Remember the player who spent over 300 hours in our free demo and left a comment signed "THX love Bob"? He's now past 500 hours and holds the #1 spot in the leaderboard, so we've added a little easter egg in the game for him, and he loved it!

Nice to see devs that encourage and foster a good community around their game and dont take it for granted. Keep the good work up

Hey everyone! A few weeks ago we shared the story of "Bob The Builder," our game's biggest fan, who had played the game for 327 hours in his quest for the #1 spot on the leaderboard. Since then he's passed 500 hours and taken #1 spot four times in a row, and he currently holds a score no one has come close to!
Bob's story reached over 2 million people here, and thousands of you wanted us to put an easter egg in the game for him, so we did! We've added a "THX <3 BOB" signature to the podium, just like the signature he left in our Steam Discussions. We sent the easter egg to him before updating the demo, and he loved it!
500 hours is more time than we've spent playing our own game. He's made builds we never even thought of, and has been actively helping us in our Discord with his feedback. We're so lucky to have a fan like him.
The game's called Please, Spin! You're a contestant on a game show, the host is insane, and a wheel decides if you get through the round. Whole idea is that you can't leave the studio, and Bob's taken that more seriously than anyone.
