hello again!!

as i said in the other comment, renpy has a feature that reads lines out loud, but i did not test it. since all my games are made in renpy, all of them have that feature.

hello!!

i believe renpy has the 'self-voicing' feature which reads out loud the lines but i did not test it. you can activate it by pressing V.

and yes, the full game will be free, just as the rest of my games.

valeu!! 

mt legal o jogo por sinal!!

kkkkkkkkkkkkk mt engraçado, adorei o esqueleto (queria q tivesse pra baixar tb)

thank you 🫶

great job!! now i want the game is done by friday!!

ahhhhhhhhhhh thank you very much for your comment!!!

i wrote uts out of my own worries of feeling out of place and i'm really really glad people empathize with it!! dulari is an anxious little thing and seeing people validating her emotions feels relieving in a way. she's not alone!! :''))

kjnfksdnfs their friendships are lovely *loud sob* my kids......... (oh, i believe someone also commented on that route order! very fitting indeed)

awwwww i'm glad you liked them so much, really!! this story means very much to me! (lmaoo i also love the hate consensus on saruva) it was cathartic to let those feelings of worry out, but also to write a nice ending to it. i feel like writing can shape the way you see stuff in your life and uts definitely helped me be a bit nicer to myself AND helped me to find many wonderful people!! def a win-win situation!!

i'm very happy this story was a good experience to you!!!! it means the world to me!!!!!

thank you for your lovely comment (again) and see you soon!! ^_^

hhah, thank you!! dulari really looks pretty wherever i draw her :'')))

i'll be taking note of these questions!!! theyre've very interesting, thank you very much!!!

omg... kawaii-chan..

This game changed my Life. I have Now an Obssession with Yanderes. Yanette is my role Model. Yancie... ? Oh myGod. Imagine a Life Killing people and sleeping inside a Cage ! True Happiness! God Bless you etc !

heheh I'll be waiting!!

she was very nice :') and his brother is dark and edgy mostly because he wants to be the opposite of his father. he hates how flashy he is and tries his best to not look like him (but people do think he looks like saruva appearance-wise, and he hates it lol) 

onfsonsclbsclbsc I asked people if I should put a walkthrough and one of them said "yeah, I had to look in the code to find out" and I was like omg afkcavkachkackb I should have done this sooner lmaoo

thanks for your comment!! 

she suffered.. 

yeah.. it's growing!! 

heheheh ill be waiting 

aaa thank you!! jsfjsfjwfjsfj definitely!! 

and of course ❤️ thank you for playing it again!! I hope you enjoy Leon just as much as you liked Ezekiel 🥰🥰 (and LOL yeah I still snort when I look at it akdkakfosmdk) 

glad to be an inspiration <33 uwu

BIDIHDOH&HEOH THANK YOUUUU 🫶🫶

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OH MY GOD THATS SUCH A LONG AND THROUGHOUT REVIEW SDFGNSKDJGNSDKFJGN i dont even know what to say,,, you summed uts really well in the first paragraph!! i wouldn't say it better myself :')

sjgdkdkgfdkjhg thank you for your kind words about the artwork. I especially love the GUI yarrow made!! they're really talented!! (and i love the mood of vashti bunyan too aughgghgh)

EZEKIEL REALLY IS A BALL OF SUNSHINE AAAAAAAUGHGHGHGHGHGHG SOIGJSEOIJIOSJROSIEJRIOS and i'm glad that even if the jester is one of the antagonists (or the main antagonist) in the routes they don't feel completely evil. that was exactly what i was going for an i'm really proud it showed!! (AND THANKS FOR MENTIONING DULARI'S PARENTS !!!!!!!!!! THEYRE TRYING THEIR BEST :sob: )

"The characters, despite their differences, are all wonderful and likeable in their own ways (well, except Saruva)." DFIUGDGUIDSHIGUDHG YEAH LMAO

I really think it's beautiful how you described dulari's anxieties as "adult troubles" (with the quotation marks). Because as much as it really is part of her coming of age journey, it wouldn't be the first thing you think when you speak about adult troubles (i believe people would think of more practical things...? as in getting financial independence etc, but here it is about emotional maturity, emotional independence from one's desire to please or to fulfill general expectations).

"At the end, it really feels like Saruva's toxic, solitary obsession is pitted against the understanding love between Dulari and Ezekiel/Leon." *loud sobs crying*

this commentary on him is really interesting. one thing that i realized as i replayed his scene in the garden was how he looks 'in love' with vedanshi (dulari's mother) but how he quickly turns against her when she breaks up with him. all that talk earlier was a facade -- in the end, all he wanted was the attention, unwilling to actually sacrifice himself "for love" or to understand her feelings of guilt (since he doesnt feel any of it in the slightest). saruva is happy when he suggests karkarus (dulari's father) is jealous of them. he tries to make vedanshi feel guilty when she wants to break up with him, mentioning his late spouse as a 'barrier' that he finally overcame. nothing matters to him if it doesn't serve him. he's egoistic that way. (insane...)

