Which video game character has the most aura they say?

Like... How is this a question?

Key art for the game Colorbound. The background features a rainbow of colors blended in a watercolor style with sketches of platforms as are found in the game. The game's name is featured prominently on the left while Anku, the main character, is blowing enthusiastically into a panpipe on the right.

Thanks to all of the families who came out for Fairview Elementary's STEM night! We had so much fun talking to kids about how they can start making their own games.

Okay. So I've been seeing this trend, but I want input:

Who would play Fernet in the Kernel Hearts movie?

Is #flashbackfriday still a thing or am I just old?

We were reminiscing about when we were just a wee baby company and found our very first logo.

It's amazing to see how far we've come.🥹
The original Whitethorn logo. Black and white text reads: Whitethorn Digital. Next to the text is a stylized image of a branch with thorns and small red berries, all covered with snow. The current Whitethorn logo featuring a snow-covered cabin in a wintry vignette. The text Whitethorn Games is shown in a whimsical font below.

Two logos for the game Colorbound placed next to each other to demonstrate growth. On top is the old logo which features more abstract concepts and characters. On the bottom is the newer logo which features more detailed pixel figures of the main character Anku and a llama.

We had so much fun welcoming one of our local Boy Scout troops into the office! It's fun to share what we do with the community and the next generation of gamers and (potential) game devs!

Two images together. The top is a still from the show Heated Rivalry. It shows Ilya talking on a cell phone. The text at the bottom reads: "I'm coming to the cottage." The bottom image shows the Whitethorn Games cabin with a poorly photoshopped image of Will Smith gesturing emphatically to it superimposed.

Happy New Year, Whitethorn friends!

Our office is closed until the 5th, but we hope you've been having a warm and cozy holiday, and we're excited for all that the new year has in store. 🫶
