this is a real indie dev horror story

an unorthodox game getting pre banned by steam and the team patently and methodically attempting to get in touch with a human at valve to sort it out and just getting nowhere
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Met up with @mixolumia.com at an izakaya and got gifted a snack by a nice random drunk guy who came over to our table to say hello. Then upon payment the waitress gave me a hand-made coupon for two free yakitori skewers.

(Is it two skewers or two per person?)

The highlight of the day for me though was Choanji Temple in peak autumn foliage season.

A little while ago we got ourselves a very tall and skinny bin, and today I finally got some sorting stickers for it!
We have three others for additional bin categories. I want to get some kind of crates or squat bins that will fit under our sink for those...

Yesterday we happened upon an elderly man walking his pet giant tortoise. They stopped for a snack and let me take a photo.

It's one thing to understand it. It's another to internalize it.
I've been getting a lot of help with both recently. 😌

(Diagrams by me because diagraming & documenting is a critical part of my internalization process.)

I know it's not Halloween anymore but I just finished this game and what a delight it was ❤️ highly recommend!
Spooky Express has just launched into Halloween and it's the perfect cozy-spooky puzzler for the long nights.

Take charge of the Spooky Express; the only rail service willing to carry the undead passengers of deepest, darkest Trainsylvania.
