This week we begin our playthrough of the experimental, innovative masterpiece Live A Live! We’ll be playing the remake, though Trish is also playing the Super Famicom version so we can have context on the differences. Our first episode will cover the Present Day and Twilight of Edo Japan chapters.

Look, I’ve been at this a long time. I’m good at what I do. I was unemployed for 8 months in 2023 and 5 months so far after this layoff. I need the job to be remote because I’m trans and we have state-level protection here. If you can get me a referral somewhere it’ll change my life. Thanks.
Hello! I need a job badly! I am a longtime game writer and narrative designer. I wrote the mobile smash hit Lily’s Garden, board/card games, casual mobile, PC/console sims…I’m a character- and dialogue-focused writer who loves jokes and feelings. If you have a remote opportunity please get in touch
