YAY my first canceled game!
Just wanna say THANK YOU for playing EXCUSE ME SIR and showing interest in this collab. Out of all the games I've released on Itch (including FAITH and FAITH Chapter II) this was the one that generated the most buzz and engagement. We got some great feedback from players and were really excited about crafting the full game into a surreal horror experience that y'all would love.
In about two months EXCUSE ME SIR got over 325 thousand page views and nearly 68 thousand downloads. For reference, FAITH Chapter I got 487 thousand page views and 102 thousand downloads over a period of five years.
Unfortunately Molly decided to drop out of working on the project, and without her we don't really have a game anymore. So it looks like the game is canceled.
I'm sorry y'all! I was confident this could have been a successful project and I really wanted to incorporate all the feedback we got to make an awesome full game. I'm in contact with another content creator who does surreal and slightly creepy videos and I've wanted to do a game with them for a while, so hopefully we'll have a new project to announce soon!
Again thank you all for your support!

hmm maybe you can model a scary monster that looks like molly and go on from there.
ngl, beanrooms better
Could the alternative content creator maybe be chloe.longname? 👀
"For real? Wow, Turns out she isn`t always winning"
- THAT guy who was mad he couldn`t fight back in this game
There needs to be able to play the demo online, I have a chromebook.
Well someone will take the concept and turn it into a game. Not a complete loss
Hope whatever comes next is as much of a joy to play as all the rest :)

Why did molly leave ?
No reason given for a crucial team member leaving
She gave her reasons privately so I'm leaving it to her if she wants to publicly give her reasons or not.
Dang, that sucks to hear. Absolutely adored this game and your work as a whole. I'm looking forward to what you decide to do next!
bummer, but at least it wasnt years gone to waste
Thats a shame, hopefully the current game can be remade into something else tho! From what i saw it looked really cool :) Looking forward to any other projects ya make!
My condolences, and I am hugely disappointed in this unprofessional behavior from the collaborator. I'm glad you're keeping your spirits up in the face of it and I hope this new project goes far more smoothly.
What a bummer! I really enjoyed this demo. But thank you for releasing it, and I'm excited for any potential future horror point and click weirdness!
Sorry to hear that Excuse Me Sir won't go beyond a demo! I really enjoyed it (and I liked watching others play it, too). Thanks for it, and I'm looking forward to your next collab!
That really sucks (especially considering she had the easiest job but I guess I don't know her situation so I can't blame her.)
you're obnoxious
Cool, so you agree that Molly is obnoxious.
so you agree that you are obnoxious
Nice try, but I didn't use the word "too". You know, the word that you edited out of your previous reply. Very smooth.
i was just going to keep fucking with you, but here i'll dumb it down for you. i was speaking in reference from Your views, You think she is obnoxious you should also know You are as well, hence the word too, which i edited out so there were less words for you to read and try to understand the meanings of. youre obnoxious, im obnoxious, everyone is obnoxious, youre obnoxious and rude for commenting directly on airdorf's dev update that you personally don't like who he was working with just bc you think she is obnoxious. it isn't your game, and it was not being made for you specifically. airdorf is an indie dev that was doing this out of pure passion, not a triple a studio, and you decided to be disrespectful about him having to cancel a game he was excited about because you personally dont care for molly moon. you need to respect indie devs more, and other people in general. understand better yet? hope you feel better soon
Whisper:
Hmmm I wonder who is messing with whom in this situation...
Well, if "everyone is obnoxious", then you do agree that Molly is obnoxious. It also means that you think Airdorf is obnoxious. I must say, you commenting Airdorf's dev update that you personally don't like him just because you think he is obnoxious is pretty rude. It isn't your game, but you decided to be disrespectful. Very sad.
Do you realize that your "everyone is obnoxious" statement and your "you need to respect indie devs more, and other people in general" statement are in direct conflict with one another? Calling everyone obnoxious isn't very respectful.
I'm just some random person on the internet, but "everyone is obnoxious" includes all your friends and family so it's pretty sad if you really think that they're obnoxious. Maybe, if you stop being so disrespectful to people, they will be less obnoxious towards you. Anyway, best of luck to you! I hope you keep working on your mental health! Tomorrow is a new day! I know you can do it!
this feels like a fight between two children that keep inventing loopholes to everything
So sad to hear a full game won't be made, but the demo WAS really fun, at least! I look forward to seeing what you do next
That’s really sad but I hope your new partnership works out, the concept is really interesting.
Sorry to hear this, was looking forward to it! Plus side, you've got the code and experience to do something similar, and lots more people waiting to see what you're doing next :)
I hope there's a part for Truffles...
