I really liked this one. I'm not normally into VNs, but this one was interesting enough both in story and in characterization that I want to see where it's going. Even though I tend to avoid anime VNs, I really enjoyed the art-style and I especially like the relationship between the two roommates. I do wish there was a little more gameplay, but I also understand that this is a novel AND a demo, and that there will be more in the future.
Overall, good job. The writing was really well-done, and I honestly can't wait to see the full game. I just hope there's more horror to it. :) This feels more like it's leading up to something horrific, but it cut us off right when things were really heating up. Keep it up!
The endings I got were a bit abrupt, but the fact that I was eager for more is pretty telling that the story (at least) is pretty well done. I do realize this is a demo, but something a little more like 'more to come in the full release' or something other than 'thanks for playing!' and then back to menu.
Other than the story being interesting, this plays like a pretty standard VN. Not that it's a bad thing, but it doesn't really stand out too much. I am eager to see where the story goes, and I hope there are more choices and endings in the main game.
Wow, really well done! The writing was great, the art was polished and the music fit very well. Also I noticed some VST instruments (probably from LABS??) that I use all the time so that was kind of cool haha. Well done again, interested to see what the ending will be.
Thank you I'm so happy you liked it :)
Very good story! Too bad it doesn't have an end yet, but I'll definitely play it once its done. I wonder, is there a path I missed where you can give whitney back her letter in this current version?
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! There is no way to return the letter but maybe I'll think about incorporating it at some point :)
