Oh my gossshhhhHHHHH THANK YOU, THIS IS TOO SWEET OF A COMMENT?? 😭💕 I'm so happy you would take the time to not only play the game but also write up all your thoughts like this and let me know (and also just that you loved the game so much alsdkjafksdl). It means so much to me, especially as such a small creator 🙏💕

I'm really glad you could relate to Iggy so much. A ton of Iggy is inspired by myself and a lot of my own struggles and issues and quirks, so hearing that others are able to relate and understand a lot of what he's going through means so much (and makes me feel perhaps a little less alone, too 💦). In a lot of ways, I feel like this game ended up becoming,,,, some sort of, idk, way for me to work through a lot of my own built-up Stuff™, so it feels quite personal in a way. A story I want to share with others who might also be able to take something away from it or feel a sort of resonance with it ig. And also I just hope people will like the chars because I love them so so much ALDKFJASLDKF

I am really happy you like Genzou also. With all the characters I really wanted to make them feel... I don't know... normal? Human? So they all have their bad things they've done (or are doing) and they all have their good things and not a single one of them could really be called right or wrong. So yeah he very much has his (very) large flaws (that he needs to face and answer to and work through) but I love him still and I'm glad when others can love him too dkafjldskaf Particularly since his scenes with Iggy were some of the most cathartic for me to write,,, 🥺💦

"Why making him suffering like thattttttt please just give him a rest ToT" --> LMAO IT'S TRUE I don't even think I really realized myself just how much I've put him through. He suffers quite the brunt of it throughout the game, I feel 💦

"Yeah you know what let the man get a bit crazy it won't matter in the next timeline and he won't remember it anway" --> LOL OK THIS MADE ME LAUGH A LOT.

Enjoyed your comments about all the other chars, too. I really love all of them so much... I hope that people will enjoy seeing all the resolutions in Arc 5 and they will be satisfying. Arc 5 is really turning into a beast, I must admit, and it will probably be released in 2 parts because of it (it's literally looking like it will be double the size of all the other arcs). I really just want to make sure I end this story well and it lives up to everything that came before it and all t he characters' stories! 😭

At any rate, thank you again SO MUCH for this lovely comment! I really enjoyed hearing all of your thoughts—and I'm ecstatic that you loved the game and chars so much!! I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to let me know!! 🥰💕

Taking adavantage of the fact that I already commented here to comment about arc 5 part 1 now (obviously SPOILERS FOR ARC 5 PART 1 HERE)

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS SO GOOD

THE EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTER ??? THE HURT/COMFORT ??? GIDGET FINALLY ACCEPTING THEMSELF ???

Loved loved loved the character developpement !

The more the game goes on the more I relate to Iggy hahahahahahaha... haha... ha...

I also relate a bit more to Gidget in some way... I don't feel too bad about it. It makes me sad they rejected their own identity so much tho :( And becomes not who THEY wants to be, but who ""she"" is expected to be (especially by their mother), but then when they finally accepted themself... It felt so good honestly, like me when I finally found who I was in terms of gender and that... I love their character developpement. And their new design is cool too ! And they also went WAYYYYY higher in my esteem now. Won't forgive old/fake Gidget easily, but the new/real Gidget ? Love them.

You just unlocked a childhood memory by mentionning Charlotte's Web, which I knew as "Le Petit Monde de Charlotte" (so the name of the Frech adaptation) because little me didn't know English like I do now hehe. I remember crying in front of the film adaptation when Charlotte died

I took notes of some (a lot) of my reactions while playing because I wanted to make a long ass comment again so have fun reading all this lol :

-WHY IS THERE AN OPTION TO SLAP GENZOU INSTEAD OF HUGGING HIM WHEN HE OBVIOUSLY NEEDS COMFORT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

- Iggy taking care of Genzou will live rent free in my heart FOREVER- AND THEN THE MOMENT WHERE YOU CAN STAY WITH HIM WHEN HE FALLS ASLEEP AND HE PUTS HIS HAND ON IGGY'S ANKLE HELLOOOOOOO ? WHO ALLOWED YOU TO MAKE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SCENE ToT (not complaining tho-)

- GENZOU TELLING IGGY IT'S NOT HIS FAULT HE'S IMPORTANT AND PEOPLE CARE ABOUT HIM AHHHHHHHHHH

- Genzou saving Iggy from a monster with tentacles HM IT DOES REMIND ME OF A CERTAIN GAME AHEM our fantastic Wonderland AHEM

