The style of this is absolutely gorgeous!! Added, best of luck with your release!

Today marks 1 year since I quit my job to pursue a career in games.

I wish I had a success story to share, but the reality is that it has been incredibly tough.

But we move into 2025 with the same determination. 💪🏻
