Congratulations for everyone involved in curating this experience for everybody. And a big thank you with much love :). 

Thank you, love that you share that experience as well! What it means to me is something I wish to convey, as well.

I would not normally say this, but it is indeed a part of the design! No mistake of the version at all. They all intentionally lead to the same dialogue. I appreciate the commentary on the art and music :). 

Beautiful!

PS! I watched this game on the stream for IDGA again. It was very fun, lol. One comment I want to make, is that I enjoy the use of cinematic angles in certain shots for the backgrounds. The ones that blend reality with the visuals of the game itself. I also enjoy the "distortion" of the shots themselves beyond the angles, that give the backgrounds a certain "3D" shape. A certain meta feeling is added to it with that, I think!

thank you! Much appreciated. That is certainly something I wanted to focus on. 

Ah sorry, I meant the rating for the jam. Not the review. Apologies. 

My playthrough of the game is done 👍 ! Put the review out as well. 

Hello. Would it be possible for you to share the instructions on how to play the game in English ? Thank you.

I adore this! Very beautiful prose and the graphics are beautiful, as well. It speaks and represents the horrors of youth, eastern or "non-western" Youth I would say, in many ways that really do speak to you when reading it!

I have yet to play this game for the rating period of the Asylum Jam, but your art in the screenshots is really interesting! The paint strokes and blur of the backgrounds remind me of Ryukishi07’s! 

Hello! I started rating the games for this jam about yesterday. I only got through some, but I would love to rate your game :). 

Really beautiful! Adore this as a short experience.

Disclaimer in case this is (hopefully not) mistaken for spam lol. This game is indeed about queer themes and I am also queer lol.  I am indeed not a bot. Promise. 

This was lovely! Impeccable art. 

Certainly. The main character is transgender, and the asylum plot for the game is made for that in mind. The pairing is in F/F.

Future updates may also clarify this position, though I may also opt for the way it is currently represented. 

PS, it passed my mind to put disclosures within the game itself (though the page has them.) I will put them there within 24 hours, but this is a disclosure to say that the 1.1 version of the game will indeed have them. 

Wonderful stuff. Big thank you for sharing.  

Thank you ⭐️! 

This is truly beautiful. Very resonating. 

Thank you for the playthrough and comment. I hope you enjoy your future playthrough if you get to it, as well :). 

I would rather work with those who have had experience in at least one game prior on Itch.io.

Hello, 

I am a hobbyist 2D Artist in character art as well as background art looking for a team. I have experience working on art for my own visual novels and have a Twitter where my sketches and character art can be seen. My visual novels with my art work can be seen in my Itchio profile as well.

I am also a composer for my visual novels and an example for my work can be seen below, where I also specialize in horror/ambient tracks.

One matter I would suggest is a more unique font as well as proper capitalization. I think it would make good difference. Good fun eitherway. 

Good stats for six months. Keep it up. 

Not bad at all and I am very fortunate for this year after almost a year on Itch, but I must say that I sort of wish for more comments on my works and feedback as well. 

CTR looks good. 

Fun game. Nice art as well.

Makes sense! I have failed in considering that factor, so my apologies. Please feel no pressure to do it. 

Nonetheless, I look forward to complete this and see any future works of yours. 

This has caught my eye immediately. I adore the visuals of the cover and the additions within the book itself. Would it be possible to request an epub version of this story? 

Wonderful you caught onto that small inclusion :)!  

Stunning! I enjoy the prose here, deeply. It reminds me of an enduring theme behind Frost's "Road Not Taken," with some lasting angst behind each choice in one's life--and the energy we put in it all. 

Wonderful flash fiction.

I love the colors and atmosphere here! Maybe an opinion more than anything, so please take it with a grain of salt, but I feel like an alternate cover could enhance and speak of the atmosphere a bit more? Something with tense air like the first image in this showcase.

Regardless, fun experience and game!

Stunning. The music is quite wonderful, too. I am glad it has somewhere to be listened to!

Thank you! Definitely feels weird in that way to me as well, haha.

아름답다! Love it.
