Yeah, it's a repost, but please play this at my funeral without explanation or context. It's as good of an understanding of who I am as you're going to get and the people closest to me will understand.

If a Ronaldo presents himself to you in threatening fashion, waste no time in spaying or neutering him with a double-knee to the ground, and then unleash your full combo to show him his place. New corner ideas. (Colors in honor of Ashita no Joe's Tetsuya Chiba. RIP) #COTW

Fangtopia is a puzzle game more than a city builder, but the placement of everything feels so satisfying. Build smartly enough and you can make big plans like an island-circling railway pay off. Very fun Halloween Indie-licious. #indiegame #indiegames #indiedev

You can tell Ken Paxton and Ted Cruz are complete failures of Texas culture because they chose the altogether shittiest barbecue joint among the many better options in New Braunfels, where the BBQ sauce runs and tastes like water and salt overpowers everything else.

Honored to be joined by my friend @tedcruz in New Braunfels yesterday. I look forward to working alongside him in the U.S. Senate to deliver for the Great State of Texas! 🇺🇸

It’s late and you should go to sleep, but it’s been like 17 Halloweens since Bad Romance came out and neither Lady Gaga nor Weird Al have assembled the obvious spooky season spinoff, Vlad Romance.

An Update on Early Access:
The Cygnus Cross team has made the difficult decision to delay the Emberville release to January 7, 2027. This decision wasn’t made lightly. After a fantastic Steam Next Fest, we realized we simply needed more time to include all the changes and improvements that we think will make the game the best it can be. Thank you for playing our Steam Next Fest demo, and for all the wonderful comments, suggestions, and feedback. Look forward to our Early Access release in January!
