We're recording the VO for this grumpy guy today! We think you'll love who we have doing it :)
This (still very WIP) battle is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL in our upcoming PAX West demo. Mirren can either bribe this soldier or draw her blade and fight!

We're SO excited to announce that Maggie Robertson has joined our incredible voice cast for War of the Western Deep!
Maggie has done some absolutely amazing work bringing Skora to life and we can't wait to share more with you in the coming weeks!
We're excited to be able to share the latest page of Beyond the Western Deep this weekend!
We know a lot of folks have been curious about tamian treewalker hunts since we first mentioned them in the prologue. Well, they're pretty intense!
It's been a long time, but we're happy to reveal a NEW PAGE of Beyond the Western Deep will be posted up this Saturday!
Crim probably isn't too thrilled, though. Find out what happens next this weekend!
To all our friends currently contending with Winter Storm Fern, we hope you're staying safe and warm!
You can find me on the lost colony of Tau Ceti IV in Bungie's new game, @MarathonTheGame, coming soon! Thanks to @bungie.net, @thehalpnetwork.bsky.social, and @eliastoufexis.bsky.social for the opportunity! So excited for you all to be able to play this!
Today's indie game: War of the Western Deep (sunsgrove.games). Currently just a demo on Steam, but a competent old-school LucasArts style graphic adventure, with gorgeous art. For people nostalgic for those days, this is one to keep an eye on (among many other graphic adventures in IGF this year).
Fortunately for Mirren they're not currently in the plan :)
Mirren DID mention brush spiders in our initial PAX demo! They’re quite the threat on the Border Coast!
(Actually WWD will have TWO new vulpin friends ;)
He’s going to be a lot of fun! All of them are, in their own way—it’s a small cast (and only a handful are represented here), but that makes each one stand out that much more! :)
Some fun WIP materials of what's coming together behind the scenes! New characters, new enemies, and fun new updates planned for the new year :)
After receiving an outpouring of requests for the once-exclusive Black Company hero skins, the amazing folks at @leagueofgeeks.com surprised me today: we can bring them back!
Every pledge at the Digital Collector's Edition or higher now gets the skins INCLUDED! www.kickstarter.com/projects/lea...
Love to see War of the Western Deep’s technical wizard @elecorn.bsky.social launch his amazing new typing-Kung Fu-dinosaur racing simulator on Steam and have it getting such amazing press!
The Kickstarter for Armello: The Founding and the Fall is now over 250% funded with eight days left on the clock.

We're over 225% funded and are SUPER CLOSE on hitting the $60K stretch goal that gives every backer a free set of cover art prints!

By popular demand, we added a brand new digital rewards tier to the Armello: The Founding and the Fall Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/lea...
You get the physical book/stickers/bookmark, AND digital versions of the Art Book, OST, and even a Steam code for a set of rare GEEK DICE in-game!
New enemies are starting to materialize throughout the forests of the Border Coast!
This crafty fellow has impeccable aim--and Mirren can't simply dodge his daggers. She'll need to find another way to knock them out of the air...
The Armello #Kickstarter I'm running with @leagueofgeeks.com just smashed its first stretch goal! EVERY BACKER is getting an upgraded book with gorgeous endsheets and a ribbon bookmark.

Congratulations, Armellians! Another legendary artifact from the Kingdom Armello has been brought into the real world.
Big love to our friend @tdcpresents.bsky.social on a successful campaign!
First stretch goal has been announced and is almost there!
www.kickstarter.com/projects/lea...
It's been about 3 hours and we're now... 98% FUNDED!
Hit the link and check out the campaign early to grab some of those limited reward pledge tiers :)
Sunsgrove founder @tdcpresents.bsky.social had a chance to chat with the fine folks at @videogamesaregood.bsky.social about why we're making War of the Western Deep and the importance of balancing the light and the dark in all-ages stories. Check it out here!

Western Deep co-creator Alex Kain and the amazing crew at @leagueofgeeks.com are putting together a wonderful book of fantasy tales! Definitely check out the campaign when it launches next week!
That last animation we posted was a bit blurry so here's the game-quality version!
Mirren visits the tiny village of Ardmoor many times throughout her journey, and her growing relationships with the townsfolk (like Finn the Innkeeper here) are a big part of the game!
Why thank you :) We'll have more to share of this fella soon!
This canid soldier looks a bit peeved, huh? These guys show up occasionally to guard forest paths, so he probably won't take kindly to nosy royal couriers trying to sneak past him...
HUGE congratulations to the Absolum team on their release, which features a really fun performance from Samantha as the speedy, grapple-arm wielding Cider!
