I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised to find my initial comment preserved, allowing me the opportunity to provide further elucidation on your inquiry.

Initially, I entered into an agreement with the esteemed “monster box” with a clear vision in mind. The task at hand was to craft a game akin to FNAF, encompassing not only the visuals and art but also the creation of intricate systems. I had the fortune of receiving assistance from another developer solely for environmental assets, as per our mutual agreement. Meanwhile, Smugs (monster box) was designated to provide suggestions for marketability and spearhead the marketing efforts. That was the extent of their involvement as agreed upon.

However, as development progressed, unforeseen alterations to the arrangement were made. Without prior consultation, Smugs took it upon themselves to assert direct control over the game’s direction and added new team members to the project, under the assumption that such assistance was indispensable. While I appreciated the sentiment, I was confident in my ability to meet the project’s deadline without additional personnel.

Throughout the development process, I meticulously crafted models and systems from scratch, investing significant personal dedication to create immersive in-game animations and intimate scenes. Regrettably, after my departure, I observed conspicuous changes to the iconic appearance of the models, a matter that remains shrouded in uncertainty regarding those responsible for the alterations.

Post version 0.6, unforeseen bugs surfaced, prompting me to surmise that these issues might have arisen from the introduction of new team members who may not have been thoroughly acquainted with the intricacies of my systems.

It’s essential to mention that my Source models underwent a conversion process for marketing purposes for others to use such as Source Maker, a decision made by higher-ups.

Prior to my departure, I extended genuine apologies for an innocently-intended meme post, aiming to foster camaraderie among the team. Nevertheless, a member of the team persistently spoke disparagingly about my efforts and dedication behind my back and within the community. This, among other reasons, contributed to my decision to part ways with the project.

Throughout my involvement, I maintained a transparent approach to my work, consistently receiving specific tasks from the project board, which I diligently executed. Nonetheless, there were occasional communication breakdowns within the leadership team, leading to challenges in meeting deadlines that they themselves had established. To address this, I took the initiative to work diligently and efficiently to fulfill those deadlines while also engaging with the community through various events to ignite enthusiasm for the project. It was a delicate balancing act, ensuring timely updates for players while staying true to the project’s overarching vision.

Subsequent to my departure, I pursued other projects and delved into developing my own games. Despite periodically checking the game’s progress on the itch page, I couldn’t help but feel disheartened by the constant negative remarks directed toward me. Nevertheless, I remained steadfast and composed, determined not to be swayed by the criticism.

One remark that resonated with me was, “Skyboi, you’re delaying the game by working on the game.” Ironically, it highlighted my unwavering commitment to the project, as I invested countless hours, tirelessly perfecting systems and content.

In conclusion, I hope that this elaboration provides a comprehensive understanding of the complexities and challenges I encountered during my tenure and subsequent departure. It is my sincerest wish that this clarifies my perspective and dispels any misconceptions regarding my involvement in the project.

Interesting.
