Coupon Clipper is going to be at PAXU!
Copies of it'll be sold at the Indie Games Night Market, alongside @drawnonward.bsky.social's Fold & Fly!
The game has had a very rocky life, but I'm excited that at least a handful of copies will be able to reach people.

Stuck in traffic listening to the Dodgers give up back-to-back home runs is not my idea of a pleasant ride home.

Dodgers looked flat tonight. Offense has been scuffling and needs to wake up. Need Snell to be Snellzilla tomorrow then Yamamoto for the win in Toronto. Silver lining about tonight's loss: Going to bed at a decent hour! #worldseries #dodgers
