Just Block 2025, day 1 Day 1 of Just Block at Highline Community College in Des Moines, WA. September 27, 2025

Finally got my pictures off of my camera from Just Block (not Push Block, despite what my brain keeps trying to make it). I only went on day 1 so these are only from that day. Had lots of fun and saw lots of good games.

Comic. [Two people on shore looking at body of water] PERSON 1: Hey, where’s that big island we were looking at this morning? PERSON 2 with short hair: Oh, it’s underwater. The ocean’s depth here goes up and down by like ten feet every day. PERSON 1: What? PERSON 2: It’s because the planet has a big moon orbiting near the surface. It causes weird gravity effects. PERSON 1: *What???* [caption] People here are used to them, but tides are one of the weirdest and most sci-fi elements of life on Earth.

As a reminder, Star Rift Saga's launch discount ends tomorrow at 10 AM! Pick it up at a discount before then!

I've also teamed up with other Portland-area developers! For each of these bundles, if you already own one of the games you'll get a discount on the other one without needing to repurchase the entire bundle. It's a way to support more indie developers and get a deal.
