In no particular order. Honorable mention to Petit Computer, which is more of a tool than a game so I didn't include it.
I haven't even finished Spelunky, Chip's Challenge, Outlaws, or Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, but that hasn't stopped them from becoming favorites of mine!
It's amazing to me how you can get away with the worst graphic design work in the world when all your sprites are tiny and dithered and your game isn't supposed to look very good to begin with.
I'm not sure what's weirder. The fact that Baldi's Basics is now 5 years old, or the fact that random kids have had this strange bald funny man I came up with when I was a kid plastered onto their birthday cakes.
Either way, thanks for making the past 5 years so incredible!
The bootleggers better watch out, because the official mobile version Baldi's Basics Classic is coming along reaaaaal nicely!
Also I stink at basic math.

is the bbcr secret message "what good is a cipher if their is no contextual justification for its existence" or is this just like an easter egg or something
Look normally I let fans handle the Baldi's Basics Wiki even if some things are incorrect, but I can't just let this one slide - That's relish. Chopped up pickles. Dill, specifically. Who the heck puts salad on a hotdog?!
Well, it's ready! I'm excited to announce the

! I want to make Baldi's Basics the best it can be, and I hope you guys do too! Please check it out and help spread the word!
Baldi's Basics has reached over 100 thousand downloads! This is insane, and I'm so incredibly thankful, humbled, blessed... I don't know what to say! I know I don't say thank you a lot, but trust me, I am so thankful for all the messages, videos, and comments about
#BaldisBasics
!
I'm a couple days late but Baldi's Basics is six years old now! I'm so thankful that, even after all this time, so many people are still enjoying the games and looking forward to what's next. Here's hoping it will only be a few more years until Plus is finished!
Here's a creepy little teaser I never uploaded that I made when first working on
#BaldisBasics
. I accidentally ended up with this while working with all the frames of Baldi's waving animation in GIMP. Slapped some comic sans on there and bam! Teaser!
I'M SO EXCITED I ALMOST FORGOT TO TWEET!! AAAHHH!
Thank you *everyone* for the incredible support! None of this would have been possible without you guys! I'll start working on the game super soon, and I can't wait!
Love you guys, and I can't wait to finish this game!
I was trying to clean up the project a little bit and deleted a folder of shaders called "Old" and accidentally deleted the depth buffer shaders used by the whirlpools. Whoops! Until the next patch just pretend the whirlpools have been replaced with a magical teleporting elixir!
Baldi has mixed feelings about pinball...

Today marks the one-year anniversary of Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered! Thanks to everyone who's played it. It makes me super happy to know how much people have enjoyed it!
Also, I have to ask... Has anyone found the secret message yet?
Trying to fix the bug that causes you to end up out of bounds when being sent to detention while getting pushed by 1st Prize, but somehow managed to get Principal of the Thing's head stuck in the ceiling instead.
Okay so I might be slightly addicted to one of the new Baldi's Basics camping minigames. I think, after all this time, I have finally achieved "fun minigame".
The

#Kickstarter
only has two weeks left, but is also already at 60%! It's pretty close, but it still needs some more pledges. To help spread the word, I've got a challenge! For every 250 retweets this gets, I'll unveil a new Baldi comic!
If anybody still plays
#TomodachiLife
, here's Baldi! Note that his last name is Baldimore because I couldn't think of an actual last name. If Baldi has a last name, I don't know what it is. :P
I just got legitimately jump scared by Pizza Tower I was just on the title screen and I was searching something on my phone and then Pizza Man screamed at me and the game force closed and I actually screamed.
This is gonna be a great game.
Oh yeah btw I'm still alive. :P
Things have been going well the past few days! The game is coming together nicely so far and I haven't hit any major roadblocks which is always nice! Anyways, since there's really nothing major to show yet, here's a weird pic I took while testing:
Every time I beat his score,

gets mad and claims the game "got the math wrong."
Thanks to everyone who's already bought an Angry Baldi plushie from
@Makeship
! It will be available until April 12, so if you want one grab it by then! ⬇️ Link below! ⬇️
I had the opportunity to speak with
@MatPatGT
several years ago and he shared some words of wisdom with me that had a big influence on the direction I wanted to take Baldi's Basics Plus. So thanks Matthew, I wish you all the best on your future endeavors!
This is the last week I'll be working at my old job. Can't wait to finally be able to work on
#BaldisBasics
full-time! It's pretty frustrating when your working on a game, getting in the zone... And then you have to drop everything and go to work.
Again, as incredibly annoying as the mobile ripoffs are, it's beautiful things like this that kinda sorta make them bearable!
I mean, just *look* at those hands!

#Bootleg
*Huge* thanks to
@CoryxKenshin
for finishing off the Kickstarter! You really didn't have to do that... but I'm so happy you did! :P
Anyone who hasn't yet, go check out his channel! He does some fantastic videos!
Recording session with Baldi!*

Just wanted to let y'all know that I'll probably have version 0.4.2 out next week. It won't have as many bug fixes as 0.4.1, but that's because I've begun working on new stuff. In fact, I've already finished a new item and I think it'll be the most versatile item to date!
That's a wrap! Thank you to everyone who helped, even if it was just a retweet! I couldn't have done this without you, and I can't wait for you guys to play the game once it's finished!
Happy 4 years of Baldi!
4... 4 years...
...Oh sorry just had an existential crisis there. Anyways, I don't have anything special to announce today, but I will have news regarding BBCR and BB+ very soon!
Thanks again for being patient everyone. I definitely feel weird about...
Don't know how I haven't tweeted about this before, but seeing
#BaldisBasics
merch on store shelves next to Kingdom Hearts figures is, so far, pretty much the most surreal moment of my life.
A few fun facts about the update to the field trip demo: The new character is named Cloudy Copter. Because it's a cloud. That looks vaguely like a helicopter. :P
The reward you get is based on your score. If you get a score of 50,000 or above, you'll get the best set of rewards!
Surprise! I'll be a bit too busy with some IRL stuff this next week to do work on the game so I decided I'd just release version 0.6 today instead of Monday! Watch out, I heard there's a bug where Diet BSODAs will be lost when saving and quitting. Sorry about that!
#BaldisBasics
Plus version 0.6 is available now! This update introduces the Pitstop, storage lockers, Diet BSODA and several improvements to the game's presentation!
Just a heads-up, the Baldi's Basics Plus 0.6 early access will be released to backers on Monday, and the public release should be out a week later on July 15!
Baldi sure loves numbers. I bet he'd love it if everything could be represented by a number..
(This message was scheduled and may not accurately reflect progress/lack thereof)
Well, I was hoping to have a thing ready by today, but sadly stuff is taking a little bit longer than I thought. Hopefully early next week!
Also, disclaimer, it's not Baldi's Basics 2, but it is Baldi and there *will* be something new to play!
Anyways, have another teaser:
1 year ago today I released
#BaldisBasics
in Education and Learning. Thanks to everyone who helped make the past year so crazy! I never expected the game to go anywhere, much less change my life! I'm so thankful to God for blessing me with the opportunity to make games as a job!
Here's something new that I just got pretty much fully working: Subtitles! They change location and sized based on the direction and distance of the sound's location. I did this because listening for noises and where they're coming from is an important aspect of Baldi's Basics.
#BaldisBasics
has recently reached *one million* downloads! Again, I am beyond thankful for all of this! I'm thankful to you guys for the support, I'm thankful to all the people who have played, and I'm thankful to God for this great blessing!
3 years ago today I started working on the original version of Baldi's Basics! I never expected that now I'd be developing a full version. I'm still so thankful that I'm able to do this for a living!
I've got some fun stuff I'll be announcing soon to celebrate, so stay tuned!
I finished finalizing all the main details on the next Baldi's Basics character this week! It's been so nice to be able to just spend time writing down plans and fleshing them out into the game design document. Making me even more excited to finish Baldi's Basics Plus!
The year is 2097. I'm 99 years old, lying half-conscious in a hospital bed. The nurse comes in and tells me someone's here to see me. I turn and look at the guest, who walks up to me and, after a short pause, asks
"What's the answer to the impossible question in Baldi's Basics?"
Spent the entire week like this editing all the Dr. Reflex photos but I finally finished today, crunched them into sprites, and even had enough time to implement a couple animations in-game and WOW they turned out better than I thought they would! Can't wait for y'all to see it!
The Dr. Reflex plushie from
@Makeship
has reached its goal of 200 units! Thank you all for the support, I'm so excited that this plushie is getting made!
The tweet has hit 750 retweets! Time for another one of my original Baldi comics!
This one is probably a bit easier to follow than a lot of the others. Basically, Baldi walks up to his son (At this point in time, him having a son may or may not be canon.) who is watching...
I'm convinced that Steamed Hams was one of the greatest memes ever. It brought out tons of peoples' creativity, never felt cringey or overused, and came and went as gracefully as aurora borealis. I'll miss it...
Good grief I just realized I'm getting sentimental over a meme.
