itch.io

I've been sitting here for a couple of minutes after finishing the vn, starting and restarting this review. 

Because wow I did not expect to enjoy it as thoroughly as I did. 

I don't even know why I was unsure, especially now on the other side of it, because it was so good! 

Mizuhi was such an enjoyable person to be around, I'm not usually big on people who are late, but the ease that him and the MC get into a rhythm (At least on the playthrough I did) was super enjoyable to behold, and a part of me really enjoyed the fact that this vn/the relationship between Mizuhi and the MC had more than just one day to develop. 

I also liked the fact that the world is somewhat textured. Like, the fact you can bring your nintendo with you to work and you can search the hall and find a vending machine you can purchase from and it varies the flavor text really gives it a bit of... well, as I said, texture! (I say this as a person who usually enjoys when choices have consequences, for some reason the way you did this made me simply observe this warmly as 'Oh, of course you can do that. You are a person in this world.')

Honestly if I had the ability to smack Takahashi in the back of the head as hard as I could as soon as he insinuated that I slept my way to my degree, I would have really dynamite-d my life willingly to get a hit on him, but I understand in some senses that MC is trying to be better than that. 
They're struggling with alcoholism and spending their mother's money, but I really respect the fact that they don't really like that about themselves, and are glad to have the job they do to go against that. 

I can also really see the parallel that is obviously drawn between their drinking and Mizuhi's smoking, which he also wants to quit. 

The artstyle has honestly been such a pleasure, with the black and white style being cut by the colors of their eyes, and intermittently with colorful CGs, I honestly really enjoyed that! 
Honestly there hasn't been a lot of MLs that have long hair that aren't in fantasy, so believe me when I say that Mizuhi has been a breath of fresh air and I enjoy his design a heck of a lot! (I also think that I can see you aren't super thrilled about drawing hands, but honestly I thought it was charming to see Mizuhi as a guy that likes to wear long sleeves that cover his hands. Why? No real reason, I just consider it a charm point!)

His casual clothes made me want to get on tiptoes (Because it's been remarked he's pretty tall) and give him a little kiss on the cheek. Snake bite piercings be charming as hell, especially on him! 

The story thus far has been well done and enjoyable, I will be following this project and hope to see more in the future!

This game appeared out of the games I had already checked through in the Yandere tags and playing it was a unique experience. 

I really like the artstyle, the thick lines and the heavy saturation of either gold, red or blue was very entrancing and pulled me forward to see what else the vn had to offer. 

Admittedly some of the dialogue is pretty stilted, like the intro with Lachlan, Bellamy and Chris was incredibly awkward and jerky to me. Whenever it was smooth it was very smooth and enjoyable, but some things that came out of their mouths was very odd, in or out of some contexts. 

Despite that, I enjoyed the story the vn was trying to tell as it is, and I really liked that a good chunk of Yan's dialogue was whiplash central, like when he called his own party boring and the second you agree with him he gets incredibly defensive and demands to know what's wrong with it. 

Good luck with your future projects, I'd love to see how your style continues to go :3 

Listen listen, I know that this is a joke vn, but the innuendos and misdirections are so well done that I have to commend you on that, honestly!

Luka is very well drawn, and he has a pretty severe case of Objectophilia that makes me laugh, this is like if the Main Character from Date Everything didn't have the glasses to see people out of objects but decided to date them anyways. 

And to my knowledge this is the first visual novel I am aware of that we ourselves are playing the inanimate object. 

I hope Luka and Micra (The Microwave :} ) will be happy for years to come. 

Awesome work!

I had downloaded the game a couple of days previous and didn't have the time to play it, but as soon as I did I came back here to leave a review because WOW. 

This really knocked me off my feet in so many ways, that as soon as I got the text box that the demo had ended I just had to come here. 

I'm actually going to play it a second time after this because I know I missed things and I can't wait to learn more! 

The first thing to talk about is the designs of everything. 

The art style is vibrant, unique and lustrous, every new character appeared and I was in awe of the world that it painted, so different and unique to our own.

All of the characters had something about them that pulled the attention, even if by technicality some of them looked more like your average human from our world. 

I'm going to go point by point to just talk about the things I had noticed from my first playthrough, mostly because I see all of the amazing work that you have put into it and I just want to! 

The way Collens is really freaks me out in a good way, the way his design is a cross between youth and age to the point where the main character can't even point to his age is an incredibly interesting choice, and there is an eldritch quality to his design, what with his 'hairclips' looking like eyes with hearts that are constantly staring at the player. In my theory, he has so many hearts upon his design because he's the one that's most constantly thinking about the player, especially around the time of year they 'disappeared' where he becomes more prickly and intense.
(Don't think I didn't notice his actual eyes turning into heart shapes when he realizes who we are and says we came back to him, that gave me the chills <3)
I especially admire the time you took to animate the things such as him spinning the lighter or when he was on top of the player during the bonfire and staring down at them, his heavy and intense breathing practically gave me goosebumps amongst the whiplash. 

Richy was the one that made me truly realize how off the chain this artstyle was going to be, what with his green tones and the looks of his eyes. Honestly my favorite part about him has to be his braces, honestly. 
The Main character talked about how they didn't understand how an adult can have braces, but honestly I find it incredibly charming, and the fact he smiles as much as he does and has such a friendly personality really draws me to him, I would totally dance with him even if I wasn't a great dancer! 
And the scene in the bar where he reminisces slightly with the main character and becomes concerned about them when they voice wanting to go to the ritual was sweet of him.
The fact that he starts crying as soon as he knows it's them is totally understandable, honestly. 

Rudo is such a mystery character, from what little we see of him, and knowing what we know now, I really can't wait for the second playthrough to look at how he interacts with Collens with fresh new eyes. 
After all, the person he was dating disappeared with no warning and is presumably dead, and from the flashback it really looks like he adored the MC. 
I anticipate their next meeting to be very intense, honestly. It would only make sense. 

Honestly, when I met Mandy it seemed to be in a really quick torrent where they were chasing after Rudo, looking for his blue hair, and then this girl shows up with blue hair crying and needing our help. 
It's rare for children to show up in VNs, but Mandy really just helped flesh out the world more. This is really a small town where are there are all kinds of people of all ages (I'm going to guess she's either Rudo's sister or his daughter. I could be wrong, especially considering we don't see Rudo in color, but I'm taking a shot in the dark here!) 
Happy to be the 5th coolest person she knows! 

Which leads us to the 4th coolest person she knows, which is Norman.
Honestly, I agree with the MC that he certainly should have been more careful. 
I understand with his mother's failing health that he's doing the best that he can, but if there is so many kids that it's impossible to get one as soon as they get lost, then they need to hire more people. 
That aside, his kindness with trying to help us with our phone is not to be underestimated, and it was sweet that he wanted to check in on us and do something nice for our help. The design choice of the mouse hoodie is adorable, and I can see why it would be a huge hit with the kids. (The way his sprite flickers specifically when you try to call your parents is something I backed up and did a few more times just to see it, very subtle good work!)

