It is now 1915, middle of who knows where, and MR MIRAGE is about to give a performance you'll never forget.
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, step right up and wishlist now!

Amazing haul at the Taschen sale yesterday! Doomscrolling is passé; lazing on the couch flipping through glossy 5kg doorstoppers while smoking opium is the new cool.

Yesterday I slipped on ice for the first time in my life. Fell flat on my back with a terrifying 💥PLATSCH💥 Nothing bruised except my ego, though.
Serves me right for going outside instead of staying in with a cup of hot chocolate, making music for our stupid game.

This is literally what I did with act 1 and 3 of If On A Winter's Night, Four Travelers. Your choices don't change the ending/outcome, but they do change who the character *is*, adding different nuances to the story. Such choices ARE meaningful.
We recently read this excellent article by @hannahnicklin.bsky.social about one of our favorite games, South of the Circle and we had to share!
Choices don't always have to change the story, it can be about how we perform it.

Things have been proper busy and stressful these days, so unfortunately we haven't had time to make a bespoke Christmas greeting for this year.
Instead, let us share a little secret hidden away in our DLC/Supporter Pack, and our best wishes for 2026.
Much love 💜

Me: man, when we finish The Many Sins of House Ocampo I'd LOVE to make a game inspired by Last Year in Marienbad. I'm sure NOBODY has ever done anything like that.

The Many Sins of House Ocampo soundtrack is going to kick so much ass, you have no idea.
I'm only using this stuff for a 2-minute cutscene, but it's so refreshing to get to play some sick slide guitar licks again after years of making only ambient and atmospheric stuff 🤘🏻
