We attended XP Summit Toronto this week, not to promote anything (we’re still quietly working away on something new 🤗), but to connect with Canadian devs and creators who are making amazing things. What a joy to share stories with so many talented people! TY to everyone who took the time with us ❤️

We recently expanded our tiny team of 3, to 9 people! That may still be small but it’s a BIG deal to us! We're excited to keep making fun games and have a better work/life balance with help from our talented team, and by moving to a 4-day work week. Excited to show you what we're working on next!

It was so fun to attend the Video Game Arts Appreciate Night at the @agotoronto.bsky.social this past weekend! It was so great to get to talk with ALTTL fans, amazing Canadian devs, arts supporters and those who are video game curious. TY to @jimmunroe.net and Nathan Huisman for inviting us!

We had the fortune of chatting over breakfast about our fav puzzle games with the wonderful PapaPupp and Pokie during their holiday to our hometown! PapaPupp has shared his love of ALTTL from the very start, and gifted us this beautiful gem from his collection! ✨💎✨ www.tiktok.com/@papapupp
