Do not donate to my Boosty right now. The support team is genuinely incompetent and unprofessional.
Not only they'll block any donations for 90 days, they won't even refund the money to those who already donated.
Peak Unprofessionalism. Stuff like this should be criminal.
✨Hello, friends! :3
✨If you could add a custom character into my "virtual online school edutainment mascot horror game" (what a mouthful), what would it be?? 🤔
✨Throw a few quick (sfw) ideas my way so I can figure out what I'll need to prepare for such a donor reward! :p
✨Clarification for followers ✨
My game "Bukki Play School" will soon have:
A public Roadmap, GDD and Donation Page available!
And I really, really hope, I'll have some sort of "demo" prototype available by the end of August!
Stay tuned and thank you for following!!!
I wrote to discord support like a month ago due to them instantly disabling my account on creation.
They reply just now, a month later, telling me there's no account associated with that email and that they wipe deleted account data after 30 days.
LOL
I got room randomization "working" ✨
🙃the code is just:
foreach {
foreach {
foreach {...}
}
foreach {...}
foreach {
foreach {...}
}
}
I'm not touching this until AFTER I finish a prototype... or until it breaks, lol.

✨Hello, friends! :3
📣I wanted to ask YOU 🫵 what type of rewards would be cool if you were to donate to my crowdfunding goal⁉️
So far I have:
1⃣Playtesting Access
2⃣Name in Credits & Donor Hall of Fame
3⃣Free Game Copy
4⃣Donor Requested Custom Content
What else??🤔
i'll be opening a donation fund goal, and this is one of the rewards
you'll be able to feature yourself / OC / your pet / whatever
do you think this is cool? these NPCs will idle around the environment (but will also turn into enemies)
some feedback would be cool to have 😔

✅You can still chip in and share some character ideas for "students" or "pets" that could appear in the school!
✨I wanna figure out the range that could exist to know what I'll need for crowdfunding donor rewards :p

Really struggling right now with ironing out a crystal clear gameplay loop...
All this planning is unfortunately delaying all the actual development that I could show off
But it must be done 😔
Please bear with me, my friends! :v
i was clicking around, tryna do something with a model in Unity.
I click "open" and it opens in some 3D viewer and then this little terrifying thing opens at full screen.
This is not my model, I was not expecting a bee jumpscare. Thanks, Windows.
Previous game is cancelled...
and a new one is started instead :D
Unfortunately, the previous one was still too ambitious and is put on hold for now.
Here's a concept art teaser for the new one:
💖A huge thanks to
@wockytism
for their donation!!!
They're the first to donate for the tier "Playtester"!
Thank you so much! :3
✨If you wanna contribute early to my game dev journey as well, you can do so here:
I'm relearning linear algebra equations because... you know, it's needed for my edutainment horror game.
And I kinda feel nostalgic about them lol
and about school (I hated school)😭
I'm sorry but is Git really capable of just erasing my authentication credentials if I just enter the wrong ones?
Like, it just erases the old credentials and replaces them with the wrong ones? Now I cant do a pull request without doing setup again? What? 💀
I encountered a very serious problem...
I completely forgot what type of game I was making!
😭
So now I spent the whole day reviewing my original intent, which is to make a horror game.
Just learning about all the psychological aspects of fear to put into practice :3
@Phantom_TheGame
I'd say currently the hardest and miserable part for me is the financial and time planning aspect :v
I love learning about things and getting deep into difficult concepts but time and money is always a worry so yeah :p
@CyanTheShape
@thegamesarefake
I'm sure some of these games are in active development! And many of these concepts serve as inspiration regardless!
But for this specifically... it's in development :3
I wish I had 500k 😭
I can't even get any money due to my unfortunate circumstances
If I had at least 50k I'd be able to easily make my game, instead of scamming people.
Here is what a crowdfunding scam 500k+ and 6-8 years of little to no work gets Grummz/Mark Kern. I present Em-8er in 2024! I became a backer of Em-8er to give you a quick look at it. Please share before the Papa Grummz gets mad.
@CloudlessStudio
Don't worry about it!
Just make iterative progress, constantly reassess your scope and your current tasks to not get stuck in places, and post often about any progress you make!
Oh and consider lowering the scope of your demo, maybe making a demo of a demo! Good luck! :3
Okay but like, why does my mouse speed suddenly get weirdly accelerated and just becomes fast??
This has happened a couple of times in general, anyone else had this happen to them? :v
@TShelfman
This is something I've seen a lot. Reviews generally are supposed to be unbiased, like:
What is the game promising to you and does it fulfill those things?
If it does but you wished it was an hour longer, that's not reasonable for a negative review. (1/2)
@CloudlessStudio
depends on what you mean by "low scope"
I'd say undertale is "low scope"
FNAF is "low scope"
a lot of successful games, in a way, are successful due to limiting themselves.
Also, you can always add more content. But right now you have to focus on getting something out there!
@ToonSoulsGame
A lot of people seem to have already said what needed to be said:
1. Do not undersell the value of your game
2. 5$ at least should be the minimum price
3. Don't forget about regional pricing!
4. You can always put your game on sale
5. You can always make your game cheaper later
