It works cause voldritch is a sweet bean. 

I'm Bloof and majority of my professional life is animation/video editing but for fun I mostly produce mindfulness videogames that aren't the kind of minimalist apps you see everywhere. I like to have characters and a story for my work that people can connect to, to make the experience more real. I sometimes explore themes not normally seen in relaxation apps such as scifi and aliens. 

I also compose ambient music and use dreams as inspiration for my work.

I use Gamemaker and also have my friend help me with Renpy Visual Novels. I wish I had more to post but I'm pretty new to gamedev and mostly just make very simplistic cozy games or yume nikki fangames. 

The tournament showrunners were dealing with a lot behind the scenes so ended it. I never found out whether or not I won round 2.

Technically he’s in his 40s by now. He’s too old. He doesn’t even have savings or a mortgage.

I think you guys got a dirty mind. the sprite is fine, you can see his sleaves 😭😭

Literally everyone thinks he’s wearing a tube top 😭

Yeah I wouldn’t say play this game as first to hypnosis. My other games are for first timers. This is more for people seasoned in doing hypnosis.

Abandon all your hopes and dreams and make fruit island slop now on Tiktok if you want an AI following. 

You made this bed now lay in it. I don't know why you thought indie sites support AI?

his suffering brings me comedy

Finished the entire game.  Need a horse challenge level.

The OCT was cancelled 😭

Yeah it's a guided relaxation script. I found confusion hypnosis works better for poor attention. Just gotta find your own thing.

I made a barebones  one but it resets if I renamed the OG file so I can't rename it.

 Well it works... 

Oh you'll love my game, it got psychedelic borzois. 

1. Would you do it?

None of my games have mass appeal so it would have to be a small studio.

2.   How would you do it?

How I did most of my art gigs, just cold emailing because I'm just like that.

3.   Would you lose creative control?

I'm sure there will be a fight over the higher ups wanting to make my games a romance VN lol

4.   What  size royalty would  you expect?

Enough for a sandwich 

Maybe $200 - $300ish factoring in I bought Gamemaker and promoted it? I honestly don't know. I probably spent more on take out 😳

Looks like an issue on your end. It might be how you downloaded it or extracted it. The error implies something got corrupted or missing after being added to your computer. Could also just be Windows 11 being its usual self. 

that's just voldritch's secret mind rays

Yes but one is corrupted (I spent 4 months on) and the other would take weeks or months to recode...

it was literally made in 2013, I'm a millennial lol it was popular on deviantart so idk if other games were inspired by it

Ah its been 13 years since I released it as a flash game😭 I don't make much horror anymore but maybe one day!

Yeah wine is a bit finnicky. My friend who uses Linux says its specifically Wine32 or import it into steam and run on proton.

Mine is a yume nikki fangame + mindfulness app so if that's something you would want to try, feel free to. It will be more exploration based.

It's been a full 5 years since my game has been out but here's my silly relaxation visual novel.

Yeah, I’ve said to many users that you have to find a technique that works for you but i’m glad the silly lil guy gave you a silly time!

Todos dicen eso jaja

Usually people quit their jobs after their dream project makes them money to safely live off of, not before. And quitting in this economy? I'd probably just go back to applying to jobs again and promote your game when you have free time. Being at a soul crushing job with health insurance, good pay and benefits is a luxury. Most people can barely afford rent.

please tell me you guys don't use skim milk for your coffee 😭😭

what is the thought process behind the psychedelic slime?

"foot through the door" is being generous given the job market is really bad 💀 no one is hiring.

As someone who has worked in industry studios (both on game and non game related projects), most jobs out there are graphic design or multimedia designer and even those are limited due to the economy at the moment. A pixel artist job is a bit too niche, especially since most game studios are looking for 3D artists, though I'm being generous since even studios aren't hiring now. Went to a networking meeting since I did major in 3D and literally it's a job desert at the moment. 

My main and best feature of all my games is they double as mindfulness apps so hopefully they help you to relax lol

Made this little nintendo power game inspired page and have to post it lol https://bloofbloof.itch.io/oomy

I've worked on games in the past, making images and videos for them professionally but indie dev itself is just a hobby.

I have a teeny tiny fanbase that will give me a few dollars and a pack of gum. Idk what I did to receive them lol
