It's Itch.io Creator Day, which means you can have two, yes, two- wait, wrong promotion.

It means anything you spend on Itch.io does not take out platform fees! I raised the Itch cut of fees on Just a Bite back when there was a rumor projects set to the minimum were getting shut down (turned out to be not exactly true, but still left it just in case), so today is a terrific day to support your local Kobolds! It's Pay What You Want for a playful little micro game, first running away from a size-thieving Kobold with the munchies, and then chilling out in a prototype of the future Kobold Home, a taster for the future! There's even a few obscure easter eggs to sniff out!

The last update is coming in days, with the Android/Meta Quest release ready to rock (and up on App Lab!), the PC version just needs a few more days of focus. After this, I'll be changing gears to work on the proper full game's early structure, as well as a saucy side project which I'll detail more on my Patreon!

Get Cuddle Kobold: Just a Bite here!

It's no April Fools joke, Cuddle Kobold: Just a Bite has been ported to Quest 2 Standalone! Enjoy all the Glowie Collecting, Bean Microwaving, Kobold Hugging action! Now with Bonus Donuts!

It'll be out publicly very soon for free, keep an eye on http://setsune.itch.io/koboldjab for the PWYW release, but if you can't wait and want to scamper from a size-stealing scalie on your Meta Quest 2 (or Pro, maybe 1?), Patrons can play it right now at https://www.patreon.com/posts/80856792

This was a surprising amount of work! I'm happy the result is as good as it is, and I'm ready to start working on something else.

Would you like a midnight mini-game involving a hungry size-stealing Kobold? How about a tiny taste of life in a Game Boy? What about a text tutorial for GB Studio that's kind of outdated? Well, today is a great day to fill those specific needs!

Today is Itch.io Creator Day, which is like Bandcamp Fridays, meaning the storefront doesn't take their cut of the sales, even with their already generous rates. So creators get even more from your dollar, as opposed to losing 30% right off the bat on Steam and other major platforms.

Here's links to my three purchaseable projects, all are Pay What You Want (name your own price):

Cuddle Kobold! Just a Bite (SFW) https://setsune.itch.io/koboldjab What started as a late Halloween gag ended up expanding. The Kobold from "Cuddle Kobold!" has the midnight munchies, and every time they nibble at you, you shrink a bit. You dash around the apartment getting progressively smaller and smaller, looking for gems that'll substitute until the food delivery in the morning. Win, and you can fool around in the Daytime apartment, an early testbed for ideas going into the full game! And feed the Kobold cookies.

This is a short experience, but I've been making it better with 3 difficulty modes, added easter eggs and interactables during Daytime, and of course hats! It's already out for PC VR, and I'm just finishing up the Meta Quest 2 native port within the next few days.
