🏳️⚧️For Whom The Belle Knolls?🏳️⚧️ @knollbelle.bsky.social · 06/07/2026You guys went from making several games a year, to only two games and one sequel during your time at Microsoft. You did Psychonauts 2, which was crowdfunded long before MS got involved, and then nothing until last October. Glad they didn't Ensemble Studios you. Finally unshackled, free at last. 010
Joey Joe Joe @digitalbuddha902.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Why’d you turn off replies on your layoffs post? Seems like you’re actually “taking things lightly” because you don’t want any criticism. Cause I can 100 percent guarantee that none of the higher ups at your company were part of the layoffs. “We’re a family” until moneys concerned right? 030
Phoenix @phoenixstarshi.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Psychonauts is a fundamentally important piece of art to me. I'm really glad the folks at the DF studio get to keep making games 😁 0170

Hyupo @hyuponiax.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Genuine question, if you can answer, but will revenue from previous Double Fine games go directly to you now, and if so, how soon until those sales only benefit you and not also MS? I have not purchased Keeper or Kiln yet but I absolutely will right away if it goes entirely to helping fund you. 150
