My last fun Honest Indies thing of the week.
I got to chat with @monsoongames.bsky.social over social & email and came away with a wonderful blend of insightful and silly responses.
Now I’m looking forward to both games that they’re working on even more and craving something caffeinated.

Last night I streamed the demo for Merry Crisis by Monsoon Games and had a wonderful time. I don’t play many games that take place around the holidays and even fewer dating sims that happen around this time.
I had a few big laughs, adored dogs, and hit with a cliffhanger

I really enjoyed the demo for Merry Crisis! The descriptiveness of the writing and the music set the mood of the story saying so much about the interactions, far beyond what I expected. You could feel the moment. The art is beautifully distinctive and fits the characters. It will be an amazing game.
