Ruenacle has been a wild trip from beginning to end. It feels like a love letter to indie dark romance visual novels and modern visual novel fandom culture.
While I do have a biased view on the game as a contributor to the project, it is a solid game on its own.
While it does have pacing issues as its main purpose is to be a community project for the game jam, it exceeds at that aspect in contrast to its appeal as a standalone work of art.
I was vividly entertained through the authors understanding of the appeal of Monster Girl and Yandere Boyfriend tropes, and I was pleasantly surprised by her understanding of how the "good endings" don't necessarily appeal to moral understandings of the trope.
Overall, it was an entertaining experience and I do wish to see what else to see the creators of this game create as a follow up to this fanmade experience.
