Update: morels are delicious, morels are in Raincaster.

And yes, things are tough in games right now, but we know it’s okay because after a day or so we all forgot that part and exhausted ourselves talking about what we love. Happy to be here. <3

GDC recovery mode this cold morning, feeling deplete-replete and all the warmth of a week of conversation on beautiful things.

<3 Will do!

😢 We will miss you!

RE that RT.. it’s wild how steam reviews are still so damn important to getting visibility. If you play and like indie games, the most generous and helpful thing you can do is spend an hour popping positive reviews onto anything you like with <500 or so reviews.
