GDC Talk: Bear Hugs and Dev Tears https://schedule.gdconf.com/session/bear-hugs-and-dev-tears-building-stories-for-cozy-grove-camp-spirit/907863 Lead game designer for Cozy Grove; Camp Spirit, scavenger of knick-knacks. ❤️🐌 https://linktr.ee/aliciafortier

Camp Spirit is coming to Steam!! Super proud of this weird dead bear game; hope that players who loved the first game will find a familiar home and new players will be dreadfully delighted by our mixture of cozy fishing, emotional story telling, and institutional negligence.

In case you've been like "wow justin sure is posting about Spirit Crossing a lot"- it's because the spinout from Netflix means we are indie once more, and not only that- but are now joining the ranks of employee-owned indie studios! A very big step.

Something positive: Spry Fox is spinning out of Netflix. We are independent (once again!) and preparing to launch Spirit Crossing. We wrote up a little blog post musing about this wild adventure. Worth sharing the good news. spryfox.com/a-16-year-ol...

BTW, Spirit Crossing is coming to Steam. The goal is to create a major Cozy MMO with a huge population of folks making friends in a safe and welcoming space. I deeply believe we can make the world a better place. If this interests you, please wishlist! store.steampowered.com/app/2321960/...

Anytime I see a cute animal video I just want to make a game about it. Yesterday I went down a rabbit hole watching people tenderly assist their iguanas and geckos molting and I just want to give reptiles warm baths and peel the dead skin off their little spikes ok??
