For this outfit DLC, we went with something a bit different. It will be out later than usual, just because we're getting all new character art for every character in the game.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3245540/Tentacle_Prawn_Actually_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_New_Game_Benefits_HD/?beta=0
Our final DLC of the year! Embark on a new journey to right the wrongs of the past, and make sure that weird, nasty time loop from the base campaign of Tentacle Prawn never happen(ed)s (again). Featuring five new part members and a brand new storyline!
Innsmouth is set to fall, because if it didn't, that would be kind of counter-productive and a debbie downer ending, but how it does and what happens AFTER is in your hands!
Planetkillerz now has no AI background art. This marks our second game which has been purged of AI BG.
To go:
- Dinosaur Shakespeare 2
- Geeks: #RestoreTheMillerCut

Coming July 18th.
It's topical, as one of the love interests in the game is Mark Antony, and the Romans created July. Never say that you never learned anything from a Furry Sim.

ohmygodthestorepageisup.
I'll be taking a nap.
I knew I forgot to put PR up somewhere.
I can't wait to see what fun bugs the testers find!
It's our annual Pre-Summer Sale Sale!
We have Furry Shakespeare: To Date or Not To Date Cat Girls? 2 on sale for the first time in forever.
Without going into my personal junk, about five to six life events hit me at the end of last year, one of which I had been prepping for. I/We already had decided to only work on Dinosaur Cousin Squad until it was ready for internal beta testers (which should be in the next few weeks), but with everything else that hit, it left me very emotionally drained. That and then you add in the Brain Fog, a loving reminder of my two bouts with COVID-19.
The point is that I'm thinking of moving Spooky Cat Girls 2 to later, if not Halloween 2025. Army of Tentacles: Assault on Unicorn Island, if not out by then, would take its place as the Halloween 2024 game. I do not think there is any reason other than current lethargy that AoT: Unicorns would land on Halloween 2024.
Cat Girls: IMT is looking good, but as stated, DCS takes priority, and even if we barreled through it before SDCC in late July, we still wouldn't feel comfortable releasing it until at least December, if not later (for personal reasons as well as wishlists).
We might do some weird, smaller game after DCS level rough draft is done but before SDCC. AoT: Christmas Edition has been thrown around just cause we were playing Lemmings: Christmas Edition last night. It would probably use the remaining art for Tentacle Prawn that we just never ended up using.
As usual, the news announcement is late.
Our second Rotation Sale of the year. Promo art late, as usual.
We're going to start doing smaller rotational sales of all our products.
We're trying out Rotation Sales. So, instead of just selling lots of stuff, we're only selling some stuff at a time.
Army of Tentacles: (Not) A Cthulhu Dating Sim 2 is on sale for the first time ever! Boy howdy! Complete the set!
While progress on Dinosaur Cousin Squad is going well (despite hitting an error as soon as we booted up the base code for the first time as one complete package), we were able to at least get a good foothold on two of the final four Paper Shakespeare games while waiting on the base code. We are very happy to be able to share the store pages with you today:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2762590/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Cat_Girls_If_Made_Today
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2757940/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Spooky_Cat_Girls_2
Cat Girls? If Made Today isn't a remake, but rather, a reimagining of the game if it was made with the game dev know-how that we have now, and with the storytelling and gameplay that we want to do. This is the first Cat Girls game as if it was completely unconnected to the other games, as the Keegan Quinn/Multiverse BS storyline is over.
Spooky Cat Girls 2?! is another experimental title: it is three spooky games in one. The first is the titular Spooky Cat Girls, the second is a Cthulhu Dating Sim that we've been calling the Dark Souls of Visual Novels, and the third is our Kaiju game.
Neither have solid dates yet, as we need to both launch Army of Tentacles: Assault on Rainbow Unicorn Island, as well as dedicate our time to finishing up Dinosaur Cousin Squad in time for Christmas - or before.
We hope you enjoy.
Until March 14th. So not weekly. Well, technically weekly.

