So much news this week we can BARELY CONTAIN IT. OH wait, we couldn't contain it at all, so we had to go over time a bit to answer questions: 10% more podcast for the same price! We're also pretty sure no one even reads this things, so maybe we should stop writing them...

It's a big week for St Louis makers! The Global Game Jam is this weekend, which is also the one year anniversary of Crashlands and the 5 year anniversary of our studio.

Also, fellow St Louis game studio Hive Jump launches their first independent title TODAY (http://hivejump.com/).
