- The Clown's Forest: Shadows of Blood - Coming 2027! - 4 August 2026
Hello Everyone!Today I would like to announce The Clown's Forest: Shadows of Blood It is a game set concurrently alongside The Clown's Forest 2: Waking Shadows. So what is Shadows of Blood? Well, Shadows of Blood focuses on Officer Dragon, set after the events of Chapter 0 of The Clown's Forest 2. Officer Dragon was kidnapped by Chester, and taken to a familiar location. But, unfortunately... Blitzo isn't too keen on letting you escape. Officer Dragon needs to try and escape from Blitzo, while you meet familiar and unfamiliar faces.This game initially started development as a Bonus Campaign for The Clown's Forest 2. The reason I turned it into a separate game is because there hasn't actually been a standalone game in the series since September 2023. (These past three years I have been focused on fixing bugs and overhauling both the first and second games because I wasn't happy with them…

- What is happening with The Clown's Forest 3? - 17 May 2026
Hello everyone!Today I want to tell you all the truth on what is ongoing with The Clown's Forest 3: The Final Act, and The Clown's Forest series as a whole. As you know, I originally announced The Clown's Forest 3's Demo to release on May 15th, unfortunately, RPG Maker started giving me a lot of issues regarding the development such as unfixable bugs, crashes, corruptions, etc. I effectively lost 3 years of progress on The Clown's Forest 3: The Final Act. I will be transparent that I have discovered the reasoning behind this. When I started working on The Clown's Forest back in 2022, the engine crashed, corrupting the whole project. Because of this, I had to reverse engineer the demo so I could continue development from that. After releasing The Clown's Forest, I duplicated the project and began working on the sequel, since I didn't want to rebuild it all from scratch. This made The Clo…

- The Clown's Forest (Version 1.4.5) - The Final Update - 13 December 2025
Hello everyone! I hope you are all having an amazing December! (And amazing holidays for those who celebrate it!) Today, I wanted to get a little sentimental with you all and confirm the patch notes for The Clown's Forest (Version 1.4.5).The Clown's Forest was a project I originally had no faith in. I never intended it to be a commercial product, or for anyone to play it other than myself and a few friends. However that all changed when I released this game on steam. I am blown away by all of the support I've been given since I've started development on this game back in March 2022.I released the game on July 19th 2022 as a one-off title. Never intending this to be a flagship series for my studio. But this series holds a dear place inside my heart. Nevertheless; I have remained committed to providing updates to this game over the past few years. On December 23rd 2022 I released an overh…
