Ngl i got a little confused at the start, but i loved it, simple, and funny, characters look great, specially the Influencer. Do you plan on making we be able to change the sprites? or make our own character with likes and dislikes? I personally would love to draw my own character, specially since its simple sprites
But anyway love the game and definitivelly will be making fanart of this game
Probably some sort of upgrade system for the train to benefit different playstyles, different types of stations that have different bonuses or passenger distributions, maybe a proper tutorial instead of a how-to page.
For the time being I want to focus on getting a Squelchies update out and work a bit on Spacethumper 2. At the earliest I would be making updates to this game after judging is complete, but most likely later than that.
I'm completely stumped by the numbers and what is or isn't a good match beyond the most obvious pairings. They honestly seem to change from game to game. Like for some reason now the dieticians like max size joggers more than smaller ones??? I know not having barely any info on the matchups is 'challenging' but I just want to know what the fuck is going on under the hood that makes everything I learned playing the game suddenly become wrong.
Also some of the pairings seem almost impossible to get. Like, executives are only good with employees when the executive is really fat and the employee is really thin. Which almost never happens because once the bosses are fat EVERYBODY gets fat. Same with tourists and locals. And employees and locals on their own don't give nearly enough points for the space they take up.
Ya think I could get this to run on an android pc emulator (such as joiplay) somehow? Saw a video of someone playing this and just.. fumbling around and now I need to play this to repent for even viewing such stupidity
guys okay i think im doing a dumb thing but if i get 3 replys that makes me want to say this embaressing thing, ill say it, i just kinda cant keep it no more
Making such a game with this low amount of time is certainly a feat. You have a knack for being a game dev! I thoroughly enjoyed playing your game and I hope to see more updates to it.
On a semi-related note, I was curious about the mascot character. Are they considered male, female, or ambiguous? Genuinely curious. Thanks!
Hey, i saw that you had wonder about the mascots gender, i personally think that its a she because if you look a her chest, its segnificently bigger than others like local, tourist or any male tbh, and her nippleas might not be revealed in the stage 5 chubby but her boobs are still pretty huge when shes stage 5, so i think that its a she!
If you want the picture, i dont think i have the permission to send it to you, but if you find a comment posted by painter with a mario pfp, you can search for one of his comments with replys and the stage 5 mascot will be there
Expanding on SomeoneElse's store idea once more! I feel like the addition of being able to buy, one, maybe two more carriages would be nice, or just to overall make the carriages bigger. I feel like it'd be nice to have it so you can fit more passengers and therefore get through Stations 20+ a bit easier.
I also want to expand a little bit more on that whole lustful status I brought up last suggestion. I feel like if you'd place two lustful characters next to eachother, they'd become a lot more clingy to one another, having their moods be decreased severely if separated, but rewarding more points than usual when next to eachother, it allows for more strategy during session and whatnot, thinking about which lustful passengers are worthy of pairing up during a Station. Also, when placed next to one another, lustful passenger's time could also change to be matching, the lustfulness making them drop everything for their new lover.
God, I'm writing paragraphs for suggestions about a game where you put fatasses into a subway.
Bey guys, im back with somewhere 3 or so runs later i found 2 more max stuffed passangers, these were influamcer and tourist, i yet still cant find max stuffed mascot but i will attach the file links in the reply
guys uhh idk about what i said but i didnt disapoint you guys, and chubberdy can you reply to this to confirm if every one of them is max stuffed, thank you and here you go!
Looks like you've called the weights accurately so far, you might've wanted to wait until you got all of them and put them in one comment just to keep things organized though.
Hey guys, i kinda started to like this game wayy too much and started to collect the pics of fully stuffed passangers, today i collected the employee one, my actual goal is to see mascot fully stuffed because shes so cute, till i collect more!
Back at it again with... quite a lot to say, actually.
I feel like more sound effects would be nice in regard to larger passengers, like literally all I really want out of this is for you to be able to hear their stomachs growl and stuff, this could also work for like the status effect idea I said yesterday, so you can hear belches and whatnot.
