Finally met Dr. Emily Hauser, and she was wonderful! So kind, sweet, and just really lovely to talk to. Getting a little chat with her and taking some photos together was honestly amazing.

Plus, she signed my books with the cutest messages! 📚✨

This game is an absolute triumph of artistic vision and thoughtful design. Can we talk about that watercolor aesthetic? It's not just pretty; it's a fundamental part of the storytelling, evolving beautifully as you progress. It creates such a unique and immersive world.

I loved it 🎨♥️.

Just finished Gris and I'm absolutely floored. What an incredible experience from start to finish! The watercolor art style is just breathtaking - every frame feels like a painting. I was constantly stopping just to take it all in.
