Cat's out of the bag! While I didn't work directly on the build launching today, I've been collaborating w/ KO_OP's marketing team on playable microfiction set in the world of Young Suns!

Tomorrow is a special occasion for Americans: Beat Ya Dick Day. If you have a dick, it's time to go to town on it: hitting, slapping, pinching, kicking — no holds barred. Try whapping it with a spatula, or snapping it with rubber bands; it's your dick, it's your day 🇺🇸
