I really loved writing fake radio ads in Cook Serve Forever. I think any time where you get to do worldbuilding within real life formats (like a 30 sec radio spot) is fun.

(Also game's gonna be great, we're working really hard on it!)

I'm so sorry, Jeff. That's awful. I hope you're doing as well as you can be given the circumstances.

I absolutely adore this! I was ranting to a friend the other day how I wished there was a Cahiers du Cinema for games, and here we are. <3

A few years ago I co-created a sitcom for Australian TV called Metro Sexual. Our broadcast agreements are done and dusted, which means both seasons are now on YouTube! Here's the first ep! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho5a...

Time Crisis is truly the perfect name - it's a title that could almost fit every game ever made. Cook Serve Delicious? That's a (Multitasking) Time Crisis. Death Stranding? That's a Time(fall) Crisis. Unpacking? That's an (Existential) Time Crisis.

Reckon he knew he had a banger on his hands when he was writing that one?

This really resonates with me. I adored the counter-culture vibe of early internet and found so much genuine community in its weird corners, but now it's just... noise.

Aw man, thank you so much Hien. We poured our heart and soul into CSF, so that means so much to hear โค๏ธ

I've been really enjoying Cook Serve Forever!!! The art, animation, story, music, everything just feels so rich and full of love. Today I got jumpscared by a Vietnamese grandma speaking some Vietnamese in the game? And a pun restaurant name that I will... tolerate... (I'm very picky about Pho puns)

One of the unfortunate aspects of #gamedev is we rarely have behind the scenes photos, so here's some from the week we recorded the game's voice work in LA back in July 2022. โœจ

Cook Serve Forever is out today. This game has had a profound impact on my life. Professionally, sure, but more than that because of the new friendships I've made and the old ones I've strengthened.
