So. Really beautiful VN, loved the artworks, and the usage of NVL mode was awesome too. The setting was unique and clever as well. There's something eerie about the way these characters talk about choosing their faces, and the setting was especially solemn and desolate, given how they're all trapped in a bleak monochrome hell. Thing is? Honestly, I had no clue what was going on pretty much the whole time. Maybe it's a skill issue on my part, but it's not just that the English is kind of shaky, it's that the story is abstract as all hell. It's one thing to leave a lot unexplained, but there's practically no context to explain what they're doing in each scene, where they're going, why they're doing all the little things they're doing. Like, what are they looking for in the storeroom? What is the monster doing here? Who got their names in the end, and how? I get the general gist though, they're going on an adventure to get their names and things go wrong. The characters are explained well enough at least, if a bit straightforward. They have great sprites too! Very expressive. It was just a very difficult read overall, so it's hard to get invested into the story. I apologize because I feel like there was likely a lot that got lost in translation here. I also feel like I made all the incorrect decisions and got all the bad endings first so that bit's entirely on me, but it also feels like the VN cuts off abruptly in each of the endings, and in general it does tend to jump from scene to scene pretty quickly. Sorry, it probably reads better to a French speaker. Again, I really liked the art, so well done on that front.

Oh please don’t apologize ! In fact, thanks a lot for the feedback ! It’s very good to have pointers for when I do the actual 1.0.  Some elements *are* meant to be ambiguous but definitely not to that level of confusion haha. Thanks again !
