Strap in folks, this'll be a pretty big news post. After a lot of deliberation and discussion, we've become confident in our decision of where Gobbosoft will be going next in regards to what we're making. We've talked about it in prior posts and in the Discord - to some of you, this'll be sad news. To others, well, apparently some pretty exciting stuff. So! Without further ado;

For now, the next proper update for MONOLIGHTER (v0.2) will be its last. Afterwards, we will be moving onto a new project. To some of you, this is more of an official statement than new information, but we wanted to at least give some breathing room before we announced it proper. 

Regarding the update, we have a roadmap for what will be introduced (more sidequests, more enemies, mission three, etc) and it'll be slated to be our biggest update yet. We're hoping for a November release, but we'll be able to give a specific timeframe later in the future. It won't tie up the story perfectly, but we're hoping to leave it off on a good note.

Our next project has already been decided, mostly by the comparatively huge response from you guys. Congratulations to those who asked for it, Gobbosoft will be officially making a Pizza Thot game. 

Keep in mind - we will be working on the MONOLIGHTER update in tandem with this. Even so, there are a few details we can disclose - it will place you in the shoes of a solely male protagonist, it will involve minigames, it will be semi open-world. We're testing out 3D environments at the moment, but the art itself will be 2D. Other than that, we will have more information to come.

So! That's it for now. I wish you guys well, and I hope that you can continue to support us through this transition. It'll be sad to see MONOLIGHTER go, but ultimately, it's a change that we personally believe is needed.

As always, have a good one.

I'm very excited for this. You can bet your ass I'll be going all-in for it, too. It's unfortunate for MONOLIGHTER, yes; but truthfully I couldn't find much footing in the game. I enjoyed the world but felt overall there was simply too little to do both in terms of the adult content (Doubly so given they were all just still images) and the linear nature of the project. The idea was good, just one that didn't pan out in a way that made me want to commit to it. The Pizza Thot project sounds amazing so far and I'll definitely be keeping an eye open for updates on that. Also in strong support of the male protag. I know that's not everyone's cup of tea, but for me personally that couldn't make me happier.

Sole male? Damn. Ah well, I still look forward to the game.

Super excited to see what comes of the Pizza Thot game! Like others have said, it's a shame to see Monolighter go but sometimes projects can't work out, especially the first-time run of a team making a game. So I look forward to seeing how you guys on the Gobbosoft team apply what you've learned on Monolighter to Pizza Thot and the overall product of the game! Good luck on the project, Gobbosoft!

Genuinely hope the male protagonist isn't a self-insert or similar. I would not be able to stand the game otherwise, for very personal reasons. "He is a guy" rather than "You are this guy", ya get me?

Thanks! We're glad to hear it! We're also very excited to perform more than simple monotone CGs.

Thank you! With Monolighter behind us, we're looking towards making our next project something we can push out even faster.

From what we have planned thus far, the protagonist will be their own character integrated into the story, with their own personality and unique design.

I'm sure many will be sad to see Monolighter go, and I feel for them, but for me personally, Monolighter was a difficult project for me to feel like I could get behind financially, as something about the aesthetic didn't resonate with me, despite having a desire to support the artists. However, Pizza Thot is something I enjoy greatly, so while it's hard to say if this is the "correct" direction for your team to go, it did at least gain you one new patron going full Hob. Looking forward to what comes!

I agree it's sad to see Monolighter go. However, that game made me really appreciate background art, characters and sprites. I especially LOVED the main hub with the rain, side missions and music. It all fit so well that I wished that it was raining during my play through. Even though the characters didn't speak, the dialogue and missions more than well showed off each personality and I couldn't ask for more (an even bigger hub world lol). With all that aside, I am really looking forward to the Pizza Thot game. When the character Tips came out, that inspired me to start creating my very own OC's (its not a beard, its a face mask) and look forward to seeing the Pizza Thot crew brought to life. I too look forward to what the future holds for the final Monolighter update, and the Pizza Thot game. (I play the freakin Hub theme on repeat!!!)

It could happen!
