Is it a 3D, over the shoulder, third person indie dev simulator? The visuals are crazy! 😇

Richard Naughton @richtotheardyo.bsky.social · May 4

Twice a week from the beginning of June 😇
Actually did a 10k last year from nothing! Joined Sanctuary Runner's Couch to 5k and did the 5k Park Run most weekends. Did an 8k than the 10k around October. It was a good time! Would recommend joining a group 😁
Godspeed 😄
