ːsteamhappyː hey guys, it is very unfortunate for me to announce that FUNKY FIGHT will no longer be in development
WHY?
I genuinely find no joy in working on the game anymore. Unfortunately it feels more like a chore to work on it, and it makes me sad to do so.
This decision took honestly a while to decide on because of how major of a change this is for not only my workflow but for the like 5 or 10 people who actually keep up with the game haha..
WHY DO YOU FEEL THIS WAY?
Here is the story of FUNKY FIGHT, and how I never wanted this to be my biggest project.
FUNKY FIGHT started as a game called "Zoom's Rampage", based on my friend and was strictly a game for my friend group. This was almost 3 years ago. I had never done any multiplayer before, so I used a template multiplayer FPS game and just kinda slapped stuff on. I didn't feel bad because it wasn't gonna be a big game anyways.
The game evolved, as projects do. And as interest in the game from my friends grew, I made more and more stuff for it, before it ultimately had a steam release. I then decided I would be serious about this, and changed the name to "FUNKY FIGHT".
If you can't tell, this is not how I wanted my game to be. I used a template, however because my friends got used to it, I kept it. And the game was already up on steam, so I decided that I would go into it. I quickly found that I was not at all ready for multiplayer. I had never had a steam release before, so I haven't even dabbled in the Steamworks API or anything related. It was definitely difficult to work with.
WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE STEAM PAGE?
Well, I decided around a month ago to start a project that maybe would motivate me to work on FUNKY FIGHT a little more. Well, I did get a shit ton of motivation; but not for FUNKY FIGHT. It made me realize that I am not losing love for game dev, I was losing love for FUNKY FIGHT.
I have decided I will repurpose this steam page to this new game, and I apologize deeply to anyone that has wishlisted it for FUNKY FIGHT. Truly, I am sorry. Even though not many people did, and even less even know the game was still in development, I am so sorry.
Thank you so much to everyone who supported FUNKY FIGHT, emailed me about the game or supporting the game to me, and everyone who wishlisted the game. You are all amazing people, and I love every single one of you for even looking at my game.
Thank you so much for an amazing journey. I have been passionate about game dev since the age of 5, when I was allowed to use a computer. Thank you all for making that possible and giving me a platform.
goodbye :(
