Spoilers ahead but I managed to keep it as vague as possible expect for the review part which is the second paragraph.
Not sure if this is just a problem on my end, but the first text to chapter one is a bright yellow & italic. 😭 I'm also not a fan of brightness so it was rather hard to read. However I had fit enough clues for the next part! But after the choice the whole text page begins to fade in and out? [this also goes for Kacey's introduction first choice] I tried restarting via exiting and reentering the website, so I think this may not just be my problem. I'm not an incredibly fast reader so it was kind of frustrating, plus I have a trigger to dark to light [and vice versa] flashing lights. And then after Nick's introduction there's not only the bright yellow italic font but it's paired up with the flashing. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, maybe it's intentional? Gosh, I'm so sorry for complaining about this. 😭😭😭 I just don't happen to be the fastest reader and I enjoy taking in small details, thought I'd bring it to the author because of how long it some of the text pages were.
I overall enjoyed the game though! Being or having a detective main character is one of my favorite things and someone / options having a sarcastic personality trait is a die-for. Not only that I'm absolutely in love with Kacey's energy. Her being neurodivergent and a POC such as myself is amazing, this also seems to also be my first time seeing mixed/biracial representation in a interactive fiction which I'm all in for and incredibly glad as a biracial myself! The team's responses to her are very relatable to a few of my own experiences between friends/peers. It brings out lots of personality in everyone and I can't wait for more. I'm looking forward to do all routes for the romance options :) !!
OMG! No you're absolutely right, those were coding errors on my part😭 They have since been fixed, thanks to you pointing them out to me. So, please don't apologize for complaining, you're actually helping me big time. And I greatly appreciate the fact that you tried to avoid spoilers 🙏🏾
Same! Sarcasm is my bread and butter, Tobias is like the male version of me. Though, I'd like to believe I'm a little nicer 😅 also, I'm so glad that you think so well of Kacey, she's an absolute sweetheart and would be over the moon to know that others think so highly of her.
And, I'm so glad you feel representated through this game. I'm a POC myself and neurodivergent, so it was always my intention to shine the spotlight on people like us. The underappreciated and unnoticed party, I mean the MC is entirely up to the player. But, the characters in the story are solely my own.
And, I intend to do much with this platform, in this particular game many social issues will also arise. Based on racism, prejudice, xenophobia, homophobia etc. In fact, there's a specific member of Team 1, who will have much insight into growing up in an area with little to no representation. Which will be heavy, but will shine a lot of light on their character.
But, I'm so glad that you've taken a liking to the game, despite my coding errors😭😅 and that the interactions between characters feel natural, and not robotic or rehearsed. So, thank you so much for your support, you're comment has really made my day! 💕💕
