Hello everyone! ^_^

Got a new version of the 60% Release uploaded. The biggest fix is that I've overhauled the encounter rate for the school, which is the biggest area and wore out its welcome for a lot of players due to the size and amount of encounters. Now you'll encounter about half as many battles and the enemies give more EXP (and the bosses more obols) to compensate.

If you're still playing the initial 60% release and haven't gotten to the school yet, you may want to download version 1.11 and move your saves over for a smoother school experience.

I am so excited to announce that the 60% Version of Weird and Unfortunate Things are Happening is now live and available for download!

If you still have your original save file from the old demo, you can move it over to the new release and continue the game from there. Unfortunately, I goofed, and the game still replays the ending of the demo before letting you continue the game ^^;; It still works otherwise.

I can't believe it's been almost three years since the original demo released. It took me quite a while to get this version finished, but I'm so glad it got done. A huge thanks again to all the testers for a ton of wonderful feedback and a lot of cool fixes and corrections that made the game play better. And here's hoping I can get the rest of the game done faster than this part took me XD

Thanks again everyone, and please enjoy!

Hello everyone. I've been putting off this blog for a long while, but I've come down with some medical issues that make doing creative work really, really slow right now.

On one hand, the release is really, really close to being done. Gameplay and graphics are all done for the 60% release. All that needs to be done is some dialog tweaking and a bunch of eventing to get the rest of the scenes from the script into the actual game.

But for the past two months, I've been confined to bed. I've gotten to the point where I can slowly work on games again, but it goes so slow right now. I don't know when I'll get back to normal but it could be months, so please be patient with me right now.

The last thing I wanted to do was announce more delays. But hopefully I will get back to normal soon and back to making games at my regular pace.

Wow! This Saturday, it will have been two whole years since I started this project! How time flies!

I wish I had been spending 100% of the time available during these two years developing the game, but the truth of the matter is, I spent about half a year on unrelated side projects (>.>;;;) and another half a year was pretty slow because of job loss and getting used to another job.

But still! Things are progressing pretty smoothly now, and I've gotten my productivity back to about where it was before. So let's check up on the game's progress so far! Progress-o-meter, I choose you!



Some things to notice: First, I've added two levels: One, "Another Street," which links the area behind the clinic to the Neighborhood level more smoothly, and an upcoming Sewer Level to link the area around the Middle School to Downtown a little better (also, a small bit of the story has been moved there for pacing).

Also, if you look at how the meter has filled up, it looks like I'm about half done with the game, right? However, I don't think that's entirely accurate, as Chapter 4 and especially Chapter 5 will be a bit longer than the previous chapters, despite the fewer locations listed (and they're listed pretty vaguely to keep things mysterious) so I'd say I'm closer to maybe 40% done with the project.

After I complete Chapter 3, I intend to release a final demo of the game. This will contain a good 50-60% of the game, and will hopefully hold you over until the game's full completion ^_^ I am aiming for an early-to-mid 2018 release for this final demo, with the full game hopefully releasing late 2018 to sometime in 2019, though its hard to predict exactly when it'll be done.

I know I haven't been releasing many new screenshots or sneak-peeks, but I want to keep a lot of the content hidden for when you actually play the game.

So there you have it! I am super excited to share this game with you and all of its little secrets, and I'm hard at work getting it done. Thanks again for following this project and I'll see you next time!

Hello everyone! Sorry for being mostly radio silent on the progress of this game!

2016 was a bit nuts for me. It's been almost a year since the demo was released, and while I've still been working on the game off and on since then, a heck of a lot of my time for the rest of 2016 was spent on a long series of collaborations.

Several of the collaborations still haven't been released, but the ones that got a release in one state or another are: Bloody... and To The Tower's Top for the Swap in the Middle With You event, Ascent with Ziggy and Jo for the 3rd McBacon Jam, and Remie and Alana with Ocean and Kloe for the Yuri Jam. Then 2017 rolled along and I had a bunch of ideas for quests for the Winterruption game and ended up making Quest Questers.

The long and short of it is that I've been a very distractable dev and thus this game has been somewhat neglected. But that's changing! I feel like I do my best when I can hone-in on a single project and since Quest Questers, I've been spending all my dev time working on Weird and Unfortunate again! I'm very excited about the results, and should have several new screenshots to show you very soon!

While I originally wasn't going to do any more partial releases and just finish the game, given the delays, I think it would be a good idea to have another released demo with a good chunk of the game released sometime this year and have the game finished, if all goes well, in 2018.

Thank you all very much for your patience and I'll try very hard to keep any side projects to a minimum! (I get easily excited by RMN events >.>;;;;;;)

Thanks so much for following this game and I intend to work hard to get more content to you as soon as I can!
