I want to thank people who took the time to read the document and watch the video I shared. It is also important to me that it is understood: I do not believe Matthew, Paula, Monique or Naveen (or anyone else) had involvement (or awareness) of the actions the owner of Game Night Picks took. 1/4

PNP Arcade is now closed.
I'll be posting all of my PNP games to itch for the time being. Today I've added Crownfell, Crownfell: Last Stand, and ExoShip there; I think those were the only ones missing:
