It’s the eleventh anniversary of Dreamfall Chapters: Book One — and in about thirty minutes we’re hosting a stream on our Discord where I will try to play the first hour of the game (and answer your questions). Watch me flail helplessly as I battle with mouse and keyboard controls!

Always a joy to click through to see that, yup, an American posted this.

A reminder. No American "tax dollars" paid for Dustborn.

How can anyone NOT love our colourful, diverse, found-family, comic-book road-trip adventure? It's silly and wild and crazy ambitious; not perfect by any means, but it's heartfelt and soulful and made with a ton of love (and zero "agenda"). And Dustborn is SUPER cheap on Steam right now!

Oh thank god someone finally made a checklist. However I regret to inform you that going by this list Dustborn is zero percent woke.

Someone please give me $25MM and I promise we’ll make a pitch perfect open world Adventure Time game. You have nothing to lose except $25MM and worst case you still get to play an awesome open world Adventure Time game.

Norway is in Europe, part of the European Economic Area, and meets multiple criteria for Creative Europe and other European grants — which Norway contribute to financially. The information is out there and easily accessible.

Some people are genuinely deranged.

This is a user review of Draugen. Not Dustborn. Draugen: a game set in 1920s Norway with zero "propaganda", unless you count "mountains and fjords are real pretty" as propaganda.

Oh, and play Draugen! It's a neat little mystery, perfect October entertainment.

TIL the Mac command key icon is based on an ancient Nordic symbol commonly used to denote cultural locations and points of interest. Seen these signs all my life, used Macs for decades, never made the connection.

Some stories end.

Other stories take decades to find their way home.

One of the greatest joys of being in Japan: milk bread toast with red bean paste. At Komeda Coffee, this comes free with your morning drink of choice!

🎶 But it's actually sweet
All the time you've spent on me
It's honestly wild
All the effort you've put in
It's actually romantic
I really gotta hand it to you, ooh
No man has ever loved me like you do 🎶

Tokyo Game Show was amazing for Hello Sunshine — we had hundreds (!) of people stopping by to play the demo, and the feedback was very positive! Still early days but we will share more soon.

Nothing beats life and death survival in a post-apocalyptic world for bringing parents and kids together.
