I love the visual of this game I feel that you took the time to make this look great and I see the effort! I like how the music tells where u are in the world or whats happening and it makes the game more enjoyable. The story it's nice a little bit clitche going about the witches but if felt the diaologes like things that real people would say which makes it great! It thing I got the best ending first and It made me sad when I tried to get a better ending and everything just was worse hahaha (kinda funny also).

I feel sorry for Cecil so u made a really good job about that (: Nice!

Beautiful game, It made me feel sad that there was no happy ending in any combination, but even with that, the story was nice, It made me feel empathic for the witch. Your art is very good! and the music fitted very well each scene. It leaved me with more questions than answers wich makes for an interesting world that you created.

I liked the expecience and the game feels very polished. Didn't felt like the theme mattered a lot in the story but I enjoyed playing it!

Good game!

Oh, what a lovely visual novel! Despite the story being so tragic...

The visuals are awesome, with the chalkboard look on everything! So charming! And some nice music selection for each section.

Great character designs - Ditte is my absolute favourite!

I thought it was well narrated as well - good descriptions of the scenes, and the way the events combine with eachother I felt was satisfying.

VERY tragic, but I don't mind that!

Solid entry, good job!

I love it

I liked the chalk drawing art style and the music was good. The story was interesting although I did get a bit frustrated after trying just about every combination I could think of and never getting a satisfying ending. Usually I made it as far as turn left / turn right and, well... no spoilers lol.

It was a little different to play a visual novel where I wasn't in the role of a particular character, just choosing the path of the narrative. Given the genre and tone, I thought your writing was good (I assume it was originally written in Portuguese and translated to English, so I wasn't too worried about the grammar). Nice job!

Thank you. I did make it in Portuguese first and translated it later. My focus here was on the art since I pretend to use it as a portfolio ^^

I loved the artstyle and music. Writing itself was mediocre at best, worst part about it was that narrative was very patronizing, it tried to needlessly explain everything as if player was clueless stump of wood with zero logical capabilities (just like those horrible hollywood movies)  - one of many examples: "Cecil knew that her red eyes could tell her real nature" coupled with "That red-eyed woman in the forest hut" where we, players already can see she has red eyes and can put 2 and 2 together ourselves and figure out that her eyes has to do something with her being labeled as witch - just made me frown from frustration. 

Since this was your first game, i wish you the best and keep an eye out for needless explanations in the future since by doing that u're giving away big part of mistery that keeps the player/reader engaged. 

Excelente!