We swear it is the final release date shift.
Guess who forgot to put up this news update this morning? To be fair: there was a doctor's appointment.
January 20th - February 3rd To Date Or Not To Date Cat Girls: 50% Off Dinosaur Shakespeare: 25% Off
Unicorns has been delayed due to the world being on fire.
The mad quest to make a game for every Shakespeare play is swiftly reaching its promised end, with the first being Army of Tentacles: Assault on Rainbow Unicorn Island. After that, maybe we can sleep.
Two are scheduled for the end of 2024, but the majority of work on those will commence after Dinosaur Cousin Squad has dropped. We don't yet know when that one will have a Store Page up, but we assume within the next few months. Both games were being prepped while Dinosaur Cousin Squad was being worked on, but DCS progress has hit a few fun new snags, so we might be able to finish before proper level clean-up is set to begin in a few months.
The final two are set for early and late 2025. One is a collaboration, and the other is another new engine, new genre game..... this time: a tRPG deck builder. In layman's terms, a party based tactical RPG with a card system. We've very recently begun pre-production and asset buy on that one.
Store pages for at least two of the final four adaptations will be popping up after Rainbow Unicorn Island drops on the 23rd.

Out now, along with a patch that fixes some character story repeats.
So, for a few smaller games in the past (including tomorrow's Dinos Shakespeare 2 DLC), we have used AI backgrounds. We had both in-house discussions about it, as well as extensively made sure that the singular artist we used for said games was being ethical in what she fed her AI. Scarecrows came out, and at the time, we assumed the generated art was made using the same level of care (as their prior art that we used from the same artist was painted), and while we have no reason to believe otherwise and do not wish to slander said artist, we will be working to attain new background art for Scarecrows. This might look like a combination of new and existing art or it might be new art altogether. Regardless, it will not happen overnight. We will not be using AI art of any kind in any future games. We apologize to both our fellow developers as well as our customers for any ill will gained via our actions.
Dinosaur Shakespeare's sequel-DLC (and final DLC) comes out tomorrow! We changed the gamjeplay up a bit because, when we got down to it, the stuff we had planned just was not working.
Anyways, hope you all like it.

As always, please report any bugs.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1923530/Scarecrows_of_Illyria/
AoT: Unicorns has been moved to January.
Hope everyone had a safe night!
Obviously, AoT: Unicorns is not out. It's my fault. I did not number the lines in the script for easier VO input. I'm a dork.
We here at the office hope that everyone has a very safe and happy Halloween!
Due to increased stress due to family medical issues and my own medical issues, Dinosaur Cousin Squad has been delayed until sometime next year. We're fast tracking a game that we intended to work on for next Halloween in order to fill its place, as well as working on the DLC sequels that we were going to do for early next year.
DCS could potentially be done by the rest of the team, but because it is the first game of ours in a new genre and engine, plus since I originally started making it as a Christmas present for my younger cousins, I'm trying to be as hands-on as I possibly can be. That just is not possible given my current stress levels from real life currently coming at me from all sides.
I promised them this game two Christmas Day's ago. Ugh. Well, it's going to be great when it comes out. This also gives us the chance to give the game a decent lead-in with a Coming Soon page, rather than just putting one up a few weeks before launch during the busiest time of the year.
So there's the trick. The treats are coming soon.

