Hello all, and welcome to issue #0.5 of IOGRAM, the IORAMA newsletter!
Over the coming months, we’ll be talking about what we’ve been up to over the past many months, which is a lot. We’ve got several new playful apps and creative experiences of all kinds currently cooking, which we can’t wait to show you!
Consider this just a small housekeeping announcement before everything begins properly rolling out, starting with other ways to keep in touch. With social media radically splintering over the past few years, we’re doing our best to stake our claim where we can, in hopes that you’ll come find us there and let us know what you’ve been creating lately, as well!
You can find us:
Here on Bluesky, where you can use the hashtag #madewithlooom to show us what you’ve been making! (We’re just getting started with Bluesky, so you’d be among the first!)
Here on Instagram, where you can use the same #madewithlooom hashtag to post your animations! (There’s so much good stuff there already!)
Here on our own Discord, where we’ve got channels all set up and ready to go, to show us what you’ve been making with our apps like Looom and more!
And, last but not least, our soon-to-be refreshed website, where you can find details about all of our apps:
Looom: our Apple Design Award-winning next-gen flip book app
Grand Tour Legends: our bicycle-cranking game for the Playdate handheld gaming device
Chantlings: our singalong app for mobile devices, where you can converse with magical creatures in rhythms and rhymes
The Jerks: our *~free~*, augmented-reality “mocrap” playground for your mobile device
In the coming months, we’ll start divulging all of our deep, dark secrets, as we prepare to finally show our hand. We’ll also start showing off the things you’ve been making with our apps, so please do tag us and use those hashtags above when you post your work — we actually are watching, and love seeing it all!
Please stay tuned for our next announcement, due very soon, and we look forward to hearing from you in the meantime!
Everything sounds so exciting! I cannot wait to see what you guys have planned