- Genzou is so stupidly in love with Iggy damn

- THE MOMENT WHERE YOU CAN HUG HIM AND THE AFTERMATH OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD *smashes head into a wall so hard you can see my brain inside my skull*

- Genzou joking about the traumatic things that happens to them probably as a coping mechanism lol I feel you buddy

- Iggy : "Which Gidget awaits us now ?" - Gidget : "Yo guess what I'm a spider now"

- The- What- WHY ON EARTH ARE THERE IGGYS EVERYWHERE ??? Why are there ONLY IGGYS EVERYWHERE- Oh it's Gidget why am I not surprised

- Gidget is... different ? IS THAT A GOOD THING OR NOT- Oh they moved on apparently... I'M STILL SCARED

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DON'T NEED TO EAT ANYMORE BECAUSE YOU'RE "perfect" NOW ? WHAT THE HELL- ARE THOSE YELLOW EYES

- BAHAHAHAHA OKAY IGGY'S DISTRACTION WAS ACTUALLY FUNNY TO ME

- Genzou : "... No, don't fuck Iggy, he wouldn't like that" CKYJBDAVICUAWBC I LOVE HIM

- Gidget : "No one needs you! [blah blah blah bullshit]" NOW YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT IGGY LIKE THAT- Oh well they have gone even crazier now what a good time be alive for Iggy

- Oh Iggy's apologizing for the bad things he's done and all how nice- GIDGET FUCK YOU HE'S TRYING TO MAKE THINGS BETTER

- OH MY GOD CECIL DO SOMETHING PLEASE (*bip!* {Cecil just evolved from "cool side character ig" to "nice guy I like him" !} )

- NOOOOO CECIL JUST WHEN YOU WENT UP IN MY ESTEEM WHYYYYYYY

- Okay that actually almost made me cry, like the real you Gidget, you're cool so please don't try to change yourself again

ANNNNNNNNNNNNNND that's all I think ? Thank you so much for making this amazing game which is litteraly my fav horror video game of all times ? I AM SO IMPATIENT FOR PART 2 BUT DON'T RUSH YOURSELF WE'LL BE PATIENT

SORRY IT TOOK ME A BIT TO GET TO THIS I WAS HAVING A TIME ALKFJDLAKF 💦 hhhhhHHH THANK YOU SO MUCH THOUHGH omg,,,, this comment is cracking me up and making me smile so much 😭💕 I'M REALLY HAPPY YOU ENJOYED IT?? There were so many things I was worried and fretting about before the launch, so I'm ecstatic that people ended up liking it ahhh,,,

"And they also went WAYYYYY higher in my esteem now. Won't forgive old/fake Gidget easily, but the new/real Gidget ? Love them." --> LMAO NO FELT ALDKJAFDL I am just so happy to have finally been able to bring Gidget to this moment. Almost like a mirror of myself and a lot of the things I was able to finally figure out about myself. But yes,,, so many of those things,,, it's indeed very hard to get over 💦 Though in my heart and head, so much of that was not really Gidget but the way Wonderland had twisted Gidget. For instance they would never have done anything like what they did if they weren't in Wonderland. So that helps me reconcile it a bit, but I still have Very Strong Feelings about so much of what happened GOD.

"WHY IS THERE AN OPTION TO SLAP GENZOU" --> KDFAJDLKFJALD SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE ASKED ME THIS I AM SOBBING

"AND THEN THE MOMENT WHERE YOU CAN STAY WITH HIM WHEN HE FALLS ASLEEP AND HE PUTS HIS HAND ON IGGY'S ANKLE HELLOOOOOOO ?" --> I'M SO GLAD YOU ENJOYED THIS this is making me smile and I can't stop dalkfjasld 🥺💕

"HM IT DOES REMIND ME OF A CERTAIN GAME AHEM" --> LMAOOOOO yes,,,,,, I worked on OFW as I was actively thinking up some of my first story beats for Arc 5, and that felt like the perfect small thing to kind of tie the two together in a way, or foreshadow, or SOMETHING idk but I liked it. Particularly as in OFW you see from Genzou's POV (kinda) and in OW you see from Iggy's and I enjoyed that dichotomy adklfajd

"*smashes head into a wall so hard you can see my brain inside my skull*" --> HELP PLEASE DO NOT DIE ADLKJAFSLDKFJADA I-I must admit this is one of my fav scenes s-so I understand,,, 💦

"CKYJBDAVICUAWBC I LOVE HIM" --> LOL I'm glad you liked this line, this one gave me a little chuckle of feels while writing 🤭

"Okay that actually almost made me cry, like the real you Gidget, you're cool so please don't try to change yourself again" --> owowowowowo,,, I am glad,,,,, this part also squishes and hurts my heart quite a bit,,, I'm glad it could be emotional for others, too 🥺💕

" litteraly my fav horror video game of all times" --> HELPPPPPP THIS IS TOO MUCH LADKJFALDK YOU ARE GONNA MAKE ME CRY.

