What the heck is “flavor text” and why should you care?
Let’s discuss, then write some flavor text of our own for whatever crazy images you suggest!
During the last stream, the subscribers requested that we write some flavor text together together.
We’ve done this topic before, so if you missed it or don’t know what “flavor text” is, be sure to check it out here.
Here’s the images that chat voted for us to create flavor text for, along with a few highlights for each:
#1. Skeletons and Fire
