You have no idea how excited I am cuz my whole lion dance team love this artist 💖
We're making a game about lion dance!

It's a story driven visual novel dating game, where you take the role of the leader of a once-thriving, now disbanded, lion dance troupe. DANCING HEARTS is from game designer and product manager Tessa Touchette and creative director Cai Tse.

be less afraid to create clumsy comics. awkward tangents. amateur lettering. weird sequentials and pacing. You Can Just Make it. you dont need to be trapped in a cycle of perfectionism and imposter syndrome when you could have a finished work instead. print that thing out and staple it!!!