Alex, Hanson and Nick are delightful ways of showing how small their town is, and the variety of their designs is good too, from the wild and wacky, to the definitely-not-stoned, and the subtlety. Alex closing up his shop simply because he's bored and the day hasn't had much going on is perfectly in line, and honestly the help of him and Hanson is a small lifesaver for the MC as it gets their phone in order and gives them a place to stay. 
The way Hanson and Nick talk to each other two is just an added layer, between how remote and close-knit the community is to the point where a police officer can haggle for the price of fixing a car with someone who seems like a close friend (Also, when Nick first came on screen I genuinely thought for a moment that his design was supposed to look like a staggering corpse on purpose complete with rotting cheeks, but after a few seconds I realized that it was just grease!) 

The less that can be said about Sid the better. Honestly you did a great job of writing him just as parasitic as his mother had said he was, and it's a good thing for him that he ran out when he did, because if I was the MC I would have bashed his face in for his shower comment, how slimy! 

And then we come to the bar, and the last person we get a face to a name, Gregory! Honestly, I know I said this with all of them, but Gregory's design kind of knocked my breath away. 
The second I see a tall and soft readhead, I'm in love.
And the second I saw their folded hands, I knew that he was probably a sweetheart, (Which was confirmed by talking with him, seriously he complimented me on my face shape and how it matched with my outfit and even though I wasn't in the game I couldn't stop myself from smiling). 
His hands were also another reason I guessed librarian first try, it just seemed obvious with how he said his life was monotonous and his wardrobe was the only thing that he could really do differently, which was another eye-catching thing about him, as the zippers on the sides were open like hungry maws, along with the fact he also has heart-shaped glasses in his design, though if that says anything in particular about him we will have to see! 

(I also find his reaction to the bonfire scene to be odd in a way that makes me hungry to know more, as he quickly realizes that you are who you are, but unlike the other two he does not cry, however it is implied that he also screams and chases after the main character just like the other two in a bid to get them back.) 

In the end, this whole story and the writing leading to it is absolutely enthralling. The variety in sprites, the animation, the amazing musical backgrounds and exorbitant amount of details makes me ravenous to see more of what comes in the future. 

Why are the MC's Parent's Phone Numbers Disconnected? Why do they dream of rotting in the dirt when they are out in the open and presumably alive? I understand that 10 years is a long time and the others couldn't recognize the MC because it's been the aforementioned alotted time between then and now, but how come the MC forgot about all of them? I can't wait to see more of this world you expand upon and create, I'll be watching this project very closely, this is absolutely amazing. 

Make sure to take care of yourself, creating visual novels is hard work!

Playing all three of them, it's all kind of a tangle when it comes to which one sits worst. 

All have their merits and all have their drawbacks in a sense. 

In WHO'S OUTSIDE, the person is dealt with, and the one that protected you turns away and tells you that it's time to face the world on your own. 

That kind of thing is scary for a person to deal with, especially when you're talking about this MC, who from the tangle of it all acknowledges that their life is lonely, so while it is absolutely in one's best interest not to be with either stalker, there is a sense of isolation, neither in the danger of one, nor in the control of another. Arguably in the sense of normal society that one is the best one, and gives the MC their agency, but it is a very lonely path to take. 

In DEAD AIR it is a complete coin toss as to whether or not the other person was dealt with. 

It literally says in the end parts that they do not know whether they were Spared or Saved, but they also never talk to the person who was on the phone with them again, and it's the same thing as WHO'S OUTSIDE but without any sense of warmth/emotional closure. 

You are alone in the world, of your own blatant volition in all of this, but the paranoia the MC will be left with because of the lack of closure is not to be understated. 

And lastly there is THE KIND CAGE. To me, it's not a good ending for the MC's sense of freedom or autonomy, but there is something a bit comforting about it. 

The MC is no longer going to walk on their own in this world, they have someone that will watch over them and make sure that they're okay, even if they are out of sight, as there is nothing from the wrong number person that suggests that he wants to see them in person. 

He says it's not about being thanked, it's about knowing that he did something that makes the MC's life easier. 

Anyways this is all just my take on it, good luck with upcoming projects! 

This was a very unique storyline, as it has no art aside from the phone and the story that came from it. 

I played it as close to myself as possible, and got the ending WHO'S OUTSIDE where he protects the MC from something worse. 

I'm contemplating trying to find the other two, but I'm pretty content for the most part about how it shook out. 

I'll still give it another go, this was a short and nicely done game, you did an awesome job!

I'm so glad the comments section for this opened up!
I really wanted to put down my thoughts and feelings for this VN, so I hope you don't mind!
Honestly, I really like the premise, a really popular vocalist and song writer falls for someone who doesn't know who they are and/or what they do.

The character models are unique in terms of style and seems really fitting to their personalities, and I really enjoy that you clearly put your heart into it. 

I am kind of confused as to how Koa can be as unique as he is and yet Bev has no idea who he is, and no one in the whole crowd of people at the club notices that he's there with the MC.

I am also curious as to how Luis got into the friend group when both MC and Bev really don't like him. Is he blackmailing Bev or something? She seems like a headstrong enough lady that she wouldn't just allow Luis to just talk over her and invite himself to things. 

That aside I find the narrator to be pretty charming in a cheeky way (And very helpful in telling us how the saves work), and I really like the cafe background, because there's something about it and the buildings we see that makes it feel like it's in a building that houses a bunch of shops, and they're tucked into the corner of the second floor, which is why they gain little to no customers. 

I also wonder if the MC has a relationship with the owner of the cafe considering how they're working the whole cafe by themselves, though that could be due to the slow nature of it. 

I know this is your first time coding, the story is pretty cohesive and I made sure to follow the project, I can't wait to see what more you do! 

There is something about this story that is chilling to me. 

It's a good thing to have in a horror story, but there's something about the loss of control that the MC experiences that in a sense takes my breath away. 

From my view, they are chained to Aster, even if you take the route where the MC tries to distance themselves from him, their world is hazy, fuzzy and numb without him. Even when they know that he's not exactly a nice person, and his mood swings put real fear into them, ultimately they cannot stay away. They cannot find anything within themselves to be mad or angry when Aster waits a few days before messaging them. They roll over when he offers a time to hang out and when. They nearly have a panic attack when the choice to confront him about his absence and unexpected arrival comes back around. The way where when the MC rejects him taking them home they have a panic attack so bad their mind literally starts to unravel.

Another model even texts the MC asking them out, and yet they receive no response because they are not Aster, and there is no need to the MC to fill the hole inside them with a romantic relationship when all the muddied pieces of them call for Aster. 

