When making a game about a bird, you can't really complain that your entire Discover tab is filled with bird content 😅

How do they expect us to work after @playtopia.bsky.social 😭

Emails mean nothing when you were competitively churning butter only a few days ago 🧈

Thanks for the memories 🫶

This week was a busy one! From Africa Games Week into the colourful chaos of @playtopia.bsky.social, we've been chatting up a bird ninja storm 🦜

It was great hanging out, watching people play our game & seeing local talent shine, but now we rest 🥱

We’re officially headed to @playtopia.bsky.social!

Come play a brand new build of Upupa Bird Ninja while also hanging out with a flock of local indie devs 🦅

Slash your way through new enemies, harness new powers, experience new artful rooms, and maybe even see bosses lurking in the tower 🪱

Hey everyone 👋

It's been a while since we posted a company update, so we thought it's about time for a new one! 🙌

You can read more about how we expanded the team and the game we jam'd together in our new post 👇