1) Dinosaur Cousin Squad/Scarecrows Update: The office is once again COVID free, but I myself am on a new pre-surgery diet and exercise routine to, hopefully, finally get done with medical crud once and for all. So what does this mean? We're working on Scarecrows as well as the first draft of Dino Squad's 25 levels. But we're going one scene/level a day for each. Dino Squad is still on track for the end of 2023. Scarecrows might actually be ready by the end of the month (given testing, etc.). 2) Aot: Unicorns: Halloween release depends on if we have all voice lines in and fully edited by then.
AoT Black Woods Editions up to 82% off! Very Naked Hamlet is 15% off! Furries & Scalies 1 & 2 are both 15% off! The Halloween Retail Sale is still going strong, too!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2254860/Inexplicable_Geeks_RestoreTheMillerCut/?curator_clanid=33017070 Get it whilst it is hot.
As Samuel L. Jackson once said: hold on to yer butts.
Due to a combination of factors:
1) Surgery recovery.
2) Family life events.
3) Quality dev cycles for various products. We redid the schedule today, and feel like we have a better grip on when exactly we can work on what specific projects.
4) Dinosaur Cousin Squad being a new genre and a new engine.
Unless otherwise specified, everything already not in production is going to be pushed to 2024. Geeks: Miller Cut, Illyria, and Rainbow Island are all 90% done and still expected to be able to be completed in a relatively short amount of time.
Everything else is non-priority at this point and is going to be 2024.
It's almost that time again! Which means it is that time again!

Three upcoming DLC-Quels!

Experimenting with a DLC format allows us to take both more and safer risks with a pre-established game. We also don't have the budget for three full games at the moment, and we're currently six games away from adapting every Shakespeare play (that excludes the entirety of the Henriad, which we're trying to do as one game - nine plays as one title). DLC costs us nothing, and we had the assets lying around. Some were made specifically for the DLC-Quels, some just were gathering dust. The third DLC-Quel isn't ready to reveal yet. We were thinking we could reveal all three at once, but forgot that one still needed to be submitted to Valve for verification.
New Games on the horizon!

