Pet days in the office, yay or nay? While we don't have pet days here, we do have a Groomba which is kind of like a pet. It will get under your feet, chew your shoelaces, or pull your ethernet cord if it's displeased 😅 #IndieDev #IndieGame #OfficePets #Pets

During character development, we *may* have taken some inspiration from some lovable characters in other media. Any guesses on this one? *Unfortunately since Philmore doesn't technically work for Paperclip Intl., he couldn't be included in the game. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
