TIFU by releasing my Halloween game...after Halloween...

So this fuck up is currently ongoing, and might be saved by a miracle, but I doubt it.

I have been working my nards off on a fun cute little indie game called Consume Thy Flesh: The Pumpkin Smashing Sim.

You roll your gargantuan gourd over moonlit rooftops, and hurl yourself into a group of trick r treaters, exploding your candy filled insides for their consumption!

Sounds a little silly and morbid, right? It sounds like a fun little formula that could get some laughs and internet attention, right?

Well, I worked by myself diligently for weeks, over 8 hours a day to get this finished.

Hell yeah! Right?

Well, I put the game up on Itch.io a few days ago. That took all of 10 minutes.

However, the real goal was learning how to publish on Steam. The publishing process was way more involved than you'd think, but I got it figured out.

I'm smiling ear to ear, and extremely proud of what I had done...unit I get to the end of the process...

THE FUCK UP:

"GAMES CAN BE PUBLISHED 2 WEEKS AFTER APPROVAL"

Excuse me?

Wait, so I have to submit my game for approval, and then wait another 2 fucking weeks to let the game go live?

I seriously swear to God I searched Steam's publication process, and nothing I found stated the two week wait time haha. I really thought I had this planned out, and going smoothly...

Well,the good news is that the game was approved and the page is up.

The other slightly good news that may save my ass, is that I contacted Steam directly, and am now begging for a pre-Halloween release haha.

So yeah, I am really proud of all of the work I did, and everything I learned along the way, but I still totally fucked up.

Granted, if you are a game dev, or in the development scene, you know a lot of games are really unsuccessful. Some only get a few hundred downloads and nothing more, even with marketing and streamers promoting it.

I would have gladly accepted that, but I do know that releasing a holiday game on its intended holiday would help haha.

Here's to hoping the project and what I learned at least opens up some doors for me.

TL;DR: Worked my ass off on getting a Halloween holiday themed game published before Halloween. Steam requires a 2 week waiting period to go live, thus probably killing its potential.

Edit: Am I allowed to post links?

TIFU by walking into a glass door.

This just happened barely 30 minutes ago. Ended up with a nose bleed and some of the worst nose pain in my life. I can’t even wear glasses without the pressure hurting my nose. So, how did I make the same fuck up a bird would? I put on my sunglasses to leave an appointment and ended up walking nose first into a glass door. Shambling back in shock, I had no damn clue what I had just done. It shocked me so bad that I didn’t comprehend it until I felt liquid drip down my nose. I had turned into the world’s bloodiest leaking faucet. Someone witnessed this in their periphery and asked me if they needed to phone someone. In a panic I basically wailed for them not to, even though I would soon freak out and think I need an ambulance. Someone else came by and ended up giving me paper towels, which quickly looked like I had murdered a mouse with them. My nosebleed soon stopped but not before someone else checked on me. TLDR; fought a glass door and lost. I do not envy the janitorial staff. ...

TIFU by asking my boss why his cock got hard on my leg.

***not a fake post. I’m F 32, He was standing over one of my legs while I was sitting in front of him facing him (spinal adjustment) and he spread my knees with his leg, put his hand on my stomach and then there was a ton of sexual tension and I felt his cock grow into my leg and then start to fill with blood and then twitch on my leg. My boss has been leading me on for two years in subtle ways. Lots of waist pinching, close moments, and “were you good while I was away(s)?” Mostly breadcrumbing himself out to me while his wife (who I also work with) became increasingly hostile towards me. He is someone who has been a mentor to me for ten years. The two of them seem to be having marital problems on and off. The other month, while in close proximity, he started to get hard on my leg and moved when he noticed. A while later, I asked for an open conversation on the attraction between us and what to do about it. It has been distressing me and I had reached my limit. I figured since we’ve...

TIFU by going through my girlfriend’s old photos

My girlfriend and I have been together for 9 months or so and things have been up and down but I love her a lot and she loves me a lot. We’re both 20 and she’s had a lot more experience sexually than I have and this has always bothered me but besides that we have a pretty good relationship. We’ve talked about our pasts and she’s had some pretty bad experiences that caused her to kind of go off the rails up until we met. She’s all in on me and I’m all in on her and she’s expressed a lot of regret about her past choices and I’ve tried to be as understanding as possible but I’ve always had some insecurity regarding it. Well anyways last night I was on her laptop and saw her photos were linked to it and I stupidly clicked on it and started going through them. Don’t need anyone telling me that it was dumb and an invasion of privacy because I really realize that now and I will never be going through any of her stuff again. Anyways I ended up seeing a lot of shit. Clicked on a folder that...
