After a less than amazing holiday season it was nice to just sit down and draw this, I finally felt the actual reason for the season. Also Kiffin was freaking cool as heck and got something off my Throne wishlist which is the IRL version of what she's wearing around her neck! This kitty finally has a bell! Also my old friend Radical Negativity tipped me so I had to draw Doe festive and melting! Also last but certainly not least Fetterfetti has been a supporter for a number of months in the "supporter tier" over on my Ko-fi and I wish more people would join to guarantee a spot on my supporter sheet every month for just $5! I also have a tier that has a monthly sketch request at $10! Go click on the words and go to the places, I did a bunch of HTML from scratch in this post!

For whatever reason I'm finding it hard to find what exactly to say about this game. It's simply just a very impressive game, an incredibly speedy, snappy feeling platformer while easily being the best looking game of 2023 with an incredible soundtrack. Something that I beat in almost one sitting and something I keep thinking about revisiting in order to P rank every level. Peppino, Gustavo, and Brick are instant classic characters who I spent like a month after playing doodling. I had to buy the soundtrack the second it was released on Bandcamp and I'll happily relisten to 'The Death I Deservioli' whenever. There's a joke in this game, a two to three second cutaway gag, that had me laughing so hard I had to pause and just sit for a minute to recover from the comedy equivalent of a sucker punch. It was really cool to watch friends get real into speedrunning the game, something that from just trying the game for a few minutes became obvious that it would be a beloved speed game.

I can't quite come up with much stronger thoughts than this honestly, its just all an impressive show of creative force.

There should've been more levels with Gus and Brick.
