This is a message I sent to @lauraryder.bsky.social regarding how her soundtrack for Give Me Strength paved the way for Blue Prince. You need to play GMS and you will agree
I didn't think I was going to post this which is why I'm eating apples :)

We are using the Bevy Engine to make Wee Boats. 🐦
The engine turned 5 years old on Sunday and the creator gave us a lil shout out in his birthday blog post! Nice surprise to get of an afternoon!
Cheers @cart.work and @bevy.org! 🤘

We brought a demo of Wee Boats to a boat party on the local legend of a boat, Epos!
Always fun having it out for people to play! 🤩
The party became too much for our poor wheel and she's become injured. We will just have to rebuild stronger and wheelier than ever!
