our studio has unlimited sick leave and menstrual (and menopause) leave. no one has to say why they need time off, but many people who menstruate have worked while in immense pain because they’re “not sick” and it’s a way to explicitly encourage folks to be off for these reasons!

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is on sale on Steam for 40% off! Stanley is so happy about this! Haha! store.steampowered.com/app/1703340/Th

As you trudge through the snowy woods, the frigid air biting at your skin and the howling wind drowning out all other sounds, you feel a sense of foreboding wash over you. The trees seem to loom menacingly, the sky above you a disquieting neon blue, and the ground beneath your feet feels unstable, as if it might give way at any moment.

Just when you think you can't take it any longer, a figure emerges from the swirling snow and runs towards you, a look of wild desperation on his face. At first, you think it's a coworker, but as he gets closer, you realize something is off. His eyes are wide and unblinking, his mouth twisted into a grotesque smile.

Before you can react, he pushes you to the ground and leans over you, his hot breath stinking of whiskey and stale tobacco. "THE STANLEY PARABLE ULTRA DELUXE IS 40% OFF!" he screams, his voice laced with madness. "ONLY ON STEAM UNTIL JANUARY 5TH!"

We’ve just pushed an update for The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe! Patch 1.07 is live on PC, PS4, PS5 and Xbox and coming soon on Nintendo Switch, Mac & Linux! This patch adds even more accessibility features along with bug fixes and a select few new features!

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe has been updated! Here we see 3 of Stanley's missing coworkers... or atleast that's what I think they look like. I've never seen them, because they've been missing for the whole time I've worked at the company.
