I love this update. I totally did not expect the timeloop at the end of the week, but this explains why Luck and Zack were behaving weird at the start of the game. This brings up so many more questions too and I’m just like, I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT ARGGGGGHHHHH. xD

I can’t wait to see what exactly Luck and Zack experienced in the previous loop(s?) that explains why they are so aggressive/distrusting towards Raymond. I assume there are two different realities based on what choice we made in the beginning, that is being worried for Zack or just leaving him alone in his room (referring to his crying or angry face when Raymond holds his hand in the museum).

Lewis’ room had a photo frame describing a black lizard that looks like him, and at first I didn’t think anything much of this piece of information. When I replayed the game to unlock Path D, I noticed Alice’s dialogue mentioning her brother being friends with a certain black lizard that looks like Lewis! I was so glad to coincidentally find the connection between Alice and Lewis :D I suspect that maybe Lewis’ father cheated on his family, though I am curious what explanation you will reveal ;)

Since Raymond and Jack looped back together, I wonder if Luck and Zack will have forgotten their memories of their previous loop, or if they will somehow work together with Raymond and Jack. Though I also suspect that Raymond and Jack will face animosity from everyone for being suspicious by knowing Layra’s name…

There is so much potential how this story could turn out due to the introduction of the timelooping and I am excited to see more content of your excellent storywriting! :3

Though I wonder, will you write the other Routes (Lewis, Arthur, Luck) first before releasing Chapter 2, or will you focus finishing Jack’s Route and Paths entirely, and then afterwards start on another Route?

Anyways, I hope your VN gains more attention it deserves and wish you lots of success and a nice day! :D

Oh lord, this update was not what I expected. I am so sad that Emily, Arthur and Lewis died, I liked those three characters the most so far T_T let’s hope they survive in the other routes xD I find it funny how the remaining characters I trust the least (Layra, Lotte, Luck) are still alive haha

The Vinegar (hehe) Cipher was an interesting puzzle… but also new LORE!!! I pasted the text into a decoder and noticed some mistakes, like “ztsef” being repeated, which messed up the rest of the message. There are still some words that are wrong even after removing the repeated “ztsef”. The random choice of words confused me at first, but I managed to figure out the hidden message behind these words in the end! :D

“no more rooks, no more bishops, no more knights, no more queen, no mo(re king)” “it’s the pawns arc revolution”

Just… what’s going on with that mansion? Who are the chess pieces representing? What is this revolution about? What do the gods have to do with anything here? How did Emily, Arthur and Lewis die? This all comes back to what Zack warned Raymond about before his death, we are underestimating the mansion… Just what did he know?

You have piqued my curiosity once again, good job Noble Shamrock! :D

Spoiler!

This game was sooo good! I love the protagonist so far and there is such a huge mystery behind everything and everyone. Jack is such a lovely guy, I hope nothing bad happens to him xD

What's up with Zack? Why does he and Luck seem to know Raymond? What did he do to make them so aware of him? Why did he get teary-eyed when Raymond held his hand? What's up with Raymond's family? What do the numbers have to do with everything?

Also, "Presa Por Conta Do Luto De Seu Filho" and "Preso Por Abandonar Os Que Ama"....... HMMMM??? *sussy eyes*

My theory is that everyone in the mansion died in the real world and must now repent for some sin they did, but how are they all connected and why are there so many people? Is it a coincidence that all of them are from the same place, and that they all died at the same time? But then again, Zack and Luck seem to know something about this mansion, so maybe my afterlife theory is wrong...?

One mystery after another and so many questions, I just can't wait for the next update to come out! Just what an amazing work, I hope you will keep this up!  :D
