kfklsfls;dksl;kf thank you so much for the wonderful review, i'm FLOORED with how deep you went with your analysis (pretty much spot on about everything, too) 🥺💕💕💕
(Just for the record, this game happens between the fourth and fifth flashback.)
[MORE SPOILERS]
Just like you said, the story in Quaint is shown from Q's point of view, so you can only see the front T puts on to hide his real feelings. And to be fair, I first wrote their relationship to be a little toxic and manipulative as a sort of counter-balance to Q's relationship with Milo.
But while working on the game i started exploring T's character a little bit more and that made me wonder why he'd treat Q like that. (i didn't like the idea that he was just cruel for the sake of it) And by the time part two of Quaint came out, the image of T in the game and the T in my head were very, VERY different lol. 😅 So with this game, I wanted to show the situation from T's perspective to maybe give his character a little more nuance. (though whether or not that justifies his actions, i'll leave to the player's judgment ^^)
Thank you again for playing, I'm delighted that you enjoyed it 🥰
