At the close of #gamescom2023 we invited a few industry friends for a hands-on demo of our latest game, an original FPS codenamed Project Loro. We aren't quite ready to share details, but we can confirm it is in development, and have compiled some initial reactions.

Of all the things I got hands on with @gamescom this week, "Project Loro" from @CertainAffinity was without a doubt the coolest. I can't say much about this new FPS...but I came away SUPER impressed. What really blew my mind though? It was put together in just 7 months 🤯 WOW!

Day 1 of showing our playable demo behind closed doors at Gamescom went fantastic! I reserved time eod Friday so we can show it to a few friends and supporters. If you're in Cologne and willing to sign an NDA, drop me a note. We have limited capacity, but will try to find space.
