BlackStump

It has potential, but it lacks a community and has several bugs that need to be fixed. It is still young, so I understand the buggy aspect but please, work harder to advertise and attract an audience if you plan to make a multiplayer game like this!

I love the style and visuals but that's about it. The world is small and empty and the minigames only work for one person. I played it with a friend, we both played the minigame at the same time but we couldn't see eachothers drawings. Besides the drawing minigame and the drawing on the ground, I didn't see any other games. I did see another creature besides the butterfly guy, but I couldn't interact with him at all. I'm also not sure if there's supposed to be voicechat or any type of chat? We had to communicate outside of the game. It's good that the game is free because there basically isn't anything to do. But I do see the potential, especially with the visual design! It reminded me of Don't Starve Together, I thought there was going to be a survival element with the ultimate goal of restoring the landscapes. Seeing that this game was made as a program project does make a lot of sense! But as a game outside of the program, it's lackluster. Hopefully I can revisit this game in the future and change my opinion! I would love to see this as a fully fleshed out game! :)

The scandalous skin made me feel a funny way, game good i recommend

This game is incredibly buggy and full of holes. Don't waste your time playing.

I found a copy of BlackStump on an abandoned USB drive I picked up during a walk in the forest. Opening a lobby, I had my friend join like any other game. But little did I know, that this would change our lives forever..... We had a blast dancing around and playing soccer in this charming game. We enjoyed the minigames together and dressed up our characters, but we just couldn't figure out what was up with that Cave...... it had a certain allure that draws you in no matter where you go across the map. Its charming darkness, the beauty of its opening... we just had to know what was up with that Cave. My friend and I approached it many times, trying different approaches, different tactics, different interactions. But nothing worked. The Cave was there as ominous as ever. When we began to lose hope, it suddenly happened. My friend went dead quiet and wouldn't respond to me. It went on for a terrifying minute or more, I lost track of time in the terror of my friend's uncharacteristic behavior. But then his voice finally pierced through in a quiet whisper. "The Cave.... the Cave, its calling me." Confused, I asked what was wrong, but nothing seems to reach him. His character slowly …
