This week we played Heaven Will Be Mine, a visual novel about three female mech pilots tearing through space, battling, flirting, making out, and fighting for what they believe in. The game contains Poetic and dense writing about themes surrounding LGBTQ+, discrimination, space, and what it means to be human. This one was right up our alley! If you've never played it we do summarize it as best we can! Topics include: conquering challenging writing, representation styles, ending interpretations, personal connections, and much more!
