Your art is so pretty, just wow. All the character designs are amazing, and it's impressive that you managed to do all that work in just a couple weeks! The lantern mechanic is also a cool twist for a visual novel, and make choices interesting. Great job!

I'm really impressed how much you were able to accomplish in 15days! I had a lot of fun playing: the art was awesome, the music felt just right, and I really liked considering all the choices and how they might affect the lamp oil, that was a really cool mechanic! Great job!
Love it love it love it love it. 💚 Feels like a game made just for me: we've got bizarre rituals, oddball fae, Otherkin with unknowable motivations, incredibly stylish art, and a phenomenal soundtrack to boot. Perfection from start to finish--thank you for a wonderful evening's experience!
Wow, this was absolutely beautiful! The art, music, and writing all really came together to create a great experience. It's incredible that you created all of this in just 15 days. I was really sad to be done with this, I can't wait to see more of your work. Congratulations on creating such good work and happy Halloween!
Loved the intentional visuals in the intro such as the darkness all but in the light of the window and the shadow perfectly crossing the portrait. The silence of the intro along with wise woman's urgency brought about such wary feelings I had to wait a day before continuing. The thorough explanation of the objective and game mechanics were appreciated. Loved all the characters especially moch moch....the witch is RESPECTUALLY attractive. There were some good scares! The fake-out was super creepy. Gorgeous art. I enjoyed the different endings and just how nothing is made completely clear, there's still a mystery as to why the witch is there. Great game well done!
Wow, I'm so happy to hear that the game has provoked such strong emotions, your comment touches me sincerely. I'm very happy that you liked the game, and that the little details I've included made an impression on you, and that you enjoyed the experience! Thank you a lot, and thank again for your detailled comment, it really made my day to read it!
What an absolutely gorgeous game! The colors and textures on the backgrounds are stunning, as are the ways they interact with the witch (incredible moment!!) - not to mention how smoothly the limited variants work with the story. The characters along the way are charming and just the right amount of spooky, and all three endings felt strong. Incredibly impressive to do as a solo dev, especially with such a short turnaround. Congrats!!!
This is just a gorgeous experience all around. I felt some real dread as the oil dwindled and night fell. Super atmospheric game!
Wow, this is really well done! 👏
I love the art style, the music fits nicely with the tone of the game, the world lore and characters are really interesting, and the length feels just right - the game doesn't overstay its welcome.
The lantern mechanic is cool - simple but effective.
And you finished this game in only 2 weeks as a solo dev, with very little prior Ren'Py experience?
That's super impressive, so awesome job on everything! 🥳🎉
You are so inspiring! You did all that yourself?? Wowowow, I love your artstyle, your use of colour! The glowing trees! Your imaginative world/story! Impressive music on top of that! This was great, I was invested!
Wonderful artstyle! Short but well polished game. I got all three endings... but at what cost? TT-TT