I'd also like to expand on the store idea another user brought up in the comments, maybe you could buy things like lowering the point quota, but every single time you buy it, it gets more and more expensive. Maybe you could also buy a reroll if you don't like what you've gotten during a station. (this'd also likely cost more each time you use it.) Maybe you could also buy specific things for specific passengers so they might be more appealing to others or just be less moody, like, a towel for the Jogger so she can clean off her sweat, or a laptop for an Executive so they'll be too distracted doing work to realize there's a tourist or a local on the carriage. Simple stuff like that.
I also think higher weight stages could be a neat idea, like maybe the highest stage is completely immobilized, which can make specific status effects on them WAY more common, like bloated and possibly sweaty? (I'm not sure on sweaty, honestly, I feel like it'd defeat the entire point of Jogger.) So they're pretty hard to find people who actually want to be near them, which is why I propose ANOTHER status effect! Lustful, pretty much what this mostly does is that it'll amplify specific passenger's likings, while also making them a lot more forgiving to what would usually be their dislikes, for example, a lustful Dietician wouldn't mind being next to fatter passenger, it still wouldn't reward as many points as it would for if a normal Dietician stood next to a skinny passenger, but it's something. Lustful doesn't really care about other effects, a passenger can be a bloated fatass and the lustful passenger won't care, not one bit, they'll still want to stand next to them. (I'm not sure if this one is a good idea as it somewhat breaks Cook, I feel like it'd make her an instant pointmaker. I'm also not sure if this effect would appear randomly, I'm thinking it's something you can buy from the store and it's just there until the end of the round.)
Extra ending note: The full sizes make me go CRAZY I love them so much, I LOVE ssbbws and ssbhms I need them BIGGER
Oh hey man, im that one user and i like your ideas, i kinda see where your going on the idea but i have one question, have you gotten fully stuffed mascot? If yes, please please post it in the comment or reply i really want to see her and if you dont have an image can you tell me is the fully stuffed stage like where her clothes are getting destroyed (i have not seen that stage, i assume) or is it with the unsettled face where her shirt is like riding up, almost revealing her chest?
Oh i just saw this comment, its cool man congrats and i have a tip, try to like have more dieticians, pick chubbiest and stage 1s because they love when theyre like real close to eachother or like early on game if you have a free caridge you cam put them there, try to get chubby joggers, if dieticians wont pop out try getting chubby mascots, they might not be good but theyre op late game, after you get the mascots try to get really fat cooks and chatboxes but dont place mascot and chatbox together, they dont like eachother, if you get those girls i guess i can say, your good because i think theyre(diet. And cooks) code works kinda different from all other, i guess we can count influancer too
oh lets goo! Thank you man i really apreatiate it, she looks so cute and chubby, thank you again man, if you havent seen some tier 5s you can look in my comments replys if you need one (i dont have employee, supervisor, mascot and dietician)
REALLY fun seeing all the sprites and stuff, though the RNG does make it a bit of a pain to get all of them lol. Still missing the Dietician and Mascot but uhhhh best score I've seen so far haha
i would like to see a catalog type thing that shows all of the types of passengers and, their respective levels of weight that unlocks after delivering that passenger to their destination.
I think an interesting idea for an update could be like, status effects for the passengers? I know that sounds a bit silly, and it kind of is, but I can see it working as a way to spice things up. Like a bloated effect, that makes passengers less appealing to other passengers due to belching a lot, or maybe a ravenous one which makes the passenger with the effect get bigger with every stop. (This could possibly require more sizes because it'd be kind of pointless for a weight stage 5 passenger.)
This is unrelated to my suggestions but, what kind of animal is the Mascot actually? Are they just some person in an animal suit or is it just an another furry character wearing the costume of a dragon?
