The first part of the new podcast episode I felt a bit funny and in the second part, as you'll see at some point, my voice started to go near the end.

And then whatever it was hit me like a rock for the last two days. 🤧

Sorry for the lack of recent updates as well.

I've been incredibly unwell for the last couple of days and I finally feel on the mend... a little bit at least.

And I'm just juggling some personal stuff that I'm working on as well, outside of doing this and my job.

Will be adding another very exciting Patreon incentive in the coming days.

For those signed up, I'm working on that *other* one announced from last month this weekend, hopefully.

Stay tuned, I'll share it when it's up.

Not even an exaggeration. It must be heading there, if it's not already there.

"Does anyone know what the Deck Nine mass-layoff count is from the past 2 years or so? It has to be some kind of record."

The recent -- and incredibly telling -- reaction from Eric Drobile, who was a senior animator on LIS: DE.

He was at Deck Nine until February 2024.

➡️ Celia Duffala (September)
➡️ Branden Blowey (August)
➡️ Aria Vermiglio (August)
➡️ Webb Pickersgill (July)

All were laid off from Deck Nine in recent months. Awful news.

Celia Duffala, who worked on the motion capture production for Life Is Strange: Double Exposure and The Expanse: A Telltale Series, has now been laid off from Deck Nine.

The storm week continues... 🌀🦌📸🖐️❄️🐿️

Max Caulfield’s story with Chloe Price took *another* interesting turn in Don’t Nod’s Life Is Strange Episode 2: Out of Time! 🚂🔫

And Arcadia Bay’s fate would ultimately be decided only days later on 11th October… 💨👀

Could Life Is Strange 2, LIS Remastered & LIS: Before the Storm Remastered all be set for PlayStation 5? 🎮👀

The ESRB has now rated ALL three titles for PS5, sparkin’ speculation that native releases are on their way... 😮

It follows after the launch of the LIS Collection. ✅
