I really like the story and characters so far, I can't wait to read more. The song your friend wrote is beautiful and incredibly moody. I know the character sprites are just placeholders for now, but I do with they were slightly less stiff in posture, so I hope to get to see the characters updated with your art!
Hey, thanks so much for the feedback! I’m continuing to work on the project so I can update the sprites and finish the story — hopefully, I’ll be able to release an update later this year. Thanks again for playing it 🥰
I'm going to be honest, I'm not a massive fan of the 3D model look for VNs so I wasn't really sure whether this would be my thing, but it's got a really great start! The conflict between the two characters feels believable, and you did a great job at characterising Becky as the sort of person who would be willing to risk going to a supposedly-haunted house for the sake of research. I also really like that the town isn't all doom and gloom, and that it's mentioned that many of the incidents that occurred there are hyped up by the locals.
Unfortunately I couldn't get further than that, because the game crashed! I've attached the error below; if you end up having the time to fix it please let me know because I'd love to keep going!
Hey, thanks a lot for the feedback, it really means a lot to me!
I spent quite some time in the writing, so I’m glad you found the characters believable 🙏🏼
About the art, it was all supposed to be placeholders while I finished the 2D sprites, but I ran out of time. I’m still working on them and I plan to update it around November.
About the story, it was as far as I finished for the jam 😅
But I already have the whole story (five chapters) planned, and a few of the chapters already written, so I plan on implementing a least chapters two and three by the end of the year 😁😁
I’ll make sure to let you know when I do.
Agan, thanks a lot for playing, and thanks a lot for the feedback!!!
Loved the music in this, great job! :D <3
Thanks a lot!!
Dammit, Becky!
An interesting start. Love the dynamic between the two. Looking forward to more.
Thanks a lot! I'm already back to working on it, so hopefully I'll get it updated soon :3
