Unfortunately it's too late, I've already portrayed myself as the cool dog stealing sausages and you as the humidity riddled furious kitten.

This monday we launched Circuits, designed by Jacob Land, on Puzzmo ( www.puzzmo.com/play/circuits/ ). Circuits is an amazing game that was first shared with me by Josh Wardle. As soon as I played it I knew that Puzzmo would be perfect to help get the news out about this incredible game.

new article! the copied cathedral continues into BRANCH B. drakengard 2 is The Bad One: an infamous botch-job consigned to the scrapheap of history. that's a shame, because this game is messier, weirder, and a lot more interesting than it ever really gets credit for.

The Copied Cathedral: Drakengard 2

In September 2022, something odd happened. A group of talented NieR: Automata modders released footage of a church they added to the game on reddit and twitter. It was a pretty big accomplishment -.....

I get it man. I can see how it reads arrogant. I've got a heavy bias cause I met them last year but they were so genuine and even echoed a lot of this at the time. I had begun to sour before that but now I Fully Believe

yeah. I won't say they played it perfectly cause it's far far from it - but I'd take this over a 65 of the same 'next month promise' type kickstarter updates. it'll live or die by the finished product but I think this'll all be a distant memory pretty quickly

i mean it's that or let it go to your head and ego death explode.

the most wishlisted game on steam for years. and your just 3 folk competing with teams of hundreds. you can't stop and think about that. you have to just keep your head down and pretend it's all not there.

BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

This is their story: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Why ‘Silksong’ Took Seven Years to Make

The highly anticipated indie game has been in production for so long that it’s become an internet meme
