Really glad to hear that you speak from your own experience there. Let the gatekeepers do their thing, it doesn't matter. But it's beautifully put into the game, i'm grateful to have been able to play it. All of the messaging is great, thanks for telling these stories!
I truly hope your game finds the audience it deserves ❤️
It's so addictive though! I had trouble to put the game down at times 😅 just wanted to get one more thing done, and then another one more thing, and then...

A person is dressed in warm clothes and a deer stalker hat while holding a yellow sheet behind them, that’s caught in the wind. The following quote is included: "Enthusiasts for the genre or players strapped for time will likely enjoy the quick pace and short dungeons in Ratcheteer DX, but others will fuss over its sticky controls and obtuse tutorialisation."

Well then. After 9 years my role of Editorial Director at Eurogamer/IGNE has been made redundant. If you’re reading this and feel I have a lot of valuable experience (I do), I’m keen to explore any opportunities (full time, consulting, other) in the games industry. I am great.
Ryu walking into the sunset in the ending of Street Fighter II. The caption reads: "Already seeking the next challenge, ceremony means nothing to him."
Personal news: I'm leaving my Editor-at-large role at Eurogamer & Gamer Network as part of new cuts. I last year approached my move to Eurogamer & VG247's skeletonization with reluctance, but I ultimately greatly enjoyed giving EG a go. But now after 10yrs & in difficult conditions, it's time to go.
This is absolutely terrible news. @eurogamer.bsky.social and especially its video team have gotten me through tough times, and have reawakened my love for games plenty of times. This just sucks, pfff
I’m thankful to have a game early and that a few have been pushed out of March because the release calendar is insanely packed.
