Nov-Jan have been Loco Motive's best consecutive sales months since launch. Long tail sales are never guaranteed, so this has been great to see in action.
We're also just 9 Steam reviews away from 1K - A huge milestone nearly reached! If you haven't left a review yet, you can really make it count!

Sometimes you see big posts on here that go so badly you can practically hear the PR team tackling them to the ground and wrestling the phone away. I'm all for it personally.

It's like the time Rishi Sunak ordered a government-backed NFT to be produced by the Royal Mint. (Yes, a real thing that happened) - haplessly embracing the latest grift.
BREAKING: Free AI training will be offered to every adult in the UK, with short courses to teach people how to use simple AI tools effectively in the workplace.

I appreciate this pure level of honesty rather than the surreal experience of seeing press taking review keys and never covering the game 😆

Worth noting we're about 25 reviews away from reaching 1,000 Steam reviews for Loco Motive. Every little bit helps! 👀
Small, free act you can do to bring some good in this world: add positive reviews to ALL you Steam games, especially the small indies. You don't need to write anything smart, just "game good" is enough. Every positive steam review tips the algorithm and helps your fav artists get more sales

Yes, I love this. I'm in support of shorter dev cycles in general as you aren't essentially betting the farm each time.

I'll just say I'm not picking on this specific person or their video - but I am critical of this continuing narrative when the genre has had two of the best consecutive years in recent memory.
