"You did it, we did it": Anime girl horror game with wrestling finishers finally gets Steam release date as Valve caves after ghosting indie dev who made it

Solo developer Bad Wish Games has successfully cattle-prodded Valve into releasing their viral, PSX-style horror game Welcome to Doll Town on Steam after seemingly being abandoned by support staff.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, you did it, we did it," Bad Wish writes in a February 17 Twitter announcement. Welcome to Doll Town was originally meant to launch on February 13, but its new, Valve-approved February 20 release date is close enough. Bad Wish Games just seems glad to be out of the doghouse – I mean, dollhouse.

It was like a miniature meteor crashed through Bad Wish's world when February 13 came around and they realized their game wasn't launching. Doll Town – in which dainty Yumi summons her inner Stone Cold Steve Austin while fending off lifelike dolls in a haunted village, while also sometimes flashing her panties as she dances to 'Gangnam Style' – was trapped. GOG had rejected it outright, itch apparently determined its file size was too large for its platform, and Steam staff simply didn't "answer my tickets, they provide no support," Bad Wish claimed.

"I'm here leaving 80K wishlisters, 100K followers, for this shit," they continued to say in a February 12 post. "I should have made my game with AI and added naked [underage girls] in it, it would have been approved in seconds."

Notably, Welcome to Doll Town discloses on Steam that "AI has been used for prototyping scripts in early stages of the demo," and its childlike protagonist is described as a "student."

Oh, well. Just another day in Doll Town.

Steam might stop dev from releasing viral horror game just by ignoring them: "Be prepared for the game to be delayed until further notice."
