Stack Rabbit

Stack Rabbit is a match 3 puzzle game, and while that’s nothing new, Disney has made it more challenging. The objective of the game is to gather vegetables, and rather than use the 2D perspective like other games, Stack Rabbit relies on a 3D engine, so it’s very different.

Stewart Villain: No Manners

Stewart Villain’s fervent rap style is bursting with risky shifts and sharp metaphors untamed as a wild animal.

No Manners is a 12-track project full of hard-hitting beats and reckless lyricism.
