I really like the consistent use of いらすとや stock images

Great job completing the final puzzle - it's not an easy one! I've received similar questions from other players as well, so I’ve added an entry to the Q&A section on the mod page. I try to avoid spoilers where possible, but if you're curious, feel free to check the Spoiler section there.

As for the Pump Pury cover art, I kindly ask you to refer to the note (Remark) section on the mod page. I won’t be commenting further on this topic here, as I've already explained my thoughts there. I value the overall artistic identity of my mods - not just the content itself, but also the name, icons, description, and visual presentation.

I understand that not everyone may agree, and I fully respect your right to make your own judgment. If it doesn’t suit your preferences, I sincerely hope you’ll simply choose not to use my mods. I never intended for this to become a source of conflict. I simply hope those who enjoy it can continue to do so in peace.

Thank you! I'm really happy you enjoyed it!
Spiffo and I are sending lots of love your way! 🦝💕

@LordOfLimes
Thank you so much for your kind message. I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed the Pump Pury Mod - especially if it brought back memories from your own pump days. That means a lot to me.

Regarding the flag, yes, I’m aware of the issue. The cover art is actually an intentional homage to a certain Björk photo that I really love, and it’s closely tied to the identity of the mod. So even though I understand why it might trigger the system, I’ve decided to keep it as it is.

Thank you again for your support, and I hope you enjoy exploring the toy mod as well!

シンプルなパズルですが、意外と楽しくて私もポチポチやってしまいますꉂ(ˊᗜˋ*)
コンテキストメニューの件は私の環境では再現できなかったのですが、今もですかね?
ご不便おかけして申し訳ないです…

@Perseus
its a suggestion from one project zomboid modder to another on how to avoid a very likely easily preventable outcome you brain rotten idiot.

why use that problamatic image again? and why cover "that" exact area in text?
that shows the OP knows its bad, will most likely ended up flagged again.


you're being played like an idiot.

My man, I'm sure the problem is on you for having your mind in the gutter.
I don't see anything sexual on the pump pury cover art.
Ω Spriggan Ω 4 Sep @ 10:59am 
if you're concerned about your mods being flagged as sensitive content
then don't use a picture showing an upskirt of a young girls underwear.


its just going to get flagged as sexual content, because it is sexual content.

スライドパズルが本当に遊べる!!終末のZomboid世界でこんなに楽しいModがあるなんて!
スピフォのハンバーガー屋にいく楽しみができました!
スライドパズルのSPシリーズは番号ヒントなくて大変ですがじっくりクリアしてみますよ


私の環境が42.11.0なのですが、置いてある台にコンテキストメニューを開いても選択肢が出てこなくて、家具の移動と回転をやるとメニューが出てきました。
他のMod全部外しても同じでした。

Yet another excellent mod from one of my all-time favorite Zomboid modders! I always know it's going to be a great day when I see a new upload from you @ PePePePePeil ! (:

Sorry to hear about your other mod Pump Pury being unjustly flagged. It is such an excellent mod (it takes me back to when I wore pumps!) and it is a shame to see it unjustly flagged and hidden from some users. /:
Just in case you didn't see the comment left here by @Quilava , I think it very well could be Mastercard and Visa pressuring Steam. Maybe replace the thumbnail with one inspired by a different Bjork pumps ad?

Anyway, I'm looking forward to decorating my base with all the toys I find in my travels around Knox country!

@Kable
Thank you so much for playing through all the sliding puzzles - completing SP.4 is no small feat! As for the “something happens?!” mentioned on the gacha card... well, you’ve already experienced it. The true effect is deliberately hidden, but there's a hint in the title of the final puzzle itself. It might not shout, but quietly, it does something very important - especially if you're in a certain... condition.

@Kippy
Haha, love the reference! Actually, the name "My So-Called Toy" is part of a little naming theme I’ve been using - inspired by The Ataris’ “My So-Called Life.” But hey, a bit of Venetian Snares chaos energy doesn’t hurt either!

@Quilava
To be honest, I don't plan to re-upload or remove the current image. The cover art itself is actually an homage to a famous photo of Björk wearing the Pump Fury - it’s an essential part of what makes this mod “Pump Pury” to me. I see it as more than just a shoe mod; it's a playful tribute wrapped in a little pop-art flair.
Kable 7 Aug @ 6:24am 
Thank you for considering the Gumball machine @ PePePePePeil

I have completed Spiffo's Sliding Puzzle (SP.4) and did not notice any "something happens?!" I don't seem to have any other interaction apart from playing the said puzzle again.
Quilava 7 Aug @ 5:04am 
Cant believe they flag your shoes mod, my guess is some arse report about the image of the girl show some panty, i saw some modder complain about thing like that before in other game, bet that how it get flagged

Steam recently getting more strict because of Visa & Mastercard pressure via third party, it best that you just reupload the mod with image removed

@Sneezingprince
Thanks for trying out so many of my mods.
I'm really happy to hear you're enjoying them. :cherrypie:

@SAYAYO
Yep, looks like it's time to start picking up all those coins you used to ignore.

@Xeno
Sorry, this mod is for Build 42 only. Because of major map changes in B42, the machines are placed based on new shop layouts. Also, each capsule toy lineup has its own unique behavior (some are even playable or wearable), and keeping compatibility with B41 would be quite complex.

@moonracer
Keychains are definitely a great fit for capsule toys. I was actually planning to include them, but B42 added quite a few new key rings, so I decided to hold off. That said, I’ll probably turn the idea into something else fun instead!
PePePePePeil  [author] 6 Aug @ 5:58am 
@Slvggy
Thank you! More fun stuff coming soon :)

@Hy
Yes, this mod is safe to use with existing save data. I've also included more details about this in the Q&A section, so feel free to check it out if you're curious.

@Jday
Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it-Spiffo approves too, I think. :spiffo:

@John FBI
Please do not eat the toys.
There is a choking hazard, especially for small children. 😉
PePePePePeil  [author] 6 Aug @ 5:47am 
@Kable
Gumball machines aren't very common in Japan, where capsule toy machines like the one I added are more typical. That said, a gumball machine would fit really well in Knox. The basic system could be reused from the current gacha setup, though I would need to prepare custom graphics for the machine itself. I'll add it to my TODO list. Thanks for the great suggestion.

@Pompadour Nautice
Thanks! Some machines are purely for collection, like the miniature Pump Pury series. Collecting and displaying these little items is such a fun part of the game. I’ve prepared a variety of lineups and plan to keep adding more, so I hope you’ll try to collect them all.

@Strider
Some of the toys in the lineup can actually be used or played with in-game. I’m planning to keep adding more that help players forget the zombie world for a moment and enjoy a bit of childhood fun
moonracer 4 Aug @ 1:53pm 
Love this. I think a set of key chains could be fun.
Xeno 4 Aug @ 1:16am 
Does this work in B41?
SAYAYO 3 Aug @ 7:58pm 
Finally I have a use for my jars
Sneezingprince 3 Aug @ 4:44am 
Another great mod by PePePe :8bitheart:
John FBI 3 Aug @ 3:18am 
is there a option to eat the toys?
Jday 3 Aug @ 1:20am 
BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE IT:spiffo:
Hy 2 Aug @ 7:00pm 
Does it work if I add it mid-game?
Slvggy 2 Aug @ 1:30pm 
this is awesome! <3
Strider 2 Aug @ 12:25pm 
I love this! would love to have more toys you can interact with ingame, bring out the characters inner child
Pompadour Nautice 2 Aug @ 12:08pm 
Heck yeah, new collectibles!
Kable 2 Aug @ 5:44am 
:wiseoldman: this! Can you do a gumball machine too?
