Thirsty Suitors is one of my favorite story-driven games in recent memory. Heartfelt, funny, and a great soundtrack!
Highly recommend it!
And play Dosa Divas, the latest game from @outerloopgames.bsky.social too!
We're happy to have Thirsty Suitors as part of We Will Always Be Here Pride Month Bundle along with some other great titles supporting the Trevor Project.

Dosa Divas finale just went live on my channel!
I loved this. A well-made RPG with satisfying combat, excellent writing and wonderful characters. Focuses on the importance of food, culture and family. It hit me emotionally in ways I wasn't expecting. HIGHLY recommend.

Corporatism abound.
Stephen truly saw my pitch/vision.
If you subscribe to Game File due to this piece—I will get paid more moneys, so please subscribe; so I can get paid even more moneys to allow this type of work at Game File!
Wrapped up Dosa Divas yesterday from @outerloopgames.bsky.social. I want more 10 hr RPGs with unique mechanics, flawed characters, and real human themes.

A review of Dosa Divas, a role-playing game about what it means to do good, from a studio trying to do things right. Says its director: “For us, a sort of success [is whether we can] make another.”

I held myself together through the final battle and dialog of Dosa Divas, (got the save to work, thank you!), and then one line of text right at the end just before the credits roll, just *WRECKED* me.
That's 2 for 2, @outerloopgames.bsky.social
