Art is crazy and absolutely PEAK

A dark, sad tale, well written and beautifully illustrated. And in the end, perhaps, they both got what was deserved. Well Done

Really beautiful artwork! This did not feel like a jam game, but a properly polished, fully-fledged game--and not only because of the polished feeling, but also due in no small part to the quality of writing.

I don't normally play a lot of visual novels, and don't have much experience with this genre, but this was really captivating. I must admit that I booted the game up while grabbing a bite, but ended up with an almost full plate when the game was done.

Because I just jumped in without reading much of the description, I initially expected a story like The Tell-Tale Heart. I have seen your mention of the The Fall of the House of Usher in the artistic inspirations section only after finishing the game, but the Gothic influence is unmistakable--which I really enjoy. 

I decided to stick by Lord Ruysch, because it felt like a more fitting end to the story, one that complements the regrettable life they both have had.    

Thanks a lot for the game, really nice work!

Old main Yaoi? Hell yeah!

Two old men in a manor by the sea is a strangely underutilized setting. The narrative was fascinating and the art was beautiful. It isn't easy to pull off a limited color palette. My one complaint is that there wasn't much horror. They eat the mermen (if I understood correctly), but it didnt have much impact on me. Still, one of the better submission I've played so far.

I really loved playing this game!

The art direction is beautiful, with a limited yet striking colour palette. Very quiet, melancholic feel, perfectly enchanced by the sound design.

The story is very well written, with beautiful prose and subtlety when needed. There are a few typos here and there but that is to be expected from a jam game and nothing gets in the way of understanding the story. I really liked how the mermen were depicted, as these supernatural beings tied to the weather and crying out in the protagonist's mind. Had that calming yet eerie vibe to them.

I went with the sea ending because screw our lord, we deserve better /j

Lovely game, you did a great job!
