Welcome to the first episode of series 52, everyone! This series, we welcome Kyle Decker to discuss his game, Under the Neighborhood, a game where you play out the curiously ordinary lives of characters in a world like you see in Hilda, Gravity Falls, The Owl House and other similar shows. This episode we learn about the game, create our world, and begin creating our amazingly mundane characters!Character Creation Cast Patreonhttps://patreon.com/charactercreationcastAnnouncements:
