  • BONUS: An Interview with Bobby Schroeder
    It's our first ever piece of bonus content for the show! This is an interview which lasts just about 80 minutes with Bobby Schroeder (they/she pronouns), also known as Ponett, the developer behind Super Lesbian Animal RPG. SLARPG had a first draft in a fan game for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, and has since blossomed out into a fully original project. Jessica got to sit down with Bobby and talk about that process, about writing the game, writing LGBT characters, and more, including questions from fans of the game!
