Getting stuck causes players to explore the world.
Dying causes players to think about what they're doing.
An "impossible" situation causes players to learn how the game works and eventually achieve the impossible.
We need to be able to design *some* games around these fundamental ideas.

If you have somehow missed the roll-call for review keys for UNBEATABLE, I am your guy.
Keys for streaming will be going out closer to launch.
I am being spammed to death by scammers, so make sure it's easy to verify that you are legit.
If we worked together before, you know where to find me.

All genres are a mess, but this particular genre is a particular mess that no one even knows what to call it. Worth checking out the video:

This wildly popular genre still has no Steam category. Let's change it!

Love how in a game like Baby Steps, when I finally cave in to look at a video, that person just does the same thing I was doing, but not suck at it.
