Heyo! I just wanted to tell you all Thank you
Genuinely. This Game was just a small passion project of someone with way too much free time and no idea how to code a game and write a compelling story.
But even tho i was (and still am) extremely inexperienced, you guys continued to praise me and love the small game i made.
I’m extremely thankful for that.
now to some long needed explanations
why has there been no new content?
-> To be genuin I lost interest in the dsmp for a long time. As some of you
know I have autism and the dsmp was a long hyperfixation of mine. After
Quiet some time of working on this game daily, sometimes being so
Focused i forgot to eat, drink and sleep. It became a coping mechanism to
the otherhorrible shit that happened to me during that time.
It became unhealthy for me and made me burn out quickly.
To top it all off, the laptop i used to program the game died, and I had
nothing I could replace it with. It made me forcibly stop and look at how
bad I was treating myself. So I stoped working on it completely.
Sometimes I tried to rekindle my passion of this project by redrawing the
art, rewriting the story and just trying to program it in word. (As you can
tell that did in fact not work at all)
Are you okay?
-> In a way both. I’m in a much healthier environment then before, I’m
getting more help and I’m slowly working on my Traumata and becoming
better.
At the same time life always keeps going. Shit happens. Sometimes I feel
myself slipping back into my old habits, unintentionally destroying myself
in the process.
That’s just how life is. But I’m certain that it will get a lot better.
Is this game ever going to get continued?
-> maybe. I’m not sure. After seeing your reactions, my creativity and love
for this game kinda rekindled. I genuinly cried while watching
a fans YouTube video and it made me realise how much this
little project impacted this community. It made me realise that I indeed
loved working on it and I kinda wanna see what I can do with it.
At the same time I know how I need a lot of patience and stuff to do
that…
TLDR; i might pick this up someday again but I can’t promise anything
So yeah, thanks for listening me ramble a bit haha, and yeah, if any of y’all wanna pick up this project and do your own thing with it, DO IT!
You can use the code that exists so far and the existing sprites! If you do make something out of it….please send it in here (and maybe credit me for the art or smth. Not sure lol)
Here is the link to the discord server: https://discord.gg/PJbXjN8sAN (to get the code go to the channel #script the sprites are all in #current-sprites)