Thank you literally though ahhHHHHH this comment gave me such a smile and made me laugh a lot. Thank you so so much for playing and for writing up your entertaining commentary. AND THANK YOU FOR LOVING THE GAME AND THE CHARSSSSSSSSS 🥰💕

RISE AND SHINE MEL HAS PLAYED PART 5.15 OF OUR WONDERLAND (all in one day. because I am crazy of course)

TIME FOR MY EXCESSIVELY LONG COMMENT

So for the overall of the part :

I LOVED IT AS ALWAYS HEHEHE

I was impatient to see Orlam's part because like... The man was already completely crazy so like what could he have done that worse

SO MUCH, PAST ME. SO, SO MUCH THINGS.

Ngl I enjoyed the "chill" beginning... Except for the tomatoes. We hate the tomatoes. BUT THE FLUFF AT THE RABBITS' BASE THOUGH... I was like "*nom nom nom* fluff *nom nom* good soup" BUT WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS MAKING ME CHOOSE BETWEEN MY FRIENDS OR CHOOSE NEITHER TO STAY NEUTRAL YOU EVIL (I chose Genzou both times. With very little hesitation. I live for Genzou and Iggy's relationship)

The fight scenes were soooooo intense and I absolutely loved it- AND LIKE THE RABBITS SHRIEKS ???? OH MY GOD ???? I wouldn't exactly describe them as "terrifying" but.... they certainly bring some emotions in there...

AND JERRY

OH MY GOD JERRY

WHY WOULD YOU MAKE A CHARACTER LIKEABLE SO THAT I WOULD GROW ATTACHED TO THEM JUST TO MAKE THEM PROBABLY DIE JUST AFTERWARDS OMG

AND THE WAY HE CALLS IGGY "KIT" LIKE A YOUNGER BROTHER OR SOMETHING ARGH BLBL *begins to cry violently*

So uh yeah I grew attached to Jerry (what I did not expect considering I was until now painfully neutral about him even as I've played OFW) in not even a whole arc... Curse my rapid attachement to fictional characters... AND CURSE YOU FOR MAKING THEM DIE ToT (/lh /nbr)

Orlam... Was... Something...

Quite honestly I thought Orlam wouldn't make it to the end of the game... Twice... First time because I thought that he had lost it so much (and seriously I loved the vibe... somehow...) that like. It was impossible to bring him back to reason. But Genzou did prove otherwise... SECOND TIME BECAUSE I THOUGHT HE WOULD DIE- LIKE THE GUY DIDN'T HAVE A HEART ANYMORE AND YES WONDERLAND IS A MAGIC PLACE BUT STILL... But anyway he did survive haha

And then the cinematic towards the end... with Genzou and everything he says... THE WAY THE MUSIC EMPHATIZES ALL OF HIS WORDS AND ACTIONS (and how the music makes the atmosphere feel in all of the game honestly. Specifically for this part for some reason but really the music made me feel things more in a way it didn't in the other parts)... AND HOW HE HUGS ORLAM... AHHHHHHHHHH *SOBS. AGAIN. ANYWAY SOBS MORE*

And the cabin at the end THE FUCKING CABIN... THE CLIFFHANGER...

