for a bunch of valid reasons (theme, scope, dev cycles) it's rare to see game UI integrate contemporary graphic design trends
so it was a treat to see 2xko join the likes of skate story and another crab's treasure in flexing some modern typography/layouts. i really hope they find their footing

It just occurred to me that I don't actually know what the "JD" in JD Vance stands for (nor will I look it up)

So here's some fun -- next week I'll be giving a talk at the Yorkshire Game Festival! It's all about what I believe underpins the fundamentals of game writing: trust.
