I made Shipwrecked 64, and other cool things. Not gonna be too frequent on here. Just wanna show some love to the parts of the community I've been less active on.

(ignore the fact i accidentally pressed unfollow like a chud)

lowkey too nervous to say this on twitter but I’ve actually been considering the chance of befriending the people I interact with on twitter like you and my other moots i’m just WAY too shy to ever shoot a dm 🥹

If it's smth you'd ever like to do you can feel free! I don't bite (usually) and I try to be friendly if I can help it. Of course though, completely your call!

It isn't at all mandatory, nor should you feel bad if you can't or don't want to, of course, just know I appreciate it a lot anyways!

[squeaksdcorgeh]

whats your favorite number

344. I will not elaborate on why

[squeaksdcorgeh]

I like the fact that I said a lot of Bucky's writing is projection because when HI-09 comes out all of his actions are gonna be automatically attributed to me i'm so fucked

i just really don't like him

[squeaksdcorgeh]

I kid i am kind of endeared by him but still he's pmo

[squeaksdcorgeh]

i just really don't like him

[squeaksdcorgeh]

psst squeaks 👀

i’ve seen you like my Tansy (sw64 oc) art before on twitter, I’m honestly curious on what you think of him, if you wanna answer ofc

I think he's nice! Admittedly I don't know that much beyond the art I've seen of him but the design is really nice!

[squeaksdcorgeh]

also, do you have any other creations besides your games? like stories you've written? i love these characters and i'd love to read more about them :)

Depends! Game development is my main talent and I spend most of my time working on that. I have written two short stories, being Room 103 and Wulf’s Recollection, both of which are back in 2024 (I believe there are backups on the BSB wiki)

I write a lot but most of my good writing is saved for the games and adjacent media. I sometimes write little short stories and such, but a lot of them aren’t my best work and I don’t know if they’re really worth releasing.

I do appreciate the enthusiasm though! Admittedly I just kinda feel bad because I do not characterize these guys as much as I should in the base game. HI-09 has some good characterization (at least I really fucking hope so LMAO) hopefully in the future I can expand on them even further. I keep having to remind myself people actually care about my weird little creatures now and they actually wanna know things about them LMAO

YOU HAVE A TUMLBR??

ok. i've been dying to know more about your characters. for example, i heard that bucky is a very paranoid individual underneath that friendly exterior? but i'm not sure if that's true since i only heard a third party say it.

if so. how does that paranoia manifest? what does bucky do to protect himself?

Well, Bucky is definitely a very paranoid individual, yes. It has been expressed before that throughout Shipwrecked he feels like a lot of responsibility is placed on his shoulders, and the player’s interference does really badly affect him.

This often results in bits like in Layer 2 where Bucky calls the player an idiot and tells them to go back. Although, he is still completely unable to do anything about it. This has dire consequences in HI09 as it turns out because in some cases he is worse off without the person controlling him.

Thank you for asking!

have you ever thought about sneaking shipwrecked OCs into Hotel 09? as a fun easter eggs or is that something you wouldn't do?

Or

Have you ever seen a cool OC someone made for Shipwrecked or Hotel 09?

It is something I think would be fun, but also I do fear their inclusion may make people misinterpret them as “canon” or whatever. I also worry about putting all of the characters on the spot (and potentially having all the potential negative elements of those characters being out in the public eye. I can take it with the canon characters but I don’t want stuff like NSFW material being made of my friends characters just because “they were in that one game I played”.

Out of most Shipwrecked OCs I’ve seen, my favourite ones (with a little bias here) are (in no particular order)

Patricia Polar + Da Sharks

Sawyer Seal

Roy and 42

Laurel Lamb

Laverne Loon (also IMRD’s portrayal of Bucky lowkey was so good I had to like actively write AROUND it with HI09 as to not plagiarize anything LMAO)

Silvie (I think that’s the name but my brain isn’t working rn oopsie)

RadioSignal (again I am rusty on the name ngl)

Jane

Sally Squirrel

A particular cat idk if I am allowed to name here

There’s a lot more of them I like but a lot of them have been shared privately to me by friends. There are also people who got their hands on HI09 lore and have made characters themed entirely around it which in of itself is incredibly fucking funny

1 - is that weird ‘:)’ video with the love poem to Brandon still canon? Because there doesn’t seem to be anything else exploring that plotline in the whole series and it seems to go against what we’ve seen of Olivia’s character.

