Working on an interior scene, as it's part of the first major cutscene. Part of it calls for the player character to look into a mirror, which meant I had to figure out How To 2D Mirror. Very happy with the result though! #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

In 2022 this propagandist claimed that Russia would conquer Ukraine within the first week of the invasion. She also claimed then that Russia needs two days to conquer Ukraine. I think Simonyan would sooner visit the Hague than Kyiv.

Jon Husted was ranked one of the most corrupt politicians in Washington, and honestly, we’re not surprised. Ohioans need a leader who will take on billionaires and special interests to bring down costs and support working families. That’s exactly what I’m gonna do.
