Coming back alive on bsky to announce that Coalesce has been shadowbanned on itch, reasons unknown

So I've made the game and its artbook free for a couple of days on VGen only! Go get it before I make it paid again eventually!

"visual novels are dying out" and yet the english indie scene is starting to thrive. indie VNs are getting 1k+ reviews on steam, indie otome are raising $20k+ on kickstarter, and you're not seeing any of that bc you're only looking at gacha

"it's good... for an rpg maker game" "the story is actually interesting... unlike other visual novels" please throw away your fear of liking something. it's okay to like a medium unironically. it will make you happier as a person when you stop belittling the things you like 💜
