Yai Gameworks 10-Year Anniversary Developer Stream & Sale2025-08-22Hey! It's window of the 10-year anniversary of Yai Gameworks! I've officially been making little horror games for 10 years now! Three things to express here.Firstly, all of the Yai Gameworks games are on sale on Steam right now at the cheapest prices they've ever been at for the Yai Gameworks 10-year anniversary.

Close Your Eyes [Old Version] Version 1.3.1 Update2025-05-12After the new content update released earlier today, including a new 9th ending, Girl's Graveyard being added to the main game without the need for the Goodie Bag DLC, that DLC getting more concept materials & old versions of the games, WASD movement, etc., had a few minor bugs I wanted to fix along the Rot ending path. I've fixed them now! I expect one more bug patch to fix anything else that may pop up, and then I think Close Your Eyes will be fully completed. Full focus and steam ahead to go to the remake. Hope you guys enjoy the update for the 10-year Yai Gameworks Anniversary, as I'm adding new content updates for all of my games.

Yai Gameworks 10-year anniversary; releasing FREE updates to all of my games!2025-05-07Hey! Did you know we're approaching Yai Gameworks 10-year anniversary? Well, now you do! I've technically been making games since 2013, starting with Blank Slate, but "Yai Gameworks" was made officially in 2015 as part of becoming a Steam developer to release Close Your Eyes: Redux on Steam. So I have some surprises for y'all! I'm doing a HUGE 10-year celebration. What does that entail? I'm going to update every single game I've released on Steam. This will start in a few days from now, but the updates will roll out through the next 477 days (until August 31st, 2026). I will not reveal everything I'm adding to these games here, just the core

Yai Gameworks 2020 Questionnaire Survey2019-12-27The Yai Gameworks 2020 Questionnaire Survey Form: https://forms.gle/aAHSNATPVih4uDcK7 Out of all the annual Questionnaire forms I've done, this 2020 one is the most important one so far. During 2020 and leading into early 2021, I have a sorta' time limit to get to a certain financial point in order to pursue game development full time. So I'm going to be trying my damndest during the next 15 months or so to get games out there and to increase my audience size, otherwise making games becomes a thing I do in my spare time (not the worst thing in the world, but it would limit what I can do of course). I've been crunching a lot of numbers, workin

The Miserable Crimson Hooded Girl releases on August 20th2019-07-16https://store.steampowered.com/app/667270/The_Miserable_Crimson_Hooded_Girl/ The Miserable Crimson Hooded Girl Steam Store Page is now properly up. Those who follow me on YouTube or are part of the official Yai Gameworks Discord may have seen me working some on this and talking about it during the last few weeks. This was previously the Close Your Eyes Intermission/2: Glass Vedalia page, but I decided to give it it's own page later as it's not a focus right now and probably won't be for a while. Those who beat The Twisted Puzzle and got one of the keys at the end of that will own this game on release automatically for partaking in that. Notif

As many are probably aware of I am a man of many ideas, and indeed probably too many. I release 2-3 games a year but dates get pushed back, some are left idling for months to years before they eventually release. I won’t promise this won’t change, but as a solid effort applying some strategies I’ve learned within the last few months and a plight to achieve one of my dream games, Complete Isolation, I will explain a crazy thing I’m about to try and apply myself to do, then the reasoning, and finally the specifics.
