Indeed! Some nice examples there

Ha! Yes. I love the contrast between patchwork/precision

It looks too neat to not be intentional. Just nice to think of a skilled roofer enjoying themselves.

This - after a public consultation that came down c95% against corporate copyright theft - is a hearty move towards this government’s spineless purchased representatives needing to be hoofed in the crotch by us all, in a big queue until they get the message.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Tomorrow she would begin again on the task of her life, her secret life."

The time we wrapped up copies of Gogmagog and Ludluda in old maps, tied them with string and sent them out with a bookmark and a stained Jim Brimstone's Navy Rum coaster.

The most beautiful book I own - probably - is The Iron Giant by Ted Hughes, a 1968 hardback. I think reading things like this as a child β€˜does things’ to a person.

The Signal From TΓΆlva on Steam The Signal From TΓΆlva is an open-world first-person shooter set on a distant, haunted, future world. Unlock savage weapons and recruit robots to fight alongside you as rival factions struggle to disco...

It might have taken almost a decade and some incredibly heavy discounts, but I noticed I missed The Signal From TΓΆlva passing 100k units sold some time last year.

A milestone, of sorts, for a forgotten game (which I am as proud of as anything I have ever made.) Thanks to all who worked on it!
