The theme of this year's drive is "treat it like it's ending"! (though obviously it's not) Because I think if there's going to be a big widespread groundswell of support for something it ought to be *before* it ends. pizzapranks.itch.io/indiepocalyp...

We were in London a few weeks ago and were lucky enough to learn about the existence of Death Note the Musical *and* manage to get released day-of tickets half an hour before the show and let me tell you I have thought about it like every day since.

i encourage you to go on itch/steam and sort by "new releases", or check out recent game jams. try the unpopular games and, if you like them, leave a comment! things like that mean the world to small (especially unknown) creators. without that, the full horse would never have been possible.

The Draftula demo out Now! The Count has risen to wreck havoc on the Mortal World. But first, you must build his castle. My game is a roguelike twist on the block-dropping puzzler where you try to build up his fortress before the pesky hero comes to knock it all down.
