Viewing post in Shelter (Furry Visual Novel) comments

I've been waiting a while to ask this, but decided to wait until the end of the 1irst rout incase it was explained, and seeing as it wasn't... "n_n Is this world based in the same 1ne as the "INU" universe from the comic series on Furaffinity? :/ Monsters are similar, magick's identical, species list, all that good stuff is the same. Or perhaps did the concept for Shelter simply spring from that comic?

I could rant about how great Shelter is after the 1irst ending, but I'm not about to flood the comment section UwU Xou're best boy Raus! >_</ As a writer, an artist, the works! Shelter is arguably the BEST VN on itch.io! Much love! Awoo~!

Haha thanks mate! I had this magic/species system thought up a while back, and it was prepared with a generic fantasy world in mind. When I was making INU, I thought that maybe it was a good opportunity to try it in action there, so I could see how it works before get to use it in another project. I had to make some adjustments since INU was a videogame world, but it was super fun to use there :D

Its use in Shelter is much closer to its initial intended environment. Magic is real there, and it's a part of the World's natural laws, and that comes with so many fantastic consequences.

In short, the worlds of INU and Shelter may have shared elements, but they aren't based off each other.

Thankx for the clarification! I was a little worried that a buncha plays became stuck in the game through a virus that rendered them catatonic, got thier memories all mixed up, and that non of this was real "^_^ would have been a great twist, but with Burry's tragic backstory, I think all our hearts have taken enough of a beating, so I'm glad that beating came rather in the form of a knot~ :p

Btw, xou had another comic that was abandoned, "Sheep Theft", and after xou finally revealed Luke's face, I couldn't help but notice the similarities between Luke and Rick from the comic :3 I was sad to see that comic cut off before we got the knot, but after receiving Burry's... UwU #satisfied~

Thank xou for all xour hard work Raus <3 I seriously can't praise xour work enough, and am excited to see what xou have planned with Rune!
