Long time, no upload, you FILTHY HUMAN WORMS! Just thought I’d pop back in briefly to MAKE YOU GROVEL BEFORE THE MIGHTY IRKEN ARMADA with some fanart of a precious show from my childhood. :)

A Feast For Eyes | DarkerDevotee

Made entirely over 72 hours for Ludum Dare 43 ("Sacrifices must be made") For most of the year, it slumbers, but now it's awake and drawing you back. It orde...

Someone decided to do a Let’s Play of my submission for Ludum Dare 43, which is...a surreal thing for me to watch. Kicking myself for not testing the game on multiple systems, since a text bug shows up pretty consistently there...but not a big deal I guess. 

Anyway, if you’re curious about my submission but don’t feel like playing it yourself, give this a watch. She catches both of the ‘good’ endings that made it into the game on time, but there’s still others in there if you then want to try it afterwards.

A (slightly late) Merry Christmas to you all!

For those so inclined, you can watch a time-lapse of my previous upload, with all the horrendous mistakes intact!

I was given the Ickis Pop Vinyl as a birthday gift this year, which uses a pretty cool redesign. So, I decided to try to blend the styles for a Halloween picture! Emphasis on 'try'. Oops.

It’s Second-hand Soup #41, “Quarter Life Crisis”! Sometimes your lifelong dream doesn’t turn out exactly how you pictured it. But that doesn’t mean your journey is over!

Whether you like Freddys or not, this is something pretty fucking awesome right here.

If I said when I was a kid “I want to make my own video game, all by myself, and there’ll be toys and Halloween costumes and lunchboxes at Wal-Mart!!!” someone would have explained to me that it doesn’t work that way, that games are products made by huge teams working for huge companies. One person doesn’t just “make a game” and be successful! That’s silly!

I’m so proud of Scott. Guy was working at Dollar Tree and near suicidal and felt like he was worthless, like God had literally turned his back on him, and he finally got his big break. That’s a Cinderella story if I’ve ever seen one.

[crtter]

I had already reblogged this because it’s so cool that an independent artist could create something so widely beloved, but I had no idea that those were the circumstances of his life when he made FNAF and as someone who’s on the same boat, this gives me a lot of hope.

[musashi]

It gets better–Freddy’s was an act of reclamation. He’d made a game and someone left a shitty review on it that said something like “This game is awful, and that beaver looks like a possessed animatronic.” and at first Scott was legitimately really bummed out & feeling dejected with that review, but after a while he was like, I’ll show you possessed animatronics.

Thinking about how that reviewer must feel now keeps me warm at night.

[modernluigi-deactivated20200204]

No amount of YouTube culture could ever discount the beauty of Scott Cawthon’s success story.

[heartlesssquirrel]

That scathing reviewer was Jim Sterling, apparently, basically reiterating the thought repeatedly until he ran out of synonyms because he’s a good reviewer. 

Unfortunately his response to FNAF’s success was to claim his previous review was just that inspirational. Or so I’ve had summarized...I honestly cannot make it all the way through a Jim Sterling video.

Sometimes, trying something different gives you just what you need. Other times, it just makes things different.

I had a lot of fondness for this guy when I was a little kid, but I completely forgot about him until recently. It turns out he got a bit fancier when the comics came around.