Announcing Dinosaur Shakespeare 2!
Dinosaur Shakespeare is back, in DLC form!
Why a DLC-sequel? Besides financial reasons (paying the Steam App ID for a full title wouldn't be that wise right now), a DLC allows us to still put out a sequel while experimenting with new, yet more compact, gameplay styles for a future iteration in a bigger game set with the Dino Shakes universe. It lets us make a smaller Dino Shakes game, while still working on the larger projects of the year.
That and we wanted to.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727790/Tentacle_Prawn_Actually_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim
Look! A game! I'm amazing! Right before surgery, too! I deserve, like, fifty Gold Medals. Enjoy this quaint jaunt, straddling the lines between the Paper Shakespeare world and the Army of Tentacles world.
Scarecrows of Illyria is coming sometime next month.
It's early, yeah, but I'm also gonna be getting surgery bills soon.
This one is also a two-parter, with the main meat - the Barnacle Meat, if you are classy enough to watch Succession - coming next month.
Yes. We know.
Here's a sale anyway.
It's literally still snowing here, but sure.
First off, it's really ridiculous that we finally got out the final Army of Tentacles. Yes, Unicorns is coming later, and Tentacle Prawn technically counts as a spin-off in the same way that the Mythos games do, but for all mentally stressful purposes, the trilogy is over.
Yes, that feels weird, considering the series began in 2016 and the recodes are still being worked on. Army 3's recode now only has 20 Arguments, and even though we're working on Dinosaur Cousin Squad exclusively after March ends, not working on any other projects is going to free up time to finish those.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1082690/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2
Next up is Tentacle Prawn, which is a mix of Paper Shakespeare/Army of Tentacles.....
Internally, we've been referring to it as Army of Tentacles 4, even though it's... really not an entry in the main arc. It has.... stuff in it, and it really is a true mixture of the two worlds, but it is its own thing entirely.
It's going to go live early April.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727790/Tentacle_Prawn_Actually_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim
Hey, everyone! Army of Tentacles: (Not) A Cthulhu Dating Sim 2 is out now because my hotel internet works! Happy Valentine's Day? I feel like I should write a larger post, but I've been in the air for six hours. The last game in the storyarc that started six years ago and meandered and survived due entirely to whimsy is finally here! The AoT 1 recode was put on hold, but now it should be starting up again next week. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1082690/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2/
There's currently an error where if you lose a battle, you actually win. We're working on it.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2153400/Scientifically_Accurate_Dinosaur_Mating_Simulator_2022_American_Revolution_1775__1786
Plus, a few release dates have shifted due to a very nasty flu. Not sure if it is Long COVID or just a really despicable bug.
AoT 2 is now March, and we're still debating when Tentacle Prawn will come out. It'll either release same month as AoT 2 or Rainbow Unicorn Island. We're trying to find a balance between financial sense and thematic sense.
Winter Sale
No one could have predicted this. Oh, and Dino Sim 2022 is droppig next week. Could be Monday, could be Friday. Or Tuesday. Or the other two. Just in time to miss Christmas as well as Christmas Eve. Blame the Gregorian Calendar and the constant shift of yearly dates for that chestnut. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2153400/Scientifically_Accurate_Dinosaur_Mating_Simulator_2022_American_Revolution_1775__1786 Oh, and a 2023 treat....
Army 1 and 3: The Actual Recode(s)
So, later on in 2023, the oft prophecized recode is happening..... the code for both Army 1 and Army 3 broke. The Steam versions still work. So that's the good news. If you buy it this sale, you will be buying a working game. It's just the versions on our end that need to be fixed. Which ultimately means that there will be a patch to both games later on down the line. I want to make it clear that both games work perfectly fine on Steam. If you were planning on making any purchases of the game or DLC this Winter Sale, feel free to do so. When the newest update to the engine that we use hit, it scrambled our 2016 Code bases brain. Without going into lengthy explanations, the base code for Army 1 (Utahraptor) was written in such a way that, if you push one domino, the whole thing is gonna crumble. We were young and inexperienced. Shit happens. While Army 3 came out pretty unscathed, it still uses the Argument/Word Battle code. So we need to redo it as well. The good news is that both games will have fresher, better code. We will be keeping as much as the base game intact as we can. We're also going to try our best to keep the file size to the same as what it was, even though we'll be adding a few new baubles. They will include:
- Updated Word Battles: Stats and abilities will now have a bigger impact on how they play out.
- New Army Units and Art: We'll have actual art for the Army units.
- New Level Up/Upgrade screens: For a better, clearer idea of how you're going to shape your army of monsters for the new endgame Invasion.
- Updated Shops and Stats
- Redone endgame Invasion system
- Redone DLC pathcode
- New UI
Introducing: DINOSAUR COUSIN SQUAD!
Our first platformer - made in GameMaker Studio 2. While we were going to shift the release dates for our current 2023 crop to get this out before Summer Sale, the version of base code that we got earlier last month still needed a fair amount of polish, and we didn't want to have our contractors work through the holidays. Our current investors were cool with the shift, but since it's going to need more time to cook before we can really start work on it, we're going to try to clear our slate of current investor projects before working on this one in full. Earlier in October, we had split up into two teams: Team Army of Tentacles - working on Army 2, Tentacle Prawn, and Unicorn Island - and Team Cousin Squad - working on Dinosaur Cousin Squad only. But because Dinosaur Cousin Squad has shifted, Team DCS has now taken up a new project that will also be officially announced next month:
To Date Or Not To Date Cat Girls? 2 is in development
While Tentacle Prawn is the game where we detail the relationship between our Lovecraft and Shakespeare worlds, Furry Shakespeare: To Date Or Not To Date Cat Girls? 2 is going to be a more standalone title that deals specifically with the various Furry Shakespeare tales we've been telling so far. For instance, we have an entire group that actually deals with keeping the spirit of the holidays alive. How do they fit into the overall lore? Do they also go to the same college for royalty that everyone else does? What about the Spooky Scary Halloween Spooky Times and Historylands crews? Those are retail jobs. Why do those exist in this world? But the most important question of all: can you date a Monarch Butterfly? Originally, Spooky Cat Girls? was going to be the canon sequel to Cat Girls?, but.... well, not anymore, obviously. Happy holidays.
Late Autumn/Black Friday Sale
A bunch of products are on sale. Yeah, we know iot is not the official Autumn sale, but better late than never.
New Frontiers
Last Christmas, I started working on a non-VN with input from my cousins, and the restrictions were that I had to do whatever they gave me, within reason. So now the Velociraptor has Telekinesis and the Pterodactyl has the water levels. It's going to be our first platformer, and our first game in a new engine. No idea when the store page is going up. Our 2023 slate is a bit packed, but we've got a good schedule and we have managed to fit everything in without burning ourselves out.

