We have added the addition games to the Halloween sale!

Spooky savings for spooky people!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3262140/Furries__Scalies__Bears_OH_MY_Whimsical__Bright_Costumes_2025/?beta=0 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/2762590/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Cat_Girls_If_Made_Today/?curator_clanid=33017070 Why on sale so early? We're trying new tactics.

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

Welp, I misspelled 'Convenience'. Remind me never to make sales promo while woozy from a blood draw.

Changed/swapped out all of the AI-assisted backgrounds from Thirstspeare. Same game, new art! Check it out! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1627740/SHAKESPEARE_More_like_THIRSTspeare_amirite/?curator_clanid=33017070

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!

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. https://store.steampowered.com/app/427930/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim/?curator_clanid=33017070 https://store.steampowered.com/app/592200/Super_Army_of_Tentacles_3_The_Search_for_Army_of_Tentacles_2/?curator_clanid=33017070 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1431470/Mythos_Ever_After_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim/?curator_clanid=33017070 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1585450/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Spooky_Cat_Girls/?curator_clanid=33017070 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1627740/SHAKESPEARE_More_like_THIRSTspeare_amirite/?curator_clanid=33017070 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1082760/Paper_Shakespeare_Cthulhu_Coriolanus/?curator_clanid=33017070

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.

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.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2409020/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Cat_Girls_2_Prophecy_of_Convenience/?beta=0 With that, 2023's crop has been fully harvested. Have a safe and happy end of the year, everyone!

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.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1923530/Scarecrows_of_Illyria 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.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1923551/Tentacle_Prawn_Actually_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_The_Myth__Legend_of_Marauder_Shields Just some short story DLC that adds some lore to the world, new characters and new co-captains!

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!

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! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1112270/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2__DLC_2 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1112281/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2_Odd_WindowsOnly_EXP_Booster Enjoy some free DLC.

This one rounds out the three DLC Sequels that are hitting in the year of our Gourd 2023.

The Rest of 2023, in recap....

What's this? Announcing four new products whilst recovering from surgery? Well, they aren't huge, and half of them are already in various stages of production.

Three upcoming DLC-Quels!

New Games on the horizon!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2410350/Dinosaur_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_2_Winter_of_our_Discontent/ 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/

"This month" means February.

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.

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. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727790/Tentacle_Prawn_Actually_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim 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. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1877720/Army_of_Tentacles_Assault_on_Rainbow_Unicorn_Island 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.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1919090/Embers_of_the_Zombie_Battlemage_Halloween 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

Coming soon

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1727200/Kittens_in_PostApocalyptic_Fantasy_San_Francisco_Battle_School_for_Only_the_Most_Awesome_Monsters 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.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1800080/Furries__Scalies__Scarecrows_OH_MY Was going to wait until the sale is over, but then again, February is absolutely packed with releases. Thought it best to release now.

Much like Joe Papp (okay, EXACTLY like The Ghost of Joe Papp), this also was a play written in college. I decided to adapt it as a game because it felt like material that I wanted to revisit given I had just received some really horrible news. It helped me process the stuff that I was feeling inside, and the game itself goes over topics like death, religion, and mass planetary extinction events. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1811920/Planetkillerz_death_of_a_world_in_five_acts

If you or anyone you know is approached by anyone from Stegalosaurus claiming to be a part of a Counter-Strike tournament, do not click the link. It is a scam. I mean, we wouldn't be in a CS tourney anyway, but not everyone would know that. This also goes for, I guess, anyone in general. If you get a random, out-of-the-blue message about CS GO, don't fall for it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1082690/Army_of_Tentacles_Not_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_2 We've updated the Army 2 store page. Changed the name of the game as to avoid super confusion. Does this mean we're no longer doing the other Army of Tentacles game? Well, for that, you'll have to wait and see, but we figured out how to make it so both Army 2 and our other Furry Shakespeare RPG build up to a final AoT game (in the main storyline, I guess). We're very excited. Happy new year!

Happy new year's eve! Stay safe out there tonight. There are gonna be a lot of drunk drivers. Do not be one of them.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1806200/Scientifically_Accurate_Dinosaur_Mating_Simulator_2021 Happy holidays, everyone! Merry Christmas to those that celebrate! We'll be rolling out store pages for the 2022 crop soon, but here's a preview of our intended releases: 1. Another adaptation of a play I wrote in college, much in the same vein as Ghost of Joe Papp. Expect it Early February/Late January. 2. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1800080/Furries__Scalies__Scarecrows_OH_MY Launching right before our 6th year of being in business/not going out of business. 3. A Furry Shakespeare RPG with a fun new combat mechanic. Late May. 4.
Six years and the third game later, behold the second game in the Army of Tentacles trilogy. Taking place parallel to the events of the first two games, you are thrust into the role of the B Team - the misfits responsible for ending the world if Perry and their crew failed to do so. October. 5. A Furry Shakespeare Election Sim just in time for the November USA elections. So, two RPGs and a few dating sims.

