Pro Game Dev Tip: Don't have assets ready for that level? Never mind! Cropped photos and MS Paint are your best friends. Just don't expect anyone other than your team to understand what is going on.

Why not share the gift of the coolest ANZ-made games with your friends and fam this holiday season by introducing them to the Frosty Mini showcase 😎 youtu.be/Ji17SMaOtvg
While you're there, Frosty's asked for 500 subscribers for Christmas, and we're so close! 🍦

Our prompt today was to show our favourite view in our game, but one does not simply choose ONE view in Beyond These Stars...so here's four! 👀
