Survival Snippets #38

What day is it?

❗ Noteworthy

• As per a developer post in the Discord for Dead Matter - they are waiting on build validation from Valve, and then, after 24 hours of housekeeping and backend work, it should be all systems go on the game moving into Early Access. (I still need a key, in case anyone lucks out and has an extra that needs a home!)

• v15 is now live on the main game branch for The Infected! Kiss your build goodbye if it happens to be in the wrong spot- but it’s all good; we love building.
  (Steam News)

• The Day Before possibly chooses another unavailable name? Where is my Pikachu shocked face GIF…
  (MSN)

• The Long Dark Devlogs are my favorite things ever. I won’t even quote the info because you need to go read that shit and look at the beautiful pictures. The most crucial part- THEY ARE BRINGING THE MERCH STORE BACK BRIEFLY AS A POP-UP.

🌲 Hashtag Survival

▻ Plugging right along on things! I want to send articles out to our paid subscribers first - similar to how we did with the Podcast episodes with Patreon- except I have to see precisely how the backend stuff with Substack works. However, it looks like I can schedule it for a later release, which is neat…?
