This collage showcases a demo of Stay: Forever Home at Indie Media Connect during GDC 2025. The setup includes a VR station where a participant is actively engaging with the game using a headset and controllers. The space is decorated with banners and a life-size cutout of Ember, the game's stylized magical wolf character. A press kit with QR codes and promotional materials is displayed on a table. Screens in the background show gameplay footage, while a group photo of the team stands for a photo smiling. The overall atmosphere highlights an immersive and interactive experience designed to introduce players to an age-appropriate experience in the world of Stay: Forever Home.
A huge THANK YOU to all press and media who came by to play @stayforeverhome.bsky.social at #IndieMediaConnect!
Seeing so many pats and pets given to Ember had our hearts full. 🥰 Be sure to wishlist the game so you're the first to know when we go live in April: bit.ly/get-a-treat

The image is a meme titled "5 Ways to Eat Pizza," divided into six sections. The first section serves as the title with a background pattern of small pizza slices. The second row contains three labeled eating styles: "Folded," showing a person biting into a pizza slice folded in half; "Normal," depicting someone eating a pizza slice conventionally; and "Take Out Ingredients," which displays a plate with only the pizza toppings removed and left behind. The third row continues with "No Crust," where a person is holding a pizza slice but leaving the crust behind, and a final, mysterious section labeled "?????" showing Ember eating the pizza with it clipping through her face vertically as if the pizza is forced to be pointing down to the depths of hell at all times.
