A Halloween-themed collaboration between @maplesweater, @noizy-bunny and I - we hope you all enjoy our mini Hetalia MEP! Credits and timestamps will be in the description of the Youtube video! Extra special thanks to Maple for organising the project <3

The song is Will Stetson's cover of KING.

Realized I should probably make a standalone post for this and not just update my masterlist because most people will not see that soooooooooo Four months ago my friend and I made a hetagame and I forgot to post about it until now!!! It's called Apple Butter and it's a small little Ukraine-centric game where you work on an apple orchard and you also make apple treats like pies and parfaits and stuff and sell them! And then you go and talk to the fellow townsfolk and also your fellow orchard workers (who happen to be ghosts!)

It's not long and it's just a small cute lil game that the two of us made in 14 days and we'd both be really happy if you checked it out!

[maplesweater]

Finally updated this last after Apple Butter has been out for like four months haha whoopsies

It's not long! And it's cute! And we made it in two weeks! And you might like it idk! I'm proud of what we did in two weeks anyway.

My Published Hetagame Masterlist

I decided this should probably be my first hetagame-related post that I make right now since I know I have an (outdated) page full of information and links to my games BUT you can't find that on mobile and I'm too lazy to edit that right now SO I'll do my best to keep this list up to date This list is gonna contain both my solo projects and group projects I worked on.

#1 is Child's Garden This was a group project between myself, @unlimited-trash-spill @sanctuaryofstars and @noizy-bunny Game page description: Go on a little misadventure with a group of kids trying to save their beloved kindergarten from closing for good! Hijinks include launching traitors off into the sky, stealing a random bike to avoid responsibility, getting your parents arrested and more all the while trying to raise funds! Do you think you have what it takes to jump on this crazy bandwagon in hopes of making enough money to save the kindergarten? And their pudding! Never forget the pudding. The game has a warning for serious topics taken lightly, since all of the main characters are children, after all. There's also two mentioned ships which consist of two of the pairs of parents in the game, FrUK and AusHun.

#2 is Guidebooks (See the game page description for the full name I'm not typing all that lmao) This was another group project between the same people as above. Game page description: 17-year old Ludwig Beilschmidt has been invited on a camping trip by his friends Matthew, Ivan, and Kyle! He agrees, and soon enough finds himself at the campsite where the four boys intend to spend a week getting closer to nature and just having fun! The only problem is, this is Ludwig's first time in the woods. Ever. He's always been more the sort to stay home and review flash cards, rather than go outside and explore. On top of that, it turns out that Matthew isn't that great at keeping Ivan and Kyle in line. That sort of thing was usually his brother Alfred's job, who's been banned from coming with them due to Alfred-brand shenanigans. So it seems that this trip has already started out badly. Can they pull it together and end up having a fun time? Or will this camping trip end up going south? Find out in "My Friends Invited Me to go Camping, but My Only Experience Is Reading Guidebooks!" The only thing worthy of a "content warning" is that there's swearing so if you don't like that be aware ig The game contains no ships, but speaking of the game I made a dumb stupid trailer for it that's linked on the game page and I'd be very happy if you guys checked that out I worked really hard on it at the time.

#3 is Apple Butter This group project was only between myself and @unlimited-trash-spill. Game Page Description: A short and relaxing Ukraine-centric game made within 14 days by Maple and Cune. Grow apples on your farm and pick them! Cook some delicious food!  Go shopping for more ingredients! Feed your ghost friends (at the graveyard)! Chat with your neighbors and coworkers! Help preparing for the town festival!

The only thing really worthy of a 'content warning' is one of the ghosts gives brief description of the situations leading to his death at one point, that involves fire. He doesn't go into detail, but it's there nonetheless. This game also has no ships in it.

Now we're getting to my solo games So technically speaking I have two currently published games but one of them is old and bad and I'm currently working on a reboot so please ignore that one thank you.

#4 is Freedom This one was a solo project that I decided to see if I could make in six days. And I did. So that's a thing. Game page description: Alfred is standing in a dark room. How did he get there? There's no way of telling. Where is he? There's no way of knowing. How long does he have to escape? Ten minutes. And it's your job to get him out.As far as warnings go, this game was made for halloween, so there's what you'd expect from a halloween game, mostly blood and cursing. Uhhhh yeahhhh that's it

This page will be expanded as I/we eventually put out more games.

Character selection screen for a hetagame I started working on last summer.

Hello, I know Guidebooks came out like a really long time ago but I just wanted to say that it was really fun to experience it. I especially like the main cast you decided to go with since it mixes up things a bit. Also rip Ludwig I wouldn’t be surprised if started to grey by 20 because of Ivan’s and Kyle’s shenanigans.

Hey! Sorry this took so long for me to get to, I meant to answer it when I got it like...... over a half a month ago...... instead of now

BUT anyway thank you so much, genuinely!

It's so nice to hear that you enjoyed the game, I'm sure the others will share the sentiment when I say that it really means a lot to us to get messages like this, especially for a jam game that honestly we weren't originally gonna put that much effort into, and then it turned into this whole thing where we made all sorts of things we had never intended to even consider, annnd then it accidentally became a high-maintinence project ewe;

Also yes poor Luddie he's gonna go home and take a 12 hour nap and wake up with grey hair and lower back pain lol Kyle and Ivan are very difficult to handle

Also also don't worry about the game being comparatively old, it's fine! Always good to get feedback, after all! (Annnd it doesn't even feel like we made it that long ago, time just sorta blends together sometimes lol)

Gamedev progress update from Cune and I! A text box mockup and a map WIP :D

So I feel like it should go without saying but just in case, the mockup is intentionally shitty and no we did not keep a random ass sand square we just thought it was funny.

[maplesweater]

ASDFWGDFGJA NO @bluelobstersdev DON'T BE SORRY THAT'S GREAT

I don’t really feel like opening any of my projects and going looking for a good screenshot to take right now sooooo here’s an extremely rough diagram of a spaceship layout for a sci-fi game @unlimited-trash-spill and I are working on on and off the ship isn’t gonna look exactly like this (or probably even that close tbh, for example realistically the bridge wouldn’t actually connect to the boarding hall directly but I made it with a program with grid-based limitations so that’s as close as I could put it without messing the rest of the diagram up) this is mostly just to give us an idea of what rooms we want near each other and what rooms we need :p

Hmmmmm what if I were to start posting hetagame progress in here again like I did once 800 years ago

Haha just kidding.....

.....unless...?

👀

[maplesweater]

Facesets for kinda secret hetagame project with @flirty-trash-spill? Woah! :3

[maplesweater]

Reblog this if your sanity is being assaulted by an obnoxiously large video ad for an Amazon Prime Video series called ‘The Boys’

[maplesweater]

It's reinforce Nidhogg hours y'all the difference is literally 78 points, which is like nothing, especially considering how many people are on Team Flynn.

(No hate against kimi btw but fufjhfhfj)

This comp theme is just "Hot Take: what's the worst hair in the game in your opinion?"

[maplesweater]

Oh my god I saw this ad at like 3AM a few weeks ago and I thought I imagined it because I couldn't find anything about it anywhere

this ad though
