We once had to buy some merch just so we could get in contact with a developer. Remove friction, reap the rewards. You’d be surprised how much harder some folks are making it for themselves…

Look Gary, there I am!! Just found out that Foldy popped up in @debugmag.com Issue 13, in the Hype Machine section! Super grateful to be featured alongside several other awesome-looking games in such a great publication :) Thanks very much @mostlyalright.com ! #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev
