Final #screenshotsaturday before launch: this is the Goblin Liberation Army Headquarters, located inside an abandoned theatre. We love how background artist Bruno brought art director Rafa's initial sketches to life. Can't wait for you to explore on TUESDAY!

Sharing some Hamish-centric Lil' Guardsman concept art! May not win father of the year, but his heart is most certainly in the right place.

This is a localization appreciation post! A big Canadian 'sorry' to the AMAZING GameScribes who worked their butts off making our jokes work in German, Chinese and Spanish. These are just a handful of the hundreds of their questions we fielded to make the game funny 4 languages!

For the fourth day of the Wholesome Games Celebration, I want to shout out @brunoishiishi 's cozy-as-heck backgrounds in #LilGuardsman My favorite games are ones I can picture visiting and spending time in, and Bruno made this dream come true with his beautiful BG art!

We are frankly gobsmacked at this super-cut of @OwengeJuiceTV being on the EXACT same wavelength as the writing team. We love watching streamers and creators play Lil' Guardsman. When it 'clicks' like this it's such a great feeling!

Owen and Lil saying the (almost) same things in Lil' Guardsman...

Uhh enjoy!Owen's channel: @OwengeJuiceTV The clips are from Owen's streams on Twitch! Check it out!(also like if you want to /nf)
