I cuddled up with a friend and we took turns playing RoyP levels, slotting about ten in before our usual weekly anime watching. Unfortunately he is very much not a gamer, and he had trouble despite the game being so easygoing. Next week I'll probably handle the twitchy levels and let him do the puzzle ones. Anyway, he laughed at something in almost every dialogue, so that part was a success. :thumb:

Hehe, it's over 200k now :P
You know, it totally blows my expectations, BUT on the other hand I'm wondering how good that really is compared to other GamePass games? I mean, you effectively throw a "free" game at 20+ million people, isn't that just what happens?

Aww so glad to hear! Yeah I kind of wanted it to be like a Pixar or Disney of games, a game where both adults and kids can play and enjoy for different reasons :) We've been getting tons of parents tweeting at us so I feel like I did a good job :D
P.S. And it makes me SO happy to hear you like the dialogue. I did Headliner before which is like polar opposite, so this is my first attempt at "comedy" writing!

Oh god that reminds me of how Yakoob was gonna call the game "Pissin' Cloud" until we all shouted at you to call it ANYTHING ELSE. :laff:
I still think my original title suggestion "SOAKS 2 B U" would've been made this an EVEN BIGGER HIT tho. :cool:

I've been pretty quiet recently due to some personal and family issues (and impromptu travel involving my laptop dying immediately, of course), but there's been some progress on the game and we just announced we're working on DLC!

And on that note, we also partnered with The Yetee to make some Cloudy merch! First time ever I'm making merch for any of my games, so it feels like an cool new step (but also worry it wont sell and I'll feel lame, welp!)

And in last bit of slew of news, also released Steam trading cards for the game. I decided against going with just some nice custom character art and went for a bit more, erm, creative approach. Personally, super happy with how they turned out:

Heya, time has come that I'm looking for a few more beta testers for the Rain on Your Parade DLC! If you're interested in helping out (again??), shoot me a DM and I'll send you instructions :)
In the meantime, here's a little sneak-peek from one of the levels which... might ring a few bells ;p

I'm still wondering if I managed to drive you any sales by getting Mark Brown of GMTK to retweet your NTF joke.
