If you're going to #PAXAUS as part of #MIGW then you MUST check out the NZ CODE stand. I've seen every single game on show and if you can't find something you like then I'm afraid you are clinically dead.

I really recommend Blippo+ - it lands the absurd alien tone its going for, has some great earworms, and emulates that bygone channel hopping sensation wonderfully (while never feeling overwhelming with the amount of shows 'required' to follow the story). And A++++ for having a Teletext mode.

Quick reshare for the Monday crowd

Re: @frostygamesfest.com, looking to get an indication from devs with key news (game announcement, surprise release, or a first demo launch) that would be aligned to a DECEMBER timeframe.

If you can pls DM me, that would be very helpful! TY!

Amy PJ 🌺 @ MIGW @hellomisspotter.com · Sep 12

I realise posting this on a Saturday is not ideal, but, hear me out.

We are trying very hard to keep Frosty alive, and even grow it into something more helpful for ANZ based devs, long term 🍦