Once again I took some (too much) notes of my reactions and feelings and all while playing so sharing them here ! This time I also quoted a lot of things the characters said but oh well- :

- Beginning is so wholesome AWE THEY BOTH CARE FOR IGGY SO MUCH the hapiness won't last will it

- Iggy, blushing when he realizes all the hints he missed with Gidget and Genzou, thinking : Wait a minute there WAIT A GODDAMN MINUTE-

- "The feeling of security from being sandwiched between my friends" OMG I LOVE THIS GAME WHY CAN'T IT JUST BE HAPPY ToT- *Iggy starts talking about his wound in a metaphorical way* IGGY WHAT ARE YOU DOING THERE SPEAKING OF YOUR WOUND LIKE THAT I SAID BE HAPPY

- "It's [the castle] not that much farther" / "That's what I'm afraid of" *SOBS VIOLENTLY WHEN REMEMBERING ARC 3*

- Oh I'm asking myself what's that weird movement in the bushes *creepy tomato thingie appears* Oh no. OH HELL NAW NOT AGAIN BRO

- "The tomatoes come at us en masse" Oh how I love seeing expressions coming from my dear mother language French in English texts /srs

- DAYUM GENZOU FIGHTING THESE TOMATOES LIKE A REAL HERO THERE

- Oh hello there Jerry. Memories coming back from "Our Fantastic Wonderland" Iggy ? Noice. Oh and then there's Genzou I guess-

- "I'm not a good person, Iggs" *CRIES* YES GENZOU YOU AREN'T BUT YOU'RE TRYING TO BE BETTER RIGHT SO THAT MAKES YOU A BIT LESS OF A BAD PERSON *CONTINUES TO CRY DURING THE WHOLE ASS DIALOGUE*

- "When have I ever brought anything positive into anyone's life, huh" UH WHEN YOU ACCEPTED IGGY'S ASEXUALITY YOU STUPID ASS I CRIED BECAUSE OF THAT SCENE OKAY (I also almost cried because of what Iggy says afterwards (my asexual heart was so happy))

- "All the asexuals'll be all over me. Come and get your piping hot respect for sexual boundaries or something" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *screams more (/pos)* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

- "But all of a sudden I just. Really want to be close to him." // "My own little cocoon. *Our* own little cocoon" THESE TOO WILL END UP TOGETHER IN MY VERSION OF YOUR STORY AND NO ONE CAN DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT

- "I love you, Iggs." *slams head into a wall* FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *continues to slam head into a wall* HE FRICKING SAID IT OH MY GOD HE SAID IT YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEE *little happy dance in front of my computer*

- Piggyback rides expect it's rabbits haha funny

- "It's quiet. *Deathly* quiet" Now why would you make that choice of words PLEASE DON'T SAY IT'S FORESHADOWING FOR ANYONE DYING I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE-

- "Focus Iggy. Everything is fine. You're fine" Sir are you sure about that- Because I'm certainly not. And even if you are fine that probably won't last. Just saying that out of experience you know.

- *sees the walls covered in blood* OH FUCK NO ORLAM NO I KNOW YOU'RE INSANE BUT DAMN PLEASE NO I WAS EXPECTING IT BUT STILL. NO.

- "Wonderland didn't need to turn you into a monster. You already were one" OUCH. I mean I get why Orlam would say that considering how Genzou treated him but when we know Genzou as the one accepting Iggy- Ouch. That hurts man ToT

- *realizing what Orlam did to himself* Oh. OH SO HE REALLY COMPLETELY LOST IT THIS TIME. WOW. OKAY.

- "You were pathetic then. You're pathetic now. You wanna know why I despise you ? Because you're a pathetic excuse for a human being. (and all that while manically grining)" WOW ORLAM MY GUY I GET THAT YOU HATE GENZOU BUT UH MAYBE YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THAT FAR... pretty please with a cherry on top... :,D

- Why the fuck is Orlam's heart releasing acid now

- ORLAM WHY DO YOU HAVE A BUTCHER KNIFE WITH YOU NOW

- "I have an idea ! Let's play a game" NU-HUH (The music again though... *chef's kiss*)

- "God, this feels great !" Weren't you supposed to not feel anything anymore sir

- *The cinematic comes on screen* // Me : *cries* BOBLBKOKBL *more uncomprehensible blabbering through my tears* Snif snif that was some feelings

Annnnnnd that's all ! (Can I really said that considering the lenght of my comment) I honestly am in big denial that the next part is going to be the last... SNIF WHAT WILL I DO WITH MY LIFE WHEN THIS GAME WILL BE OVER (play more games and read more books to escape reality, obviously)

But uh what I mean by that is that I'm really attached to your game and that I love it more than any visual novel and horror games I've played in my life, because, as I said it in my original comment, this is definitly my fav horror game and visual novel. And that's why I will be very sad when it ends. But that's okay. It will live in my heart and soul forever. WITH THE TEARS AND RAW EMOTIONS IT CAUSED ME.

