Hey guys,
Thank you all so much again for the incredible support. Every time I come to this thread, my heart fills with joy, and my head with dreams. I’m mind blown that a 15min game got so much traction, that so many people keep coming back, and that you’re asking for more…
And I start wondering about all the “what if…?”s.
Ever since I released Karen WTF, over a year ago, I’ve been toying with the idea of creating a proper AVN. I keep dipping my toes in, like a shy kid standing by the pool, not quite daring to jump in yet.
When I’m feeling blue, or when life hits me in its own lovely, unexpected, and shitty ways, I open Unity, Daz3D, some AI tools, or Obsidian, and just start playing around. I mostly do it to lift my mood and keep going through the inclemency of events and the passage of time. I treat it as a hobby, a something I might release one day and bring to this forum, just like I did with my first game.
And that’s how it’s been for more than a year now. And, oh boy, before I even realized it, I found myself with 3D environments, a full-fledged GUI in Unity, a few fun arcade-style minigames I built myself, more than a dozen gorgeous Daz3D models… and LOTS of ideas. I’ve drafted background stories for most of the characters, scripted dialogue, and planned out scenes.
It’s reached a point where the “what ifs” are slowly turning into “when this thing is released…”.
Sometimes I can’t contain myself, and I share some of the ideas I have with friends and family. I get so surprised when they encourage me to push this forward and make it happen. They see that, as silly as it may sound, creating an AVN makes me genuinely happy and lifts my mood so much that I think they’re even more excited about it than I am.
So I think I’m going to push it forward: My next game. Something that will bring scenes as silly and absurd as “Karen WTF”, but with some more grounded moments too.
I’ll try to stay more active, probably create a proper “dev thread” for the new game. For now, I hope you don’t mind me being a bit cautious. The only thing I’ll say at this point is that it’s not related to Karen WTF. Instead, it will happen in a galaxy, far, far away…
After Christmas, I’ll put together some things to share with you, so you can help me shape where this goes and keep me on the right path.
