Timberline Studios snapped! What a great debut.

This gave me Trace Memory and Lost in Blue vibes.

Best trailer in the Nindies showcase, if you stop pretending that Cuphead was a shocker. (I want both)

A resource management game? So what does that mean? Do I actually get to drive the dogs?

This trailer made me feel sad... It's a really personal game, it seems, and I want it. :(

I wasn't the only one immediately expecting this, right?

Website says this is made of veteran narrative developers. Anyone knows who they are/what they worked on?

Looks incredible and it's a fantastic concept.

The sequel to the Green Lantern tie-in game looks weird.

Immediately thought it was a DC comics game and thought it was an odd choice to not do a (good) Green Lantern game instead.

Definitely tempted to pick it up and play it as though it's an alternate universe in Life Is Strange because the protag/narrator is exactly like Chloe.

Stand out game for me. I'll keep an eye on it. I'm wondering how it'll play. Can you lose/replace dogs?

I'm normally not a big fan of narrative-heavy games, but this looks really interesting. Hopefully it has great gameplay. Keeping it on my radar!

Yeah this definitely looks super interesting! Really makes a statement for a studio's first game.

So in on this. When I was in grade school we followed along with the Iditarod every year so I am excited to see it get some love from the games industry. Visuals looked lovely and it seems as if it runs really smooth.
