great work! always down for a little bug poetry :)
Thanks for writing this!
PS - you might enjoy this online literary journal featuring trans writers writing about ecology, nature, and place:
also: this has such an arcade feel to it, which I never thought was possible (or even thought to think about!) before. Like, I know there is the conversation about shorter rpgmaker games (1-2 hours to beat), but Rpgmaker games you take several shots at over the course of 5-10 minutes? Thats a whole other level! Very cool :)
I have played this thrice now (twice as part of the antholoy and once here), and it is such a wonderful experience! My two favorite parts are the names of the swords, and how traveling through mountains *feels* like traveling through mountains within the framework of the mechanics of this game. Your worldbuilding and map making is so superb. Always love your entries into the game universe!
Once I finish playing all the anthology games I am going to leave a comment there, but I really wanted to touch on this. Your work is incredible and I am always in admiration of it! <3
