I'll be honest, I was spending my time during my summer break playing any VN games both because I'm into them and wanted to see what ways I can implement and the capabilities and limitations of Renpy (Didn't know that we can code point and click gameplay till now lol) and because I'm really bored and try not to spend my energy since I'll be moving to a new place away from my family for 3rd year college.
I downloaded your game a few days ago and for some reason; I didn't play it immediately. Instead I downloaded and played more games after that, I guess the main reason is I'm a bit afraid of the themes life, death, and purgatory since while I have ideas based on them it is hard to tackle and I'm afraid of messing up myself.
And then finally, today I finally said to myself "fuck it", unzipped it, and play it. It is one of the most well made and thoughtful games that I've played, that's for sure. From the characters and their backgrounds, the story, the art, and I love the soundtrack. Gameplay has a good amount of difficulty and I've met almost no errors, only one but it's minor enough to not break the game.
After completing the game, it is breath-taking. Not enough to instantly start making games myself (since I'll be packing and moving to another place), but it is at this moment I'll think of ideas for the games I want to make in the future.
Long story short, great game, it inspired me, I'm looking forward to more games in the future.
