This game is messy,  but I think it does a lot right. knowing the dev IRL definitely makes me a little biased but I think the game itself is already the best game I've played in the engine. Though I don't play too much. I think that the characters are more real than 99% of other games. And the fast paced back and forth humor really lands. I think if you don't like internet humor this game won't change your mind but if you can stomach it. Or in our case enjoy it, I think this game is actually really deep. It handles dark topics with surprising grace, and despite joking about it. Doesn't ever discredit the character's trauma or experience. It feels like it's a game that doesn't take itself too seriously but still manages to treat every character with a bunch of respect. 

Overall I really like the cast, I think they bounce off eachother super well. and I think despite the game sometimes lacking a cohesive surface plot to keep normal players engaged. It's one of the best examples of a ghost in the machine style meta horror I've seen in ages. I'll give it a 9/10. Only because I don't give 10s. If I did this would be it. It's got great cast chemistry, great music, better writing than just about all the competition, and an insane amount of effort.

Just the fact 99% of people are never ever gonna see the secret content like cut strings makes the remaining 1% feel like their in a super secret club. And it's nice. To be the only ones following a game that people write off as a joke. To find secrets by breaking the game and being rewarded for doing it. 

I love this game. It got me into the itch community as a whole and I think if I could give it a 6 star review I would. 

I would strangle him myself if he did.

Hope it gets the love it deserves. This is def gonna get big!

Sorry for starting a new thread just for this. But I found this game through QuasiDeificAlpaca and am loving it. The artstyle is really nice and it feels super unique. Keep it up.

Quasi rates, I'm going too. The artwork is sick and I love the fact we got a 中文版

I think the most important thing to consider is whether anything is really canon or not. it's not like Quasi's confirmed one canonical route. Chances are we're gonna see more routes come and they'll all be canon because none of this is real. This is a game about concepts, it's a game where you really shouldn't try to apply facts and logic to the meta aspects of the world. like, we have the world established by dialog and worldbuilding that clearly has a lot of work put into it. since every piece of throwaway dialog about some faroff place is consistent and doesn't contradict itself. It's very clear we've seen maybe 10% of the world so far. but the rest feels like it's really there. you know Ortna is xenophobic and kind of oppressive, or that Daultus is nicknamed the University Town because it's the home to a bunch of mage houses and run by a council of High Magi that operate like a supreme court instead of a regular lordship. or that Malbec is the nearest place to Rhun in the Northern Freelands. All of this is clear, though not told to you unless you talk to people  and put it together. But once you get to the meta stuff it gets all messy. since it's implied to be extremely conceptual and abstract, the world is a song run by a composer that seems to be some kind of high god. Which brings into question who the "Maiden of Holy Wars" worshipped in Rhun is. If they consider her the high god. but she's not the one ,entioned in the intro, are there multiples? or is it just that different cultures have different beliefs. how do we know ours is correct? 

In the end anything cut strings and meta related shouldn't be taken literally. It's hard to tell what is literal and what is conceptual beccause I highly  doubt we're literally revisiting the prologue to fight a floating mask named self. It's probably metaphorical. Or not. This game is friggin bonkers, we have french geese that praise you for existing  and references to Logan paul. there's a solid chance I'm overthinking this

i would commit vehicular manslaughter for Kaas. that tiny gremlin creature has earned it tenfold.

没事啊哥，慢慢的也好。你的身体是最重要的!

Well this aged poorly wwwww

这不是 skill issue 吗？ Quasi 哥，你需要 git gud.

I'll go first. I think the Conductor is probably some kind of high god or creator deity, and the Notes are the predecessor to people in Aeon. I also think Linne is likely some kind of god that has more influence than she lets on. It seems pretty clear this is some kind of time loop, too. Which makes it easy to assume Linne has something to do with it. But with how tired and lazy she acts, I think it's safe to assume she's just a third party stuck in the middle.

Leave Theories Below. Sniping this before Quasi posts one.

好了，现在你可以停止抱怨了吗？

我有偏见，因为我只是为了给这款游戏评分才注册的账号，但我喜欢它。
