Art, creative, bit of business and happy codebase wrecker to get what I want.
Everytime someone mentions ice here, it takes me a second to figure out if they are Europeans living in ice-y conditions or Americans living in... ICE-y conditions.

The benefit of everyone being on holiday, is that I get to endlessly play with our dynamic (and rather threatening) Overgrowth(tm) system.

Everyone loves travel.
Travel is the one thing we’ve got left.

Or so the Instagram ads tell me between warnings about microplastics and the climate death of the planet.

Shards of earth - A. Tchaikovsky

It’s a gripping read about planet-sized threat. It’s smart, it’s well written, and it’s a depressingly accurate depiction of how we would likely handle a looming apocalypse: by bickering about who’s fault is anyway, while the sky turns into a masterpiece

Chania is such a dramatic little town. Like my fashion sense, it’s not entirely sure what it wants to be.
Sunny? Cloudy? Old? New? Touristy? Local?

I like to review places when I travel. So here is one no one asked for that is unnecessarily long:

Peskesi - Heraklion.

In the center of the city, a location primarily occupied by people hurrying to places they would rather not be, sits a restaurant that is, quite improbably, very nice.

Knossos palace is, essentially, a pile of rocks that was bullied into a specific shape.

Humans have a habit of trying to out-rock earth. Which is a little like trying to out-wet the ocean. Usually earth wins by just being a lot bigger and staying a lot longer. Knossos does a good job of trying.

Spending a week alone travelling through Crete (who needs Christmas!)

Heraklion is alright, but happy to be moving on today. Best moment so far was a road trip to Matala with a spontaneous little mountain hike to a secluded beach!

This year has been a ride! I am very happy to announce our new game and new studio! 🌱🤖

I mean, it has a troubled fridge and a flying toilet - not to mention a flexible understanding of reality.
The good stuff what games are all about!

What do you think?

"Hello World-If you think the world is ridiculous now, wait til you see the ending."

Rimworld + Stardew Valley + Fallout.
The apocalypse we deserve.
