Watch this yes. A very real, informative and at times painful capture of humans making a game. All the highs and lows, the laughs and the tears.

Kudos to the team for allowing this record to happen, and kudos to the film crew for putting it together in such a respectful way
It's true, we made a massive 33-episode documentary about it!

Time to climb! Cairn is available now.

Mount Kami awaits, unconquered.

This is what you trained for: fight for every meter of the climb and rise to the challenge.

This is a real gem! From how to setup your scenes, the stories they tell, the angles, colours, perspectives and tips and tricks to lead the eye.

Recommended reading for anyone interested in creating interesting environments.

Finished it over multiple sessions. A word-less story about transformation. Bravo @leepetty.bsky.social and team. Once again a treasure.
