A magazine ad. Phoenix, Abby and Baphomet are all at urinals. Abby is looking back at the viewer with a smug face, while Baphomet and Phoenix look at awe at her... um... big package. Above Abby's head is "She's Packing So Much Heat". A description of the game and a bunch of logos and screenshots describing/showcasing the game is shown around the artwork.

Remember the Rayman 3 ad with the urinals and innuendo? Waffle Iron Studios remembers!

Abby from Project Absentia, on her knees, crying openly at the fact her pizza box is empty - just a single crust and the little plastic "table" put in the middle of it remain.

Project Absentia is done with QA. We're gonna be announcing news soon about our plans for release.

In the meantime, have Abby crying at an empty pizza box.

A picture of Sasha, Sanya and Abby standing around laughing worryingly at the fact Abby broke Phoenix's house by removing a wall panel she thought was a drawer in the wall, while a questionable Phoenix Plush sits in the corner on a table. This is a redraw of a scene from The Grand Tour, the successor to Clarkson/Hammond/May's tenure at Top Gear, where James May broke a panel in Stalin's house in a similar fashion.

"I've broken Phoenix's House. I'm going to the Alegheiri Device XD" - Abby

Sanya decided to redraw that one scene from The Grand Tour where James May breaks Stalin's house. You know the one.

BTW, we'll have some news soon, QA's going very good!

A fake magazine ad for Project Absentia. Ransom font says "Are you fucking stupid?" and has four screenshots below, the Project Absentia logo in the corner, and a silly drawing of Abby in the background, making a silly face.

Time to start sharing some fun stuff for Project Absentia. Let's start light.

A fake magazine ad made based on a similar meme by wondermagenta on Twitter back in the day. If you know, you know.

Abby from our game Project Absentia being chased by man eating plants (who are very hungry), and various flavours of Orkanpol. The artwork is a homage to the Atari 400/800 port of Pac-Man's boxart.

When those plus and minus keys are actually useful

Sanya, a tall and chubby redhead humanoid with a monkey tail, is holding a carton of E-enriched egg nog and a stack of presents, smiling from ear to ear. "SACCHARINE MENTIONED!" is the first line of text. The second line of text is "HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM WAFFLE IRON STUDIOS"

We've been seeing our Holiday Season themed FPS, Saccharine, mentioned a few times here and there on this site and others and it warms our heart.

Happy Holidays from all of us at Waffle Iron Studios!

it'll be in PA down the line

Happy Holidays from all of us at Waffle Iron Studios!

Between my sales budget (whatever PC Gamer is paying me to hunt for hidden gems with) and tips from you INCREDIBLY kind people (thank you so very much), I have a mountain of wildly varied games to dig into over the holidays and beyond.

My curiosity shall be sated.

Any use at this point for LLMs is non-existent except to make the planet hostile and miserable. I refuse to use it for my games and for my art.

We're close to having news about PA's Episode 2, but it'll still be a bit.

Seasons greetings to everyone and remember to don your gay apparel!
