Hello y’all!
First of all, thank you for reading this, it will be a wild ride!
Ok, for starters, I wanted to clear up a li’l bit what the team meant to do with the update.
So, we made a small update to My Name is Mayo in the day we launched Mr. Massagy: You could use the disembodied finger from that game. We made it in order to celebrate that launch as a fun gig, no achievements were added and Mayo was a dateable character inside Mr. Massagy.
Similarly, with the launch of Birdcakes, we wanted to put a little, meaningful reference by adding Mayo as an in-game item (actually, it’s a very important item). And viceversa, do a little mini-game inside My Name is Mayo, and add a brand new achievement along with it.
But we ultimately miscalculated by adding a hard, shooter-like achievement inside a clicker game; and if you think about it, that’s just not cool. We apologize for that tasteless achievement, we honestly didn't see it. We’re happy some of you liked it, but it just wasn’t the greatest of decisions. And as a result, the achievement is now removed.
Green Lava Studios wishes to improve their development capabilities and maybe someday, create something bigger than our own Fenix Rage (Fenix Furia). But hey, life gets in the way, like with everyone else, and Green Lava just don’t want to self-fund future work with “My Name is Mustard” or something.
To Recap:
The little cupcake minigame in My Name is Mayo was just meant to be a fun distraction, but it didn’t quite land; and we gladly accept that. The big question here is (and this is where *you* guys come in): what should be done with this mini-game? Now that the new achievement is gone, it’s a little bit pointless. The devs are thinking about linking it to a leaderboard or something, but we want to take your suggestions.
TL;DR:
We thought the minigame would be fitting, it wasn’t really. Sorry about that. We wanna make something else out of it with your suggestions.
To end this:
Birdcakes took a while to make and it wouldn't have been possible without the attention all of you gave to My Name is Mayo. We are very thankful to this community, and it gives us motivation to keep making more stuff and things.
Cheers,
Sean Callaghan
