Smol Ame in a Nutshell
Smol Ame is a simple to play but fun speedrun game that you can play with the arrow keys and WASD.

In the game, you try to reach the finish quickly by overcoming various obstacles. There are five different maps-levels in the game; Ame’s Office, Pekoland, To The Moon, Red Heart, and Pop on Rocks. Each level in the game has different difficulties. It was especially nice to switch between maps as if you were carving the game.

Smol Ame is a simple game where you can have fun. Soundtracks of the game added a different excitement to me.

In short, my score for Smol Ame is 4 out of 5.

These five channels are not made by Amelia, each one is made by independent artists, and are all owned by cover corporation, in a branch know as hololive. In hololive, there are also many sub branches, and Amelia is part of the hololive EN (english) subbranch. Think of it as voice actors acting behind the facade of a character, with the character made by someone else. All of these “talents” as they are called, were previously independent content creators, which got through auditions from hololive in order to fill the role. Many if not all of these “Vtubers” did not know of each other before their debut.
