Unless you’re some kind of puritanical fun-averse doofus, buy all of Size Five’s stuff and do everything else Dan says here. He’s mint, the games are funny and fantastic, and I’ve never been paid more promptly for any work I’ve done

If you enjoy Size Five and want to see it survive what is a very iffy time for the Games Industry, please do three things with your Saturday:

✅ Wishlist EARTH MUST DIE
✅ Buy a game on sale
✅ Share these links where you can

I’ve stopped slamming my front door, because it makes a big spider pop down to check his web and I’m sick of apologising to him

If they get to know you, you might be invited into the back room, where there is a wall peppered with tiny glory holes, through which dozens of beckoning fingers invite you to nibble straight from the vine

Are they eating each others nails in Penge

A photo of a store front in Penge. The main sign reads Penge Nails, but it looks like they’ve rebranded to Enjoy, and added a sign above that. So it reads ENJOY PENGE NAILS, which makes it sound like they’re selling bags of pre-bitten Penge fingernails. To my mind anyway. You might not think so

I’m in the same game as Verso from Expedition 33?! This is the most erotic thing that’s happened to me since I slipped in that puddle of cum and fell into a pit of dicks

I have a joke about Narcissus but on reflection it’s a little ponderous

I was driving so aggressively at the speed limit last week that a Peugeot stayed inches from my arse, overtook me then drove and five mph slower. It’s a wild brain to have

This is an example of a real joke I didn’t know I was making at the time

You know when you see something and think oh my god that looks exactly the same as the dog from The Perishers but it turns out it doesn’t really

A flea from Silksong. I don’t know if this is helpful to visually impaired people. Sorry

The dog from The Perishers. He doesn’t look like the previous picture of the Flea from Silksong