They talk to friends, but it is not enough. It seems to all be surface level from their numbness, Nishat and Bunni may care about them (or not, we haven't met them yet), to the point where Nishat doesn't know you grew apart from Aster, and Bunni seems to be a work colleague if the fact the MC's boss is asking about them says anything. Not to say you can't be friends with a coworker, but everything about the MC's life is conveyed perfectly with the backgrounds: Empty, Devoid of any faces they care about aside from Aster, and almost monochrome in pinks, purples, whites, greys and blacks. 

The soundtrack seems to also convey that to me as well, because there are dreamy notes to it as if MC isn't completely rooted to the planet.

The endings were also very good, I made sure to play through them four times to get different flavor texts, and it's all so very interesting, because while I really have no idea what the heck is going on, it really seems like Aster is influencing the MC to the point where it's mentally shaking them up and almost puppeting them. 

After all, how can you have your favorite love story that you wrote between two people when one of them (At least mentally) refuses to participate? 

I can't wait to see more from you, I will be keeping an eye on the project because I can't wait for what comes next! 

Hey!
I just wanted to come here and comment because this really took me off guard! Not just because of the really awesome art and the fact that we seem to always get hurt in the end no matter how sweet or mean we are, but because of the soundtrack!
It's a rare time that the soundtrack garners my attention so heavily, and this one really did so, to the point that when it first started playing I got chills from it, you really did a good job with selection and placement because it really tied together the whole experience so completely. 

I will be keeping an eye on this project, I can't wait to see what the Gauges mean and what more is in store for us!

I'll just start this by saying that not a lot of visual novels get me to play other routes, not because I don't like their vns, but because I can't really stand being mean in most contexts. 

This game is so beautiful (and terrifying) and written so well that I couldn't help but comb through the game over and over to try and get all the endings and secret dialogues, and I have to say that your character work, the designs and the story utterly enchant me, so let me take the time to gush about all of it!

You have clearly put a lot of time and effort into every little bit of this, the UI is very engaging and I love how it shows the Cannibuns before we know what they even are and the formatting is clearly in homage to the more ancient technologies that the main characters have to deal with. 

Loading Save files is a bit difficult, as it usually sends me way earlier than when I placed the save, but honestly it's such a minor complaint in contrast to all the wonderful things that is here.

Ben honestly took my attention first, and I helped him out. It's so interesting to see the reactions from him and Liam, because it really seems like the two of them are also very interested in the main character, though maybe the little hearts within the swirling depths of Ben's eyes during the garden scene is a design choice? Either way he deserves a lot of smooches, even if it's implied that he's watching closely over us for Allen for 'research' purposes. 

Speaking of, another one that deserves a lot of smooches is Allen. His design is immaculate, honestly as soon as I saw him I was like 'Oh no, he's going to be one of those emotionless types that's hard to be around, huh?', but the way he is written and the way he shows his heart even when he cannot properly express himself the way he wants to is absolutely *chefs kiss*, it made me glad that I saved him for last, his expressions when he is finally able to show them is so good, I can't wait to see more of how he treats his 'antidote'. 

Liam is one who I am also curious about, even when I initially saw him I was a little put off by his joking initially, him muttering that he wanted to spend time with the player and how everything went down with the Cannibun (I named mine Sweetheart), was absolutely interesting. The parallels that you can draw between his design and the Cannibuns... I wonder if that was intentional? I hope to learn a little bit more from him and continue a good 'co-parenting' routine! 

Paloma is a sweetheart, she's one of the many continual home runs that you have put out there with her design, she's gorgeous! I'm a bit sad she lost her flower in the attack, as she obviously cared about it, but aside from that she's an awesome person, from her hinted at backstory and the way she deals with Sonny, along with the fact she can throw back hard liquor with the best of them! (Wonder how she's gonna take what happened with her brother whom she obviously cares so much about...)

Which rounds us out to Sonny. There's something about him... that just seems to squish and give when it comes to how we play the game. 

I admire that he's a character with facial hair (You don't see a lot of them in games unless they're obviously made out to be DILF material), and the way he's so reckless is interesting. 

You would kind of think with the hinted at backstory that there is with him and Paloma that he would at least be a bit more careful, but seeing him but heads with Allen definitely spices things up a bit, and the way that he automatically calls Allen out for his feelings and definitely has some feelings about it (that are not pertaining to interest in the main character) has been very interesting... 

I really wonder what happened to him. 

But I suppose we'll find that out in the next update, whenever that will be! The fact that you have done so much almost all by yourself is an amazingly impressive feat, especially when the product is so polished (Again, the UI was so amazing that I super enjoyed navigating it for whatever needs I had), and the story is so eye-catching and enthralling, I just cannot wait to see what else you have to say or do, I'll be keeping a close eye on the development, but also make sure that you're taking care of yourself, visual novels are very hard to do and very time consuming! 

Best of luck to you, 

Till next time!

Short and Sweet (Well, as sweet as can be), this was very well done, fantastic work! <3

Cae was suitably threatening, I hope we can see him again from you in the future, but even if not it's all good, definitely looking forward to what you might put out next :3

Incredibly interesting concept, seems like a real kind of 'love letter' to sitcoms with the references along with how you twist it, and I really cannot wait to see more of it, because there are so many theories you can have for it! (Whether or not the theories are accurate are another matter! X3 )

I'll make sure to follow this project and see what else you come up with, it's absolutely fabulous! 

Enchanting. 

This game is enchanting and amazing in a nicely horrifying way.
This absolutely has a lot of connections to the design details of The Freak Circus of Horrors (Boerius' eyes being the main one), but I consider it in a way that makes it a love letter to that and the other games referenced <3
Seeing the hints of Pierrot, Sans, Jestyn and others was absolutely fabulous as well <3

The story for the visual novel in itself is so interesting, and I can see you put in a lot of time in giving flavor texts that depend on the types of MCs there can be, whether or not they are ambitious or not, cutthroat or kind. 

They all have the unifying family troubles, and their art is always macabre, but how they act to the world outside is (or can be) different to how they put themselves out there in their paintings, and I find that admirable that you took the time to put that much diversity in that :3 

The changes that can happen depending on where you look around is cool too, finding someone as kind and sane as Sinestesia behind the most brutal looking door with the most visceral gore inside was a very unique choice! 

I really hope the best for her, really, I hope good things happen to her and us <3 

The animations and the music are so well done that I cannot take my eyes off of it, especially when Boerius and Titere were facing off against each other, the way Boerius was shaking with rage was absolutely peak <3 

I know projects like these take a long time, and my knowledge in Spanish is rudimentary at best, but I will be keeping an eye on this project eager to see more of what you do with it! 

Please take care of yourself, cheers! 

I am honestly so happy that I have stumbled across this game. 

The time and effort that was placed into all of this is immaculate and cannot be understated. 

Aside from the few translation errors, the story is absolutely entrancing, and I really want to learn more about it! 

Because from what it sounds like with Adrian, Slugmonsters are everywhere, however it is not 'Normal', and they blend into society for hunting and other such things. 

