Only a few short months ago, the team here at @SmallLoanStudio was working towards piecing together the foundation of our identity. Unsure of our end goal, we pushed forward into the unknown to find a path through a difficult time in the gaming industry. And just a few short months later, here we are. Our team has grown. Our mission has changed. Friendly faces have come and gone. But our core values remain the same. We're here to grow and learn together. To make mistakes and support one another. To unite ourselves under one banner and make games because we love to do so.

We can't thank you enough for supporting us. We're incredibly blessed that each and every one of you decided to be here. Thank you. From the bottom of our hearts.

I'll be back to posting normal clips soon. With PS5 Pro around the corner, games coming out, and big announcements in the wings, we'll have much to discuss.

In the meantime, though, here's a letter from Dustin to the Sacred Symbols audience that he asked me to read on the show.
