sometimes games are made with duct tape & paperclips accidentally, under poor production process.
but sometimes games are made with duct tape & paperclips that a dev REALLY LOVED and MADE THEMSELVES and it would be insensitive and morally wrong to replace it with store-bought metal rods
Omg this is so cool Zi!!! ๐

For the first time the title will launch on PC and PSP on the same day, and Football Manager will have a Microsoft jointly backed four-week TV campaign, including 20 spots in key football matches in the Premiership and Champions League. The title will even be promoted with Ginsters, seeing five million pasties branded with Football Manager."
There it is. The most British thing to ever happen in the history of video games. Football Manager-branded pasties.

Speak out against harassment campaigns. Ignoring them allows the people who are already safe and untouchable to remain so, while leaving at-risk folks to face hate and harassment head-on and alone.
I *very distinctly* remember anyone who makes any effort to support me in the face of harassment, because so few people do. It is largely dealt with silently and completely alone, with 0 support (and some times actually disdain!) from those who pretend to be champions.

I wrote this game in response to recent censorship efforts as a way to push back against the idea that sexual art is shameful or inferior.
And She Will Love You is a one-page solo RPG about societal shame and the eldritch love of an ancient goddess. Do be sure to read the list of content warnings.
