Hello!
Thanks for checking out our weird little demo. To be honest, this is more of a proof of concept than anything. I (Austin) and the sole developer of the game and I only started making games in my spare time a couple years ago. In 2020 I got more serious about it and made 3 "bigger" games, including this one, Pepperoni Nightmares.
I've worked in a warehouse the past 9 years, being miserable, and didn't even try to make games until a couple years ago. Everything I've learned about game dev I've been learning on my own. Nearly every aspect of Pepperoni Nightmares is built from the ground up except of course the FMV videos which are all done by Patrick Peña. During 2020, we both had a really rough time, like a lot of people, and we got together to mash the two things we're passionate about into a game. He's an aspiring film-maker, and I want to make more games, so we decided to combine those two into what we have now.
The future of Pepperoni Nightmares is exciting for the two of us. We know we're inexperienced for this kind of thing but we're putting our all into turning this into a finished project. Getting it optimized is going to be a HUGE hurdle for myself, considering everything I've made prior were little bite-sized games. But we are committed to making this and hoping it turns into at the very least, a fun, flawed, cheap B-movie game with a lot of heart behind it.
Patrick has a lot of shooting to do and I will be developing about 4-6 more game sections and we hope to have the project finished by the end of 2021.
