Some really good art and a nice little story. This deserves either a full game or a sequel!

thank you so much! maybe one day we'll figure out the details behind that case magnolia gave kamiya!

What style. Awesome x-files styled yuri slice, feels like a adaptation of a great animated series. I could listen to your characters trade barbs for hours. The art for this game is amazing. Everything about it feels right. Good stuff.

Developer

thank you so much! we really loved defining the relationship dynamics between the cast!

Gorgeous art and fantastically written dialogue! As soon as I saw the two female leads, my yuri brain started connecting the dots :D

The storyline felt very natural and I could easily connect with the characters despite not knowing a lot about them which is superb writing! I would like to see a continuation of this series with Kamiya and Jiya!

Great job on this VN! I greatly enjoyed reading it ^^

Developer

thank you so much! we're glad you enjoyed the yuri HAHA maybe some day we'll do a continuation!

I really enjoyed this story and the art style! I do love a good detective story!

Developer

thank you so much!

I've never been one for detective stories or mysteries, but I enjoyed this game!  The art is phenomenal, and the writing is solid. I do feel that there could have been a little more done with the story, as its plot does feel pretty simple.  That's just a nitpick, though, as the story does what it's trying to do quite well.  It's unfortunate that there isn't any audio, as it would have added to the experience, especially during the hiding section of the story.
In any case, great job to everyone who worked on this.

Developer

thank you for the feedback! we didn't have a composer on the team and ran out of time to try ourselves, but we're happy to hear you still enjoyed playing!

Beautiful game! I loved the character designs, they fit the leads so well, and the softer artwork for the ghosts!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! I’m so happy someone noticed the style change for the ghosts. ^_^ Couldn’t have done any of it without my friends.

the art was phenomenal, and i'm surprised y'all managed to get all of that (plus narrative) done in a week — y'all should be super proud of yourselves! i wish there was an audio component to go alongside the visuals (or maybe my browser just didn't play them for whatever reason), but with or without audio the experience was still really immersive. congrats !!

Developer

thank you so much! we didn't have a composer on the team and ran out of time to figure out our own sfx or bgm, but we're glad to hear you enjoyed nonetheless!

Xinyi - I really loved your sprite work it looks really good

Avyaan- The story very interesting, but I don't understand the message of this game

Don't get me wrong I really liked your writing, but the characters interaction felt a bit unnatural atleast for me 

The story is great and character design I loved very much

I hope more people play this game, because it's very good  

Great job to everyone who worked this game :)

Developer

thank you so much! xinyi and avyaan both worked super hard on all the pieces, absolutely would not have been able to make this without them!!
