Hi everyone,
Tyler here from the Deckpoint Studio team! I’m writing this week to give a nod to what’s ahead for Mark and the rest of the Luckless Seven.

In anywhere between a few days and two weeks, Jesse has a functional model for us to improve as we go.
Our design priorities are efficiency, story fit, and style fit.
