So happy that my piece is out at the evergreen review (such an iconic name in the game). I'm very fond of this one, I have performed variations of it live, but I'm quite happy with this text incarnation

I wrote this piece about the fashion-soulslike Infinity Nikki before the events of the #girlcott - truly what a case study in having a great game making some bold narrative choices and then absolutely tanking it due to greed.

...I still like this piece I wrote for DAS VIDEOSPIEL about it, though!
