Such a amazing romance! The whole team did a great job! The characters are very well written and felt grounded. The chemistry between Emy and Ayaka felt very believable.  I was really rooting for them!

Thank you for making this game!

My heart! This VN is just too sweet! I loved seeing how Ayaka and Emi grew closer throughout the story. Emi is an especially well realized character in this, and it was a real joy seeing her take steps to gain confidence. The sprites and CGs were also very well done. Great work!

I thought it's going to be scary, but it's actually very cute love story. Ayaka such a tsundere girl (●ˇ∀ˇ●) The arts are lovely, and the music is really nice, especially when Emily switched with Emi, it's very spooky~ Good job!

Well done on such a great story! I had a lovely time playing through it. The writing is wonderful and heartwarming at times but the demon comes across as genuinely threatening when it counts.

The music was particularly enjoyable and added to the emotional moments. It was also tense and scary at times!

I adored the cosy atmosphere in this story. The art was great for getting across the feel of the game. 

Thanks for making it!