I find all of the characters unique, and hope to see more of their relationships explored in some ways, like how Y/N met with Kevin and PB, since it was mentioned briefly how they met Adrian

The fact that LT has superpowers but it's not heavily commented on is interesting, along with the fact that people here are born with hair colors that are not of our original world. 

I really can't wait to see more of what your brain comes up with! 

Speaking of, the Art is phenomenal.

It cannot be understated that not only is the character design unique and beautiful, but the amount of time and detail put into everything about it had me playing this game multiple times, the animations knocked me off my feet and had me watching it again and again, especially the end one, so well done!

-

Adrian's design absolutely floored me seeing all of it, I feel like if I was Y/N I would have a hell of a time not staring at him admiringly all day, not just because of the muscles, but how fluffy he is and the way the colors interplay with one another on him. 

The interactions between Adrian and Y/N have a kind of tonal whiplash to them, but at the same time I appreciate the fact that it's there, in some aspects. 

Because it's like you're talking to a friend you've had for a small while, and then they say something that completely comes out of left field and has you staring into space wondering if they really just said that. 

Still, in the end when he asked me to trust him, I couldn't not trust him, he seems like a sweet friend, and the eye changes alone give him away in a way that I really love to see. 

Which circles over to Kevin, I literally laughed when his introduction had Y/N literally run face first into his chest with a little 'Boing~!', what an introduction, I loved that, and his design is so good too! 

If it wasn't for the fact he's physically fit and moving often for sports, I would ask him to lay his head on my lap to comb my fingers through his adorable fluffy hair! 

The fact Kevin forced himself to eat the chocolate pastry when Y/N offered was very sweet of him, I loved his fluster, and a part of me admired his conflict when he literally threw it up later and both told Y/N quietly that they should never do that since it's killing him, yet he would definitely have them do that again if they tried. 

The ending animation was heart-breaking, I'm glad that Y/N is okay, even if he's devastated that it happened at all.

His conflict with PB is very interesting, and I love the way that the screen gets fuzzy at the edges with either blue or pink, and how when the two of them make noises at the same time that the dialogue boxes literally split in half. 

It's kind of like how the two of them aren't so different after all, despite how they clash, or maybe they clash because they are so alike. 

Speaking of PB, I find her incredibly interesting! 

She has enough drive to become the Student Council President, however she is in trouble all the time and sometimes forgets her homework, the opposition of those two things really has me wanting to pick her brain a bit. 

Is she student council president because that is something her father expects of her? 

Or is there something else driving her?

Also, the interaction she has with Kevin when Y/N decides to leave them alone is very... interesting. 

Am I right to perceive that PB is trans? If so, good for her! (If not, that's fine, I just found the wording around that interaction caught my attention). 

The fact that she is so interested in K-Pop and has an unspoken about little bird on her head makes me wonder things, and I'm so excited to know more about her, how she chose Y/N when it seems like she's very popular with others and the like! 

I am curious to know more about Lady Tem and Professor Astro, their designs are so nice and the friction that they have obviously mirrors what Kevin and PB are dealing with as well, only with students instead of Y/N, which makes me really wonder about their pasts and how they came to have these jobs. 

Astro obviously seems to care about his job and focuses well on it, however Lady Tem has such a depth of things that she does and could do that I wonder why exactly she's decided to pick up teaching? 

To make Astro mad? Unsure, but willing to find out more! 

I also can't wait to see more of Astro's backstory, the flashbacks he had when he was watching Y/N bleed out on the floor has me wondering who that was. 

Was it Y/N's Aunt? Was it a past Lover? Honestly dying to know, especially if that's what's fueling his orange juice addiction (Which, as a sidenote, is kind of hilarious). 

Speaking of Y/N bleeding out, David.

For a dude that's only around until Y/N gets stabbed before getting killed, he's a perfect mix of feral and unsettling. 

The VN implies that he's been stealing money from them for a while, but I wonder how that works because they have Kevin and PB with them very often and I doubt they would let that stuff slide, especially with his reputation and how dangerous he is. 

What exactly was going on with them before this time? 

Are the adults really not intervening because they think he's too dangerous, or is it something to do with his orange blood?

And talking about David is really the setting off point to me talking about the art once again. 

The sprites as he's threatening and yelling before getting beaten and bleeding orange blood really has me in a small chokehold, along with everyone else. 

You put so much time in making so many sprites, and how it flashes by so fast sometimes, I am absolutely in awe of the craft you made of all of this, and how smooth the animations are, with the bits of personality like how Y/N looks out of the alleyway before they decide to stroll forward, or how Kevin's eyes flash multiple colors before he continues crying, David being labeled as 'Mistaken' in the Main Menu, and so much more! 

I really can't wait to sink my teeth into however this decides to go, I've been reading the small amount of the comics there is and you put so much effort into all of it that I'm just starstruck by all of it. 

Please make sure to take care of yourself, because all of this is so in depth, you and the team involved did such an amazing job that could be gushed about for hours, please make sure to hydrate and be well!

10/10, such an enjoyable and gorgeous demo, would recommend! 

Hello! 

I'm just here to comment on the game! 

I found it a bit after refreshing the page in the yandere tag as I do, and it appeared between two games that aren't very recent, which intrigued me. 

The premise is cool, and I was interested to see how it would go. 

The art style is very charming in my opinion, the shading and lighting gives the characters a particular shine kind of like they're gems, and the way the eyes are drawn takes my eyes to them often :3 

I was a bit confused with the way the game addresses both Ollie and the MC as 'You', in certain places, but I know that can be ironed out! 

I found Ollie particularly interesting, mostly because when I did a first playthrough, I picked Romance as my genre, and he immediately proved to be a bit hypocritical when it came to MC considering he told them that he likes the genre to their face and then almost immediately retracted the statement in his head. 

I'm interested to see if the fact the player is controlling this situation causes him to act out in ways that the character wouldn't usually act out? The game did say that you can mold him, I wonder if there is any pushback to it... 

Either way, the demo was pretty cool, and I will be waiting for what you will be doing in the future, thanks!

(Edit: Almost forgot to mention that the UI absolutely entrances me with how it is ingratiated into the whole thing. 'Unlock', 'Our History', very smartly done, I admire that!)

Hey there! 

I just played your game, and I found it very interesting and cool, for various reasons! 

To start with, the artwork is very well done, I like the balance of smoothness in color and the grit of detail, and all of the love interests were so charming! 

My only side note is that I'm not really sure with how okay the MC is with Monsters? Like, the game has the MC dating them, but in the introduction when they are at the store, MC mentions being fired from their previous job because they couldn't get along with the "weirdos", which I think is an odd choice of words for someone who can flirt with the monsters, and has a friend in them with Amari? 

But that's a little nitpick, ultimately I really enjoyed the story, with how the MC had been in their job for a while and is looking for something to shake up their lives in one way or another. 

