New story act and other news!

Star-ship bloopers: mercenaries Ep 4 Act 3 has been published in game and on FunkyPedia.

Also, You'll notice that although I make fewer posts, I make more posts that are not limited to patrons. The reasoning is that I think it's dreadful when I find a new creator and I try to get an idea of what he/she's is doing but I can't find a preview or anything. (Do people suck? Co...

News and updates!

Hi Everyone,

I'm sharing the new cut-scenes rendered since the last post and some dummy screen shots of the projected browser version of Funky-Spice. At this point only the Registration and log-in have database access. The CSS of the location page is working well enough (local environment only sorry) but that's all of it for now.

It is virtually impossible to perfectly support all display sizes and shapes but I'll try to cover the most important o...

funkypedia.com follow-up

Following up on last week's post. I have re-uploaded the website as a Blazor server app instead of a web-assembly.

It's a bit more expensive to operate but the device compatibility as far as I can attest is way better. On that front, since I do not own any Apple product, any of you with iPads, iPhones or computers using Safari care to have a look and tell me if the experience looks right?

What's up with FunkyPedia.com?

As previously stated, I'm no longer making the weekly posts unless I have something to share. 

So FunkyPedia is being rebuilt as a WebAssembly application. Right now it's not working too great but as a warm-up for building the Funky-Spice game's own WebApp, it's to be expected that it will go through some growing pains.

Right now, I have successfully tested it on the major desktop browsers (Chrome, Firefox and Edge-chromium)

The issues are with mobile browsers n...

Fixed Error 404 issue

Addendum: The new E11.1 Build solves an issue with content logging, I can't create Cut-scenes without knowing what users are requesting at the family dinner. (IE: character shapes in use at the time) 

Players performing clean installs, not having the image cache already in place would fail to download an image for which the name had changed.

The image now has the correct name and the game should be able to cache the content correctly.

Also, if you are l...

Let the Early access begin!

Good news, with as little as 1$ per month you can play-test the game! Of course, I recommend going for the full Blooperverse experience at 3$ which will allow you to enjoy the Theater features beyond "Even Better" which is always included.

For those who have been playing, here is where we're at:

  • The world building mini-news stories have been completed up to the end of chapter 17. (Image above) Chapters 18 and 19 are too spoiler-y to...

Despite the hours of regression testing, I'm sure there are still a lot of bugs to be found, so please: report those weird issues by private message along with the Game ID where the bug happened.

Read the release notes, there is a copious amount of changes to the game balance and new features as well.

Planning, retconning and updating...

We live an a messed up and unpredictable world. I already need to ret-con my 2022 outline.

Before we get to the actual update post, let me wish you all a Merry X-Mas or maybe XXX-Mass... Hanukkah, Kwanzaa,  Winter solstice... Summer solstice too I guess; if you're in the wrong hemisphere. Whatever you chose to celebrate, Name your poison. I'll have a drink thinking of you all and so will the 5' MILF!

Hi Patrons,

This week we reach a milestone (sort of...) the sprites database now has 800 different body shapes! I know, there are still gaps and they are being filled with every weekly update... 3 at a time.

Weekly content update: Ava again!

Hi Patrons,

Winter is coming and sooner or later, The Funky-Spice PC-Game BETA will be ending. It won't be release yet, the game will be moving into the "early access" phase as content is still missing for the full Blooperverse experience. Later, for the Freemium release version, I'm planning to take the game out of Windows and into the Browser.

Also, Starting with the February 2022 Reward, I'm going back to Star-ship Bloopers: M...
