Hey today I wanted to show something amazing from the Stanley Parable-inspired game I’m developing. Might be a long read so bare with me: at the end of my demo The Narrator is annoyed that the player presses The Button (in a game called Do Not Press The Button)! So he demands the player to send a 500 word essay on why they shouldn’t press it. I put this line in as a joke and didn’t expect to get anything, but funnily enough I’ve gotten so much essays which you can see here in the video and I decided as an Easter Egg to put a secret room in the FULL GAME where people can actually read all of essays that was sent and I’m sure there are a lot of Lemmy people that have sent one. In the video you can see small example of what people have written! It’s just awesome and makes me smile!

P.S. If you want to support my work and encourage development a simple wishlist of the game on Steam will make my day!

P.S. It was so funny to see someone playing the demo on their Stream and after they finished it, they opened a text file and started writing the essay, and you see new viewers coming in, expecting gameplay or something, and she is like “Oh, I’m doing my homework that this game gave me” :D

    I’ve been following this game for awhile and I’m really excited for it!

    Is it already/Are there any plans on making it steam deck compatible?

      From what I’ve heard its playable on Steam Deck but since I don’t own one I can optimize it a 100%. Maybe after the game is out and many people ask about steam deck I will try and get one and make it compatible . I’m really sorry I can’t do more right now

    Yup, I added to my wishlist after seeing your quality memes on Imgur. Sounds like development has been a fun time, hope the experience continues being rewarding!

      No that’s just Steam looks like these days. See they pivoted to being a low resolution image host.

    FYI your link to Steam is pointing to Imgur.
