thanks for the explanation ! I found some of their background really beautiful (like the sanatorium) tho, but then there are some others in the city that lack layer of colors... anyways x)

I finished the demo and I love Ais and Leander !!
- Interesting characters, interesting dialogues (Ais <3)
- Possibility to choose MC's background
- CGs with character look good
But there is ONE downside :
- The art background... I don't know if it will be improved later, or if it's a choice to have a plain background but it's really a letdown because the content is good, the characters and places look interesting, but as a player, when you see background art that lack shadow, contrasts, colors, lifeless... It does not highlight the game.
- We don't even need to have detailed background, some otome (like Obscura that only has a demo too) have sometimes kinda blurred art, but dark colors, dark themes, and it creates so much atmosphere. It creates an identity. That are the words I was looking for.
Exemple below : don't get me wrong, it's good art, it's good BG CG, but it can be improved ? it lacks of relief, depth in the colors ? It's colored perfectly but something's missing. If someone understands what I mean, please help haha
I was astonished by the trailer, couldn't wait to try the demo, and I feel a tad disapointed by that. Of course, I'm just expressing my opinion, maybe it's just a question of taste afterall, and if the style was made on purpose, a choice of the makers, I understand and I fully accept it. If it was not, then take it as something that can definitly be improved because the backgrounds will give your game more life.
Also, I will definitely buy the game when it will be out !