Yo, i think shes a grizzly bear because if you look up close its not tourists skin tone and grizzly bears are brown and theres no other grizzly in this game but the toung might be arteficial so there may be a polar bear but they have a room for a grizzly i guess, my assumption!
hey, i tried and played this game and i kinda have ideas and questions if the creator chubberdy will read it, if not at least itll be an idea!
idea: add a cash or curancy system in the game, thhat will present you to the shop when you get a few bucks (if chubberdy isreading this, idk how the curancy should be gotten, thats the thing idk) in the shop will be a food item witch will make the passenger that is fed sad/happy/neutral and that depends on their likings, after you feed the passenger, it will advance the chubbynes state to 1 (in that i mean he/she becomes 1 stage chubbier) its kinda a upgrade and a "satisfyer" if you know what i mean, there in the shop also will be another item i call it a "skip-o-station" this as it sounds like, skips the station like it just wasnt there (it doesnt do anything with passengers but decrease their time by 1) the last item i thinked of is a mega meal, its like the food item but its expensiver but advances the chubbynes state by 3
question: so i was wondering if you pretty please tell me if theres a chubbier mascot version than that one where her face seems uncomfortable, i kinda like mascot, shes so cute :D
Yeah a shops seems like the next logical step for where the game would go. All the passengers have five weight stages, with the mascots last one being where the costume starts getting ripped.
A great game, really enjoyable, simple, and well-made. If this game is updated, I'd like to propose two small ideas: a custom game and a passenger book.
Custom means the ability to customize the minimum and maximum weight of passengers. The book will allow you to view passenger types and their weight levels in the menu.
The people want more from this. And I can't say I disagree, IT'S SO FRICKING GREAT!!! Definitely following Chubberdy for more updates. I know I'm glazing but man it's that good. Idk I'm a sucker for puzzle games that don't time you and by adding impeccable fatfur art to that has got me completely obsessed.
Cool game but a lot of moments in game is unclear. Who is snooty or who likes conversation how much mood character have what effects checks neigbors or what are global and how much conditions affects moods. Beside that game is very well done, nice art and good sound design.
We decided part of the game would be the puzzle of figuring out some aspects of the web of modifiers and interpreting the more vague clues. Giving exact values or all the bonuses for every passenger explicitly for perfect optimization just didn't fit the game feel we were going for.
Great game, loads of fun. The RNG factor makes it really engaging to keep going in to see if you can get a luckier run going, and to see how big the passengers can get (some sort of gallery mode in a future update where you can just look at all the sizes you've seen in runs, or just releasing the sprites, would be fantastic imo, this art is something else) and it's fun to try and squeeze as many people into a train as possible while maximizing your points.
That said, the Joggers and Dieticians feel like active detriments to come across. If a Jogger is fat enough, they can negate the bonus the Dieticians get from being next to them - and seemingly vice versa, despite the fact that the Jogger is noted not to dislike anything - which negates the entire point of having them. And given that character sizes seem to naturally increase the longer a run goes on, their use falls off INCREDIBLY fast, to an extent that it feels almost unintentional.
Nah, the whole dietician/jogger being more useful early game was intentional, the early game being as easy as it is kinda makes it a moot point though. There's plenty of tweaks for balance that need to be made honestly.
Game seems incredible, unfortunately it seems to be running way too quick on my computer, the camera snaps to either side of the screen when I try to go back to the center to pick more people up. Haven't found a fix for this myself, since I don't know the cause of the problem. Looks quality though!
I've had this happen on one person's computer that I tried doing some bug hunting on and also couldn't find the issue unfortunately. It might be an issue with Godot itself, in which case I'll need to go to the forums and see if anyone's else has this issue.
Hello hello!!! Excellent game, I had this issue as well but figured out what was causing it, the game doesn't seem to have any v-sync enabled, causing it to overproduce frames and go at super-speed. Going into any GPU control panel and manually setting the program to use v-sync seems to fix the issue!
I'm addicted to this game. It's taking up hours of my life. I really hope this gets updates with more features and stuff because I'm absolutely loving it.
