The amazing team at Makeship have given Abraham another chance at becoming a reality! We wanted plushie Abraham's dreams of world domination to come true two years ago but sadly, we just didn't make it. Which is why we need your help to make sure that this time, he can succeed and haunt you beyond the reaches of Lavernock.

Make a pledge on the plush petition and if we hit 200 unique pledges, Abraham will be one stomp closer to being on your shelf.

We also want to make our players aware that Unity is affected by certain Intel instability issues that are affecting Intel 13th & 14th Gen Processors which in certain instances are causing crashes in game. Our team advise if you are experiencing frequent crashes with those processors that in some cases, turning off "XMP" in your BIOS will help but it is not a guaranteed fix.
