this is played-this-at-3am speak for "banger stuff, hell yeah" just to be clear

"but doctor, if i'm pagliacci, and you're a stress hallucination, then who's flying this trash compactor????"

Hell yeah. She really bit the fuck outta that hand

Whoa, hell yeah

A well put together game, especially for first time devs. You gave the relatively straightforward premise the time it needed to breath and develop a particular texture of misery. Good work!

Oh I liked this quite a bit! Lana's interior spiral is really compelling to read

made my day with this one thank yooou🙏

Really interesting structure! Getting to see both characters thoughts in tandem while making choices for both at the same time was a fun wrinkle

Hell yeah

glad you enjoyed!

This was quite nice! The aesthetic is lovely and consistent across every part of the production, and the story is solid. I had a good time!

Sprites are super cute and the whole thing looks very well put together, especially for someone without a lot of experience in ren'py dev. I wish my first jam game had turned out looking that good. Wishing you lots of luck turning it into a longer game!

Thank you so much for the kind words! being alive is weird and stressful enough without the added pain of trying to be 'normal' imo

I'm so glad to hear it resonated! i know its a bit of a sad story, but it was made with a lot of love

Thinking of all the talented artists in my program who transferred to nursing and were miserable because nursing is awful while reading this... a familiar kind of frustration. A good read!

Oh this was really lovely. Such a distinctive pair of weirdos. I'm rooting for them

This was really arresting, both in visuals and prose. There's such a vivid and uncomfortable specificity to April's thoughts and dreams that I caught myself holding my breath more than once while reading. She's a character I'll be turning over in my head for some time. 

I also want to shout out the ending. The understated, casual nature of the presentation makes it so so uncomfortable. I had to take a break from my list of jam games for the night just to spend more time thinking about it. Really impressive stuff

thank you for the kind words!!

that's fuckin right!!!!

This was simply an extremely fun little game. It lasts the perfect amount of time but honestly I could have read them bitching at each other all night

A very beautiful game... The Once and Future Lord Of Nothing is one of the Menhera Jam games I find myself thinking back on a lot, so I was excited to realize this was the same dev. Another singular work

This was quite fun! The particular kind of misery during the sex scenes (especially early on) is interesting to pick apart, and the sprites are very expressive and carry a lot of weight despite relatively few variations. Also, Florance's bizarro combination of offhanded clueless transphobia and puppy dog eyes ended up being way more charming than I was expecting. A good time!

This was quite interesting! The mix of models and 2d art is really striking, and the potential for dehumanization through rapid technological development for both the targets and developers of said tech was executed really well. Good work!

Thank you for the kind words! once the post-jam patch is out I hope to put together a postmortem covering inspirations and how we reached the game's aesthetic and such, including the fabulous ave mujica episode 11 lmao

Thank you for playing! overjoyed to hear that you had such a good experience with it

Thank you so much for the lovely words!!

The all-consuming severity of Julia's obsession is very interesting to read! Good luck with the final version!

This is lovely! Had me tearing up at the end, and the art and colorwork is really beautiful

Thank you for the kind words!! And that's good to know about the download 🙏

Simply a banger. Beautiful game

Very striking! Big Rachel fan over here

You're too kind... It did nearly kill us tho

thank you for the kind words! writing mean girls going through it is my passion

thank you thank you we put out whole heart into it

high praise... much appreciated 🙏

thank you for the kind words!

The particular texture of the mc's misery kept me interested even if I'm a little worn out on the isekai-with-a-twist genre. I'd read more!

Knew I was gonna have a good time when the music hit over the first screen

The presentation is great, especially the map and the light around the cursor. Really clever stuff!

This was a really lovely read. The characters are all charming oddballs and the art is so soft and cute. Really enjoyed my time with it!
