I meant to do this and forgot. This is my reminder!

Hi @thechosengiraffe.itch.io! I’m your secret santa for #VNSS2025. Hermes from the upcoming Now Boarding series getting ready to go for a swim. I love the characters you create and I’m excited for everyone to meet them!

Thank you @crescence-studio.itch.io for putting this #vnsecretsanta together!

I would consider having a lot of cash to be an argument *against* that person being the candidate.

Happy #WIPWednesday! Today I wanted to show a small bit from one of the backgrounds @applesplosion.bsky.social is working on for the full game~

This beautiful lass is very comfortable just resting at home, do you happen to know who her owner is?

I disagree with the assertion you are not good at writing endings.
