🔲 Figure out life ✅ Play the Usual June demo Why ask yourself the big questions when you can play a free demo for a really cool action adventure game featuring ghosts and crystal crabs and a group of friends also kinda putting off figuring out their lives? 👻 Demo out now! Full game October 28th!
Screenshot from Usual June. June is holding her phone and thinking "How am I supposed to know what to do after senior year? I barely know what to do now, let alone the rest of my life." You can also see her phone screen, which shows a to do list that starts with "Figure out life."

A conversation at SLICE that stuck with me (and I'm wildly paraphrasing): A veteran designer is semi-retired. He just can't see going back to a world where he spends the vast majority of his life trying to convince people. Most of your brain dedicated to arguing, not making things.
