Getting back home after a week in Ireland, a long awaited and desperately needed holiday after so many years of no breaks... who knew that regular meals, lots of walking and proper sleep can make you feel GOOD xD

I cannot wait to be back by my battle-station with this amount of energy😎💪😍

Huge congrats to all game jammers this weekend who participated at Spaceship Game Jam, organized by ESA - European Space Agency and Finnish Game Jam 🎉

We hosted a site at The HIVE - Turku Game Hub and it was such a blast, who needs rest when you can be part of an epic game jam!

Disclaimer - this is a lengthily post of my personal astonishment, also it is about quantum computing and game design, if it is not your cup of tea, move on and do not say I did not warn you 😄

One of the perks of being the CEO is that I get to test the first samples of the official merch that is getting ready for production 😍
