@sgt3v @threejs @unity @UnrealEngine Unity betrayed me; Google Play keeps changing the rules, so my 5-year-old game will soon be deleted because I can't change it according to Google's new requirements because it no longer builds in Unity. No wonder the next one will be done in a browser (probably threejs).

The only downside? I managed to break the game and get trapped in a location with no exits and nothing to do, so I will have to start from scratch (and I know for sure it won't be as funny the 2nd time through). But I'll do that anyway because I want to complete this gem.

I played Thank Goodness You're Here! by @coalsupper on PS5 last night, and it was excellent! Imagine if Monthy Python and Wallace and Gromit had a gaming baby styled like the Regular Show. Brilliant, surreal, and genuinely funny.

1980s game ads were wild. I do like the modesty of โ€œThis, and other remarkable productions are availableโ€. Maybe they also star Truly Scrumptious as โ€œthe Blondeโ€ or Gloria Goofbuns as Lady Astarte.
