Also since I tend to make cute but scary games, this one is not. There is one scene that's a little scary if you're scared of spiders, but the game has a bugphobia mode that hopefully fixes that haha (This screenshot shows what the flies look like with bugphobia turned on, the spider looks similar)

I keep getting this same spam comment over and over on one of my games on @itch.io . I keep banning them, but they just come back with a new account. Anyone else experiencing this? It's really annoying D:

So I found a new bug... 😂 Honestly scarier than the original, maybe I should leave it in /j

I'm not starting a debate with you in Lucy's comment section. All I will say is that I have eyes and most, if not all of the art on your games page is clearly generated. Don't bother responding, unless it's with a timelapse of you, your wife or your cat actually drawing any of these.
Ads for AI slop

"No reason" my ass. I bet the other devs just called you out because your "game" is a bunch of AI slop. Keep to your own Techbro circles if you can't handle the backlash from actual artists furious at you stealing their hard work.

For my game End Date, I put a display case with some of my other game's characters as figurines into the player's room. I've been asked about these figurines a few times now, so I thought I'd share a fun fact: They're all based on a 3D model of Fio. Here's a before and after haha
7 Fio (character from the absolute hit game 'Sofia?') figurines stand menacingly on a display case. They're dark beedy eyes stare into your soul7 slightly less cursed figurines stand on a display case. They're various main characters from my games put into my latest game 'End Date' as an easter egg.

Final goodbye (2023) based on my game "Sofia?"
A dark room, only illuminated by the open door. Crow's silouette falls upon the dimly lit room as Fio is sound asleep in his bed.Crow has a conflicting expression as he approaches Fio's bed, gun in hand. He says the words: "Fio... I'm sorry."Crow bends over the bed to give Kio a kiss on the cheek. He says "Farewell" as the page fades to black.
