Thank you to Wes, and Zine Club overall, for believing in this weird scrappy little game!
Ritual Deck combines the intensity of anime like Yu-Gi-Oh and the vibes of Atlus games with a foundation of the Carved from Brindlewood in a unique and, frankly, badass way!

Thanks to @drlemons.itch.io for trusting us to release RD through Zine Club. Check it out:

This feature can be disabled by going to Invoicing -> Feedback and toggling 'Collect feedback' off there (on a business account, at least)
Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Diving into tales of holiness is like wandering through a sacred forest, where every word whispers truth. Both stories invite reflection, leaving me pondering the depths of sacrifice and grace. A beautiful exploration! #BookSky #books
The 2nd Summer Of Short Stories is here! Today, we’re looking at two tales about holiness & God, by Nocturnaliss and @1000dumplings.bsky.social ! One is about a mortal sacrifice, the other about Christ Himself.
