You know how in fanart people draw Tisha with a litte bang covering one eye? I wonder if the TOTW skin will be similar lol.

Imagine getting hit twice by squiddle in the same spot </3 Diabolical

putting a flashlight on the infecteds when its a blackout is actually so scary T_T

These aren't real posters around the map, I just made some for fun ^^

Between Nimbus and Selena, I play as Koi the most!

The goalposts always seem to shift when it comes to the various demands from people in this subreddit. At first it was "Qwel doesn't communicate enough" and she began to make devlog videos every month, then it became "She doesn't tell us enough about what is coming in each update" and now we literally have Veemail patchnotes in game telling us every single thing changed in the updates (which includes Bug fixes which was something I saw lots of people wanting).

If you are still under the incorrect assumption that there's been 0 communication, you are just plugging your ears at this point. What else would people want communicated? You have the patchnotes telling you now what bugs were fixed in depth, there's monthly Dev logs detailing everything happening for THAT month and maybe even the next month. We are getting Toon reworks, they are literally changing and adding new machine types to fix the "boring gameloop" or whatever.

It just seems like people who complain the loudest in this subreddit do not actually pay attention to the things in game, and when you point out how all their prayers have been answered literally a month ago, the goal moves. It becomes less about wanting more information and more complaints about how the updates didn't happen when THEY thought it would happen, or how the updates were lame to begin with because it didn't add something THEY wanted added. I've seen people complain that the new swimmy barnaby machine is actually bad because while it is variety for the machines Qwel should've done something different anyway. They couldn't elaborate on what they meant by "something else".

And it's just exhausting because it isn't even really just this subreddit, the entire fanbase's communities are like this. On tiktok it is just an endless onslaught of people giving backhanded compliments like "Wow FINALLY Qwel managed to STOP BEING LAZY and make a GOOD update for once", on Youtube there's video essay after video essay about how the game is still bad and boring, and this Subreddit only ever upvotes the most negative posts.

Everything the community asked for is literally happening, but there is still this swathe of negativity that people keep encouraging for some reason. And honestly, if I were Qwel and I couldn't even go into the subreddit for the game *I* made without seeing lame post after post about how terrible of a dev I was, I'd just cancel this whole game ages ago ong.

TL;DR the community already got everything they literally begged for, but everyone ignores the effort and just likes to encourage negativity and bullying for the sake of it. Adding a roadmap would not stop complaints bc the goalpost always moves.

its not easter anymore but I'm still a big Bassie fan!

I was commissioned to draw Startime Sprout by someone and they gave me a gamepass as compensation! This was really fun, and I now have the Showtime pass lol.

On another note, I just wanted to say this is literally me using the Veemail system in a way a lot of communities who play other Roblox games use their mail and gift system. I wouldn't be able to do this so easily without Veemail, and the Veemail system made the entire process super easy for both me and the person who got the art. Other people can now do the same, and I saw plenty of artists in the BlushCrunch server advertising their art in exchange for Ichor or a gamepass.

And people are always hounding on Qwel for "not being informative enough" but this is really good update because it comes with patchnotes about what was fixed and it goes into DETAIL which I really like. I didn't know they'd rework the skins for Flutter and Scraps but the skins look really good now.

Hopefully people will check veemail if they want to know things about what changed lol. I know its not a huge update, so I expect a lot of people to say it was a "nothingburger update" but still. It is a step in a good direction.

(note: I am not saying every single person who dislikes the update is like this btw this is just something I have noticed I am not talking about EVERYONE who has SOME grievances...)

It's that a lot of yall...are way too selfish, and you don't like being *selfless*. And really, I think that's just why this update seems to ruffle some folks feathers lol (besides the people who just really wanted a bigger update I think their complaints are valid it's fine to expect more from your favorite game.)

It's a heavy Teamwork based update where you must work alongside not just one but multiple people, and potentially your whole lobby and some of yall are just terrible at working alongside other people (or you are just flat out MEAN to others lol)

Like, the whole update focuses heavily on helping someone else out without really expecting to get something in return, or letting another person who is slower than you onto a machine so you can advance faster through the floor. Some of yall won't even let Boxtens onto machines because you think they will just fail instantly and instead of being welcoming to someone who is new and doesn't know a lot, you bully and push them out.

Now this isn't pointed at everyone who dislikes this update, but I have definitely noticed this pattern of people complaining about the Duo machine update because it requires you to help another person out, or because working alongside 7 other people is just "too difficult". Communication and being NICE is how you can get all these new achievements. I got almost all of them (aside from character specific ones like Goobs or Astro's bc i don't own them yet) on day 1.

The harsh truth is that this teamwork and letting other people extract and using your characters skill to help them on THEIR machine even when it doesn't directly benefit you outside of moving to the next floor quicker was how the game was always meant to be played, and we shouldn't have actually needed Duo machines for slower extraction toons or just slow movement toons to have a shot to extract before floor 10. But this community is filled with so many rude and entitled people that will indeed "hog" machines all the time without thinking about other people in the run.

Especially since this community is already stingy with Machines, having to convince 7 others to let you touch one at least once seems like quite the task T_T
