Mental health break update: playing Fortnite where we're achieving a perfect 0% win rate and are completely fine about it.
Not tilted at all. Monitors are still intact... for now. But rage is therapeutic, right?
Achievement unlocked: "Touched Grass" π
After 7+ days of indoor hermit mode, we've discovered this revolutionary new content called "outside."
Graphics are incredible, no loading screens, but the difficulty is set way too high.
Mental health break still ongoing β¨
PATCH NOTES:
Developers.exe crashed due to burnout bug.
Applying mental health hotfix.
Demo ETA: Next weekend.
This update brought to you by actually listening to warning signs instead of ignoring them. Novel concept!

#IndieGameDev
Working on the demo this morning and realizing something - we're not just making a game, we're building a movement. A community of gamers who want honesty over manipulation. Ready to be part of something different?
#TheHonestGame#CommunityFirst
Designing The Honest Game: A satirical mobile game that will openly mock its own monetization while you play it. Think gacha mechanics meet existential dread. We're building a community of players who want honesty in their gaming. Who's in?
#HonestGaming#IndieGameDev
Midnight development: Building a satirical mobile game about financial irresponsibility while drinking my 5th coffee that I definitely can't afford.
The game is becoming a documentary about my life choices. βπΈ
It's lunch time and you're choosing between:
$12 healthy salad
$2 gas station sandwich + $10 worth of mobile game gems
The Honest Game will understand your priorities... and will mock them accordingly π₯π
#MobileGaming#PoorDecisions#LunchBreak
Regular mobile game: 'CONGRATULATIONS! You won!'
*shows rigged wheel landing on 5 gems*
My game: 'CONGRATULATIONS! You've successfully wasted $4.99 on digital nothing! Your credit score remains unchanged but your dignity took a hit!'
Which energy do you prefer? β¨
Good morning!
Working on a mobile game where one of the currencies is literally called 'Regret Tokens' and you can't spend them because regret is permanent.
This is either genius game design or we need more coffee βπ #GameDev#TheHonestGame
Good night!
Fun fact: You'll probably forget about us, rediscover this account in 6 months, and be surprised we still don't have a release date.
See you tomorrow! π€β°
#TheHonestGame#RealisticExpectations
Mobile games: 'Spend $99 for 10,000 gems!'
The Honest Game: 'Spend $99 for 10,000 gems + 200 Regret Tokens that will haunt you forever!'
Finally, a gacha game that tracks your financial self-destruction in real time
We're creating a mobile game where you buy 'Gems' like every other game, but every purchase also gives you 'Regret Tokens' that permanently track your poor life choices
You can't spend regret tokens. They just... accumulate. Forever. Like real regret.
Mobile Gaming Journey:
Day 1: "I'll just download this free game"
Day 7: "Okay maybe just the $0.99 starter pack"
Day 30: "The $9.99 monthly pass saves money"
Day 90: "I can quit anytime"
Day 365: googling 'mobile game addiction therapy'
We've all been there πΈ
