I got bored. Less then 2 hours in a fresh #unrealengine project and ball rolling from scratch. This was called Viscid Touch. It was very fun to figure out back then and it was just as fun now. This is a bit rougher, but some tweaking would make it perfect.

A little late for the 7 year anniversary, but I've been feeling a little nostalgic for my first game Rollossus. Reflecting on it now, I'm proud of the work that we did despite the game being so small and simple. Maybe I will remake some of the work I did for funsies. #smallgamedev #indiegamedev

I'm just wondering, but when is the full trailer dropping?

Very well said. Powerful words like these are needed in these dark times.

A little something special that's been in the works for a little while. I'm honored to be a part of it.

I'm going to read Wilderness Kitchen while stuffing myself full of Nuts N Stuff chocolate bars. 🍫

A high-tension tower, covered in ice, with power lines fringed in frost. Screenshot from the survival game, BLACKFROST, sequel to THE LONG DARK.

BF team making cold things look cold.

(Reminds me of the Ice Storm in '98.)

Hmm... Is this perhaps related to a new weather type? Freezing rain maybe? 🤔

I'm so surprised, yet I knew we would hear something eventually. It's finally happening! 🥳

I about had a heart attack when I saw it. I'm still shaking!
