woah thank you so much!! i'm glad you enjoyed it and happy to hear all of that came across well. agreed on magical girl trauma. madoka magica was kind of formative for us as a child i think lol.
and yeah, we've mostly been thinking about what to do with chapter 2 but now that you've brought it up we def wanna work more on the dev side of it. we've been thinking about remaking it using more plain HTML than Twine macros so we can have more control, but we need to experiment because i don't know how annoying Twine is going to be about that. i don't think the game will ever have renpy vn style character dialogue portraits, but we do definitely want to add some sort of illustrations/visuals at some point featuring the characters.
thank you again for your comment. recently we've kind of gotten down on ourselves about Witness Link in comparison to other yurijam projects but this has helped boost our confidence again, especially since its coming from another awesome eroguro maker :3. it really does mean a lot!!
