Call of Boba
Boy, this game looks just hella cute! The art style hitting that pixelated aesthetic a lot of the cosy games do. Including music that fits the lo-fi chill vibes really ties everything together. Being able to not only make and serve drinks to customers; but forage and fight for the ingredients is a neat spin on the genre. It looks like it’ll be a great game to stick your wings into and dedicate hours to.
