When Club Penguin was shut down, it was making $30m in revenue a year with a team of 15 and we were told it was “losing” money because of all the corp overhead attributed to it. The reality is the people who wanted to shut it down just threw cost on its P&L until they could make

- SO PUMPED!! Announcing The Mystery Society, our new web3 game!! Follow us on @InviteToMysteryMYSTERIES REVEALED!! Behold, our game trailer! All real, in-game footage! Coming soon to web3!!
00:00 - Replying to @deantakGamers don’t want their games to feel like they’re designed by corporate HR or used to peddle some journeyman’s political agenda. No one likes to have their party crashed by a lecturing hall monitors. I don’t think it’s about actual diversity so much as how woke tropes make
- Oh dude this is so cool! I would have LOVED to have done this back in the day!A TURMA DO MISTÉRIO ESTÁ AQUI! 🐾 Conheçam os itens do Scooby Doo disponíveis no nosso catálogo de outubro! Tenho certeza que a Daphne adorou os looks da turma 👀 Já garantiu os itens? Não?! Então corra para garantir porque já já eles saem do catálogo! ✨
- I can’t believe we never put this out. We were charged SO MUCH for this. Well over $1m. We should have just finished it but I don’t think we could figure out how to make money on it because paid games had died in the App Store.The unreleased Card-Jitsu mobile app has been found! This was a port of the Flash game, from October 2011. Completing levels would've granted you pieces of the Shadow Ninja suit. Noteworthy assets & animations are featured in the thread below:

00:00 - Omg I love the FNAF takeover of the Pizza Shop!! I had the rights for FNAF to do console and mobile games but had to give them back when I left Universal - what a miss on their part!Eles chegaram! ✨ A Freddy Fazbear's Pizza já está disponível no plaza do Club Penguin Dimensions! Aproveite para comer aquela pizza gostosa, só tome cuidado quando for na madrugada, ouvi dizer que os animatrônicos andam pela pizzaria… 👻
- Replying to @stalbsNo, we’ve tried to buy it multiple times and they won’t sell it.
- Replying to @BriannaWu“Nearly everything they do pushes me away on a cellular level.” This is how men feel about democrats. For a decade, you have called us sexist for everything, pushed the conspiracy theory that we are a “patriarchy” conspiring against women even as women are ascending to
