Deluxe Paint on the Commodore Amiga Back when EA was cool, they packaged their software in album-style sleeves and promoted their developers like rock stars. I was a Dan Silva groupie.

We made a Nintendo 64 demo for Revision 2025!

I don't often finish games, but I felt I had to make an exception for Stray.
Lovely game - looks great, plays well, and just the right length for me (8 hours with plenty of time to goof around).
