I’ve been nominated for a Game Dev Heroes award in the Progression Advocate category and I’m honestly stunned.

Every nominee across every category is amazing, how am I here?!

So grateful and honoured❣️

Popping out of my burn-out cavern to scream from the rooftops that I've been shortlisted for a freaking award???

I am still very much in shock and I'm not sure what I did to get here, but thank you ❤️
