Ten years ago today we shipped Firewatch. I say this every anniversary but it feels both like a lifetime ago and like it was yesterday. Thank you everyone who played it back then or played it today for the first time. Thank you to everyone on the team, I’m still so proud of what we made.

"As Anthony Bourdain once said, “Food is everything we are.” A good meal is a gateway into a place’s history, an indispensable element of culture that can bring people together. Dosa Divas, the latest from Outerloop Games (Thirsty Suitors), embodies this idea." Thanks @elijahgonzalez.bsky.social !

Dosa Divas, a spicy narrative turn-based JRPG, launches on April 14 for PC, PS5, Xbox, Switch, and Switch 2. Demo is now available on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/2950710/...

A game where giant mechs cook dosas that you use to shut down a greedy fast food corporation is the kind of hook only Outerloop is capable of delivering! Super excited for this!

are you looking for a stylish turn-based RPG that won't take up 80 hours of your time? 👩‍🍳 may we recommend Dosa Divas coming April 14?

Now you too can play a slowed down version of a game from 20 years ago with no actual level design or enemies and all it costs is a complete collapse of the world economy, biosphere, education system, and multiple entire creative industries.

"I'm speechless." Here's a thank you letter from VEAP for everybody who donated to our ICE Out Charity Stream with @giantbomb.bsky.social! You can still donate, help us cross $275,000! bit.ly/iceoutminnea...

Despelote is one of my favorite games of the last few years. Documentarian and personal and unlike anything else I’ve played. Go run around as a little kid trying to make sense of the world in the shadow of the World Cup.
