This was a dream project in so many ways. I’ll miss working on these scripts every Saturday morning! Big shout-outs to everyone on the team, especially @moriyoshijon.bsky.social and @brilingual.bsky.social who were in the trenches with us for all 260 episodes. Thanks and ❤️ to all who watched!

Lumines Arise out now, $35.99 on Steam (10% off launch discount) buff.ly/EVvaMXv
$39.99 US PSN buff.ly/H7Ut3jc
My quick impressions: Enjoying it overall with the Tetris Effect flavor, challenge mode levels has interesting varied mechanics (one level only drops pieces on the music beat)
