We are in the short rows of 2026. It’s August; four months
to go and then we are there. There’s
still a lot left to do in the year though.
Christmas, Thanksgiving… oh, and voting.
Don’t forget to VOTE.

I have been waiting all year for this game to come out! Think Stellar Blade meets Sekiro meets NeiR all wrapped in one; with an original spin on it… and a dog!
