Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass

That was really pretty! And the ending confused the hell out of me, haha.

Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass

That's very sweet! Thanks for sharing!

Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass

No, I'd have to gut most of the game and change the central storyline to make a kid-friendly version of Jimmy; I'm glad he thinks it's cool, though!

I have thought about doing a game that's targeted more towards a younger audience, though (probably not 4--that's REALLY young); it's in my idea file, and I have some pretty cool concepts that I'd like to work with. The next game, though, isn't going to be that, so I'm not really sure when I'll get to it. I have a lot of ideas, and full-length rpgs take forever, haha.

Weird and Unfortunate Things are Happening

Yeah, it took me about a day to figure everything out; mainly needed a lot of art assets. Wasn't Remnants of Isolation on Steam? I bet she's already got some experience unless she left that up to Red Nova or Sooz.

Edit: But, yeah, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

If you're afraid of it getting too big, I wouldn't really worry. Like, you wouldn't have to maintain a community around it. If it got too exhausting, you could just post that you were done updating the game and answering questions about it and put blinders on to that kind of thing if it gets too overwhelming. If part of you does want to turn this into a career, though, then I wouldn't prematurely end that for a fear. Jimmy's success hasn't made me change how I make games; I feel like I'm on the same trajectory as I've always been, and I only spend like 5-10 minutes a day with online stuff; the fans mostly do their own thing.

Not yet! I'm waiting to get further in development before I set something up, but you can follow me on Twitter @KaseyOzymy, where I will give an update every few months and post a song every now and then.

Thank You for Voting for Weird and Unfortunate in the Misaos!

Congrats! You deserve it!

Weird and Unfortunate Things are Happening Review

Yeah, the exploration was super fun, especially in the final few levels. I just never knew what to expect, and the addition of finding loot made it consistently rewarding. This game really deserves all the praise it's getting.

Oh, and my next game is going to be fucking sick. Going to be a million years before it's out, but I'm excited about it!

Weird and Unfortunate Things are Happening Review

Yeah, I enjoyed this game so much. I think that you hit the nail on the head in your penultimate paragraph. Weird and Unfortunate really resonated with me as being a solid fusion of Yume Nikki-style abstract world exploration with rpg mechanics. Really felt like I didn't know what I'd see next, which, for me, is the heart of most good rpgs--the thrill and wonder of exploration.

Holy crap, Malandy!
