Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes! In Blue Prince, the house changes each day, pushing us to plan, adapt, and shift our goals to try and make it to the fabled Room 46. This demo was incredibly fun, and I'm proud to have it be our first "Bonus Brew" -- a one-shot feature of a short game - or demo - that we think is worth paying attention to!
Bonus Brews are also a chance to invite folks on and hear from other voices in the industry! Today, we're joined by my dear friend, Josh Boykin, who is the founder of Intelligame (among MANY other feats).
