Did some comfort art. Struggled with the eye placement for so long that I gave up for the night and never got to hair and outfit. Maybe in a few days I'll try again.

I'm trying to make this level a little easier to navigate with clearer symbols, fewer portals, and more connections between each area, but it sure is a challenge!

Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

Super grateful for everyone that put up with my nonsense this year. For those that worked with me on this crazy stuff, it was a lot of fun.

I've extended the deadline to December 3, since I'll be out of town anyway. Might take some late submissions past that, but the closer they are to the event, the less likely I'll be able do get them in!
Attention Indie Devs!
I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility.
The anti-spam key is "kook".

Google is nearly straight unusable garbage now.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea
