I was playing one of my “therapy games;” a game that, like, I use for therapy, ya know? I saw a line I hadn’t seen:

“Thank you for showing these monsters how to love.”

Context aside, it got me thinking, self-reflecting.

I’ve been trying to “set aside” our arguments, trying to show my brother, my mom I’m still me.

I’m trying to love them, despite how I feel they have slighted me. I’m trying to show them how to love.

Before you write them off completely, try to show the monsters in your life how to love (with healthy boundaries, of course). The results may surprise you.

      The Void Rains Upon Her Heart

      It’s a boss battler/ shoot-em-up/ roguelite/ bullet hell game.

      It’s themes center very heavily on depression, anxiety and self-harm, so content advisory if you’re sensitive to that.

      I kinda identity with the first character a bit, but maybe I’m projecting?

      A lot of the lore is told through multiple playthrough, and unlocking items and reading lore on them Dark Souls style, but much easier to follow. It’s been in early access for years, but I think that’s mostly just writing and art. There’s TONS of content to keep ya going for a while. I got it as part of Yogscasts Jingle Jam bundle a few years back, so idk what the price is on it.