We're only eight games away from finishing our mad quest of adapting every Shakespeare play into a video game. Well, more than eight actual plays, but like Rainbow Hollow, we've got some tomfoolery up our sleeves.
So, not only are we planning on a third and final game in the main Army of Tentacles trilogy next year, we're also planning two spin-offs in the Paper Shakespeare universe. Shakespeare and Lovecraft, together at last.
We have sort of an ongoing storyline through all our games, and so far, it's been most apparent in the Paper Shakespeare/Furry Shakespeare ones. There's some reality/multiverse jank that's been threading through the games, which was have been affectionately calling The Multiverse BS (no, we only started calling it that when Marvel started calling their current films The Multiverse Saga). So, the idea here is that Army of Tentacles 2 will end that storyline and the next two games will showcase the consequences of a new reality being born.

It's all led up to this. Kind of. Maybe.
Combining the quest and battle mechanics of prior Army of Tentacles games with the magnanimousness of a college dating sim.
Expect to see it before summer.

Army of Tentacles is over. Long live Army of Tentacles.
The first game, but reimagined as Shakespeare's Trojan War play. Perry, Riley, Webster, Thatcher, Apocalypse Bunny, and more are on a quest to push back the invading Greeks and save their home.
Our first fully-voiced game since 2016. Expect it sometime..... later.
We had a few game announcements to make - we're seriously cutting down on content produced in 2023. But we have some announcements that we *think* round out next year alongside the already announced 2023 games.
But we felt Halloween was not the right time to make those announcements. We want as many eyeballs on us as possible (or as is possible for a small indie outfit), and we felt that Halloween Day was not the day to make such annoucements.
So tomorrow.
BUT.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1923621/Embers_of_the_Zombie_Battlemage_Halloween_Real_Werewolves_of_Massachusetts
Here's a small content DLC for Embers of the Zombie Battlemage that we cooked up over the weekend, adding a new Guest Path throughout the entire game. What are Guest Paths? Well, they are like Johnny Handsome in the idea that they are complete character arcs, but for guests. You'll need to figure out what section they'll pop up in each Act, though. We're not giving out Halloween treats in the form of spoilers.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727200/Kittens_in_PostApocalyptic_Fantasy_San_Francisco_Battle_School_for_Only_the_Most_Awesome_Monsters/ Get it while it is hot.
First off, why the delay? I finally got COVID-19. The silver lining here is that most of the teams for the next few games already work remote, and Kittens in SF is basically 98% finished. Which sounds relatively easy, but I have never felt this lethargic and aimless with any other cold or flu that I've had the chance of catching. There are maybe fifteen minute windows where I feel good enough to work on the game, but then those pass and I can't even think straight. Even with those fifteen minute windows, my body is constantly fluctuating between extreme hot and extreme cold. I can't talk, I can't smell, and while I still retain my sense of taste, it's dull in most areas but extremely punctuated in others. It's super weird. But wait, it's not all doom and gloom! While the game may be delayed, it won't be delayed that long, as I'll be out of isolation next week and plugging away to get you, the general public, your yum-yums. At the very least, I'll probably take this time to finish up work on some future store pages so we can announce some new products in the interim. Who knows. If you can, please get vaccinated. I have a mild case, but knowing it is a mild case, I would not want anyone to experience a full-on case of COVID. Because I can't even begin to imagine what that feels like. I also am still deep in recovery from a prior surgery, so these two factors combined are..... not great. The Halloween Retail Season sale is still on if you feel so inclined.

