Always love when indie VNs go for that classic novel-esque style of UI over the dialogue boxes!
I do wonder how much psychology history you guys had to look up in order to sell McCarthy's character and the time period, it's really grounded and I was surprised at how fast time went by when I realized I finished it. Just now.
Fantastic job and especially impressive for a first-time developer team! Best of luck with the rest, I'll be waiting for it!
