Hard agree! 👍

Check out my setup from a decade ago! 😄
My desk setup from 2015. A foldable table with laptop, extra 3:4 monitor, keyboard and mouse, all perched on the roof of a boat house garage overlooking a very swimmable lake with ski course buoys on a summer day. A bottled margarita is opened on the table between the monitors.

If you answered 🔥🐸🔥 for both.. YOU WIN!

Get ready to wishlist PYROTOAD on steam!🎉
(I arted the art and
@brizobst
designed the design)

#gbc #homebrew #pixelart #indiegame
Pyrotoad on a pillow of clouds, looking off into distance. There stands a castle made of clouds! Pyrotoad is preparing for a daring wall jump on a pillar of clouds! Pyrotoad in afloat in a sea of lava, looking off into the distance. There is an evil fortress that lies far ahead! Pyrotoad doing what Pyrotoad does best... Shooting a fireball into some brambles blocking the path, in a fiery cave filled with spikes and harmful gas. Evil rock formations line the walls of the background, like jagged teeth from the mouth of a massive serpent. Will Pyrotoad survive?
