Baby Steps, the game I've been working on for 6 years with @gabecuzzillo and @maxiboch, is out on PC and PS5! We've put a feature-length film's worth of stupid cutscenes in this thing, and I hope you like them. But if not, you can skip them.... OR CAN YOU???? RTs appreciated 🙏

No prepared statements here:
@burgess truly rocks, and it was a damn pleasure to work together. You could feel the brain-breaking (for me) levels of creativity behind his content.
Tremendous thanks for bringing such joy to our solvers on a daily basis.

The emoji mostly capture my feelings but also want to express my gratitude and awe of @burgess. Putting out illustrations which are ALSO puzzles EVERY day is so hard, and doing so with such a consistent level of quality for almost 5 years is superhuman. Truly amazing work 🫡🫡🫡

a side note on today’s final puzzle. if you’re new to vertex you may not know, but this is an homage to a puzzle from early 2020 by @NocaWu. it diverges in some ways to signify the progress and end of vertex, while also coming full circle.

@FrogPropGod @VertexArchive …the whale gets more detailed down towards the head too, alluding to the progress of vertex. as for the triangle count, i’ve submitted higher count puzzles, but they actually crashed the game and no one at nyt ever fixed that.
English
@FrogPropGod @VertexArchive it is sentimental. it’s an homage to a puzzle from early on that came to be the background image of vertex for a while. the tail section is exactly the same except for the triangles separating which is meant to evoke the dissolution of vertex…

It's been a crazy ride, Vertexers 🙏 Thank you to @burgess for the beautiful puzzles. Thanks to all of you for creating this cool little community. We learned so much along the way! May we see each other again one day 🔺️🔻

@pumpkiny thank you! it’s great to hear from a fellow boulderite!

Vertex has been my favorite smooth brain activity for years, and now the NYT is killing it. :( I even blogged about why it rules: wired.com/story/last-goo…

@burgess ah this sucks man, I’m sorry to hear this. Vertex was a really beautiful part of the NYT games portfolio. Hope all is well otherwise.

@megreenwell it meant a lot to see you write about vertex. thank you for the support.

@VertexArchive @NYTGames thank you for keeping the record and growing the community

Waking up to some sad news this morning, Vertexers. @NYTGames is discontinuing our beloved game and the last puzzle will be published at the end of the month. First, I'd like to thank @burgess for all his amazing works of art over the past four years

Alas, I'm no marine biologist! @burgess Is this a barracuda? A marlin?

@Chuckbait @DynastyGOAT @Wario64 it isn’t on itch, but it used to be. the catalog version is different.
