just wanted to say, you have a knack for making games I love to death, perhaps nearly literally. I continue to be so uncomfortable playing your games to the point where I have panic attacks and have to take breaks in between sessions of playing them. Some may contend it’s unhealthy, or a sign I’m not in the right headspace to be playing it. I dispute that, as ultimately, it’s strangely cathartic, and it allows me to confront my own issues by proxy.


A proxy war against my insecurities - sounds quite valiant put that way. It’s pretty far from the truth, but I accept these types of affirmations as they occur regardless in an effort to make it a reality. Fake it ‘til you make it as they say.


Anyway, enough about myself. All of that had been to say, congratulations and thank you for all of the work you put into your VNs. They are often snapshots of a dystopia so vivid it reminds me why I fight and work hard to maintain trans and queer rights in tandem to being able to briefly dissociate from the world around me. More than anything thank you for existing and sharing your stories with the world.


I want to go on and on and on and on… and on maybe some more about how your stories have affected me, and why I am so grateful. That said, I’ll leave it here for today.


I plan on supporting you through patreon in the near future, so you’ll get to hear from me there occasionally as well now.

I've gotten the same ending every time! I'm genuinely trying to get alternate endings.

I've got the ending where Gogo offers to let me be their servant every time.! Any hints to help me get the other endings?

Wait, is the dream scene with "Churchburner Capra" an ending? That was so quick, and I thought the story would still continue from there. I don't get what happened?

Currently playing Onyx Heart, and loving it. You'll see a comment there later! I'll look at When The Sea Received The Sky after I finish playing it (I'll likely do multiple playthroughs).

Welp, time to do what I should've before writing that comment - Check out your other games. There's gotta be at least one I'll like and be comfortable with, right? 

I haven't played this game, nor do I plan to to be entirely honest. I don't think I'll ever be emotionally prepared enough to face this. It clearly is a masterpiece based on the comments, art available just on this page, and even the mere concept has me slightly giddy.

Congratulations on the story.

Although I know I would be unable to really get past the cannibalism and gore, and as a result don't plan on playing it like I said earlier, you have earned a follow for the mere entry of this VN. I hope to you continue creating VNs, and that maybe one in the future will a bit less graphic in terms of blood so that I can more fully appreciate it.

You have no idea how many times I've gone through itch.io, Sorted down the tags to Adult, Yuri, and Visual Novel, found She Was Swallowed by the Sun, thought about trying the game, then ultimately deciding it wasn't for me due to the horror and gore elements. I know it's something special, but I know myself to be kinda squeamish.

I know I'm rambling, but I just can't express it enough that I can tell I'm missing out on something, something powerful, so I struggle to stop writing about that. I want to experience this, but I'm too scared. This comment is a testament to my indecision, and is further a testament to the pull this game has on my heart WITHOUT EVEN DOWNLOADING IT.

I guess I've gotta stop somewhere... so I'll leave it at this. Snek, you've caught my attention. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for more from you, and wish you the best.

PLEASE ADD MORE! It ended right when it finally got interesting...

(1 edit)

apparently , there was an update on their patreon a few days ago, but I can't read it. Does anyone know what this says behind the paywall about the games development? It looks a lot like a "heh, sorry guys, I've dropped the game" without full context.


Edit: removed typo

There's many small typos and word order things. I can help if you'd like. Do you have a discord server, or other platform I can talk to you from?

I personally think you have a shot! I bet you could get the game covered, especially if you emailed his business email!

I literally made an Itch.io account simply to tell you although I personally couldn't really enjoy this, I know this game is very high quality! I can't wait for further updates, and maybe to see someone like ManlyBadassHero play it in place (it's too overwhelming for me.)
