i always head into a skyshard game knowing the story and visuals will blow me away, and once again, i have been blessed by this experience. i want to say the introduction scene with the eclipse gave me the chills – so well written, SO compelling, and the almost hypnotic spin of the eclipse in conjunction with the haunting music in the back combines into one of the best introduction scenes to a game i’ve read. shhh… don’t tell anyone else, but i think you have one of the best writing styles of velox! that’s not to say your art isn’t good either, but i always get the sense you’ve put a lot of work into honing and refining your writing, and i eat it up every single time.
admittedlyyy i did get a little lost along the way for the story, but that’s what the post-mortem is for! i always enjoy reading yours because they provide good insight into your thought process and clears it up a little for me, haha. heartsync’s comment about how the game is about how grief affects you is something i’m seconding! there’s an obsessive undercurrent to their relationship, despite how casual it seems to be set up at first. the body horror was unexpected but not unwelcome, and i honestly think it was done very well – i was a bit spooked! for now, i just want to sit with the atmosphere of this for a little longer.
