WE WANT TO KNOW! ( Patreon Rewards Expansion )

Some may remember our prior attempts to utilize physical reward goods in Patreon's auto-shipment system in a bid to find ways to satisfy Patreon patrons while they wait for the content we're creating for them! 

...This didn't really work out though, since Patreon required 2-3 months of patronage to receive ONE item. Safe to say, we've since ruled out physical goods, since the cost of production and shipment would likely heavily reduce the budget to go to the development team member...

Patreon is Broken Again

Patreon is broken.

Since the new update to the site's organization and layout, we've begun to have issues with Phantom Blocks ( users being registered as blocked, but not appearing in the blocked list to UNBLOCK ), emails and usernames not appearing when searched in both direct messages and the audience tab, declined cards en masse, and overall difficulties navigating/finding info.

We sincerely apologize if you or any other Patreon patron has experienced this. It was neither our d...

Sunny Day Re-Direction - Making Sunny Day Jack Efficient and Fun

One of the biggest criticisms Sunny Day Jack's newest sprites have garnered was that they felt flat, lifeless, and lacked the cartoon-y spark that so many fans of the previous demos enjoyed.

Part of preparing Sunny Day Jack under a new management team is examining what about production works and what doesn't. For us-- that starts with the art.

While the SnaccPop team settles, implements more deadlines, and adjusts to more balanced workloads we've gone back to basics to find a styl...

Official Departure from Project Enso: A statement.

Greetings from Project Ensō, and farewell for the final time.

It has been a little more than a year since the Kickstarter campaign for Something's Wrong With Sunny Day Jack, where I (BáiYù) became acquainted with you all. It is simply a fact of the matter that visual novels are a niche medium: even as a seasoned veteran of visual novel development with over a decade's worth of experience assisting various teams in shipping their indie titles, I was amazed to see the passion ...

Q&A: Project Enso departure, AphroDesia, Deadlines and more.

Why is SnaccPop parting ways with Project Enso?

As of now, Project Enso is preparing its statement on the situation. We will also be posting one when the time is adequate, but for now we can say that we have our three-man-lead with people experienced in their areas and in VN production!

We also want to say thank you to Project Enso for all the great work they did for us, however, we believe this decision is the best next step forward to make Sunny Day Jack as bes...

Feat. Maus, the voice of Sunny Day Jack --

Enjoy the first bit of raw audio, from the latest cut of the game's new demo!

We're proud to share the first of many new, expanded scenes that will finally begin to tie the demo into the new game. And though we are aware that by introducing crucial story elements into the demo, it will cease to feel like a self-contained one-shot, we're excited to give players a taste of the story to be told in the final game and leave them all feeling up...

Status Update: New leadership, steps moving forward, future of SnaccPop.

Hello there everyone! We are here to give a very deserved update that, admittedly, came later than it should have. We are extremely sorry about the delay, but now that the dust has settled on some of the rougher details and our path moving forward has become clearer we want to drop some much-needed information on our decisions.

First of all, this is NOT Sauce typing this announcement, it's Bi...

+Q/A - Yandere is Here To Stay: Debunking Confusion

In a recent post, we shared some screenshots from our most recent re-writes of SDJ.

However, it seems that there’s been a small bit of miscommunication!

A few SDJ fans have mentioned that they fear the game is being toned down from its original concept. While our re-writes do actively remove dialogue that unintentionally may be perceived as / dubious consent / or  / pressuring the player into sexual/romantic choices /, there are no intentions to remove yandere/ho...

Sunny Day Jack - Upcoming Demo Revisions

Hello everyone! It's Sauce again! Today, I'd like to maybe take a moment with you all to discuss part of the ongoing SDJ creative process, specifically relating to one of our more talked-about criticisms for the original demo.

( For that reason, I'm actually going to make this PUBLIC. Because we're getting deep, and things like this aren't really paywall material. )
