Dragon Quest Illustrations: 30th Anniversary Edition, which is hardcover by the way, features over 500 illustrations from Dragon Quest to Dragon Quest Heroes II. It also comes with a fold-out poster of the series timeline. Over 200 pages are included inside.
13AM Games released Runbow, its very first game, back in 2015. The studio is now gearing up to show fans what it has in store as its next project.

Today is Gunman Clives 6th birthday. Maybe I should finish that Switch version people keep asking about some time. I've had a near complete port running on the hardware since before the systems launch
