Push the roles further apart than feels comfortable. # Cautions carried from each entry # - Synthwave: Sun and grid alone are overfamiliar. Add story elements of your own. # - Vaporwave: Don't reduce Japanese to meaningless decoration. Bring criticism or personal memory. # Design specs: https://indexstyle.org/styles/synthwave/design.md · https://indexstyle.org/styles/vaporwave/design.md
