Merry Christmas, all! 🌲💕

I thought I'd kinda worn out the OG crew sweater pics and couldn't do a full-cast WtDSR one without spoilers, but I thought these four together would be really cute.

Thank you everyone for being with me this year 💕

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
