Am I started RE9 at 3AM? Yes 😭 Am I regretting all my life choices? YES!! 😭
Taking this as a sign from the world that I needed this time of forced hibernation to finally come back stronger in the spring and be around more.

Thank you for reading it ☺️ And best of luck to you too!
Header is “what I’m worried about” Body is “A few years ago I released a dinky little game called Witch Forest. Was it good? No (Kodey the editor here; she is incorrect, it was great, and I’m willing to die on this hill). I think the only people who liked it (other than myself) were Kodey (~~who’s biased, his opinion doesn’t count~~ my opinion counts threefold actually) and my 8 year old cousin (~~who was too young to know any better~~ who has great taste)
I just want to highlight this instance of @kodeyo.bsky.social being a goof 😭
