The presentation of this game is incredible! I love the character design, the UI design, and I loved the music and UI sound FX. The premise is so goddamn cool and unique, too. I really love this so much. I just have one critique that may not actually be an issue if you do build it out into a more full experience.
I am a BIG visual novel fan, but I must say, that the game is VERY exposition heavy right off the bat without something to pull the player through, imo. I started getting pretty impatient between after Seraphine was introduce, but before your partner was introduced. I think if perhaps I knew there was a full finished game or a trailer that showed me something that got me intrigued before I went in, I would have had more patience. I think maybe introducing the Nightmare concept early - maybe with the MC as a lucid dreamer not able to fight back first - and then jump forward to your current opening then. That really is my only criticism so far. The only other thing is I would have loved an option to adjust the sound levels once I actually started as the Nightmare SFX were a little too loud for me.
I REALLY REALLY loved this and would absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE to play a full VN game around this. I would absolutely pay money for this if you guys build this out into a full game.

Hi!! Thank you so much for playing our game and leaving a review! We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed it so much and you found the premise interesting <3
And thank you for your feedback! We had actually been discussing changes for the complete Act. 00 after upload because we did realize that. To be honest, I only did a single pass on the script for Act.00 when I first wrote it because I focused more in the script that followed and then I let it slide until there was no time to make a second pass before implementation haha... So yes! I agree that it needed a better pull at the beginning and for the first battle to start earlier. We just released a new, complete version of Act. 00, so we'd be super happy if you could check it too!
Thank you so so much again for your kind comments! We definitely want to keep working on this and plan to eventually release the VN as a full game <3
