Watercolor Bouquet

Posted on April 29, 2021

I put aRead More→

Here it shows one of the characters, Rose, introducing the Sheriff, a.k.a. the player, and welcoming them (you) to the town. That isRead More→

I hope they aren’t too distracting, but it was actually pretty helpful to ease a little bit of my stressRead More→
