  • Got a new controller for the media center this week! 8BitDo is really good quality, reasonably priced, and universal as all hell. Loving it!

  • I got a kitchen aid for Christmas ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

  • I spent a lot of time today just organizing the features I envision for Siren, and next year is going going to see a lot of awesome enhancements. Can’t wait to share what’s coming!
