Amazing work! The art was amazing and unsettling, I loved the unique designs of the monsters. Each had a personality that really came out. The writing for determining the count was well done, but some of the responses felt a little on the nose and formulaic after the first few days. It is also technically very well done with the monsterpedia and note taking, great job.
This game is criminally underseen, the art and the art style are both fantastic, the writing is on point, and the gameplay is solid. This is one of the top games of the Jam I've seen!
The game is sooooo good! I got the Best Ending! I found out the shapeshifter turns out to be Lily cuz her details have alot of discrepancy, and I manage to get SIenna as my lover! 10/10 artstyle 10/10 gameplay 10/10 music!
Soooo happy to hear that, and thanks for the kind words :O
Happy that Sienna is getting some love too!
good game
IS SOMEBODY GONNA MATCH MY FREAK??? I love this a lot, and the idea of dating monster baddies. This is so sick! The character designs are so fun and the art is incredible. I absolutely adored this. Great job!
Thank you so much, was also really fun working on the game and making the story / characters
So happy you enjoyed them!
Very cool art style and overall good fibes. On the third day it felt a bit same-ish but overall it felt okay because the game seemed fair. I spotted the Count and got away with Lily
Thanks for the game!
Yeah with more time, i would have liked to flesh out the story a bit more or make it less linear, but jam time pressure!
Still really happy how it turned out :)
Really nice artwork ! Ended single but got the count down
Job well done (￣ー￣)ゞ
The game and storytelling style is very cool! The world created in the game is filled with details and atmosphere that immediately captivate and immerse you in the story. The visual effects are especially impressive, creating a sense of presence and enhancing the emotional experience of the story.

Percival is mine and mine alone. I am OBSESSED with his design! I...might have to do some fanart. Anyway, great job you guys! I really love this!
Thanks a lot!
Percival is a very fine vampire, good'est of bois ;)
Percy is a GREAT vampire designnn
The story was intriguing. Nice to see you worked on more than software.
Got a perfect victory! Really nice game. The art is fantastic and the audio was quite good also. The whole thing felt very polished as well. Great work!
Thank you, the artists were amazing during the jam and are now on a well deserved break ;P
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved everything about this dating sim! Super creative way to take on the "countdown" theme, and it was woven into the narrative nicely. Great art and character personalities, and cool music and SFX too!
Thank you so much for the kind words!!
