Are we crazy for doing this for a little South African indie game festival?

Showed our game at Playtopia last weekend. Might have gone a little overboard with our booth.

Sneak peak at a Tom and Dad Games project- Tom's City! He loves drawing buildings and maps we're so trying to turn it into a semi-incremental game so you can draw one like he does!

Super excited to share that I will be attending @playtopia.bsky.social in Cape Town in December! I've heard such good things about the festival.

I'll be there giving a talk (playtopiafestival.co.za/program-satu...) and exhibiting a new iteration of Canopy Co-op (doougle.itch.io/canopy-coop)

I promise I'm prepping for this recording instead of just playing Shroom & Gloom all day 😌

Come hang out with us tomorrow! I'm especially excited to chat with Ben @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social about design and balancing in a deckbuilder.
TOMORROW, Ben from the lovely folks at @teamlazerbeam.bsky.social will be joining us live to talk about the making of upcoming roguelike double-deckbuiler Shroom & Gloom!
