The last time Aaron Foster spoke to @theverge.com was in 2012. He said, “making a good game is more important than a hard-set deadline. So we will keep it loose for now.”

13 years on, Routine finally arrives — and in magnificent form.

Here's what happened.

So nice to play the latest demo of @allwillrise.bsky.social at Play Praxis.
The art, writing and meaning that flows from this beautiful project, is as essential as the river it initially centres on. Check it out.

Lovely people + incredibly inspiring games & round tables. Big thanks to everyone who played Treeplanter, and the super Play Praxis team!

Accidentally left the flower bloom mechanic on while testing the winter levels in my game… but they are kinda pretty!

What do you think? Winter flowers: Yay or nay? ❄️
