✨ v1.0.2 OUT NOW! ✨

A bug suspiciously similar (but different!) to the last one was raised on the discussion forum and it's now GONE too 🚫🐛🙌

In my next game I should just make no bugs! 🧠

Ah, browsing the internet and stumble across... whatever this is😟

Why use the actual key art in the press kit when you can bash some pish together with AI instead, eh? 🫠

Look at that! Go Kart Island running on a Steam Deck in the wild 🫡

Still waiting for that verification ✅ on Steam but if this isn't proof then I don't know what is.
Hey @ekenz.bsky.social Thanks so much for Go Kart Island, kicks-ass on the Steam Deck!

Promoting a game is well hard by the way. Are there people out there that enjoy this and do it for an actual job?

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU 🤨

Well, Lachlan seems to like playing his own game, hope he leaves a good review afterwards.

There's a few real life animals in the game! My wife's old cat Mushu fronts the illegal street racing scene.
November 10, 2025 at 8:29 PM
IT'S NON-STOP TODAY.

Launched 4 hours ago and now the game is in Animal Fest. So go buy it, and other games with animals. 🦆🦉🐘

You like animals, right? Of course you do. Otherwise you'd be a SICKO.

Good news!

Ranaming the game to "Mayor E.O. Kart" was deemed a "legal nightmare" so GO KART ISLAND is due to launch on Steam today at 2pm GMT 🙌

(6am PT / 9am ET / 3pm CET)
Two days till launch and the Mayor has filed an injunction to rename the game to "Mayor E.O. Kart" 😟

Apparently the E.O. stands for Elected Official 🙄 Curse you Mayor, this is not the time!

Wishlist and try the demo now!

YOU! Yes you! 🫵

Did you remember that Go Kart Island comes out on Steam TOMORROW?!

Remember to buy it or Officer Lumi will arrest you. That may seem harsh but I don't make the rules. 🚨

Got a good selection of new games this week, plus Thursday will be my birthday stream! While I don't plan on doing anything particularly special for that, come celebrate with me. And on Halloween, there will be some haunted puzzling.
