yeahhhh our game is in the Tribeca Games showcase and all, but FIRST @heartmachine.bsky.social is also in the Tribeca x NYFest soccer tournament tomorrow!! Repped by Luqman + Ryan from @gumbonyc.bsky.social to whom I'm eternally grateful (because me playing soccer would be mortifying for everyone).
