Great art, great music, charming story. Would very much recommend!

There is not a sequel planned, sorry

I wish I knew

SPOILERS FOR TWO OF THE ENDINGS

Thank you very much. There are many great VNs out there for you to try next, but I should say that, in my opinion, they're generally paced more slowly than Kill or Love. This is not to say that they are better or worse for that, but it's something to keep in mind. For example, Umineko, probably my favorite visual novel (or series of visual novels, I guess), is 80 hours long. Good luck getting through that in one sitting.

Each ending is as valid as you want it to be. There is no canon. As for that one ending, it came to me so effortlessly I can't properly tell you how it happened. Everything about it felt inevitable, after those two choices. The opposite ending, the one where everyone lives, was much harder for me to write. It was difficult to not make it cheesy or forced, especially with the little time I had (I didn't want it to drag on). It is so tonally different from the other endings, and from the rest of the story, too, but I think I handled it decently. Jury's still out on whether I made it cheesy or not, though.

Thank you, that means a lot to me - the points you mention are exactly the things I tried my hardest to do right

Happy birthday!

What a great demo! I especially liked the animations, but really, everything about this has a lot of charm and a metric ton of style. Very fun experience - would highly recommend

I felt I could add my own little twist to the yandere archetype, specifically regarding characters' motivation. Another reason I made it was to see how well my writing would be received by a wider audience, since before this I'd only shown it to my friends.

I'm glad you liked it! Regarding the thing that bothered you: it is never stated explicitly, but there are clues in the story of what the "secret" is. To me it felt more interesting and more tasteful to leave it at that. And although it isn't mentioned overtly later on, it does influence Grace's actions significantly.

I hope it makes more sense to you now

"A visual novel about obsession, loneliness, and, based on your choices, varying amounts of murder."

Jack, a man with no memory of his childhood, is stuck in a hospital following a near-fatal injury. His girlfriend, meanwhile, is being held captive.

To make matters worse, Jack's nurse is Anna, the woman who kidnapped his girlfriend and who put Jack in the hospital in the first place. Anna is obsessed with him to an unhealthy degree, and the answer to why lies somewhere in the past.

This short visual novel follows Jack as he makes desperate plans to save the girl dearest to him, and as he remembers how Anna tore through his life.

It's a free visual novel I've worked on for quite a while now. It's a real passion project of mine, and I'm happy to finally share it with others!

Sorry I didn't post here earlier (it's been out for 2 days)! I kind of only just found out you should do this.

Thank you for your time!

Yes, I definitely will make another VN! It's very, very early in production, but it's coming. Thank you for your support!

Thank you! Five hours is a bit much for me to watch haha, but I did watch some of it! I'm glad you liked it, and keep up the great work!

Thank you. This means more to me than you could know
