have you tried waiting on the start screen? you might see something!

it’s the apple Hazel’s holding. it’ll play a shine animation, go and click it, and it’ll automatically start playing the secret ending.
bonus for people who didn’t want to go through the effort of translating the binary, i spent 5-6 minutes transcribing the whole thing:
the text might be really garbled but its pretty easy to read it as
“THE SENSE OF CONNECTION WAS ONLY FABRICATED”
this was the first ending i got TT but i really liked the ending cg!!
i’m surprised no one’s commented on this game..? here’s a unnecessarily long review of it from two years later !!
i’ve been meaning to play this game for almost a year with my friend, and today i finally got to play it with them!
for me visuals and ui are primary when it comes to vns, and the game sold me the moment i heard the intro song,,, and i love the ui design sm !!! the story was super simple and it was fairly easy to get all the endings, but me and my friend really wanted to get to know Gears more :[
your visual design is genuinely so pleasing and cohesive! i’d love to see this kind of aesthetic used more often.. i’m definitely gonna look into your other games :))
olivia is soooo silly she’s the sillymaxxer5000 i will def be playing the other installments >:DD the story concept is rlly unique and the worldbuilding is so interestinggg
for web players struggling to get the random ending, try downloading the game !! i swear i was playing it over and over again for like 20 times before trying to use the pc version
i played this with another friend and only got one of the endings, so i came back to see the other ones and OUGHHH I’M SO ILL long comment incoming
Can I just say that the ending where you refuse Miss’ offer is SO HEARTBREAKING TO SEE. the tone of dialogue switchup was an amazing experimental idea and it made the corruption theme work so well,,, what do you mean not even an “i love you” will make ellie forgive miss. what do you mean miss was jealous of the way ellie was able to live so happily in the facade of the world. ellie what do you mean that no one should go through this except y
i honestly love that the topic of this game is so relevant. i’m probably reading too much into this but the fact that corruption is truly everywhere; in our laptops, clothes, almost everything that we enjoy now was made with the blood of others makes me almost empathize with miss’ ambition, even though the path she’s going on won’t solve anything in the end. it’s a fantasy i hope a lot of us have that the world will become better, even if it won’t.
i definitely see the vivinos inspiration,,, and as much as i want to buy the extra content i will hold myself back 😭 i also made fanart for the game on tumblr and twitter! spoilers for the bad end obv
changed my life. i never thought a yuri manga would be so essential to a paranormal investigation.
there were typos and bugs (beaford not following alicia in the last sequence of the good ending) but it's not that glaring of an issue! learning that beaford was half chinese improved my experience greatly as a chinese person, 10/10 i am genuinely so invested in the lore and the characters thank you Spicaze me and my friend will be rotating this game in our brain alongside Married in Red
Hi !! Here's the hint if you want them vv
I was able to get through all the endings by skipping one or two mindreads, or acting on one or two of them. I think it's easier if you memorize how many mindreads you need to do. If you're specifically talking about Ending 5, just act on every single mindread option :))
