vaporwario (depression edition)

It’s time for another vaporwario newsletter from your dear pal vaporwario! And yes I have released a new game, that’s the vaporwario newletter guarantee ™️!

Two for the price of one in fact. Well not really cause I released the other one months ago, but I didn’t announce it here. Whatever whatever… when you make a newsletter you can make the rules ok? (and forward it to me i will subscribe.)

Luigi Wants To Golf

screenshot. at the top it says "what do you do this morning?". on the side it has "energy", "stress", and "food" bars and underneath that it says "clothes 0/1" and "savings: $2200". There's buttons that say "TOO STRESSED", "DO LAUNDRY", "BUY NEW CLOTHES", "WATCH YOUTUBE", "LOOK FOR HOUSING". The whole game has a weird blur effect on it.
luigi just wants to golf :<

Ok let’s see what we have here. Nintendo characters? In new contexts?? Yup that’s a vaporwario game. Oh wait I’m getting something else… Huh it’s depressing and based on personal experiences!?!?! Woah I can’t wait to play a depressing game! How about you??

jk jk I am not a investigator of my own games. This was another “potluck” gamejam game. The theme was fake golf. Although in this the game the golf is all too real muahahahaha. Play it! I think I made something interesting… it’s kind of a new realm for me. Usually I don’t make depressing games unless it’s a little poem. To be honest I kind have mixed feelings about it because it’s a little too close to home.

Anyhow let me know if it speaks to you.

nothing is forever

dithered pink picture of a skinny pole in the sky with a tree in the background. there's a button in the middle that says "nothing is forever".

Speaking of depressing little poems! Here’s one! This one is short and sweet and melancholy. It takes like a minute, (AND TASTES LIKE A MINUTE YUM) give it a try! It’s made in decker with real photos (dont dox me). Everyone should make a little decker poem it’s great. I was inspired by these two games by Air Gong that you should also play: She said “You do plenty by experiencing trans joy” and The Ocean View from the Keiyo Line.

To be honest I made this one partially because I wanted to write another newsletter about bad games but I needed a game to release. And then I had a couple long discussions about bad games, buddhism, and self-loathing and realized my manifesto is missing several chapters and needs to wait. So that’s why I snuck this out, because it had to go and the newsletter it was made for could not.

Fun links in case you hate gams

this sweater guy’s approach to making small games

I watched this. I like the ideas in it. It reminded me that I really need to just follow my own damn advice and make games for fun instead of whatever the hell I’m doing.

gametank gametank gametank

this videos hella funny. also the gametank is cool. I also have an unfinished terrible game for it.

(oops shit these videos are both about gams)

thoughts?

Y’know how I said my health is bad last time? Welp shit is still fucked up, just different. They say “nothing is forever” and sometimes it means that your nightmare just changes form a bit into a different nightmare.

Anyhow I’m making an mmo called girlmmo. and it’s really cool. well I was making it. you gotta send me some motivational hate mail and then i’ll keep making it again. no threats ok? ;)

Until next game space cowboy.
