It's a lot of fun to play in parallel with someone. My son and I had a great time figuring it all out, both playing it sat side by side.

It was my game of the year last year - I took alllll the meat off those bones. Getting the speedrun achievement at the end was such a good feeling.

Exactly 1 year ago I released my normal gardening game ‘Grunn’

A big thanks to all of you who played it and supported me! I have received so many nice reactions since release.. it has far exceeded my expectations 🙏

Here's the relevant chart from the above report. It's rare to see such a clear, consistent slope in any social trend. That segregation is decreasing is perhaps the best evidence, least controversial social fact of modern Britain

A tabby cat with a white tummy sits on a bin looking down at a black cat sitting on the ground. They are hanging around the back of the kipper smoking shack in Shelmerston, which is a location in the videogame I am Dead.

Some excellent little guys from my walk around the City of London the other week.
A little naked golden boy, put up in memory of the Great Fire of London A statue of a bishop's(?) head mounted on a wall. I know who this guy is, sorry. A statue of an armoured guy with a halberd, inside the Guildhall. A coat of arms with a spider on the shield and the motto Weave Well. It's the coat of arms of the Webb family.

Just saw these stills from Akira Kurosawa's High and Low and said "Good heavens" out loud.
Man peering out of a bed of flowers with a reflection shining back from his glasses. Back facing shot of a man watching sail boats from behind a fence. Silhouette of a man pulling a gun on another man as he looks at the backdrop of the mountains Mustached man gripping his briefcase tightly, face scrunched up in a scowl, as he rides in a filled passenger car.
