A screenshot of a Windows file explorer window showing the first playable build of Dohyō Dreams: Rise to Yokozuna. The folder contains three files: DohyoDreams.pck, DohyoDreams.console, and DohyoDreams (an application). The files are timestamped July 8, 2025, 23:20, marking the moment the game became an executable for the first time.

My first game.

It crashes sometimes. The art’s not final. Characters occasionally fall into the void of nothingness. But it runs. It’s real.

My daughter was the first to play it. She laughed at the funny parts.

That alone made everything worth it.

The Great Hitch Hunt is upon us! I found a bunch of Hitch Hunters at the #FirstPlayable conference to join the hunt.
"Kill the hitch!"

I was at #FirstPlayable this year in Florence, and it was a wonderful event 🐸✨

Amazing talks, meeting incredible people from the Italian videogame scene and the whole world, and the beautiful city as a setting, thank you to all the organizers and partners that made it possible!

Great meetings, great people, great views, great food at #FirstPlayable in #Florence. Fantastic trade mission.

Day 2 at #FirstPlayable — done!
Met awesome people, caught the best vibes.
Brain’s buzzing (in the fun way)!
One more day to soak it all in✨

Wonderful evening chatting with the cohort in Florence as the blood moon sets. #FirstPlayable

On my way to #FirstPlayable and I saw someone press the smiley faces cleanliness feedback thing in the airport bathroom. I got fomo and now I'm pressing that smiley face each visit and it feels good. 😃

On the way to Florence for the #FirstPlayable developer conference with the BFI 🥳