The first ending I had gotten was the 'To Be Continued' with Amari, but my second playthrough had me getting the 'Love to the Bone' ending, which I thought was so adorable and sweet! 

I really enjoyed Konstantin and their design with the heart shirt hanging off of their frame to the point you could see their ribs through his shirt, and I always am a sucker for blushy boys!! 

Brandon was pretty charming as well, I'm very interested to see what we can acquire in terms of learning things about him, considering the demo kind of limits it. 

His blushes are sweet, his animation when he looked back and forth was nice, and I really admired the way the shade went over his eyes which made them brighten more when he was on alert, very enjoyable!

Amari was very mysterious and I'm also curious to learn more about her, because it seems like her and the MC are friends, but there isn't much mentioned about it aside from that. The way Lucas and Brandon both completely disappeared after MC left and came back makes me wonder what happened to them, if anything indeed did happen to them. 

The close up shot of her biting her lip is absolutely *chefs kiss* well done, and I will be following to see what more comes up from this! 

Make sure to take your time and take care of yourself!

Rest assured that it d isn't ruin it for me! 

It didn't completely yank me out of the story, I just thought it was rather funny, and I understand where you are coming from, I think this was a good compromise if people are going to be making a lot of bad faith interpretations of you and your work :/ 

Thank you for your explanation though, hope to see more from you whenever the inspiration strikes you <3

I played this game as blind as I could. 

I saw his face, I saw the title of the game, and I hit download. 

The aesthetic of this game is absolutely enchanting, and the artwork is so lovely. 

Playing this game was like looking at an old snapshot and thinking very wistfully about the person whom is the contents of it, which is very apt considering the aesthetic and the ending. 

The whole thing makes it feel like Pasha is wisps of smoke, I personally felt honored that he liked me enough to pass through my fingers on the way out rather than never interacting with me. 

His background and how everything came about for him was so out of left field that I nearly felt like I was playing a comedy vn for a second, if not for the seriousness and the gravity everything else is treated with. 

I feel warmly that even if Pasha ultimately has to let MC go, that necklace will stay in a place of honor, either on their person or in their house, and Pasha will always carry warm and fond memories even if he goes and does other things, or finds other people (If I have read correctly in his info screen, he later gets married). 

As the game aptly puts it: You are two ships passing through the night, signaling to each other, letting them know you are there, and you see them too. 

Beautiful and melancholy game, amazing work on all fronts. 

Hello! 

I just wanted to leave a comment here because I have played through your demo around 4+ times, and when I do something like that then I definitely have to tell the person/team who made this why I did so!

Usually how I play games is to play as close to myself as possible, and I was stunned by the amount of customization that is present in just bringing about the MC, not just through looks, but their background and the preset powers they can have and other such things! 

The reason why I played multiple times is because I found it quite amazing that where the MC comes from, their background and what age they are, are really baked into the dough of the story itself, even from the intro screen! 

I played as a moderately younger MC, a very old MC, a very young MC, and as Tanya (I also went to the age brackets a few times to see what would be said about a moderately older MC and an MC that was of age range). 

The mentions of grave robbing made me laugh out loud a bit when it came to that kind of thing, and I really enjoyed finding all the differences and nuances to all the routes you can go and how that not only lead to how you interacted with the world, but how the world interacts with you. 

A part of me is very super excited to see the expansions of these things simply so I can play this story on different ages, though I can totally see why that would be A LOT to do! 

The differences between Tanya and MC were very interesting to look over as well, the similarities as well as to what they would do if they were in a very similar situation of arriving to the Church of Ichor, even if they do not have similar backgrounds or reasonings. 

Which brings me around to the worldbuilding. 

Holy fuck this world-building swept me off my feet in a sense, because not only is it complex and enchanting, but the way it kind of mirrors our own world and a certain religion within it, and shows all of this within a sermon was just awesome to me! 

I really can't wait to see expansions of the 'Gifts' that everyone has, I have a feeling you've put a lot of thought into it, and I am so curious as to what Ramon has, as it was the only one that I couldn't see being hinted at like it is with Eden, or told explicitly like with Louisa and Ariel. 

Which brings me around to talking about the characters. 

Louisa is a sassy older woman, I'll give her that, but I appreciate that with Tanya and a younger MC she tells Ramon to be careful with their hearts. I truly envy her design, I love hearts and heart-eyes, and it works very well with her bright pink and purple hair and her overall look in general. 

Eden is the perfect set up person for the Church of Ichor to use as an introduction. Eden saying that they didn't really have the same beliefs but just come in for the community and the sermons is the perfect non-threatening hook you would want for a Cult. And she is quite lovely, the flowers blooming in his long hair, the green eyes with pink flowers- even if it may be on some level a facade (Or not, who knows), I consider them to be quite the lovely introduction. 

When it comes to Ariel, I find it very interesting that she is only seen in Tanya's view for the briefest window of time. It makes me wonder more about her, and she seems like a very sweet person.

Which brings us to Ramon. 

Whoa. This man really helps break the mold, him and Boone from 'See How the Cat Jumps' are the only love interests from Yandere-labeled games who are explicitly from the older side and cater to those who have a taste for older men (In Ramon's case, a DILF considering Ariel is his daughter). 

His brightly colored hair and boisterous demeanor, a part of me wonders if the type of yandere he could be is a Steamroller. 

Like, 'Yes, I see you are fighting this destiny of ours, but it is what it is, and there is nothing you can do to change it, even if you try to run, even if you try to fight, in the end your place is here by my side'. 

I'm sure I will see in the future. 

Tanya is an MC whom I deeply sympathize with, and want to see good things happen for her. She is prickly and mistrustful, because that came from all the ways people had treated her, and continue to treat her even in the present time. 

Seeing how alone she is shows how perfect she would be as the target of a cult. 

Because it is an offering of structure, safety and belonging. 

Of course she mistrusts it, of course she sees that there are things hiding underneath here. 

But... If the outside world always treat you like a dog (as she had compared herself to with her facemask), and there is only one place that seems to be holding out a hand to you, then won't there be a voice inside you that tells you to take it? 

-

The artwork is beautiful, the character designs for all of them are unique and lovely, and I hope to see more from you in the future, I will be following this game where and when I can.

(Though of course, take your time. You said that your motivation for creating has been on an all-time low, so please take care of yourself.) 

All in all, an incredible demo that I recommend for everyone to play if they love good world-building, cults and DILFs.

Thank you so much!! ❤️

I really respect the time and effort that was put into the game, I thought it only right I gave it some thought and let you know that your details are seen and appreciated!!

And My first Bachelors, I shall cherish it with my life ❤️

I keep starting and stopping and redoing the beginning of this review, because honestly there is so much to say. 

Rabbits Burn Softly is an immaculate game, as far as the demo is out, I wait in utter anticipation and excitement for the continuation of this game. 

