I just finished the game at this very moment and I must admit I'm crying while writing this. Thank you so much for creating such a masterpiece - my emotions are simply overflowing right now. I'll leave the spoilers about that for the end, and I'll answer your questions, for now
Which bachelor you like the most? and why?
It's a very difficult question, actually... I felt attracted to both Reksa and Rama since t he very moment I saw them. Usually I can define my number one favorite easily in otome games, and logically it should be Reksa here - he's exactly my type of character, both personnality and physically. And I really loved him and his route beyond words, even more than expected! But, I also have a soft spot for disabled or mentally ill characters, and Rama is both, because of his wings and his mental state - I didn't know about that before meeting him in-game. As I said before, I loved Reksa and his route beyond words, but Rama's route just blew my mind. So... if I really have to choose between the two of them, I guess it would be Rama. (sorry Mitra, you're not my type haha!)
What makes you consider to play this game?
I was looking for otome games, and I directly noticed Reksa and Rama when stumbling upon this game. After seeing them, I wanted to know what is the game about, and the story seemed nice too, so I've just decided to play.
Overall, what do you think about this visual novel? and what element stands out the most? (art? story? character?)
I loved it. I loved every tiny bit of it. I did the three routes, with both bad and good endings when I managed to find both (I didn't get any bad for Mitra). Each route I did, I liked it even more than the previous one (Mitra - Reksa - Rama). What stands out the most... well, obviously, the characters, the pretty art, the engaging story... all of that is very good. But to be honest, if I had to pick ONE thing... I'd be back at Rama, again. Why? Because including a character like him is something... I don't think I've ever seen a character like him being included in the romance options of any dating sim ever. In some games you have characters with issues... but issues so heavy... this is my first time seeing that. So... for the originality, the boldness, and the amount of emotions it brings, including him is the best thing about the game in my opinion.
Do you have any question or constructive critiques? I will read all the comments and reply to them like I do in Lemmasoft.
Well, the game has some typos and weird phrasing sometimes so it would be good to check things like that even more often (well, I shouldn't say that since English isn't my language and my phrasing is often wrong too). But I think the one thing you should be really careful about are the sound effects. The falling sounds made me cringe every single times, because it was a very comical sound, in sometimes very serious scenes. Also, I've noticed that Tamara's sprite looks different (the art style) compared to the other characters, and it looks a bit weird because of that. It isn't too bothersome, but still weird. On the bright side, it was very nice to see a game use inspiration sources most people don't know about - it was very original thanks to that! You should kee making these kind of stories, and also using really nice characters like the ones from this game.
Last but not least, if I make another visual novel, will you consider buying it?
I tend to forget about kickstarters, unfortunately, but if I'm reminded of it, I'd be glad to help. The same way, I could totally buy a visual novel like this one! The only reason I didn't pay for this one is that I don't have the money right now, but I strongly consider paying at least 15$ once I'll get some money to spare, even if I finished the game.
Now, I want to tell a couple of things about the routes, that are a bit spoilery... so yeah... -----SPOILERS AHEAD-----
Both Reksa's and Rama's routes made me cry. In Reksa's, I had a bad feeling about giving him the bombs, so I did it first. I wanted to see the bad ending too, and since it was more plausible in my mind of this leading to a disaster, I tried that. His bad ending was heartbreaking. But then, I did the good one, and wow, somehow it was worse. The bad ending, well, at some point it gets obvious you got the bad one, so you KNOW the characters will die. But when Reksa died in the good one, it really made me panic - I didn't know if the game had more than one bad ending per character, so I really freaked out about getting another one. But at the same time, that battle was great, and what happened at the end only added to the awesome and powerful moment.
As for Rama's route... well, obviously the route is SAD AS HELL. One thing I did notice is that in both Reksa's and Mitra's routes, Tamara managed to get closer to them and to awaken their feelings long before the festival. It was fast and obvious with Mitra, slow and with a lot of denial with Reksa, but still there. In Rama's route, they weren't really that closer than in the other routes, until the moment Rama ran away and ended up talking about his past. I really like that touch - it's interesting to see how hard it is to break his shell. When he died in Mitra's route, I directly understood he was one of those characters who only can be saved in their own route, so I did Reksa second on purpose. I didn't want to deal with Rama dying after doing his own route once. As for his endings, the choice was obvious for wich one is good and wich one is bad, so I did the bad first too and wow, it was hellish, but at the same time VERY well done, in my opinion. Maybe one of the better scenes of the game - doing it from Rama's perspective, and showing him fall into the depts of madness was so horrible. But his good ending was as beautiful as his bad ending was horrible. It was a perfect conclusion, so warm and powerful - and the last CG was magnificent. It was long, painful, full of tears, but the fact they managed to reach happiness was heartwarming. The funny thing is I didn't learn from my mistakes - after what happens at the end of the battle in Reksa's route, I should have known it would be okay somehow... but no, I freaked out again, because with how tragic is the character, I was almost sure it couldn't end well!
I'm very sorry for the lenghty comment, I hope you had the patience to read it! What I want to say with that whole spoilery addendum is that you really played with my emotions all along. Usually I can predict quite well how things turn out in otome games, but not this one, except for Mitra's route. Mitra is a cute and great character, and his route is very good. I would have loved it in another game, I think, But the two other routes (and characters) were so awesome and perfect that they outshined poor Mitra.
Well, again, thank you for this game, and if you ever do another visual novel, I'd be delighted to play it!
