I am accepting just a few slots for #vtuber and lowpoly character commissions!

Had a great time with Dosa Divas @ekanaut.bsky.social ! Y'all put y'alls foot in the game fr. Food looked so delicious and the story was so well written, that we were discussing the game for over an hour. 😋🙌
We played Dosa Divas recently and enjoyed this short, food-focused, story-driven RPG. It's got a colorful art style, solidarity themes, and mechs! A "your cooking matters" type game that's possibly one of the most impactful stories in games this year. youtu.be/8BrBuWC4xvE 🧵
