So much for constantly running this and filling it with silly stuff The motivation has NOT been there, and the "dev team" itself is uuhhhh- lets just say stuff is a bit messy rn But I'm trying, I really can't do much due to the lack of team communication, lack of motivation, and lack of supplies- BUT

I'm not giving up now, one way or another something will be made. Maybe voice acting in my current solo project, I might contact someone with coding/model experience, see if I can FINALLY make some animatronic models for another game I got planned, I have gained a few new members but contact with them is a little janky at the moment. With all that, plus school, and my not-so-stable household, its a bit of a struggle, so just wish me luck!!

Fun Fact of the Day!! #2

Todaaayyyyys fun fact is for... Brain Spatters! Fun Fact: There are more fire sprinklers in the school than there is in any other normal building. This is because when the math teacher, Mr. Razbein, gets too mad, his hair catches fire! The students like to purposely upset him because they think its cool that he can do that. Unfortunately- ITS ALSO LEAD TO THE SCHOOL ALMOST BURNING DOWN SEVERAL TIMES. btw mmmmmmmmmmmight start making simple little doodles to accompany my fun facts until some actual posts start showing up here

Fun Fact of the day!!

[Ima try and make this a running thing for this blog] Todays fact is for.... Figure Of Ashes! Fun Fact: Taking Whats Not Yours is not exactly "fitting" for this considering majority of the lyrics- but it can still apply GREATLY to the characters. There's a lot of "taking" that will happen in the game after all. But I find it fitting for ALL the characters, especially with what goes down between two very specific characters- You may assume I'm talking about Parsival and Vesra- you mmmmmmmmight be correct. But keep this in mind! Not all information is for mortal mind. Everyone has a story, even if it seems they don't. I must ask- who do you think might be taking from everyone? [btw, this is targeted towards you, @a-simple-traveler-anon, I like hearing you brew up ideas for what might go down in this game]

A thing about my sillies. You get no context.

A spotify playlist?? For a game that doesn't exist yet!?!?!

So uh- I'll make some cover art for the playlist later. I was planning out my cool game idea and got a little silly so I made this

[thesilliestdevteam]

Hii! so I created some things- I strive to be a game developer in the future, so at the current moment I just write all my ideas down or make characters in gacha!! In which is why I have these- I'm very specifically am posting this for opinions on the idea!! This does not mean it'll be in the works at all any time soon!!!

Figure of Ashes is the title I have [for now at least]. You play as Vesra. Recently your brother, Parsival, has gone missing, and the church you both ran together had burned down soon after. You fear his faith has faltered. You have to return to the ruins of the church in search of anything that might point to where your brother is. Once you enter the ruins, it morphs into a twisted maze you must make your way through. An 'angel', Zaeraphael, helps guide you. You have to find your brother, and fight off the demon that's with him. I want it to be a mix of smth like COTL and DDLC, a mostly 2D game with some parts being in the style of a visual novel game. The crucifix doubles as a dagger and will be your main weapon. This is until I put other forms of combat in. 'Prayer' is a power in here, either giving the player a halo to light up dark areas, or [in combat] serving as a shield against attacks. There will be multiple endings. [including a few short joke ones] This is a comedic horror game. I wanted to do something silly, but then realized the word document of game ideas I have has a running theme of horror soooo- uh- yeah. I'll probably make more stuff of them in gacha later.

probably.

Hey hey, Fox here. h e l p :)

So uhhhh I have a lot of silly games with silly characters, and there is one very specific character I wanna draw. I have a character named Liz, she's a student character who runs the art club and likes speeding down the hallways because she got wheels and she's gonna use that to her advantage. The thing is- her wheels, are the wheels of a wheelchair, uh- I'm already pretty sucky at art, but I have no clue how to draw a wheelchair. I've heard of plenty of different tutorials on how to draw a wheelchair but I don't exactly know which ones are accurate or not. Mind helping me out with this?

What and WHO the shit is Play-A-Thing Productions?

Hi hi hi, guys, gals, ghouls, and everyone else beyond and in between!! This is a more in-depth rant on why this little blog exists! I'm Fox [he/him]!! A very tired lad who has a dream aaaaand like- three more years of high school. For a while, I've wanted to do something that revolved around video games. I love all kinds of games, the characters, world building, secrets, the whole package. I'd love drawing fanart and watching random internet people hack into games to see what's hidden around. And recently I thought "Its really cool to see all the work and effort put into these games- I wonder if I can do that" So that somehow magically lead to a shit ton of different game titles written in a word document and I only remember about 3 of the ideas for them. I want to take coding and animation classes eventually once I at the very least get a decent functioning laptop and art skills that don't look like a 6 year old was the one drawing. Until then, all the work, characters, ideas, and concepts will kinda just get thrown here! Plus, if artists, game devs, and even just normal folk like you guys see this, I am always glad to see comments, tips, and whatever else! Now as for the team, cause I said 'there ain't no way in actual hell I'm working on this alone': There are two other people on the team at the current moment! My darling and lovely reason-I-won't-die-alone, @a-simple-traveler-anon

and a really cool friend who I dragged along because I wanted them to suffer with me, @crispywaffles2 I'll let them do their own silly little introductions whenever they can :) Soooo what do we have so far?? The ones with the most work put in is A Spark of Something Sweet [basic animatronic mascot game], Figure of Ashes [a 2D COTL style and visual novel horror comedy game, which Im working on solo], and Brain Splatters! [an edutainment horror game that I plan on dragging my fellow critters in on]. The other ideas we have uhm... haven't even been touched yet really- so I probably won't be making any new game concepts until all the ideas get their own pages in my silly word document. Nothing will actually be worked on any time soon, but I'm trying my best, and I'm glad to have two of the worlds swaggiest critters behind me while I do this!! Thank you two, you two can always get the gears turning with creativity!! And thank YOU, the creature reading this right now!! The whole purpose for a game developer is to express themselves and entertain those around them!! So I really hope you like everything thats to come!!