To begin with, the UI is incredibly unique, with an amount of detail and style to it that automatically put it a cut above the rest in my opinion.

The cursor and the needle and thread based things were adorable, and it gave me a sense that even when Foks wasn't mentioned in the scene at all, he was still there in the MC's mind and heart, because of the way the UI was set up so that stitchings and fabrics were always on screen. 

The backgrounds and the detail work on everything is completely awesome, with the fox statue at the school and on the cups, the street names like Vulpine, the way the MC's phone charm was not only there but called out in story and how the MC's phone is very gently cracked, all of those details and more just goes to show how well thought out everything was placed into it is, and I find that so inspiring. 

The artwork in this game is something I could not take my eyes off of, and the way it was mixed in with detail was completely and utterly lovely. 

How Kian had his face and coloring covered until the MC actually found something to connect with was so well-done, and just designs of the characters is just... amazing. 

Kian is exactly the type of person that you would expect to be a business major, with his sharp blue eyes, confidence, and ability to completely steamroll over anyone if he wants to. 

In the first introduction, I found him quite brisk, but ultimately his politeness had me passing his behavior off as something going on with his day, and I am pleased to see that seemed to be the case. 

I am very interested in seeing more from him, especially as he seems to be the one closest to MC at this point aside from Foks, as he is the only one we actively see a face to (Not counting the faces in the phone/Foks).

-

Speaking of faces we can't see, I am very very interested in seeing what exactly is going on with Ashley. 

Like, her sprite comes up and shows her in a very mean girl fashion, and yes, the game states multiple times that she is being fake nice and rather back-handed, but there is something about her that just makes me feel like that might not be the whole story?? 

I may be misreading things- I likely am-, but the way she texts to us and generally talks to us makes it seem like she isn't really all that bad. Like, the MC is putting more maliciousness onto Ashley than what Ashley is really dishing out. 

It makes me feel like she's trying to reach out a bit in her own way, but she just doesn't know how to properly connect with the MC, as they are so different from her. 

Telling her that you're going to go to the room, she balks a bit, but she smiles and tells them that she was sure that they were going to try and bail, and when she thinks that Kian and MC are on a date, sure she steamrolls a bit, but she also gives an apology, and it makes me wonder if I'm just crazy seeing these things and thinking that she isn't a wholly bad person. 

I know that the game stated that she liked playing the peacekeeper, but that just goes to further make me think that she isn't actively trying to be malicious, her and the MC just don't gel super well together, despite best efforts. 

I find the other side characters that weren't given a face have their own personalities as well and that's pretty cool. 

Professor Hawkwell is a very self-important man, and Tyler is someone who's coasting on life and just wants to get paid more if it can be helped (The fact that he got so aggressive with MC only when they came face to face was crazy). 

- 

When it comes to the MC themselves, I really like the way they are portrayed. 

I usually play my first run through of games as close to myself as physically possible, but there were just some things that the MC said that made them quite the refreshing protagonist. 

Sure, they may have not had any friends, but the fact that they like their job and the lull that cradles them comfortably through the day was such a nice change of pace. The fact they aren't struggling financially and are going through college on a scholarship is such a nice change of pace too, so often you see MCs that are scrimping and working jobs they hate just to stay in a place they don't even like, that this was just such a nice turnaround. 

On average, they seem to view the world through such a softly distant lens. 

Whether the softness is in want, bitter and sad or even in irritation doesn't really matter, because ultimately they don't want to rock the boat, and just gently float in a suspension and calm, rather than being carried in the current of other people's tasks or forcefulness, even when that does end up happening.

The things that they are passionate about helps them stand out, like their love for FBB, or how they reacted when Foks was on fire and the sheer panic and determination they had, and it gives them a heart that makes me want them to succeed in happiness, wherever they find it.

The way they cherish Foks just goes to show the deep care and love they have, even if they are rough with everyone else. 

-

Speaking of, Foks is... I can't even describe how much I love him and the way he is written. 

His design is so lovely, in his plushie form and in his human one. The x's in his eyes that allude to button eyes, the darkness at the end of his limbs, his completely real fox ears and tail, his sharp canines, and the fact that his ears are almost constantly twitching even when the rest of him is stationary really just goes to show what he said is true, he's kind of over the sedentary lifestyle, even when he is standing still. 

I can't wait to explore the relationship he has with MC, there's something about the way he carries himself with them that I am so hungry to see more of. 

That scene where he cuts his own ear? Chills, and I loved it. 

- 

10/10 game, definitely following and excited to see more, thank you!

I just played Home is Where He is and I am... absolutely enchanted. 

The story is intriguing, and there is something about the way that this story that sends shivers down my spine, in a way I always love when it comes to Yanderes and any media involving them. 

The kind of brain zaps that mean I will be paying very close attention to this game in the future. 

The ambiance was perfect for an imprisonment in a home that seems to be the absolute personification of Mold (In the form of Mould), the backgrounds were a kind of amalgamation where I wonder how rich that grandfather was, because even with an old and deserted house, the kitchen was very modern with such pretty countertops.

The MC should absolutely do everything they can to get out of the house with how mold affects people, and they are doing the best that they can out of the situation with a creature they don't really know the origin of, or how to handle. 

Mould is drawn so lovely, and there's something about the way he moves, speaks and tries to sneak that entrances me, to the point that I want to be nice to him, maybe give him a little kiss on the hand, even if that is not in our best interests.

When did he get ahold of the MC's old shirt? How old is it? How is he getting ahold of food? (I really worry that the MC is just having severe hallucinations and is eating moldy food). 

I really want to learn more about the MC and the relationship they had with their grandfather, and what their grandfather had with the family, because why does everyone but the MC not actually care that the grandfather is dead? 

What special connection did the two of them have before he got sick? 

So many questions, again I will be keeping an eye out for what you do in the future with this awesome game, have a miraculous week!

I just came around after playing Infatuation Inferno, and while a part of me was content to just follow to see more of your content for a later date, my mouse went over the options after I saved, and I heard the flick of a lighter sound, and I just had to come here to gush about that. 

That is such attention to detail that I don't think that I've seen anyone else do, along with the on fire text when looking back at the history, this was just an amazingly centered experience. 

In the end, Vergil was so sweet and I could see where he was coming from to the point I probably made a dumb decision and said Yes to being his, because ultimately I saw the religious trauma and everything else that came from that and went ' Oh Jeez, I don't have anything nearly as bad as that, but I feel you buddy.' 

He's worth being loved, if he just had parents that were more loving and better equipped then things could have gone better for Vergil. 

And honestly, him only blinding the person that tried to murder us makes me think the same thing as the commenter below, that he's pretty tame, and even if in the end it's not a smart thing to say yes to him, trying and caring about him sounded better than saying no to someone with selfworth that's lower than dirt. 

You drew him very beautifully, I love the style of his hair and the scars that mar his arm, a part of me wonders what the tattoos he has represent? 

