamejolt today to post that beta testing was nearing completion, I was met with the news regarding the Gamejolt team and what appears to be censorship of creators who criticize them on their changes to the website.

As a smaller creator, I was worried about whether I should even discuss this. I have little reach as is, if I spoke out against this supposed censorship, my chances of being discovered by the wider fangame community would go down the drain.

But if these claims are true, I don't want to just sit on the sidelines and do nothing.

My only concern is that I don't know what to do. Especially since I have so little reach. I've seen others mention moving to itch, but I don't know anything about how to post games on itch. Plus setting up an account and all that. It's a hassle I don't feel like doing unless there is no other choice.

All I will say is, if the allegations of Gamejolt censoring creators who have criticized their recent website changes are true, then I am strongly against them.

I just hope that whatever is going on sorts itself out and everything turns out ok in the end.

Next up

I'm officially beginning production on a sequel to Tony Rex's Dino Diner.

I am also looking for help with development, more specifically, help with coding, since my Clickteam skills are still pretty basic.

Feel free to reach out if you want to help!

I've been working on animating the jumpscares.

They can look really funny from alternate angles.

And that should be all the cameras set up.

Still a ways away from completion. Not even at the demo stage yet.

Have some teasers as a treat.

Happy International Dinosaur Day!

Since I'm making a FNAF fangame all about dinosaurs, it's only fair to give you all something to celebrate.

So here! The main cast of the game all together!

That's right! After a long wait, the game has been Beta Tested! Shout out to @Axos_Games , who provided most of the feedback and glitches I needed to patch.

I should have the full game out soon!

Oops! Looks like someone overslept and was late to the photoshoot! Hopefully, he didn't block too much!
