Happy New Year!
It was a great year for games, plenty of good releases and time well spent.
Hope 2026 comes with fewer problems, smoother launches, and more games worth playing.

On a personal note, I’m close to finishing my Master’s degree in game development.
Really happy to be moving toward contributing to the industry I’ve spent so much time enjoying.
If you feel like it, feel free to share your own wins or plans for the year.

Take care and enjoy the year ahead.

I'm sorry, I have to leave you now. I know our feelings run deep, and I truly regret this. I've thought about leaving before, but you always stopped me. Today, though, it's different. Even though we've known each other for years, I have to go now—because I'm hungry. I'll grab a bite and be right back.
