IT IS SO MUCH FUN
Like seriously. I was taken a bit aback at the first announcement about new updates. New sprites and some CGs felt a bit uncanny valley to me (default Amicus), but after some time it felt nice and HAPS certainly did an amazing rework of characters.
I'm so invested in the narrative :^) New characters, politics and dynamics are so interesting to read. Not going to say anything about patreon-only content atm, but my god HOW INTERESTING IT IS! I NEED MORE!
I think Howly is really good at depicting eery horrors and stuff and there are certainly new themes to be explored here with Skippy, but worldbuilding. - greatest part for me. Sibling's history and shenanigans are so greatly depicted. Finding out new details about state of adastra, khemian technology and its superiority (how?) is fun.
Also, Meera (ig Other) talked about hooman, but is it suggesting that canon ending of Adastra is where Marco didn't submit to parents all willingly? oh boy, if there to be Adastra 2 after 8 years it is to be a rollercoaster..
Great stuff overall, pls continue! Hope this year for echo project would be a bliss :)
p.s. god i luv anthemics. khemian album is my fav of his works