2 - can you upload the legacy edition images of the flashes in Walter’s minigame (if that makes sense) I can’t find them anywhere, you also mentioned on reddit that a thisfacedoesnotexist face exists for Olivia (like Gary’s) do you still have it archived?

3 - how much was cut from legacy? Looking through the files there seems to be a lot of things that were just never implemented but were used for the re-make, was there going to be starlings other than the scrapped spider-blot. If so what would they have been like?

4 - is it true Vandal was planned to be a roaming enemy? He has a spotted jumpscare on the wiki, if so would he have any unique gimmicks? Also can we get some more info on no arm nick?

1. Nope, at the time at least I had just forgotten entirely Olivia had a family with a husband and children 😭 BSB2 was decently sloppily written, sadly

2. I can look in the morning. I doubt I have the raw textures on hand anymore but I can definitely still look around for them!

3. So, so so much. Around the time of Legacy I had nothing to really go off of in terms of a game design document or really any good developer practices, it was just me winging it and trying new things. Everything from a minigame of Giovanni and you searching for food, to a hide and seek minigame with Wolf kids, to a chase sequence against Hornz instead of a maze, to Bucky dragging Olivia’s body. A lot of these early concepts were just that, concepts. At the time I was gonna do a petscop-type thing, so very little effort was put into making it fun to play. So a lot of this stuff got cut for a good reason.

4. He was! Originally before the volcano level was added, there was a minigame where you would be dropped on and hunted by Vandal. He had animations prepped for it and he would basically behave like Giovanni. Sound sensitive creature with bad eyesight. This was cut for pretty obvious reasons. It completely clashed with the approach of making 2023 the “clean” version

Thanks for asking! Cool pfp btw!!

[squeaksdcorgeh]

so like. Don’t answer if you don’t wanna

but what was up with you and Pappo that one time?

Honestly, Pappo was just kind of a dick to me. He got the game a week or so early because we were friends and I trusted him with it. His video happened to do well, and his personality pretty much entirely changed.

He would do shit like vandalizing the Shipwrecked wiki, and generally just having a really shit demeanor around me because "I made your whole career". It got to a point where it was just unpleasant to be around him, but with a lot of it I was able to chalk it up to just harmless riffing, even at the expense of it being annoying.

April 2025, I hear about some stuff that went on in my friendgroup with Pappo. I wasn't really a part of it since as far as I knew me and Pappo didn't really have any bad blood. He just treated me like an ass sometimes and I just kind of got used to it. Regardless I was unfriended by him and such despite my lack of involvement in like, pretty much any of this.

In his Digital Circus video, he then went on to claim that his appraisal of Shipwrecked 64 was for money and views, and that he secretly hated it or whatever. I know for a fact this isn't true because I have a recording of him being brought to tears by the ending of the game. So the sudden switchup rubbed me the wrong way entirely, and I think it is kind of fucking insane that I am catching strays by him despite being probably the least involved out of literally anyone in any of this.

So that is what happened between me and Pappo. I guess while the writing was on the wall I just am so curious what I did to warrant being dragged into this to begin with. Can't really say I miss it.

I'm not opposed to him learning and getting better. And it looks like there has been attempts to rectify his content to something positive. I just hope he doesn't treat any of his current friends the way he did to me.

Just got to edit an ending cutscene for the first time in almost 3 years..... dear god i'm back home.

[squeaksdcorgeh]

bullshit I made earlier today instead of working on my 2-years-into-development game

[squeaksdcorgeh]

How much will hi-09 cost?

$8 USD! Same as Shipwrecked. I wanna keep the game as cheap as possible as to not price out anyone in the audience out of the game, but at the same time I do wanna stay realistic since this game is the only thing currently paying the bills.
