Arcane Eats demo is out and, trust me, it’s super fun game. Go play it!
The Arcane Eats demo is available RIGHT NOW, fresh out of the oven and piping hot! 🔥

Serving crisp & crunchy card play, tossed in roguelike spices, with a heaping side of culinary humor - enough to whet the appetite for the feast to come!

Still lookin'!
Now for the bittersweet part of any launch day as a freelance worker, with the game out, I'm out looking for work again. So, need a UI/gameplay programmer, a top-notch senior/lead QA Analyst, a technical or educational game designer?

I'm open to freelance and full-time positions, hit me up! Please!

16th?!? I watched the start of the game, went out, had a very nice very long dinner with friends, got back home…….. and the game is still going?! WOW O.o

This new #gamepass pricing makes no sense if you (like me) play only a few games a year. A big game like the upcoming Outer Worlds 2, or even Silksong (that is very hard and consumes lots of time) monopolizes your gaming time. So you basically play only one game at a time, maaaaaybe two.
