Ty! Yes, I'm really happy for that. <3

It's so frustrating - it's Steam Next Fest, but I'm too sick to enjoy it and check out games & demos. :\ Y'all better doing it on my behalf, yo.

🕵️‍♀️🚂

Totally not AWOL this weekend because I was kidnapped by a hottie spy or two. 😳🫣

This is such a throwback. One day I'll find my hat again. I promise it wasn't because it shrunk in the wash. >.<

In honour of World Mental Health Day, we played a cosy little game that was a lovely way to end off the evening and begin the weekend. Totally worth the current coffee price. 🫶 to everyone!

Finishing #PreOdyssey yesterday was such a wholesome treat, my heart still feels warm from the experience. I love how Penelope's ducks were such staunch and dedicated shippers of the two, nnngh. Even without a sale, this little VN has my solid recommendation. 🫶🫶

Your work ethic is on another level. xD I don't know how you also manage to market on top of all of this creation. 🫡

But it was a fun read, & even though some of them might be in the pipeworks for a while, there's so much to look forward to~

(Don't feel bad about spending time on self-indulgence!)

They ARE super cute, though. 🥰🥰 I'll read them as much as you make them because I love how they have so many forms. 🫰

Needed something a little light-hearted to cap off the week after yesterday's thrills. All for the sweet price of a cup of coffee~

It's hard to believe that #FallInLoveFestival is already drawing to a close.. there are still so many VNs I want to experience. It's been a blast falling in love with VNs all over again; I'm looking forward to finishing the ones we couldn't. Tysm to the devs who extended invitations for games! 🫶

I do that with some of my OCs, too, because I can't stand to see them apart after their original tragedy. So it was and is a blast to see Yuel and Tavi so many times, so that we can love them more. Tysm for all the different stories. ❤️

This was something I really enjoyed when I first came across To Have and to Hold and Unluckily in Love! That "wait, aren't these two the same??" moment stayed with me and I've been seeking that same feeling in other games with multiverses as well. 🫰

Made a buncha new fakemon sprites

*kabedons you* hey. you don't need to draw to make a visual novel. just join a game jam and get to it. you are stuck in the labyrinth of perceived genre conventions. go read slime feet and snowcorpse necromancy. just make a visual novel you need no skills for it only time. just do it. do it scared

I found a 999 reference in the game! That was strangely gratifying to come across.

The moment the lady said it, that cemented her as The One For Me in this game. <3