Things I'd like to see(but some of them are kinda big and crazy so I'm just imagining them, not expecting them):
1. Some kind of arrow that will point to where the passengers will slot in when you drop them. And maybe X out the cart when you hover over it and they won't fit.
2. Passengers with abilities that change the size or other characteristics of the ones they're next to. Obvious ones would be dieticians making adjacent passengers thinner and cooks making them fatter. Maybe other passengers could do other stuff, like stacking bonuses for the longer they're around, or adding likes/dislikes. Maybe even new passenger types somewhere down the line, too.
3. More info on the passenger bonuses and penalties. Some clearly give better bonuses than others, and I'd like to see that indicated with something like multiple pluses and minuses depending on the strength.
4. Upgrades! It'd be cool to turn the points into money and get to use the excess for something, like making the carts longer, or adding more carts, or specialized carts or seats that add buffs to a specific passenger type(or a group of types) or affect the passengers in some way(make them thinner/fatter, make them stay longer, increase points but reduce staying time, etc.). Stuff like this might even be for a seperate endless/management mode.
Oh yeah also I'd like fat joggers to be good for something. Putting them next to a cook doesn't give them any real bonuses, so pretty much any other passenger close to as fat is better to use.
I keep running into the issue where I end up on one side of the tunnel or the other which ends up with 1 guy on the right side unable to be grabbed because if I slide the mouse to grab him I move the screen to the other side, I wish there was a keyboard control to recenter them or like a zoom out option. Game seems fun but fighting with the controls makes it very hard to play.
You should be able to slide the camera over a bit by moving the mouse to the side and then back to the middle. I do know there's an issue with some computers where Godot games run way faster than they're supposed to, is the camera snapping to one side near instantly when you move your mouse over?
I'm actually very glad that there's male fatties in this game, especially after the recent update when they get REALLY big ; it's a rarity in weight-based games out here. I'd honestly pay money if it meant seeing a few more mechanics and development go into this fun little game.

hope i can somehow get the sprites cause my blind ass needs better glasses and cant zoom in further
game refuses to open... im not sure whats up. i just downloaded it and put it in a folder, what else am i supposed to do?
The first thing after downloading a .zip file- have you tried to extract it via right-click > using 7-Zip OR "Extract All"?
neither of those things worked.
Ngl i got a little confused at the start, but i loved it, simple, and funny, characters look great, specially the Influencer. Do you plan on making we be able to change the sprites? or make our own character with likes and dislikes? I personally would love to draw my own character, specially since its simple sprites
But anyway love the game and definitivelly will be making fanart of this game
they genuinely look so good… their design as well is asking for them to get fat
I might just make fanart of these characters at some pointerino... Been seeing plenty already, yes I have
if you are going to update this game next what would you add?
Probably some sort of upgrade system for the train to benefit different playstyles, different types of stations that have different bonuses or passenger distributions, maybe a proper tutorial instead of a how-to page.
Is there will be a sandbox mode?
No.
Ok
I gotta ask, will there be more updates to this in the future or are you shifting focus back to a different project like Spacethumper 2?
For the time being I want to focus on getting a Squelchies update out and work a bit on Spacethumper 2. At the earliest I would be making updates to this game after judging is complete, but most likely later than that.
I'm completely stumped by the numbers and what is or isn't a good match beyond the most obvious pairings. They honestly seem to change from game to game. Like for some reason now the dieticians like max size joggers more than smaller ones??? I know not having barely any info on the matchups is 'challenging' but I just want to know what the fuck is going on under the hood that makes everything I learned playing the game suddenly become wrong.

