It’s Steam Next Fest next week, and the short, standalone demo for It Takes a War is already live in readiness

The servers are spinning up. A conflict is brewing. But this is probably isn’t the kind of war you’re imagining…

If you solved the Mail puzzle in time, the key should be reserved for you. If you DM (or raise a ticket on discord) with your email can look into this for you.

Better to subscribe to newsletter, but yes - otherwise that’s how you enter the smaller bluesky giveaway

shoutout to @newobject.bsky.social for creating such a pure form of digital crack

We featured Ballionaire in our very first Bold & Bizarre Games Bulletin - back when the game was a prototype on Itch.io. It's been amazing to chart its success since then, and somewhat of a full circle moment for us.
