I'm like 98% sure it's just a codename and MBT doesn't want to put his daughter's actual name out on social media, he wouldn't really name his child after Homestuck...

Okay 95%.

Wombat architecture critics. Two wombats see a cube-shaped house and one comments: Well that looks like shit.

For the Aussies, the zoologists and the architects out there.

My Steam wishlists have lead to some unexpected suggestions...

Yeah I'm going to MIGW -
Make Isopod Game Working before release in 17 days!

Jane Goodall came to our school when I was a kid. That whole week beforehand, all the teachers and faculty were freaking out and repeatedly telling us we had to be on our BEST behavior. This wasn’t some assembly about the importance of recycling, this was THE JANE GOODALL, who none of us knew.

We're just a few wishlists away from TWO THOUSAND! Help us make the final push!!

Isopod is gonna be out SO SOON I'M TERRIFIED!
go play the demo and wishlist please!

Screenshot from Dungeon Pizza. The kitchen (which seems to be underground) has shelvs of ingredients and 3 side tables holding dough, a butcher's knife, and sliced totatoes. There is a furnace and what looks like a pizza-themed rug. The chef character is a cat. The to-do list under the chef cat reads "Sauce Barbeque, Ratchunks, Orcbacon, Scarabs, Extra Crispy, Four Slice".

COZYSIMFEST FEATURE!

Make pizza using spooky fantasy ingredients in Dungeon Pizza - such as rat chunks. (The rat chunks image on their Steam page is slightly upsetting, just fyi)

A character which represents indiedev reaches for the balloon that says Finishing the game on schedule. A big blob appears pulling the indiedev away from the balloon, and it is ONE LAST FEATURE THAT REQUIRES COMPLETELY REWRITING THE GAME.