Ya think I could get this to run on an android pc emulator (such as joiplay) somehow? Saw a video of someone playing this and just.. fumbling around and now I need to play this to repent for even viewing such stupidity
I'm still pretty fresh with Godot so unfortunately I don't even know where to start for that. Maybe one day though!
guys okay i think im doing a dumb thing but if i get 3 replys that makes me want to say this embaressing thing, ill say it, i just kinda cant keep it no more
you should totally say it.,., :3
okay ill say it.. but guys hear me out dont judge me please...
i GOONED, yes GOONED and made a mess from mascot as a goon material.. im sorry mascot
Making such a game with this low amount of time is certainly a feat. You have a knack for being a game dev! I thoroughly enjoyed playing your game and I hope to see more updates to it.
On a semi-related note, I was curious about the mascot character. Are they considered male, female, or ambiguous? Genuinely curious. Thanks!
Hey, i saw that you had wonder about the mascots gender, i personally think that its a she because if you look a her chest, its segnificently bigger than others like local, tourist or any male tbh, and her nippleas might not be revealed in the stage 5 chubby but her boobs are still pretty huge when shes stage 5, so i think that its a she!
If you want the picture, i dont think i have the permission to send it to you, but if you find a comment posted by painter with a mario pfp, you can search for one of his comments with replys and the stage 5 mascot will be there
Thank you for the kind words! The mascot is a lady.
no problem!
When I run it, all it shows is a grey screen and then crashes after a minute. Can someone help me out?
bro I got a "Tween started with no tweeners" error. wtf I cant play I guess
Guys how do i rate this game, please help i just cant hold back but rate 5 stars
This is REALLY good, if you could, could you expand the gameplay loop and other stuff like that. This is great.
Expanding on SomeoneElse's store idea once more!
I feel like the addition of being able to buy, one, maybe two more carriages would be nice, or just to overall make the carriages bigger. I feel like it'd be nice to have it so you can fit more passengers and therefore get through Stations 20+ a bit easier.
I also want to expand a little bit more on that whole lustful status I brought up last suggestion. I feel like if you'd place two lustful characters next to eachother, they'd become a lot more clingy to one another, having their moods be decreased severely if separated, but rewarding more points than usual when next to eachother, it allows for more strategy during session and whatnot, thinking about which lustful passengers are worthy of pairing up during a Station. Also, when placed next to one another, lustful passenger's time could also change to be matching, the lustfulness making them drop everything for their new lover.
God, I'm writing paragraphs for suggestions about a game where you put fatasses into a subway.
You gotta be hired dude!
Bey guys, im back with somewhere 3 or so runs later i found 2 more max stuffed passangers, these were influamcer and tourist, i yet still cant find max stuffed mascot but i will attach the file links in the reply
SPOILER ALERT!!
sorry guys i forgot to snip out the employee and tourist, ill still search tho!
guys uhh idk about what i said but i didnt disapoint you guys, and chubberdy can you reply to this to confirm if every one of them is max stuffed, thank you and here you go!
pretty sure this dietina is stage 4 chubby but found her cute!
Looks like you've called the weights accurately so far, you might've wanted to wait until you got all of them and put them in one comment just to keep things organized though.
ahh ill do that than!
i love her soo much :P she just makes the image so so cute, i love you mascot
guys.. is this conciderd being a try hard or a fetish?
Hey guys, i kinda started to like this game wayy too much and started to collect the pics of fully stuffed passangers, today i collected the employee one, my actual goal is to see mascot fully stuffed because shes so cute, till i collect more!

just so happened to be my best round, too, first time I've surpassed station 23
Oh i just saw this comment, its cool man congrats and i have a tip, try to like have more dieticians, pick chubbiest and stage 1s because they love when theyre like real close to eachother or like early on game if you have a free caridge you cam put them there, try to get chubby joggers, if dieticians wont pop out try getting chubby mascots, they might not be good but theyre op late game, after you get the mascots try to get really fat cooks and chatboxes but dont place mascot and chatbox together, they dont like eachother, if you get those girls i guess i can say, your good because i think theyre(diet.

