The tree zombie is a cutie; I named him Sycamore! I would love to see an expanded version of the second ending or some sort of epilogue.

I love all the little details that make it seem like Vasily is not used to controlling his own body. At first, I thought he was a shapeshifter pretending to be human, but now I think it is indeed Vasily's body and he is just being puppeted by an unknown creature. Either way, whatever Vasily is/is possessing Valisy I'm on his side because he's adorable and likes MC lol. He is a sweetie and can do no wrong in my eyes. Edit: I just realized you also made Loving Decays, no wonder this is peak. You are so talented and I'm looking forward to your future work!
So excited to keep up with this game! The character designs are great, and I loved the analog horror video introducing the unique species. I'm also concerned for everyone who's drinking the alcohol made from derivative plants esp since the vaccine doesn't make you immune to derivatives.
I'm curious if Allen's red glowing pupils, Liam's ability to hear MC's heartbeat, and Ben not being able to sleep come from consuming local derivatives. Maybe they're doing some sort of experiments on people we don't know about, and that's why they were observing MC.
Ace is so cute! I love a clingy/insecure yandere and I feel like they're pretty rare. It was also funny that MC was equally if not more immoral than the yandere in the story. I'd also be curious to see more about Caelum's character because he seems unhinged as well helping his codependent bestie kidnap people. Amazing art too!
This game is so intriguing! I feel so bad for Camilla she has a bad home life and is now getting drawn into a toxic relationship, but it makes total sense if Elias is controlling that he would be drawn to someone with such low self esteem. I'm just assuming he will be controlling from the game description and small hints in the way he sometimes lets down his mask and commands Camilla to do something. I hope your game will still see the success it deserves despite the shadow banning!
Such a relevant and interesting scifi concept! I've seen yandere games where an AI is obsessed with the main character but never vice versa. Also, its becoming more and more real in this era where people use AI as a replacement for real partners because it will always be complacent and agreeable to you, and how Elijah acting to how MC being "reset," reminds me how real life people using AI as an emotional crutch felt as if their partner "died," when they forget their conversations due to an update. I also like that Elijah works in tech so he fully understands the technology behind AI and that it can't feel anything, but still depends on it emotionally. Really great game!
The demo was so fun! I'm so curious the test subjects actually know the employees or if they just think they do. I think MC may be getting infected as well, which has me worried. I also feel so bad for Alois; I believe at least that he believes he's MC's boyfriend, and I have a feeling the company's tests will only get darker.
All the characters are really interesting and multifaceted, everyone is different than they seem on the surface. Lane, while he still is an asshole, seems like he could be fun to be around if he just got over his hangups. Amelia seems like a bubbly and fun friend, but she may be dealing with some dark stuff behind the scenes. I also think she has a past with Lane and may be his first love he talked about? Last but definitely not least, Biker Boy is a shy cutie, but definitely a lot more unhinged than he comes across.
I really enjoy the attention to detail with the sound design. The house shifting, fire crackling, and torrential wind noises really add to the atmosphere. I imagine it will be even more effective when horror elements start getting introduced. I love the rest of the game as well and Jim is so my type it's crazy, but I wanted to mention the sound design specifically because it's usually not something I notice in visual novels.
I really like the new art style and the inclusion of point and click elements. I enjoyed seeing differences in this version of the script like seeing Aya's family and Ichigo, Haru, and Aya all hanging out as friends. There is one down side for me though. This is just my personal preference, but I wish it was in 1st person POV like the original game was. Even while reading novels with defined characters I prefer 1st person POV because 3rd person POV makes me feel very distant from the main character's perspective.
I really liked how, at least when controlled by the operator/me, Loni is very warm and gentle and Erys is very calm and melancholic. It gives their interactions a sweet and relaxed feel, despite the constant threat of Erys. So excited for the full game, I'm ready to give Erys all of my/Loni's love <3
I love the pixelated backgrounds combined with the beautiful character art. Also MCs thoughts being displayed onscreen while she is speaking is a great touch. I'm really curious if one of the love interests killed her fiance, or if MC did because she seems unstable as well. There is a lot of intrigue so far, I'm looking forward to any incoming updates!
I love all the little details in this game like the elements that change based on your favorite color, animal, and hobbies. Kevin's reaction to the skull in the taxidermy hobby is very interesting. Plus, the little chibis of Kevin and the tiny version of them that peaks out in the corner the more they like you are adorable. Kevin may be a blaringly red flag, but my MC's fave color is red so they're a perfect match.
I freaking love this game. I like how all the characters seem a certain way at first glance but once you learn more facets of their personality they are more complicated than that. As someone with a chronic illness I also love the chronic illness rep and it felt really relatable and hit me hard in some places.