Dino Simulator 2021 goes live on Xmas Eve! We have a new crop of games to announce shortly after!

Thanksgiving is over. You know what that means.

It's the official Steam Autumn Sale! Go, go, go! But that's not all.... https://store.steampowered.com/app/1800080/Furries__Scalies__Scarecrows_OH_MY Up first in for our 2022 slate is the third Furries & Scalies & Bears game. It's going to be a semi-return to form, as Furries & Bears 2 was a massive departure from the gameplay department of Furries & Bears 1. There's a bit of farming. It'll be a thing. Still VN format. We plan on four games in 2022, as opposed to the slew of context that has been put out in 2020-2021.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1585450/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Spooky_Cat_Girls Sometime this week. Expect Wednesday but bunker up for Thursday. No idea what 'bunker up' means. I assume it is related to 'It's Happening'.

Spoopy Cat Girls!

Milestone silly old game!

We have added a fancy new biz Twitter to our dev page on Steam. Follow us for all the sporadic game updates you can handle!

Halloween is the best. I can't find candy in stores anymore. It's not even October.

Doing things isn't easy. Video games are hard, as someone once said I forget who, but it's an actual quote. I think it may be from an executive. I dunno. Being a niche indie company is hard. Hired a new writer for Spooky Cat Girls?'s classroom scenes when it became clear that it would not make a reasonable launch date for October. It was either launch directly before the Halloween sale (and this was hoping Valve would accept the final build on the first submission, never something a designer should bet on) or delay it, and we chose to delay it. We feel December also fits in with the theme of the chosen play. Super Army of Tentacles has always been my baby, but it's gone through so many changes, due to gameplay as well as personal reasons, that I feel a disconnect with it. Rather than make a tentpole game that I do not want to make, I handed it off to another team member for a 2023 release. This would be the first Army of Tentacles game not helmed by me, which is exciting as I 100% trust my team and think it is time that we all grow in that fashion. We've been alive almost five-point-something years now. In the place of Super Army of Tentacles, I plan on making a new, full VN-RPG Army of Tentacles game. I feel much more confident about this one, and it will launch at the same time that Super Army 2022 would have. That will be announced soon, maybe with the other 2022 games. Maybe not. Who knows. Making games is hard.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1585460/Furry_Shakespeare_Oops_All_Dragons Only two more games to go this year. Maybe a few Halloween surprises. This is a sort of sequel to Sexy Centaurs in the same way Emperor Penguin Lear was.

Moved all the Joe Papp games into the Paper Shakespeare bundle, and now they make up two more Merchant of Venice games in the list of Shakespeare games we're making/have made.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1512370/Furry_Shakespeare_Dreamin_of_One_Lazy_Dead_Midsummer Out now. This one is very near and dear to us, and to me, because it was an idea that I had been mulling around way back in the wee year of 2017. So it was important for us to put an idea together for Midsummer Night's Dream that resonated. The concept of the summer camp slasher movie seemed like a fantastic juxtaposition to the play's theme of young (and naive) love. Next up: Oops! All Dragons! might be rearing its head for a late August launch, as the spine of that gameplay loop is already done.

We decided on this sale when it was looking like COVID was getting under control over here, and people would start returning to work in-person. I still remember last year, seeing the ads for Halloween stores that were opening and wondering "why the heck would people go to a store during a pandemic where they know for a fact that an entire body has touched the wares?". Still. It's a magical time of the year where we get ready for the final three months of the year. Halloween Retail Season doesn't just mark the coming of the next big holiday, it marks the beginning of the end. So get out those wallets and celebrate the way Capitalism wants you to!

- FIXED: Typos

- FIXED: Typos - FIXED: Code misspelling

So, we're putting the finishing touches on Midsummer, and without going into the gory details, a large chunk of the gameplay was vaporized from existence: the weekly slasher competitions. We still have the endgame slasher segment, and we have changed the game's story to put focus on an endgame segment rather than multiple slasher sections. We feel this is important as an announcement because our store page used to have language directly implying multiple sections throughout the game. The silver lining here is that we feel that the focus on a singular slasher section rather than multiple improves the general gameplay and story, as well as the "unique aspect" of such a section existing in the story itself. It was either that or delay the game for something that we now feel would have hurt the gameplay rather than added to it.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1701430/Mythos_Ever_After_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_RX___Other_Soundtracks_from_2021 So, it's not only the soundtrack for Mythos RX, but for every single 2021 game as well! As long as it does not have a dedicated OST DLC of its own, it is in here! There are even some from games that have yet to be released!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1579950/Mythos_Ever_After_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_RX Mythos Ever After: A Cthulhu Dating Sim RX is out today, on what would be the first day of a physical San Diego Comic-Con. My goal with this game was to make a short, inexpensive, and generally fun title that encompassed all of the "stuff" that normally goes on at an in-person pop arts convention. Like Super Halloween Times, it does get a bit dark in places because some of the content is based on real stuff. You know, besides all of the monsters. All data points to a 99-cent game selling, but like most of the stuff we do, it's an experiment. Of course, experimenting is hard to do when you're a small indie dev working on niche titles, but the risk on this particular title was pretty low. So we went for it. Enjoy.