Either way, you did a brilliant job and I can't wait to see more from Vergil and from you <3

I just played this game rather than doing the schoolwork that I needed to do X3 

Let me just start right off the back that this demo is a 10/10 for me. 

The artwork is gorgeous, the backgrounds are beautiful, and the little details you take the time to put in are amazing (Like the vase of flowers appearing at the table after Turquoise gets it and fills it with the flowers). 

The CGs are absolutely entrancing, and the background music (Was it on a Kalimba?) is absolutely gorgeous. 

There's something about the combination of it all that made me feel like melting in my seat. Despite the fact that Turquoise is a Yandere and clearly needs help, there is something about the way him and the MC interact that makes me feel completely natural and at home with how the game has you sitting beside him, how you can choose to have him sleep beside you. 

You have known Turquoise for quite a few months, and he feels so safe, and even if there is a chill in the air, he is the blanket that is wrapped around you to make you feel so content to be there. 

When the stars bled from his eyes and he was staring at us with that fuzzy gaze, a small shiver went through my heart, but I know that even if I was sleepily awake, I would have just wrapped my arms around him and told him that everything is going to be okay. 

Thank you for the Demo, the way you said you wanted to analyze Turquoise makes me very excited for your particular spin on a Yandere, I made sure to follow so I can keep an eye on your work, I hope you feel very proud of yourself!

I really just wanted you to know that I appreciate all the work you put into this, and it was so amazing that I just had to let you know as soon as possible!

I'm going to play Dean and Tango's routes tonight, as the lack of ability to save during choices has me combing through dialogue to pinpoint before the options and save there, which takes up a decent amount of time for replaying, even with being able to skip as sometimes I'll mess up X) 

I think Azul's secret ending was my first ending (As I try to play characters as close to myself as possible on first playthroughs), but without a tracking system/playthrough guide I wouldn't be sure if I hit a secret ending or a normal ending until I play a bit more :O 

(Edit: I realize I did not get Azul's secret ending since I found Dean's (Omg), I'm going to keep trying different combos to get more than just the normal ending!! Though a guide may be helpful at some point, you've come up with a pretty awesomely complex system!) 

You did a phenomenal job with your story, it really grabbed me by the throat and dragged me along with it, I am so excited to see more, and I really can't praise your designs and detail enough, I love the obvious thought and care you put into it, it honestly really shines through and is very beautiful, I hope you are proud of yourself because it is wonderful <3

For a first time game this is absolutely immense in so many ways, so I hope you are taking good care of yourself, you're doing awesome and it's good you're open to feedback, I hope you take good care of yourself while you're doing this project, okay? 

I will definitely be watching this Itchio as well as your tumblr, maybe making fanfics if I can get over my embarrassment X3 

Thank you again for all you do <3

I am sitting here in the dead of night, having just played a first playthrough of your demo. 

So many things happened, and by the end of it, I just sat there and said " This is fantastic.", because that was all I could think to say. 

But I have so much more to talk about with this demo!!

First off, The fact that something that is so long is just a demo completely bowled me over, it's wonderful, I literally stopped at one point and went 'Wow, I didn't know demos could run this long.', and I was so happy for it.

The character designs are so wonderful, Azul and Dean had me falling in love with them at first sight, and when Connor grabbed us and appeared, I actively thought 'Who the hell is this plain guy??' because Connor did exactly what I assume he was supposed to do: look average so as to offset the horrible personality and things he does. He literally looks like he could blend into a crowd and no one would be any the wiser about the things he's done. 

-

But focusing on the ones I adore, Azul is like a puzzle box that I want to solve, he was the one I targeted on my first playthrough of the demo. 

He is obviously fiercely protective of Desmond, and he's so many other things. Sweet, kind, a bit out of touch, a bit paranoid and angry, I really can't wait to see more about him and his son, and maybe hopefully that beautiful man may fall in love with me someday with any luck <3 

-

I feel the same way about Dean from the small bits I've seen about him. (He'll be my next playthrough of the demo)

His beautiful nails with the cute little ladybug on them, his blue honeycomb earrings, his golden eyes, his connections to insects, I saw him offering us coffee and being so kind to us but so catty to Irene and I just imagined linking arms with him and sashaying our way to the breakroom to talk trash. 

I would hold his hands and kiss them many times if he would let me.

The butterfly scene was so beautiful. I know he got very cagey with it, but it was drawn so well and with such poetic words.

- 

Tango, his sister Clara and his cat Sharky are so wonderful too. I'll be trying to do a third playthrough to see more about him, but even without that, you put so much detail into the things about him, the things that he wears, the things he likes, and even without seeing more of him, I already know he is super close with Clara, and I love to see that! 

The fact him and Clara are friends with the MC despite them being a reclusive workaholic just goes to show how warm and friendly they are, and the small moment where he let the MC vent before going to them and helping them calm down... I honestly got a small crush on him from that, not as much as Azul and Dean, but he obviously has a soft spot in my heart already and I hope to see more of him as well. 

And Clara seems to be such a sweet and nice person, we're really lucky to have her as a friend <3

- 

When it comes to the technical stuff, there are a few issues, nothing too big! A bit of editing for the texts (But nothing dramatic, don't worry, You did amazing!), and the inability to save during choices (Though maybe that was the plan?), but those are honestly nitpicks!

- 

Back to the good stuff, I really like how much we can hate Darren and Irene, the way they just look just puts you off from vibes alone!

Honestly, I'm super surprised that Irene isn't the Mistress that Darren is cheating on his wife with!

(Azul was so awesome for punching desserts into his face, love Azul <3 ) 

I really want to learn more about Lorenzo and Richard as well, I'm honestly slightly scared of Richard, there's just something about him and the way he had used the coupon that made Azul so upset that makes me wonder if he's going to be a big threat...

-

The detail that you had put into the characters is obvious and full of love. 

The details in Clara's hair clips, the fact that her and Tango have hair that match at the tops but are dyed differently at the bottom (Which I think just really symbolizes how close they are as siblings), The fact that Connor's shirt is slightly untucked, the gold and ruby clip in Lorenzo's hair along with his sliiiiightly opened up shirt and rolled up sleeves, Richard's jewelry and long hair, Dean's matching jewelry and nails with the adorable ladybug, Azul with his beautiful long hair, golden piercings and nails, and how both he and Desmond have little animal prints on their aprons, Azul with a frog and Desmond with a little crow- I could really go on and on, but just know that your hard work is noticed and appreciated! 

-

The world-building is completely enchanting to me and I cannot wait to find out more about it. 

Who is causing us nightmares? 

Who is the woman from our dreams- Our wife- and why was she in the red world in the state she was in? 

Who was the man we had run into at the start? 

I have so many questions, and I cannot wait to find the answers to them. 

Definitely following for more, I can't wait to see what you do next!

