Gee, thanks, Depression, for waiting until 7PM on December 31 to hit like a ton of bricks.

Me, reading all of the "name your biggest/favorite/greatest accomplishment in 2025" posts: "do I have to have accomplished anything at all?"

It is utterly wild to me that for my entire lifetime “you can’t use a calculator in math class” was a completely accepted position despite calculators being everywhere in real life, and “you shouldn’t use AI to write papers” is an opinion apparently so toxic professors jobs are being threatened.

My first (and only) drawing from 2025: a succulent that I just finished as a Christmas gift for my mom.

Tried soloing some new mythic Dragonflight raid bosses after a long hiatus... Got three of them down so far!

If 23 more people buy Ghost Hunter Simulator, we'll break 100 sales.

Zero marketing. XD

I may not be very good at anything I do, but I'm proud of the fact that I have not and will never use generative AI for any of it. Not for work, not for art, not for game dev stuff, not for anything. Ever.

We pushed our Christmas Patch - which includes some bug fixes and such. Also I decorated New Hamburger for Christmas. :D

We're not a part of the Christmas sale, but you have 3 more days to get our launch discount!

We love watching people play the game. It helps us find bugs, fix pain points, and make the game better.

If you stream it, let us know and we'll come watch!

If you want a game you know does not and will not have genAI used (at any point in the process), can I recommend Ghost Hunter Simulator?

We don't have Netflix this year so we had to uh... improvise for our Yule Log video.

The only way indies save the industry is if everyone helps. We can't do it alone.

This is why we at Prime8 repost games and talk so much about our friend's work, because we are critically aware of how important it is.
Today I bought 8 games that had been sitting on my wishlist on Steam.

I am also planning on reviewing at least 2 games I loved.

Consider supporting indies by doing something similar yourself this holiday season. You might be making that small indie company's year.

This is apparently the most "woke" font.

We also use it in Ghost Hunter Simulator, in case you wanted a hint at what kind of game it is. XD

I LOVE books on local wildlife and I love when they feature traditional
Illustrations. However, opening an otherwise beautiful example to see that their art entry for cicadas is the periodical cicada which we don't even have in California (let alone the local area) hurts my soul.
