The improvement from the first demo is quite evident. The pacing was far better, the scenes switched up smoothly and the mystery was engaging. I got no clue what the mystery will be about and who is the main culprit, either way it is making me look forward for the full game when it comes out. My fav LI is Aissata, she was the one I picked first and even by the end of the demo I was still left with a lot of questions about her, so I'm intrigued and hooked lmao
Aissata's quite sweet, adorable and I can relate with her social anxiety, the wish and desire to do the social things that others feel comfortable doing it, even tho she tends to get overwhelmed by them. She was at times quite warm and other times colder, but I think it comes back to that being vulnerable doesn't come easy for her. Gonna stop my rambling here! The other LI were also adorable and neat! The artstyle is amazing, I loved the white overline around the sprites! The cgs were beautiful! The music choices were fitting and the whispers gave me goosebumps lol! Excited for when the full game will come out and solve the mystery with our future maybe girlfriend lol
I LOVE THE GAME SO MUCH!!!
This game is so cute! This stranger has my whole heart and soul :DDD
i want more of my mysterious stranger omg
Awww I cant get the 7th achivement even though I did everything on the walkthru :C
The one you’re missing is sapphic game achievement. I checked and there is no bug so you may have missed an option / didn’t finished the sequence needed for it.
Thank youuu!!! :D
I chose the other option for funsies and it kicked me out and it didnt count it XD after saying "I understand", I got it :3
I don´t have the courage to try for a bad ending 10/10 can´t wait for what´s to come
AAAAAAA I CANT WAIT FOR MORE I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH!!!!!!
the voice acting is crazy, gay/10, i'm wet
Just downloaded :3 will come back once I'm done playing, hehe ! <3 Congrats on the update!!
Expect another comment...I am coming back for this now that idea finished...heh ...
this is so cute I can't wait for the finished product!!
is..is it finished?
hold you hand when i’m gonna say this no… but there is a full update coming soon-
me quede flechado por la persona desconocida aunque solo jugaba este juego por aburrimiento
your art style is so pretty!!! omg
Thank you it’s very sweet ! Funny enough that demo is quite old so beware the art will change at some point :}
i loved this demo ! Hope to see the full game, the misterious
atmosphere is so cool and the characters too (i'm in love with Rowann <3)
Ehehe a Rowan lover ehehehehehehe (update is coming soon I promise )
Hello, this is a review. I am in love with this game, and it should have more reviews.
I can't find the emojis..
i loved the demo sm!!! hopefully the full game will be finished someday (╥ ω ╥)
Thank you for the nice comment ! Just like it took me 4 months to answer this comment- I promise it may take time but it will be finished someday !!
Enjoyed the demo and am looking forward to experiencing the rest! I read through the scenes for all three of the LIs, and they're all fun and have me curious. :D The character art looks nice too!
I am wondering; which of the characters are non-binary?
glad you enjoyed the current demo ! To answer Aissata and the stranger are the two non binary love interest :}
Thank you!!
Also, like the way you had the player provide input on how they want to be referred to! It's more realistic and natural than how most games go about it, and as such, it provides an example of how that can work IRL too, which is so important. We can't just magically know -- we must ask!
I'll write down my thoughts as I play!
First of all, a very cute main menu, looks so stylish ^^ Overall, I love the visual design. And the fact I got to type in my name :D (Got to custom pronouns too now, that's so considerate ^^)
I got so invested in the story I forgot to write here xD I love that there is a mystery, and all LIs are so interesting! +_+ Erinna is cute too!^^ And I think the text is very well written :)
I didn't mind small bits in french, thankfully I had french in school lol. But yeah obv it'll need to be fixed for a full English release <3 (Though it kinda made atmosphere of the game more interesting to me...:D)
Lastly, I wasn't quick enough to read the notice at the end of the demo! It disappeared by itself :')
Overall the game seems super cool, I loved it and will definitely try it out again after some updates/full release! <3
ROWAN MY BELOVED
I love her
The writing is really nice
The art is beautiful
The mystery? Perfection
10/10 I hope you'll finish the whole game one day ^^
Congrats on finishing the demo! Loved the love interests, especially Rowan was too cute for me!! Aissata gave the most of the creeps compared to the other LI, especially in the final dialogue with her. I love that it has a mystery "case" going while you are flirting with lovely peeps hehe! Interested and excited to see more, the art is awesome btw!! It was immersive with the backgrounds.
HIIII !!! Thanks you for playing my game demo and leaving a sweet comment :D
I played the game and tried to get the three 'routes', and I'm very excited to see what's in store in the future!!! Of course I already have some theories, mostly regarding vampires and Aissata, and obviously the identity of our unnamed stranger.
This was really cute!!! I love the art and the music, and it felt very comfy while still having an underlying mystery to chew on. Also I appreciate the option to pick a name and pronouns.
I very much enjoyed my time with this and I'll be looking forward to future updates!
Very happy you enjoyed !!!! Also vampires ?! Theories ?! ;) ehe nice
Thanks you for playing the dem
So excited the demos out!!
Congrats on getting the demo out!! It looks awesome!
Thanks you !!!! :
