A plea for help. 🙏
One of the lead playtesters of Blue Prince, Iggy, has polycystic kidney disease and has only a few months to find a living kidney donor.

His story, contact and donor information can all be found on

Please help us in sharing his story and getting the word out.💙

My friend @tricko.bsky.social launched his first ever game in early access today! I’ve played it with him and some other devs over the past year, it’s great fun

It’s a cool take on platform/fighter, and it even has online multiplayer!
