This is the first time a VN on Itch.io moved me enough to leave a comment. What did you PUT in this to make it so overbearingly SAD ToT I cried three times while playing the extended demo.
The heartache and the pain I felt when Gabriel came back to life, only to not recognize his wife and believe she was dead was agonizing, I'm a big fan of the concept of recognizing someone in any lifetime and universe, and after a certain point I couldn't help but put myself and my beloved in Selene's and Gabriel's place. Even after all that happened, even if they despised me like Gabriel despise Selene, I'd still love them with my heart and soul.
I cannot make the choice to burn Gabriel's lyre and break something he made with such love for the life of me, that'd be way too cruel, you did an excellent job in making the player grow so empathetic of those characters.
I cannot wait to see what you cook for us next, I'm pretty sure I'll cry again.
