Absolutely amazing game. After I finished Loner Dog I remember viscerally wanting more of the characters, so it's super exciting to see another game set in the same universe. Getting see the shit Argo mentioned Xelia did was awesome.
Every aspect of this game is impeccably done. The music sets the tone perfectly, and I like seeing the 3d models used in a visual novel context. I also like how you used the Loner Dog portraits along with them. Despite how different a lot of the art is it fits together very cohesively!
Being a brown trans anarchist, this story hit me like a truck. The monologue about sentimentalism being the death of you is gonna be burned into my brain for a while now. There can be no compassion or compromise given to the people that want us dead. Xelia could rant for hours more or let Mariette beg forever, but there's no other way the story can end. I also find the ranting nature of Xelia's dialogue incredibly relatable. I think if I ever had a conversation with somebody like Mariette, I don't think I'd be able to do anything other than rant and yell at them lol. Shit makes me wanna yell about my politics more in my art. The story has also given me a million new questions and head cannons about the greater world.
One technical issue u might already know about is that there are two sections where the music cuts out in the middle of the scenes. Definitely not immersion breaking or anything but I figured I should say something.
Keep up the good work! Love seeing everything you put out!
