obsessed with the concept of this christian gaming journalism site where each review is accompanied by a morality score based on how well the game aligns with christian principles. the lowest i could find was baldurs gate 3 which has a morality score of 11% lol

the game awards never feature anything close to visual novels so I'm going to recommend 20 indie visual novels

"visual novels are dying out" and yet the english indie scene is starting to thrive. indie VNs are getting 1k+ reviews on steam, indie otome are raising $20k+ on kickstarter, and you're not seeing any of that bc you're only looking at gacha

"it's good... for an rpg maker game" "the story is actually interesting... unlike other visual novels" please throw away your fear of liking something. it's okay to like a medium unironically. it will make you happier as a person when you stop belittling the things you like 💜

thought i could finally sit down to record a voiceover today but forgot ppl in my neighborhood love fireworks 😭😭

finally on break so i should be more active around here!

sometimes you just need to catgirlify your oc

i swear i feel the most inspired whenever i dont have time to work on my projects 😭 but just 1 more week until im finally free...

if you want extra ways to support indie developers, and easy way to do so is leaving reviews on Steam & itchio! these reviews / ratings help games out in the algorithms and show other players that they're worth playing.
