We introduce ourselves and give some info about the game system and some content warnings. Not a necessary listen at all! If you wanna just get stuck in with the first episode we have done our best to make it something that's easy to listen to and keep track of on it's own. This episode 0 is purely for people who wanna know a little more about the mechanics themselves and get a little bit more of a warning for some aspects of the general themes of the game. We hope you enjoy one way or another!    My Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/eternal_savvy/ VOD Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@Staying_Savvy Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Eternal_Savvy   Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/eternal_savvy Logo by BHBehemoth Music by Angra: "Heart of Hope Theme" https://twitter.com/ANGRA_MAlNYU https://bsky.app/profile/angramalnyu.bsky.social Sound Effects by FilmCow https://filmcow.itch.io/ Additional Sound Effects Courtesy of Freesound