oh lets goo! Thank you man i really apreatiate it, she looks so cute and chubby, thank you again man, if you havent seen some tier 5s you can look in my comments replys if you need one (i dont have employee, supervisor, mascot and dietician)
REALLY fun seeing all the sprites and stuff, though the RNG does make it a bit of a pain to get all of them lol. Still missing the Dietician and Mascot but uhhhh best score I've seen so far haha

It's a secret! They just like to entertain everybody. That's mascot!
Fair enough, my friend.
Yo, i think shes a grizzly bear because if you look up close its not tourists skin tone and grizzly bears are brown and theres no other grizzly in this game but the toung might be arteficial so there may be a polar bear but they have a room for a grizzly i guess, my assumption!

ahh, ill check that stage bc i really do love the design of the mascot, well thanks for responding chubberdy! i didnt expect but thanks rlly!
Really awesome game ! I’m loving the characters designs !
Ok so i got it to work! pretty decent game :D my score was 1063 (station 16-17)
A great game, really enjoyable, simple, and well-made. If this game is updated, I'd like to propose two small ideas: a custom game and a passenger book.

Reached level 25, not bad.
1. Are the levels endless until failure
2. How many weight stages are there?
Yup, no end state since we wanted to focus more on the core gameplay loop for the jam. each passenger has five weight stages.
Appreciated
Great game, loads of fun. The RNG factor makes it really engaging to keep going in to see if you can get a luckier run going, and to see how big the passengers can get (some sort of gallery mode in a future update where you can just look at all the sizes you've seen in runs, or just releasing the sprites, would be fantastic imo, this art is something else) and it's fun to try and squeeze as many people into a train as possible while maximizing your points.

Going into any GPU control panel and manually setting the program to use v-sync seems to fix the issue!
I'm addicted to this game. It's taking up hours of my life. I really hope this gets updates with more features and stuff because I'm absolutely loving it.
Things I'd like to see(but some of them are kinda big and crazy so I'm just imagining them, not expecting them):
1. Some kind of arrow that will point to where the passengers will slot in when you drop them. And maybe X out the cart when you hover over it and they won't fit.
2. Passengers with abilities that change the size or other characteristics of the ones they're next to. Obvious ones would be dieticians making adjacent passengers thinner and cooks making them fatter. Maybe other passengers could do other stuff, like stacking bonuses for the longer they're around, or adding likes/dislikes. Maybe even new passenger types somewhere down the line, too.
3. More info on the passenger bonuses and penalties. Some clearly give better bonuses than others, and I'd like to see that indicated with something like multiple pluses and minuses depending on the strength.
4. Upgrades! It'd be cool to turn the points into money and get to use the excess for something, like making the carts longer, or adding more carts, or specialized carts or seats that add buffs to a specific passenger type(or a group of types) or affect the passengers in some way(make them thinner/fatter, make them stay longer, increase points but reduce staying time, etc.). Stuff like this might even be for a seperate endless/management mode.
5. Bigger. That is all.
Oh yeah also I'd like fat joggers to be good for something. Putting them next to a cook doesn't give them any real bonuses, so pretty much any other passenger close to as fat is better to use.
joggers give a bonus to dieticians even if they're overweight
The fatness eventually cancels out the inherent bonus, though.
god im so happy to see fat florans i could DIE

I keep running into the issue where I end up on one side of the tunnel or the other which ends up with 1 guy on the right side unable to be grabbed because if I slide the mouse to grab him I move the screen to the other side, I wish there was a keyboard control to recenter them or like a zoom out option. Game seems fun but fighting with the controls makes it very hard to play.
You should be able to slide the camera over a bit by moving the mouse to the side and then back to the middle. I do know there's an issue with some computers where Godot games run way faster than they're supposed to, is the camera snapping to one side near instantly when you move your mouse over?
It is! So that's probably what's going on. I'll have to look around for a fix on that.
I've been told it's probably a vsync issue, so that might be worth looking into.
I'm actually very glad that there's male fatties in this game, especially after the recent update when they get REALLY big ; it's a rarity in weight-based games out here. I'd honestly pay money if it meant seeing a few more mechanics and development go into this fun little game.
