I was expecting something really different, but am pleasantly surprised with the story. Super relatable. Tears were shed. I've found myself just like both characters at different times in my life. And it's true, it really does never leave you.
Very enjoyable short VN. I think i got the true ending in my first try tho, and after the encounter with the white rose i think i'll wait a bit to try for the bad endings haha. (I presume that it has to do with which roses you hear first? )
What a lovely game! I very much enjoyed it. The way it uses VN gameplay in its own was alone was fascinating enough, but the writing and especially the scene in the True End delighted me. I quite like how Marisol's self-loathing feels frustrating in that which-wire-do-I-cut-for-this-to-not-go-south-for-my-friend way but also very visceral and understandable.
Beautiful. I favor Violets, personally, but that being said: This is beautiful, tragic, heart-rending. I was waiting for them to kiss—but I suppose they may simply be friends, just ones with more in common than either would lead you to believe. Nihilism is one of my oldest companions, and we have a long-standing love-hate relationship, so this strikes a chord or two. Mellifluous and melodious, of course, but never quite so 'pure' as the emotions distilled by a White Rose. I've pierced others with verbal Gladioli, sadly, and received in kind, yet I know there's room to heal. Perhaps we'll each seek a balm (Aloe, anyone?) and grow stronger, branching out or setting down roots.
Sorry for mingling so many puns in there; hard habit to break, especially when you're as *entangled* as I am in them. Wishing you well, along with anyone else who's seen the bleakest side of life. Vegging isn't as fun when it's not voluntary.
This game was truly beautiful! The metaphor of roses being feelings, the true end, all of it was wonderful from start to finish. The artwork was stunning, and I was overall hooked throughout. A great game to play if you're looking for a game that addresses real issues with a heartwarming conclusion.

I loved this so much. As someone with bipolar disorder this hit home. Beautifully written!
this game is just lovely! the portrayal of mental health felt really real, and watching the story unfold was really engaging!
Def not what I expected, but this was really neat!

Both Marisol and Alex deserve a warm hug btw :D

It was interesting how this game talked about mental well being. Thanks for making this.
