Obligatory 'Meet the Boys' post!

#UnhingedVN
Angel - Over it. Over you. But not over you. Also, stuck with you forever. God help us all if the beer runs out. Valdas - Feral next door neighbor. Occasionally tamable. Probably not capable of full domestication. Hope you keep a lot of ramen on hand. Kaiden - Tall, dark, handsome, and problematic. Perpetual wild child who has seen some shit. Moves fast, lives fast, loves a fight. Not picky on who it's with. Zyr - A totally normal human. Not unusual at all. Also your boss. Your very pretty boss.

Zyr is so over this stupid group photo.

Four men, visual novel characters. Kai in black and red motorcycle gear with blue-black hair, Zyr, a blond businessman, Val in plaid with a purple braid, and Angel the angel. They pose together, begrudgingly.

I've somehow never shared Kai's playlist, which is criminal because it's a delight.

Fun fact: Rhythm of the Night is his favorite song.

From this, pretty sure I know who he gets to make the tapestries. In case that's still an unknown that would be useful to know, feel free to reach out.

I adore how all of the boys came out!

Same, Angel, same.

I dunno what you are talking about, all of these characters are very reasonable and sane and stable and not remotely problematic at all 😌

"...shouldn't you be working?"

Zyr - A pale man with bright green eyes and a blond ponytail, wearing a light beige suit, one hand held up. Background is a trippy colored hallway.

when you accidentally book the room of a motel with a jacuzzi and too many mirrors but you live it up by coming back from riding a bunch of rollercoasters and eating your leftover shawarma in the jacuzzi 😎

alternate title for this game:
Ven Curses Like A Sailor™

Re-reading all the dialogue and narration makes that abundantly clear, whoopsie

frothing at the mouth in regards to Zyr's finished sprite art

Noted! 😂 I will take care in any future use of it, I suppose not that I say it much anyway!

Wait, have I been misinterpreting this one? I thought it referred to putting a horse away sweaty and without being properly cared for after a hard ride, not something more inappropriate 😅

Angel's sprite is basically done and let me tell you, he is so over your shit

Scariest Horror Game Idea:
Someone you care about tells you 'we need to talk later" and then you have to survive for the next 20 hours before having that mystery conversation

Let's be real, everyone is too scared to make this one, it crosses the horror line into Just Too Spooky

"Is it... Oh never mind"
"What"
"I was trying to remember if it was 'Donald Duck' or 'Donald Chicken'"
"What?!"
"Well... before I spoke in my mind, it was 'Donald Bird Ceature' you see"
"WHAT!?!?"
