SHOWMAN'S: The Awakening release was ahead of schedule

One of the best Five Nights at Freddy's fangames, especially in term of scariness, this is one of my top 3 of all time! SHOWMAN'S: The Awakening is developed by Iz with Blender, a remastered version of Phobia: The Awakening (2021), originally expected to be released in June 2025 , it ended up launching at the end of May. The version features overhauled models and introduces new characters to replace those originally based on The Wiggles . This not only gave the developer more creative freedom but also helped avoid potential legal issues tied to using copyrighted characters. While the original Phobia version is still available, but you never know how long that might last… The gameplay follows a little bit of FNAF 2 style and FNAF 6 (salvage minigame), five nights + one boss fight on Night 6, just like the Phobia version. However, this time Night 6 introduces a new mechanic, instead of the mask, you use a flashlight to defend yourself and to look around in a dark room. You can al...

Gamejolt - An awesome platform for Gaming Content Creator!

Gamejolt, originally started as a platform focused on indie game developers, offering them a place to showcase and share their creations. Now it has expanded into a creative social media network, letting creators share and monetize their stuffs! Btw, if you're a game developer, this is always a good option to sell your games or game assets, but today we are looking into their Creator Program. The Requirements: Game Jolt users with 1,000 or more followers or users on platforms like YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, Twitch and Patreon that have 3,000 or more followers will be considered. Recommended Contents (from my observation): Gaming related stuffs + originality, like if you are a game developer, and you're posting teaser, screenshot, or artwork from your own game, that will have a high chance to be accepted. Creating video clips, fanart, photo, cosplay are welcomed too. And the lower chance contents are like copy and paste from other place, sharing links to other site, e...

FNAF Secret of the Mimic new teaser and Release Date on June 13, 2025

Steel Wool Studio reveals a new teaser for the upcoming Five Nights at Freddy's: Secret of the Mimic, with the caption 75 Days until secrets are unleashed, that means the release date will be Jun 13, 2025! And it's for Steam, PS5, and Epic Games. Original Source Personal opinions, I hope it's not going to be another common mascot horror games. I still enjoy the classic FNAF horror style and more tactical approach to beating the game, like strategy and decision making are less important in the newer FNAF titles, except the Burntrap Boss Fight in Security Breach, but it's just a small part of the game. The Joy of Creation 2024  (currently in demo version) did a great job to maintain the FNAF-like horror elements while evolving with modern look and updated mechanics. For me, it's a very successful product that modernizes the FNAF titles, while Steel Wool Studio is bringing FNAF into the path of commercialization, matching the market acceptance to reach more audiences, ...

How many views on YouTube Shorts to qualify for the fund?

As mentioned in the  latest update  (April 2022),  "There’s no specific performance threshold to qualify for a bonus" . I'm trying to share my little information of my recent performance that got me the YouTube Shorts Fund, hopefully it gets us a little clue of the minimum requirements. I got my YouTube Shorts fund for the first time in July 2022 with the $100 bonus (for the performance in June 2022), and then didn't quality in August 2022. Below is my view count of Shorts video in June and July. In June I got 2.6 mil which got me thr $100 Shorts Fund bonus and July I got 1.4 mil views which got me nothing. So as result, I guess probably we need at least 2 mil shorts views in order to compete for the YouTube Shorts Fund. Or it could be depending on the overall shorts performance in the entire platform? For example, your shorts video perform better than certain percentage of other creators will be qualified, if other creators' Sh...

The instability of Facebook for Video Creator 2022

I just want to share my experience on Facebook (Meta) for creator, specificly on video content creator and the in-stream ads . There are multiple monetization tools for the creators on Facebook such as paid event, brand deals, and the one took the longest time to unlock is in-stream ads , you get revenue from the midroll or ads below your video just like YouTube. My Facebook Page  has unlocked the in-stream ads feature after 5 years of uploading contents, and got my revenue paid for few months after that. But then something happened when I move to other country for 2 months. My in-stream ads featured got revoked with the reason "ineligible country". What I guess was because of the country I stayed in that moment was Mongolia, which is not in their eligible country and I did login from Mongolia, so maybe they detected my location was an ineligible country for in-stream ads, so they disable this feature on my page. Why I say "guess" is because there is no official sta...

FNAF Security Breach is 'TOO BIG' for Steel Wool Studios

Screen of Shattered Roxy stuck in the wall Steel Wool Studios takes the series in an all-new direction, unlike any previous Five Nights at Freddy's games, this is a free roaming first-person AAA type of production. However, they might not ready for such a major project yet. The game not only delayed multiple times, but obviously lot of bugs too. I mean, you don't have to make this game become so big, too big until your team couldn't handle it on time, some locations with many details, unique characters (I don't want to spoil it) but only have little appearances in the game, kinda waste of time to make those stuffs. There's nothing wrong to do make those impressive stuffs, however they should have been planned probably. I don't know, perhaps push those less appearances elements to the future DLC, or just remove them, and spend more time into the first release. As of now, 2 months after the game has been released, we are still waiting the patch as they announced w...
