This is a message I sent to @lauraryder.bsky.social regarding how her soundtrack for Give Me Strength paved the way for Blue Prince. You need to play GMS and you will agree I didn't think I was going to post this which is why I'm eating apples :)

We brought a demo of Wee Boats to a boat party on the local legend of a boat, Epos! Always fun having it out for people to play! 🤩 The party became too much for our poor wheel and she's become injured. We will just have to rebuild stronger and wheelier than ever! #gamedev #arduino #bevyengine
