History Trivia / FoxEye

* DoingItForTheArt: This circle is heavily creator-driven. Although Fox does encourage the circle's fans to support and buy the games he develops, he's so passionate about underwater fantasies that he's willing to share free artwork of his characters to his fans from time to time. Also, while nearly all of Fox Eye's games have the common {{Fanservice}} trappings of what can be encountered in other {{Ecchi}} and even {{Hentai}} works, such as BuxomIsBetter, ClothingDamage, and {{Stripperiffic}}, and some fans believe that Fox [[SexSells can make a bigger profit by focusing on those tropes even more]], fetish material involving underwater exhibitions and drowning perils still remain Fox's top special priority due to being the circle's biggest areas of AuthorAppeal.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: After over half a decade of direct communication between their Japanese and English-speaking fans, Fox Eye's Website/{{Twitter}} account was suddenly suspended for unknown reasons, with no clear conscious on whether it can be brought back or not. This also means that all of the artwork that was posted exclusively on the account is also lost. Fox decided to move into [[Website/{{Pixiv}} Pawoo]], which has a similar structure to Twitter, and continue with public updates there for the time being.

* LineToGod: Previously, you could have Japanese or English conversations with in his Website/{{Twitter}} account, where he tends to discuss the progress his upcoming games as well as small aspects of his personal life. He also occasionally posts exclusive artwork of characters from some of his games, or even draw new ones. However, for currently-unknown reasons, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork the Twitter account was suddenly suspended, and likely for good]]. So just in case it was unable to be recovered, Fox moved the circle's social networking outlet into Pawoo, which is an alternate form of Twitter that is run by Website/{{Pixiv}}. Check it out, [[https://pawoo.net/web/accounts/730837 here]].

* BreakthroughHit: ''VideoGame/{{Holdover}}'' is seen as one for Fox Eye, as it is the most well-known game from their catalog among the doujin gaming community and very likely their introduction into Fox Eye, as well as their most accessible game outside of Japan. Being a [[NintendoHard challenging]] [[FreewareGame freeware]] {{Metroidvania}} helped with that.

** In the trial of ''Sufferer: The Final Escape'', you can only play its TutorialLevel, which also happens to be the only level in the game (and possibly ''the entirety of Fox Eye's catalog'') where Yuna has SuperNotDrowningSkills. This is because Yuna's OxygenMeter never falls below half its length in that level, where she would've otherwise begun struggling for a breath.

* MilestoneCelebration: On March 3rd, 2018, Fox posted [[https://twitter.com/foxeye_fox/status/969593356497051648 commemorative artwork featuring a crossover between several of Fox Eye's regular, event, and Abyss heroines from 2013 to 2017]] for the circle's 10th anniversary. What makes this more [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments heartwarming]] is how this happened after Fox made a full recovery from an illness at the hospital a few days prior to the milestone.

* TeasingCreator: The trials of some of Fox Eye's games come off as this for the developer towards players who are getting into the games for their [[SignatureStyle drowning factor]].

* {{Vaporware}}: A ''Blue Port 2'' (which would've retained several more elements of the original ''Blue Port'' rather than 2011's ''Blue Port J'') has been planned by Fox for years since the release of ''Holdover'' back in 2009, with several work-in-progress pics and multiple development blogs about it. Many years and several more games later, it still has yet to truly become a reality.

* NoExportForYou: The original ''Blue Port'', ''Mermaid'', and ''Sufferer: The Final Escape'' have yet to receive an English translation, and are consequently harder for English-speaking players to obtain and understand since those games are only purchasable in the Japanese version of the ''[=DLSite=]'' online store. All of the other games have averted this, either because they're in the store's English version or because they're FreewareGames, but see GoodBadTranslation on the main page. To a different extent, "Whisper of the Sea'' was directly released from Fox to everyone that participated in his online Christmas Eve ceremony in 2016, meaning those who missed out on said event [[PermanentlyMissableContent missed out on playing the game, itself.]]

** ''VideoGame/HadesVanquish'' is a DoubleSubversion. Its trial version does allow itself to show Mana drowning once her OxygenMeter completely runs out, [[BaitAndSwitch but then it cuts out to an ad to buy the full version before Mana's drowning animation ends.]]