As well as a post-sale sale!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1627740/SHAKESPEARE_More_like_THIRSTspeare_amirite Thirstspeare is out now! Venture forth as you, a young indie dev, must make a video game adaptation of Shakespere's first play, Two Gentlemen of Verona! It is less meta than it sounds. The first of two small summer games. The next is Mythos Ever After RX, launching on the 20th, which is what would be the first day of San Diego Comic-Con, were it being physically held at the center this year.

Recently, we got a new web hosting service, and as such, have a new tech support e-mail: support@stegalosaurus.com Good news as well! We're now in the permanent new office, and as such, won't have to do the delays that we thought we were going to have to do! We also are hard at work pre-planning the planning phase of the store pages for 2022's other two games, one of which is another RPG to go alongside Super Army of Tentacles. There's discussion on whether or not we should release the new RPG next to Super Army of Tentacles, and if we do that, SAoT will probably move to October. But there's also the fact that an unexpected expense means our plans for Said RPG could mean it is now 2023, and we would just continue chipping at our Shakespeare slate with smaller games.

Get it while it's hot. Also: wear sunscreen.

Yes, this would have worked so much better as a May 4th announcement. Missed that golden opportunity. Hey! Guess what? We're actually gonna stick to schedule this time! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1585450/Furry_Shakespeare_To_Date_Or_Not_To_Date_Spooky_Cat_Girls https://store.steampowered.com/app/1585460/Furry_Shakespeare_Oops_All_Dragons As well as two smaller games: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1579950/Mythos_Ever_After_A_Cthulhu_Dating_Sim_RX https://store.steampowered.com/app/1627740/SHAKESPEARE_More_like_THIRSTspeare_amirite

To celebrate the release of Furries & Bears 2, we're throwing a tiny sale for anthro creature games! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1349170/Furries__Scalies__Bears_OH_MY_2_Return_to_Kale_Bay

- Code touch up.

So. Dunno if this announcement is really warranted. Just want to let people know what is going on. Super Army of Tentacles: (Not) A Cthulhu Dating Sim has three main mechanics: skills/attributes, Word Battles, and Armies. Well, it did. See, I started work on the project when things were.... let's say, different in the USA, and that, in turn, fueled the direction of the thing. We had already wanted to do something new with AoT 1's army mechanic, but do it better than the first game. Do it with all the game dev we had learned over the years since we've started. So I felt that my internal anger was a good fuel for said mechanic. Who doesn't love a good 'throw out the bad guys' story? While the main story of the game is still 'the humans somehow occupied Monster Land', after recent events, I just don't feel good about a mechanic where you pre-meditatively build up militias to take over areas. We talked about this, and the bottom line is that we feel that even though the Army mechanic would have been solid, it would have taken away from the main gameplay loop of the first two games. Even though there was a final Invasion mechanic in the first game, the way you recruited your army was never the focal point. The focals were the Word Battles. At the end of the day, real people make games, and we don't want to be making a game that we feel isn't up to snuff or is pushed in two different directions. This is the last in the trilogy for us. We know more now and want to do it right, as both a stand alone title and a series cap. This also allows us to put greater focus on the idea of reactivity to your choices in the world's hubs. Which is cool. I'm writing this because, even though it wasn't the selling point of the game or even showcased in screenshots or the trailer, it was in the initial store description and there were shots of it in the trailer and on the screenshot gallery. We've already updated the gallery, but will also be updating the trailer shortly. This really doesn't affect the already delayed release date of 2022. If anything, it clarifies a release date. If anything, at max what it means is this will release post-summer 2022, but I honestly don't think that's a concern.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1349170/Furries__Scalies__Bears_OH_MY_2_Return_to_Kale_Bay We hope you enjoy the sequel. We thought it would be the last FASABOH!, but we have something in the back of our heads that itching. As always, depends on how well this one does. This dev cycle was odd, as this sequel is not under the commission that the original was. It's entirely on our own. It was weird going back to a world that was, at the start, not entirely ours.

Meant to post this sooner, but I have been super sleepy thanks to the COVID shot. I am very glad that I got it, though. Furry Shakespeare has a DLC that is 20% off starting tomorrow, not today, and that was an error on our part.
