everyone please play butterfly soup by @me-patra i promise u won’t regret it it’s abt gay asian girls who are baseball players and they’re in love and it’s so cute and wonderful and FREE!!! (but if you can donate bc she 10000% deserves it)
also to go into more detail but hopefully not get too spoilery (and i’m not done yet so i haven’t expanded on some things bc i’m not sure how they’ll go)
diya, min-seo, akarsha, and noelle are the four main characters and they’re all women of color
there are more women of color on the baseball team, including the captain who is a black woman, and a hijabi woman
diya is socially awkward (realistically!) w/ social anxiety and i relate So MUCH to her and also she’s partially deaf (deaf in one ear). one time she literally played dead to avoid a conversation how Me. (also she loves dogs!!!)
min-seo is so endearingly Out There and she loves death and destruction but is just so soft and caring wrt diya it’s so Cute wow
you have the opportunity to name their baseball team death bagels i mean come on!!!! incredible
akarsha loves pulling random stunts and pranks and a lot of social media meme references are from her it’s so great she’s great
noelle is chinese and she’s stereotypically rly smart and well-read, but she’s more than that too and it’s so great i love her too aaaahhh
akarsha says things just to make noelle mad and see her reactions and it’s GOLDEN noelle’s mad face is so cute
you get to play as all of them throughout the game and it flashes back to their elementary school years as u kind of see diya and min-seo (the main couple) meet each other and become friends and develop feelings for each other
the whole game starts with a dismantling of the ‘damsel in distress saved by the male hero’ story when min-seo proclaims herself the hero of the story bc diya is playing the princess and everyone is like “uh wait can u even do that” and min-seo is like bITCH I JUST DID EVIL DRAGON TIME TO DIE it’s wonderful
look at diya i llove my precious bean:
