Btw, as a small sneak peek of what's to come, the Fishtronomy content update will let you 'pet' the fish!

(The sound effects have been approved by my dog - but now she thinks there's a toy in my computer)

I recently found this site that has human-curated radio stations: www.nts.live
This has completely changed how I discover new music

NTS | Don't Assume

NTS is a global radio platform broadcasting music from over 50 cities around the globe, live 24/7.

we don’t need anything to make music. music belongs to everyone. sing and dance and express being alive; speak it like you do a language

Ahoy Bluesky! We're docking in the San Francisco Bay next week for #GDC2025 and Ernest (the worm) and his repurposed glass home would love to meet #gamedev and #indiegames community members!

Will we see your ship in the port as well? Which pier are the girlies docking at? Let us know!
