Really fun read! Very cute and cool.

I am glad you did not go the coward's route, this is very good. LOVE the crazy expressions.

Very useful and very true! Good art

Excellent art style. Very intriguing use of darkness, keeps drawing reader in.

Love the art style. Very cute. That ending........................................................

The letter is very hitting. Great advice.

Exceptional art style, really striking.

Holy shit that situation sucks ass. Cool art style!

Sick, love it.

Very nice! Cute art style!

So even SFW games can get randomly shadowbanned from the store for absolutely no reason? What a disaster. It gives me so much confidence that Itch io and its mods will be really careful and reasonable and helpful when it comes to "auditing" the nsfw games. What a joke.

https://itch.io/takedowns/655516 At this link, you specifically say "If you plan to collect money for your content, then you must adhere to the acceptable use policy of all respective payment processors that your account utilizes."

Any opinions of the specific game "Max the Elf" are irrelevant; Payment processors are currently saying that ALL nsfw products are not allowed, not just those fitting the guidelines you stated in there.

Therefore, doesn't that mean that a creator of an NSFW product will not be able to collect money for their content?

Are you saying that you are not following this policy, or that you are picking and choosing who is affected? This requires clarification.

This is a lie, and affected people are already directly contacting Paypal , Visa, and Mastercard to refund them for the products they paid for but no longer own, and this will continue.

DAMN good work! DAMN good! Excellent art! ESPECIALLY that Sol Page. Great multimedia.

AMAZING comci! Such an amazing art style! Really really really great and cool, nice twista t end. Keep it up!

Damn.

I can't believe no one else has commented on this.

Damn.

This hits really hard.

Damn.

I could write an essay on this thing.

Damn.

My personal interpretation was the feeling of someone becoming a better version of themselves, which comes with obvious benefits, but at the same time, the death of that "true" self with all its flaws which feels so cruel to that flawed self......it wasn't as likeable or reliable or nice or soft, but it wanted love too. Doesn't it deserve to be loved despite all its flaws, instead of just being more likeable and easier to enjoy?

Damn. Really excellent. I stared at the last page through the entire song.

You aced it perfectly well. Precise.

Very striking imagery. Very effective. Very memorable.

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed!

<:) Thank you so much.

Thank yu!

Thanik you so much!

:) Thank you so much for this comment, I appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed!!

Just checking in, I like all the updates you've been doing! Good progress and good work!

Hello all, and thank you for playing my game. I worked on and off for two years, and though it may not seem like much, it was the result of me learning my own path through Unity. So many hours of tutorial videos and scouring through help request threads and mashing three completely seperate systems together to make a unique thing even with my limited coding knowledge. It has been quite the experience.

I am sorry that there is an excessive amount of bugs, glitches, and technical shortcomings. Though I spent several months QAing and also had super-awesome fantastic folks QA-ing for me as well, I guess the game was too spaghetti-code to really be reliable. All sorts of issues that I had not seen before coming outta nowhere, and my own shortsightedness with basic technical requirements.

My IRL stuff has unfortunately demanded all of my time for several months now, and this may continue for a while. I am not sure when I will be able to fix up this stuff.

I truly truly truly appreciate everyone wanting to play my game, and I am very very very sorry that I am not able to help some of you play the game.

My next game will likely be much more simple as a 2d point and click. I hope you'll enjoy it when it comes out.

Thank you.

Hi, thank you for letting me know. As of right now, no, but I will see what I can do. Thank you for trying to play.

Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear that. I have not encountered those bugs, so I do not know why that is happening. I will look into it. I will also try to implement a save/load system. I have worked with a save system before, but since I am smashing together various modules that were not made with the intent of working with each other, it takes some more time and checking up. When I have time, I will try to put it in. Thank you. I am very sorry that the game is stopping you from playing it. If you plan to play it again, I believe you can hold the spacebar to rapidly skip through dialogue. Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience and I really appreciate you playing this game.

This is a demo for what is now a full game over here: https://chillworksdev.itch.io/the-lovely-estate

Try that and see if it works :)

Wonderful! My twitter is here: https://twitter.com/ChillworksDev and you can DM me so I can send the file to you in private. Thanks!

To the boy, it will always sound like death :)

WOW!!!!!!!! That is super flattering! Thank you so much! I have the blender file, if that is what you need? The heavy pixelation and angles is from a filter in the Unity program, the model itself is polygonal. Let me know what you need and I'll send it to you!

Hey there, sorry for the late response, just saw this! Huh, that is wild. I have not heard of these specific issues before. So when you get in front of a character and it says "E to talk", and you press E, nothing haappens? ALso, when you hit ESC, nothing happens?

Thank you! So glad you were creeped out and enjoyed.

Aw what a cute game! I got the Caretaker ending and I'll try to get the others too. It's so charming and feels very warm. Great Christmas game. Really lovely job!

I have won the kingdom and the carrot.

Having it run on the actual PSX emulator is pretty incredible. And hey you've been workin on this one for a while! Cool to see the improvements over time. Something that could be good is that in one player mode, you could give more health to the enemy so that it's more challenging. Cool!

Now THAT is 90's. Wow. That gets the 5/5 for the 90's rating for me.

Interesting aesthetic! I like the idea of the game. I was trying to get closer to the anomaly, and then I got a game over. Do you win by reaching the anomaly? And how do you tell if you're going to lose?

Is the game able to be played in windows? Or am I doing something wrong?

This game. Is so fascinating to me. I genuinely cannot take my eyes away. The fact that it can play movies and music and all these little things to do with it is really really fascinating. This is a very interesting game and I like the work you put into it.
