this was so so so incredibly cute i looooved how theres different music for all the different bits they fit so well oh my goodness there needs to be more of this………………
you caught me completely off guard with this. damn it's such a peaceful and nice story, especially given the fact that I myself am a bit afraid of spiders and I used to stomp on them if I saw them (now I don't, please don't curse me :)). thank you so much for this and I'm looking forward to read about the rest of Ona's adventures :)
Wow so peaceful, the music was great. A nice little story too. It is a lot of reading though, could be good to add a voiceover eventually.
This was so sweet, wholesome, and an awesome journey, I only wish it didn't end so soon! Really well done, the art style, writing, sounds and music all fit perfectly together.
From a technical perspective, this is an achievement! The onscreen storybook is responsive and web-friendly, using actual selectable text. It looks great and is easy to navigate.
The music is whimsical and fun, and it's impressive that there are so many different pieces of music for different sections of the story.
I was pleasantly surprised that there were selectable dialogue options beginning in Chapter 2! My main critique is that I think there should be a small dialogue choice almost right away, to establish to players/readers that there is an interactive component to the story.
I don't play many visual novels, but I enjoyed the time I spent with this wonderful package!
Edit: I almost forgot the drawings! The sketches on each page add a lot of character to the story, and they were all impressive!
I loved the music and the art was so GOOD
NOOOOOOO IT ENDED TOO SOON!!!!
This was very cute, and I understand why the story had to be cut off in the middle, but I need to know how this story ends!!! You've certainly left me wanting more
Super cute story accompanied by some beautiful art. This was just great!