Hey Angel, I just wanted to come here and pour out all my thoughts that I've had so far on YALD <3 

You leave me in absolute awe with the detail of the models that you make, along with how much you get done with them in a short amount of time, I had honestly never expected a side game like this when YHJB is so detailed in of itself. 

The background sets are absolutely top notch, it fits with the grimy unhingedness of the characters you make, even the sterile office had a quality about it that made me think 'Of course Lester lurks around here all the time. Of course this is where he works.'

The unidentifiable meat on hooks was just another thing to get the heart pumping and the mind running around, I mean the blood-soaked box fridge by the stairs absolutely makes me think Lester shoves people down the stairs and they just kind of... Fall and bleed into it. 

Speaking of the Male Lead, I am kind of obsessed with him in a way. 

Not exactly like I am with Jayce Blackwood, but the fact the MC kept referring to him as a dog, and I kept picking dialogue options that kept him acting nice and kind of shy, that a part of me is just like 'No, Lester, tomorrow when I see you, you are the one that is going to get a bath'. With the image of spraying him down with a water hose, and brushing his wet hair when he's been properly treated coming to mind. Cigarette smoke and dollar store cologne no longer! (As if he wouldn't still continue to smoke).

The whole conundrum you shoved into this one man gives me whiplash in a good way, because there is no such thing as a perfect victim, but goddamn does Lester really show that isn't the case, with the fact that even though he got scratched up and burned up and all this stuff, he still manages to do perverted things like with the coffee and the chair, still kidnaps and still goes into a bit of psychosis near the end no matter how nice the MC was. 

I really admire the Chekov's gun we may have with Lester's failing eyesight and the fact that he nearly shot the MC a few times. It just adds a depth of character I really admire you for going with, along with his childhood being so... Outwardly happy? His parents seem to love him a lot, at least by the album standards and the fact they are concerned about him running a farm all by himself. 

The desperate need to find out about the Girlfriend and what is true or not is kind of unreal. 

I feel like maybe there would be more to say, but I'll wait until the Full Release, I think. 

Eagerly awaiting for the next update or whatever it is you do Angel, thank you for all your time, hard work and crazy ideas!! 

I love how you can be a decent person (for the most part *cough*) and get all of the good endings at your fingertips, gotta love that <3 
The art is delightful, the characters were phenomenal with the humor and references, it was all basically perfect, thank you for making this game <3

This mini demo was so awesome!!
It's a shame it was so short, but the backgrounds are gorgeous, and I love the designs you made for TK and Victor. 
There are a lot of Your Boyfriend fangames, but I'll be honest, I haven't played most of them, and this one immediately caught my attention. 
I cannot wait to see a full Demo/more of this, I'm eager to see what you do next!

This is such a charming game! (I mean, for being a Yandere game X)  ) 

Honestly, it's so refreshing seeing an MC who seems to have a really positive outlook on life, they seem to take things in stride, like their job and the people they surround themselves with seem kind and charming!
You see so many sarcastic and rough MCs and friends that this was honestly a charming breath of fresh air! 

I'm definitely following and waiting in anticipation for more of what you do!

Saw this and decided to give it a bit of a shot, the story is very interesting, along with the setting, I can't wait to see what you do with it! :)

Hello! 

Just finished playing Your Perfect Boyfriend, and it was so cool!!! 

The art was done so well, it was so smooth and warm, Alexander is honestly so handsome and if it wasn't for the fact he's crazy he would of course be the perfect boyfriend <3 

The pull back from the framing literally made me gasp, I knew from the tags that he was crazy, but the implementation of the boarders of the game being actually bars was absolutely amazing, a brilliant choice, you did so well on that. 

I kind of wish this game was longer, but I totally get it was for the constraints of the jam, it just left me a hankering for more of the good stuff!! 

Thank you again for making this, it was amazing <3 

I downloaded this game a while back when it was first announced, but it was just today that I really sat down and took the time to play it. 

The artstyle is so breathtaking that I can't even explain it. Like, the CG with Anselm and his mirror polished armor literally took my breath away. The backgrounds have a mystical touch to them with the fuzziness of it all, like a painting that perfectly portrays the subject without going into too much detail. 

And the writing is literally top notch, I would literally dream to write like that with it's detailed and descriptive words and the way it conveys exactly what you want it to when you want it to. 

The music magnificent, and the story itself has me at the edge of my seat to learn more about it and spend more time with Anselm and the other Love Interest. 

The fact that the first words we even read was from ??? was so amazing, and the horrifying bits that are sprinkled into the demo shocked me and literally had me reaching up my hand to cover the faces and tilt my screen, especially in the clearing as we were winding down to head to sleep.

There is honestly so much I could talk about in a deep dive sense, but I honestly backtracked as soon as I was finished with the demo to just put down my first excitable impressions. 

I will wait for a lifetime to see more of this, thank you so much for crafting such a magnificent game with such spectacular qualities and such marvelously yandere love interests! 

Just wanted to add to all the voices here, take all the time you need, your art is beautiful and your time is precious, thank you for all you have done and we all hope you're in good health <3

I was just scrolling back on the Yandere tag when I saw your game, which wasn't there before. 

I was immediately intrigued, and decided to give it a shot. 

I am super grateful that I did, I find the premise and the artistic direction very well done, and it leaves me with questions that I really want the answers to. 

Like, how come Lane and the Biker Boy are the only things that have color on them, with the world all bled black and white and the other NPCs shadows? Is Biker Boy actually French, or is he just trying to be cute and succeeding? 

Honestly I hate working with people like Lane, and am not a huge fan of cocky guys, but I do appreciate him coming and helping the MC while they were struggling with the creep trying to get their number, honestly he could have done nothing at all, and the fact that he has the relatable trait of regretting the words that come flying out of his mouth sometimes is honestly really good. 

I desperately want to know more about the Biker Boy, everything or anything about him at all, but I can be patient :3 

Thank you for all your hard work, you've been doing amazing and I can't wait to see more!

Tried this out of curiosity and I honestly liked it a lot, the creep factor was pretty off the charts considering the game didn't have a menu screen or even credits when you hit the ending you were going for, it automatically booted you off of the game and I think that's pretty chilling.

I am also incredibly curious about Ted and the things that make him, him. 

The fact that he dislikes the killing of birds specifically and refers to himself in the third person, along with the obvious bandages on his face. 

I'm unsure if you meant it so much, but the stock photos of a grocery store/back of a butcher's counter/freezer gave the whole feel of the place a kind of dazedly sanitized feel to it, as if the player character really had been coming around to often that it all just blurs together for them, but there's nothing too off-putting or gory about it, just incredibly distant, like you really aren't supposed to be there for longer than your allotted time. 

(Speaking of the time, I love how you kept intermittently put in shots of a clock with the actualtime on it, because some game devs don't do that even with their short stuff and I appreciate that of you.) 

Hope to see more from you in the future, have an amazing week!
