Unpacking was included in the "Design & Disability" exhibit at the V&A South Kensington, and they've now opened that exhibition at @VADundee. It'll be on view through October, and well worth a visit.

Unpacking will be leaving @gamepass.xbox.com at the end of this month, so you have just under two weeks to get to it if it’s been sitting in your “to play” list!

Congratulations to fellow Brisbane Indie Dev @abandonedsheep.com on the recent release of Schrodinger’s Cat Burglar!

While solving puzzles as a cat in two places at once you might even stumble across an easter egg/chick or two…
Mandy Han, head of maintenance 🔧, has a gruff exterior.

But inside her office? Something of a softer side...

I wonder what cozy game she's been playing? 📦

Honored to be a part of this deep dive into the Aussie games industry, all its ups and downs, and the great games that have come out recently. The landscape here is so unique, and we're so proud of our team (and still can't quite believe how much of an impact our game has had worldwide!)
This industry faced near total collapse in Australia. How did it come back from the brink?
Australia's game industry is levelling up, with independent studios hitting high scores despite ongoing challenges.

I adore Witch Beam’s game, Unpacking. It proved to be as calming as a “zen puzzle game” could be.

As usual, it also sent my mind to a variety of places, so I blogged about it for this week’s entry of The Tall Rob Report.