Kinda a reboot of Spooky Scary Halloween Spooky Times, kinda a sequel. This time in a Halloween theme park. It has the usual Guest Events, but now there is a combat section to gameplay as well.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1923530/Scarecrows_of_Illyria
What started as a DLC for Furries & Scarecrows has snowballed into its own thing.
We were going to announce these two with a special game that we had been working on for a few months, but that's not ready for a store page quite yet.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727200/Kittens_in_PostApocalyptic_Fantasy_San_Francisco_Battle_School_for_Only_the_Most_Awesome_Monsters/
Game's been delayed until August due to a combination of family gatherings at the end of July. Thought we'd be able to get it out, but it came down to just not feeling comfortable launching it and then leaving for a bit.
As Samuel J. Jackson once said, hold on to your wallets.
Kittens in Post-Apocalyptic Fantasy San Francisco is now launching on July 20th!
Amy of Tentacles 2 has been changed to February 15th, since that is the day that the first AoT launched. Time is a flat circle.
We thought Kittens in SF would be launched by now, so we set up a launch sale. It's not.
Here's the launch sale anyway.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1962990/Scientifically_Accurate_Dinosaur_Mating_Simulator_2021_Ankylosauridae/ Thus ends the month of stuff. Kittens in SF is hopefully going to be ready and in testing by the surgery date, in prep for a June release, but we'll see.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1824590/Furry_Shakespeare_Two_Incredibly_Ripped_Absolutely_Shredded_Noble_Kinsmen Out now.
This month
Two Incredibly Ripped, Absolutely Shredded Noble Kinsmen comes out on Thursday! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1824590/Furry_Shakespeare_Two_Incredibly_Ripped_Absolutely_Shredded_Noble_Kinsmen
Coming soon
Due to an upcoming unforseen surgery, Army of Tentacles 2 and Unannounced Dating Sim-VN RPG have been moved from October to December. Which sucks because Halloween season was the perfect time for both, but whatever. That's life. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1082690/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2 We have a replacement Halloween game that we're kicking around. Kittens in SF is still scheduled for June-issssssssssssssssh, but that also depends on recovery. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727200/Kittens_in_PostApocalyptic_Fantasy_San_Francisco_Battle_School_for_Only_the_Most_Awesome_Monsters We'll be announcing 2023 probably starting in August. We're in production of our first NON-VISUAL NOVEL. Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

This is possibly our weirdest Shakespeare adaptation yet.
It's Othello. But it's also set in a world of monster fighting. Also: collecting. So, monster fighting and collecting. You do both.
This is our first game with a new main gameplay mechanic in six years that's not just choice menu based. It was scary. Hopefully, you all like it. Because we plan on using it for the next few titles.
We've been waiting to show off some of these art assets for years. That's how game dev works sometimes. None of these were originally supposed to be mashed together, but you can't argue with the result.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1920890/Paper_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_2_Halloween_Edition Just an outfit pack. Get it while it's hot.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1824590/Furry_Shakespeare_Two_Incredibly_Ripped_Totally_Shredded_Noble_Kinsmen[img]
We were thinking about this for November, but that thing we were clearing the board for won't be done until April, annnnnnnnd we just got in a battle system for an unannounced game that we are {i}very happy with{/i}, plus we want to give the post-summer RPGs room to breathe....
So. Kinsmen is gonna be our game for Renpy Month, and then we'll work on the final three.
It's a narrative and choice based politics sim. We almost backburnered it because of the crap that is happening in the world. It takes place in the old school Elsinore Academy, but we felt the gameplay was different enough from the past Elsinore Academy games to warrant it.
To celebrate Furries & Scalies & Scarecrows launching, the first two games in the trilogy are on sale.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1152200/Furry_Shakespeare_Loves_Lizards_Lost This marks the last of our pre-summer games. Probably. Maybe.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1811920/Planetkillerz_death_of_a_world_in_five_acts I rather do like this whole "adapting games of old plays" gig. Here it is. I'm going back to sleep.
Furries & Scalies & Scarecrows OH MY!
