Cat's out of the bag! While I didn't work directly on the build launching today, I've been collaborating w/ KO_OP's marketing team on playable microfiction set in the world of Young Suns! You'll also, I'm sure, see world building I've contributed make its way into future future stories in YS proper.
We're excited to announce YOUNG SUNS: a new narrative-rich co-op life sim set on Jupiter. Experience life in an optimistic future full of colorful characters. Play solo or with up to 3 friends. Visit planetoids, ruins, and stations. Craft and decorate. Help society heal.

Man imagine if California made its wealthy people pay real, fair taxes and used some amount of that money to make art grants for tv shows on the level with the stuff Canada was doing in the 90’s. Everyone in the MPI would have a job again.
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.
A Wealth Tax Floated in California Has Billionaires Thinking of Leaving
It’s uncertain whether the proposal will reach the statewide ballot in November, but some billionaires like Peter Thiel and Larry Page may be unwilling to take the risk.
