Ending the work year feeling very thankful and unbelievably privileged to have worked with so many great people and talented teams who've trusted me with their games as a freelancer.
Shoutout to all of the press and creator pals who've believed in those titles and have shown them some love, too 💛

$1 million for a Game Awards Trailer is a way over my budget.
So, I'm going to post my Cat train idle game here for free and reposting is free as well!
What a great deal!

"Scrabdackle one of the most immersive open-worlds I’ve played in recent memory, and cements it as the best metroidvania you’ve never heard of." 💛
My review of Scrabdackle, a special game almost solely made by an ambitious, talented maniac called @jakefriend.bsky.social .
Not only is Scrabdackle fun to say, it is incredibly fun to play. My personal pick for 2025's hidden gem. Congratulations to jake and @fellowtraveller.games.