"It's a powerful statement about growing up, and a lesson that is useful to many - that growing up is about accepting harsh realities, showing gratitude for your blessings, and spreading good in the world however you can, even if you know that the world won't change so easily." YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S EXACLTY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU SUMMED IT SO WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 AUGHGHG

the secret route really does wrap up all other routes pretty well. dulari goes through fun times, melancholic times, and after making peace with herself, she can finally reach her hand to help others feel the same. it's not to personal gain -- since she doesn't gain anything -- and not because of a duty -- since no one tells her to do it -- but because she's simply like that. She couldn't have it any other way. She just can't make herself go around life without caring, and while this made her overthink many things through the routes, it's the thing that makes her reach out to iris and even remember their name and who they were.

i think most of the time we are taught either to accept reality as it is and let it be or to get angry at everything that is wrong. I think both instances are incomplete. the first one makes you numb, the second one burns you out and in the end both make you blind. you really don't need to pick only one -- you can be both. and to me, that's when real maturity comes in -- when you still have that discomfort with injustice, but you fight it softly, with the weapons you have, anywhere you find the opportunity. it's not about hating yourself for having privileges, nor feeling superior for that. not about being blind for injustice, nor getting angry at everything and everyone for it. it's 'do what you can' -- but do to it, you have to be in peace with yourself and your own vision of the world, i guess.

thanks again for the review!! <33 i'm really glad you liked!!

aahhhh this was wonderful!!! I really enjoyed it. the character art, the bgs, the music, they're all great! the story was really fun too, and the choices gave many interesting flavors to the scenes. 

claus wearing a tie was so adorable 🥺🥺🥺

the endings were really cool too!!! gorgeous work overall!!! congrats!! 

this was great!! I loved it

ahh, just finished playing the demo and this was very nice!! which fairy tale this is based on? I got curious when I saw the princes' outfits (they're great!!) 

I loved Alina and Pancake too, they're such nice pair!! she's also very beautiful and cute 🥺🥺

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THANK YOU CARROT!!! I'm honored!!!

Sher is very much the amalgamation of so many insecurities me as an ace experience in daily life, and I'm really glad she resonated with you!!! Expectations are a mess to deal with UGHHH T_______T

AND YES!!!!!!!!! HOW THEY BOTH THINK THE OTHER EXPECTS SOMETHING FROM THEM AND HOW THEY'RE BOTH SCARED BUT AT THE SAME TIME THEY'RE SO ALIKE BUT THEY DON'T KNOW IT AND AAHAHGHGUSGHDGUSHGSUIGSUGSSJENR it's so uughghghghgughuq!!!!! It's funnily ironic in a way... I hope to explore more about that dynamic as the story goes on!! 

Ahhh thank you <3333333 the idea was really to reminisce paintings (and story book illustrations). it has a reason behind it other than aesthetics, but that's a secret for now eheheh

Again, thanks for your lovely comment <33 hope to see you here when the rest of the game is out!! See you!!

oh!!!!!! i was waiting for it!!

i'm really glad you liked!!!!!!!!!!!!!! honestly your games on the ace experience inspired me to push a little further into exploring the problem of allonormativity in a more direct way. 

writing about societal problems without choosing a clear "side" is a struggle to make... so i often avoid writing it as a main plot. trying to defend something usually makes me detour from the reality of the characters -- what they really feel, their humanity, their core, rather than a scripted narrative only made to convince the reader of something. so i'm really happy it didn't happen here hehehe!! (and i really love duna, god.....)

heheh sher and shariar are just adorable. there are still many things for them to go through, and many things for them to question within and between themselves, so i guess there'll be even more for you to admire in them in the future.

thank you for your words!! see you around!!

aaaaaaaaaa thank you :''')) !!! your comment is so sweet!! i'll let them know of your encouraging words!! <33

i'm glad you enjoyed it so far!! thanks again!! ^^

omg I loved this game!! it is beautifully animated, softly told and the whole vibe of it is just so immersive!!! I really loved cali and maple... they make such a cute couple... and I'm really glad there is an android version!! (I played it on my phone and it worked pretty well!!) 

thank you for this game <3 it feels like a long and warm hug in a cold winter day. nice and comforting... I didn't even notice the time pass while playing it. thank you! thank you!
