Whether you like Freddys or not, this is something pretty fucking awesome right here.

If I said when I was a kid “I want to make my own video game, all by myself, and there’ll be toys and Halloween costumes and lunchboxes at Wal-Mart!!!” someone would have explained to me that it doesn’t work that way, that games are products made by huge teams working for huge companies. One person doesn’t just “make a game” and be successful! That’s silly!

I’m so proud of Scott. Guy was working at Dollar Tree and near suicidal and felt like he was worthless, like God had literally turned his back on him, and he finally got his big break. That’s a Cinderella story if I’ve ever seen one.

I had already reblogged this because it’s so cool that an independent artist could create something so widely beloved, but I had no idea that those were the circumstances of his life when he made FNAF and as someone who’s on the same boat, this gives me a lot of hope.

It gets better–Freddy’s was an act of reclamation. He’d made a game and someone left a shitty review on it that said something like “This game is awful, and that beaver looks like a possessed animatronic.” and at first Scott was legitimately really bummed out & feeling dejected with that review, but after a while he was like, I’ll show you possessed animatronics.

Thinking about how that reviewer must feel now keeps me warm at night.

I also accidentally befriended a pro Widowmaker by the name of Belpheagor. She kept landing headshots on me and after like the 6th time I wrote in the chat, “Widow plz” because I know from prior experience that it tends to work. 

She wrote back, “Mercy I’m sorry, but I have to.” After that she only landed body shots on me, but she was definitely more hesitant to land any shots on me. 

Later, I was going around the back of the point to try and get to someone and I ran point blank into her. She stared at me through her scope for a few seconds; I “Hello!”ed to try and pull on her heartstrings. She shot the Pharah coming up behind me, gave me a look, and then grappled away. 

She wrote in the chat, “Did you see how I didn’t shoot you” and next thing I know I had a friend request from her.
