Spoiler: this was the perfect bedtime game for me!
I played Anxiety Puppy this week and it stayed with me in the best way.
Itβs a cosy, story-driven indie game about anxiety and learning how to live with it, not against it.
The artwork is beautiful, and the message is hopeful. Full review on the blog β¬οΈ

Just wanted to share an achievement.
Here is a photo of me. I went to SquidFest and won the squid hat. I also caught all 5 legendary fish over the last few days.
I have decorated a room in my house to celebrate this.
I am now the fishing god.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. If youβre finding it hard this year, I know how you feel. Try and go easy on yourself and do some things that bring you joy, even if a little π«Ά

What you hoping to pick up??
Iβve just published my review of Log Away π‘
A design-led cabin builder with beautiful locations and strong photo mode tools!
A solid 4/5 for me, slightly held back by fiddly controls, but a great choice if you want something genuinely relaxing.
