I just want to say thank you again for including me in such a special experience!!!!
Well done! Thanks for tackling this, and thanks for trusting me with a blurb.
Really great to see all this come together, along with more under-the-counter type games nabbing a spot as well. I'd also like to thank you for inquiring me about writing a blurb for an entry I hold dearly, it was a wonderful feeling!
What a special list, I'm extremely glad I could've been a part of it <3
Thanks for organizing everything, good stuff.
Yall did a great job on your writings!! what a fantastic list
rawness incarnate.
Excellent work here!
Hell yes, what a great project.
I mentioned it in the Discord already but I would like to extend my thanks for putting this together. It was a wonderful community effort and I'm glad to have been able to contribute something, no matter how small, to the finished product and to have been allowed to have my writing sit shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the best on the site. Thank you once again!
It's here! Awesome list. Thanks for putting this together and giving me the chance to contribute.
This is so amazing: thank you for including me, and thank you everyone that wrote for this! Seriously, this makes me so happy...
Incredibly based guys 😎
really cool to see everything so well put together!! i'm glad to be part of the blurbs with so many people and friends i admire a lot! thank you and congrats!!!
Incredibly cool.
Having read this list through properly now, I must admit that I feel hopelessly inadequate next to some of these absolutely stunning contributions. Fantastic work, everyone - I'm proud to have stood alongside you!
nice, very well done
doom, katamari and super metroid in the top 10. not bad
So so endlessly bummed that I missed this entirely while it while it was happening
I'm adding yet another thank you to the evergrowing pile of thank yous for putting together something like this, it's something you didn't need to do, but you did. So my hat's off to you.
Thank you for giving me a shot. Glad I was able to contribute and must have been a huge undertaking. Amazing end result.
great work here man, seriously. thanks for letting me take a couple of chances at bat
So happy to have been a part of this killer project. Everyone's prompts were stellar !
awesome work
also i had no idea when i wrote the DOOM piece that it was art #1 on the poll... that carmack quote feels well-placed now lol
Delighted to see this come together. (I have plenty of personal favourites on the list that don't have blurbs, if you're looking for someone to write them)
incredible work from everyone involved, some really great stuff here, but most of all, what a wonderful thing to pull together and create Pangburn!! You should feel immensely proud of what you've put together here. Thank you for letting me be a part of it!
Great job everyone and a huge thank you Pangburn for putting this together!
truly something special. thanks for putting this together, glad i could be included. everyone involved did an amazing job!
