Astonishing novel. I'm in love with your writing style, nuanced characters, and the way how much the MC's background matters in the novel, the way how Rael is an important character on his own. Art direction is brilliant, simply put.
I've read all your dev blogs, and damn. I've been trying to write a text for a VN for such a long while. But this can be SUCH a money sink. I sometimes feel like I need to be a billionaire to be able to afford all the art, music, and everything else. Not sure if my dreams will ever come true lol. I'm not even starting on the programming and the need to learn renpy.....
But that means I just fully understand how much of an accomplishment the release of your VN is. Congratulations, and keep up the great work.
Also Zuberi stole my damn heart. I can't have enough of this gentleman!
