A stick is for life.
Stick to the Plan is a puzzle game about dogs, sticks, and big plans. The upcoming tile-based puzzler is coming to Steam on 12th September, with a Switch release date “yet to be determined”, says publisher and developer Dead Pixel Tales.
As you can no doubt guess, you play as a stick-loving dog named Roberto — and he really, really, likes sticks. He wants to find the best sticks ever, and you’ll need to help guide him through 60 different levels.

Nintendo has released its financial results for the first quarter of FY24, providing an updated view of sales figures for its key titles and hardware as of June 30th, 2023.
Something which should really come as no surprise, but is still somehow pretty astonishing, is that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is well and truly selling like hotcakes.
