OMG WHAT A WONDERFUL AND LOVELY COMMENT HELP??? You have got me in tears here ππ
Thank you so so much for playing the game and for taking all this time to write up your thoughts! I can't even put into words how much it means to me to hear things like this and how people relate to or connect to the chars π₯Ί Also I have to say that a lot of your general observations about the chars and their feels / motivations are pretty spot on teehee π€ So that all made me really tickled to read. I'M GLAD YOU LIKE GENZOU/IGGY?? They hold such a soft and sweet spot in my heart and just make me so happy in general, so it turns me into goo hearing that others like them, too. As for the happy ending, I will just say that there IS light at the end of the tunnel for all of this, and also that your choices have a major impact on Iggy's final Decision™ sooooOOOOooooo... I only hope that I can live up to your expectations DLKAFJSDLKF
I'm glad you like the story and writing!!! Some of your questions about wonderland will def come up in Arc 5. I think in general Arc 5 will have a lot of answers. I hope, at least LOL I've never been a huge fan of having absolutely every little thing perfectly tied up at the end concrete solid locked up tight as I love allowing some room for thoughts and interpretations, but there will definitely be some deep dives into the core questions behind the world and chars π€
"I did want to ask if you would be comfortable sharing your writing process for developing both characters and plots/story concepts." --> Oh gosh! Ummmm,,, I definitely don't mind at all! I feel like my process is simultaneously unremarkable while at the same time overly complicated LOL I don't know how to describe it really. Mostly in that I tend to just let ideas simmer for long periods of time developing in my head before I even decide to do anything with them. Also a huge number of inspirations go into them, particularly music-wise. I talked a little bit about some of it in an interview I did a few months ago, but I can also look into writing something more in-depth as a devlog at some point???
"I apologize for writing an entire essay, but I really like your game!" --> DON'T APOLOGIZE, I LOVE THIS SO MUCHHHHHHH. I've read your comment at least 5 times already because it made me smile so much. I just really love hearing thoughts from people and I can't thank you enough for sharing your lovely words! π₯Ίπ
Thank you again so much! And I'm always down to answering any questions you may have! This really brightened my day!!! π₯°
