for some reason back in 2017, I decided to make a website to make fake video game screenshots. This was a good idea and made a lot of people laugh.Here's to the Death Generator, eight years and 270ish games later!deathgenerator.com

Random Death Generator History fact:The second game to be added was SimCity 2000, added a little under two months later on Dec 18, 2017.

It was called "Sierra Death Generator" at the beginning, despite the very second game added being a non-Sierra title. In February of 2018 I called it "the increasingly inaccurately named 'Sierra Death Generator'"

You'd think that was when I dropped the "Sierra" from the name, oh no! Even though I stopped calling it the Sierra Death Generator when I posted about it, the name on the page didn't change for two more years, finally getting changed on Jun 15th, 2020.

the death generator has had one development hiatus, for legal reasons: for five days in June 2019, I wasn't allowed to update it because I'd signed an employment agreement that would have resulted in my employer owning it if I worked on it.

someone reminded me about the Death Generator's little sister, SorryPunk, the Cyberpunk 2077 apology generator: https://sorrypunk.comThat came out in Dec 18, 2020 to meme on the blindingly yellow apology CD Porject Red made to their fans over that ill-received game.

Anyway, three questions:1. What's your favorite death generator? I don't keep metrics (that my change in the next version), so I don't know what people use most.

I've joked before that I could have gotten 90% of the functionality of the death generator by just making two generators:1. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (https://deathgenerator.com#sotn) 2. Mario 64 (https://deathgenerator.com#m64)

Finally, a personal request: I've been bedridden for the last year with medical issues, and I'm just now finally getting set up with a surgeon to get them fixed. I'm not able to work in this condition, so if you can spare a few dollars, that'd really help. https://ko-fi.com/fooneturing

and a cash app ($foone) and https://paypal.me/Foone, if either of those works better. Thanks so much. I intend to get better and go on working on the death generator for at least another eight years and 270 more games!

@foone If you're looking for suggestions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom!_(video_game) As far as I can tell, I'm the only person alive willing to admit to playing this game.And somehow, today was the lucky day I learned about the generator!

@diazona @codingcoyote I pointed out to them that the death generator was technically several hundred cases of copyright infringement and any one of the copyright owners could sue, since with them being the money behind it, they might bother to

@foone Ugh, I hate that kind of "we own everything" clause in an employment contract. I do so much open source work that I always negotiate it out before I agree to any contract.
