What beautiful hope we can generate together - our dear friend is coordinating food parcels for the influx of displaced families in Mawasi. They are coming with nothing (and don't have any campaigns or income). So he's stepping up, and YOU can help. chuffed.org/project/mawa... [corrected link]

We are hours away from the release of Interstate 35, a visual novel about scavenging and going home, from @juliemuncy.bsky.social and other wonderful collaborators.

It's also the first game I've published in a decade. Please wishlist and share if you can!