SO I'M EXCITED AND NOT EXCITED FOR THE NEXT PART !!! Once again take your time and do take care of yourself while finishing the game- Yes it is important but your own health is important too !

SO YEAH I THINK I'M DONE WITH THIS COMMENT NOW (1340 words... Oh well...)

Once again I'm impatiently waiting for the next part and keep up your amazing work !

DLKFJALSKDJFASDFADS SOBBING

ALSO APOLOGIES THIS REPLY TOOK A WHILE I'VE BEEN AWAY FROM MY COMPUTER ON A TRIP AND DIDN'T THINK I'D BE ABLE TO REPLY PROPERLY ON MY PHONE LOL

I always love your comments so much this literally gave me life GUHHHHHHH I'm glad you liked it??? I really enjoyed how this part turned out in general. I'm glad you enjoyed even some of the "downtime" moments!! Feels like this game in general doesn't get many of those besides maybe the arc openings so it was kinda nice to add in some quieter sweeter moments in amongst the INTENSE ACTION that apparently this part required LOL

AND HAHAHAHA I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKED JERRY. I honestly had no idea how people would respond to him (particularly worried about those who might not have played OFW and just been confused) but the response has been so positive it's made me so happy. I'm so glad that people like him despite him not even being in that much of it LKDJAFLKDS

LMAO YOU THOUGHT ORLAM WOULD DIE???? ok valid he does go really off the rails... GUH I'M GLAD YOU LIKE THE ANIMATIC PART I REALLY REALLY WANTED THIS MOMENT TO HAVE IMPACT. One of those things where you have the scene very viscerally in your mind and you already know the music you want to use but it needs to SET to the MUSIC in order to HAVE the IMPACT so you just have to make an entire animatic... sigh (this is basically the reason behind all the animatics in the game tbh). It just felt like this moment was a long-time coming with a lot of build-up throughout the whole game, so I really wanted to make sure it felt "right" and was adequately heavy enough hahaha.

KJFDLAKJFDA YOUR IN-GAME THOUGHTS ARE LITERALLY BRINGING TEARS TO MY EYES

"OMG I LOVE THIS GAME WHY CAN'T IT JUST BE HAPPY ToT" --> REAL I JUST WANT THEM TO BE HAPPY

"(I also almost cried because of what Iggy says afterwards (my asexual heart was so happy))" --> LKDJFALKDSJFALSKD I'M SO HAPPYYYYYY??? THIS SCENE BROKEN ME WHILE WRITING IT A LITTLE BIT

"*slams head into a wall* FUCK YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *continues to slam head into a wall* HE FRICKING SAID IT OH MY GOD HE SAID IT YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEE" --> CHOKING AND CRYINGGGGGGGGG I will admit going into this scene I was not expecting it to end like this but it just kinda happened as I was writing and felt so right after I was done lkajdfad

"WOW ORLAM MY GUY I GET THAT YOU HATE GENZOU BUT UH MAYBE YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THAT FAR... pretty please with a cherry on top... :,D" --> LDKJFALSKDFA HAHAHAHAHA it's because I wanted to make it a parallel to the speech Genzou gives Orlam in Arc 1 LMAOOO

"ORLAM WHY DO YOU HAVE A BUTCHER KNIFE WITH YOU NOW" --> when does he not, let's be real /sobbing in laughter

"WHAT WILL I DO WITH MY LIFE WHEN THIS GAME WILL BE OVER" --> LOLOL real tho I am somewhat in the same boat. Tho that's why I'll probably continue working on art and side games and remaster some stuff because I won't be able to let go of it lkajdfa

"But uh what I mean by that is that I'm really attached to your game and that I love it more than any visual novel and horror games I've played in my life, because, as I said it in my original comment, this is definitly my fav horror game and visual novel. " --> SOBBING THIS IS EXTREMELY SWEET AND I AM VERY TOUCHED AND WILL NOW CRY

Thank you so so so much!!!!! Both for playing and for all your hilarious and touching thoughts!! Literally made my whole day reading this and seeing all your reactions and thoughts about all the different scenes and lines and such (I almost never get such specific reactions so it really touched my heart owowowowowowwo). Also my heart is just squishing so much that you love the game and chars so much!! I really hope I'll be able to bring the game to a finish in a way that leaves everyone happy and satisfied ahhhhh!! I'm a little nervous LOL But I will do my best!! Thank you for all your support and love and wonderful words (all 1340 of them LKDJFALSDKJALSDKFJA)!!!!! 😭💕
