this gorgeous cover art for Continue magazine is full of Australian game references so I was zoomed in to see them all and was wondering if anything I’d made would be there, and just as I was giving up, I zoomed out…

It wasn’t busy here at ALL. I wonder if it’s always like this or if it’s still the off season for them. The museum inside the castle was really cool too.

Fukuyama Castle viewed from a little farther away, its black armoured side in full view and a little bit of one white side showing. A large tree stands next to it on top of the castle walls.

I picked a hotel super close to Fukuyama Station for convenience and did not realise it would come with this view right from our room.

Not this time! We’re in Fukuyama at the moment and staying in the Chugoku region or nearby islands for the whole trip. But we’ve booked our hotel for Bitsummit :)

It’s so funny because when we were in Nagoya everyone including people who live there were like β€œwhy did you come to Nagoya? πŸ€¨β€

But truly it was so nice! Great temples and shrines, a great shinkansen museum, lots of cool nerdy shit, a great science museum and great food! AND no crowds!

I love this. I have a somewhat similar story β€” Felicia Day streamed all of Unpacking, and when the credits sequence started she said β€œthey did a great job” and then my name came up and she said β€œWren Brier did an amazing job.”
If only I could frame a video clip.
