If you‘ve got an opening in PR/marketing and want to hire someone who does good work and has a family to support, I’m your guy.
Any reposts super appreciated.

Arco main menu. A very large, gnarled tree is shown with menu options New Game, Options, Quit.
Arco screenshot of a desert landscape, with some trees, shrubs and cacti with mountains in the background
Screenshot of Arco combat. The single playable character Tizo plots movement against three enemies.
Screenshot from Arco showing a monastery village. White buildings with blue and grey roof paintings line an ascending hillside path.
Alright why didn't 50 or 60 of you tell me how god damn good Arco is?
Dude the landscapes are unreal
Really strong story hook, great turn based combat, really striking art...and that's just from the first two hours.
