We have been preparing on carrying out an additional video for this devlog but we’re just as well busy/lazy to go via all that this month, so alternatively you have this dreary gif alternatively. We’ll attempt to get a video out for the subsequent devlog so you do not neglect what our attractive voices sound like.
Let’s see what we got up to not too long ago:
Day of the Devs once more
We have been invited to show off Ooblets at an additional good Day of the Devs, and we each went to San Francisco to show it off in particular person. It was good meeting a bunch of Ooblets fans and seeing folks playing our tiny demo.
Our composer Slime Girls did a reside set at the occasion that blew us away.
Merch update
A bunch of Rad Lads c/o Mike Lee
Because launching our tiny merch shop, a complete bunch of you have gotten Ooblets t-shirts, pins, stickers, and posters! We even saw a couple of folks wearing their Ooblets shirts to Day of the Devs (we have been wearing them as well!). We have a bunch of styles that we’re preparing on launching quite quickly, so verify back for new t-shirts and points!

Café interior
Exactly where do the residents of Badgetown go to unwind and ingest central-nervous-method-stimulants? Rohz’z Café, finest purveyors of beanjuice and spressy drinks.
Clothes shop interior
This interior has been kicking about for a even though but we’ve updated it to be a bit clearer about what’s for sale. There’s also a leading secret name picked out and it is my favourite shop name we’ve come up with so far. There’s even a logo… You will just have to wait and see.
Nullwhere
We’ve been fleshing out the Nullwhere area a lot mainly because we came up with a story and script for the complete point and it is fairly self-contained. The story essential a couple of new characters like Nullwhere Native Nurna right here:
And this terrifying visage of stomach-churning fright:
TERRIFYING!
Furnishings shop interior
This is the new furnishings shop that we’re almost certainly going to get in touch with Tysoot, which stands for “Things You Sit On and Other Things”. We ran a poll with a couple of names but we didn’t like the benefits so WE IGNORED THEM and went with our favourite.
This poll was non-binding
THE LAW
Officer Gloffum was a single of the very first characters we developed to block off a road in the demo, and regardless of there not seriously getting lots of disturbances requiring a peace officer in Oob, we’re maintaining him. He’s union following all. He’s got a tiny workplace in Town Hall that has a door-much less jail cell he sleeps in.
A lot more enjoyable stuff!
Possibly like three of you reading this will keep in mind our tiny prototype game we produced for Amnesia Fortnight 2017 named Glopters. In it, you had to race your glopters to be the very first to glarp the blibbers, which have been tiny cylindrical fellas floating about in bubbles. ANYWAY we place a blibber in Ooblets for some cause.
We also realized we had a desperate have to have for fanny packs in the game – but due to cultural sensitivities and our incessant have to have to come up with stupid names for every little thing in the game, we decided we’d get in touch with them frontypacks.
Till subsequent time!
We’re super tough at operate on every little thing and hoping to be systems-comparatively-total soonish. I’m hoping we’ll have a bit far more time and power left more than quickly to start off posting gifs and screenshots and updates and cat photos far more regularly.
We seriously appreciate all the assistance and friendship you have all shown us! Thanks!
