We are at 29 of 69.

If we can get 69 by the 31st that would be awesome

(If we can get it by our 11th wedding anniversary on the 19th that would be amazing ... and if we got it by our 17th together anniversary by the 20th that would be extremely cool)

So. October is Warren's and my anniversary month and we have a small goal we'd like to hit before it is over.

We currently have 23 subscribers on our youtube.

If we get 46 more, we hit a goal that is important to us because of Richard Humor and I believe we can do it!

Keeper is pure Double Fine brilliance. They've created a story that aims right at the heart of players of all ages, saying so much with so little.

Tim Shafer and Lee Petty of Double Fine want you to cry while playing Keeper 😂

I had a lovely conversation with both of these incredible developers and talk about their strange but cozy lighthouse game!

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all.

I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn.

Please, share this. 🖤

I think Single Strike GMax looks cooler despite being a bigger fan of Rapid Strike Urshifu in general.
