In case you didn’t know - alongside Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator, we’re also making an arcade isekai driving game called Truck-kun is Supporting Me From Another World!

Early days, but here’s some cool visuals from the project as it’s coming together!!

I truly, DESPERATELY need you to believe me when I say that I did not have a baby as a Bit

(Me and my wife did have our first kid today though)

If you happen to catch the 35th anniversary release of TMNT back in theaters—you’ll see a commercial for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedown!

Such a deeply surreal moment, especially knowing it’s happening nationwide. So proud of the entire team!!
