You might imagine that headline is a tad raucous, but it surely’s the unlucky reality just lately found by an Aussie game dev.
The information comes from the parents over at RPS, the place this curious phenomenon was linked again to indie dev Jacob Janerka’s Twitter page. He wasn’t speaking about video game nipples initially, however was as a substitute recounting the time a postman noticed his real-life ones.

The postman in query clearly received much more than he bargained for. Exposed nipples are one factor, however t shirts particularly designed for the only real function of highlighting your nipples and solely your nipples are one other factor fully. Janerka’s beautiful artwork piece exploded on Twitter.
Naturally, he did what anybody conscious of alternative would do: he used the viral tweet as an anchor for one more tweet, besides this one was to advertise his upcoming game. It didn’t go fairly as viral.

“Did a tweet about the viral tweet of my nipples converting to Steam wishlists, convert to more Steam wishlists?” Janerka contemplated. “It had 94 retweets and 844 likes. 79k people saw my nips vs wishlists case study. 17k people engaged with the nip case study. 48 people wish listed Dungeon Experience.” I’m no mathematician, however 48 folks out of 79,000 equates to fairly a small share of individuals (particularly, 0.060759493 p.c, I checked on a calculator).
If you disagree with this concrete proof and suppose nipples can certainly promote video games, you may wishlist Janerka’s game, The Dungeon Experience, over on Steam. Its deliberate launch date is at present “MmmmMMMMM.”
“Adventure awaits, for anyone and everyone,” the Steam description reads. “Except Greg!”
“If you’ve already visited, please come back,” it continues. “We fixed that smell.”
If you need to learn extra about this type of factor, we revealed a Witcher article not so way back that contemplated a “techwanker sucking soylent off the nipples of his Elon Musk body pillow to cheekily dismantle the economy in the name of productivity.” Read it.
