I am late to the party! I've been so busy with Uni that I'm just now finding the time to sit down and play Cantata. I want to start with the fact I adored Viatica and have always loved your writing, it was amazing! But I will note that your writing has grown significantly. The way you transport us into the world of this story is stunning. All the ROs are so interested and I am deeply invested in each and every one of them which is a rare experience with me since I usually easily pick favorites! I will say, the ending of chapter 4 -- AGHH!! YOU AND THESE DEVASTATING CLIFFHANGERS! It seems to be a signifier of yours. If something has a cliffhanger that tears your heart in two, its probably written by Fir & Fireweed! Amazing work and I can't seem to be more -- also, the secret RO! chefs kiss! what an amazingly written, passionate scene with the reunification even if you choose not to romance them. so much to say but all in all -- great work! Amazing indeed! I can't wait to see how this story continues, how the storylines of the ROs shapes their interactions and the plot...and most importantly YAYY Taking down another evil empire!

Is there a possibility to cheat on your RO with Vexx?? I thought we were locked into a romance until I saw that part. I'm mainly curious because it seems like an interesting run to play and I wonder how it would effect the story in anyway ! If thats too "spoilery" thats perfectly fine but I was just wondering...love A6 ! ive been following this game for so long and im so happy to see it come to its final stretches

I understand how some of these situations in the game could have been handled better but I think it really puts the player in the position of a 15 year old Emmett who doesn't really understand how to handle such a heavy situation and is only trying his best! Sorry just wanted to add something more

I played this game a couple years ago, so long I don't even remember the time. What I do remember is playing and getting ending #2 and bawling and then not playing again because I was so scared of a bad ending hahah! But I've come back and played the full game. It's truly beautiful and heartwrenching and perfectly portrays how someone with suicidal ideation would react to someone genuine :( its so horrible how depression tricks the brain into thinking you don't deserve love to the point you sabotage it and then its somehow justified by that little voice in your head. Michael and Emmett both are such meaningful characters ! Ending #3 made me happy. Michael getting help outside of Emmett is what makes it an amazing "true" ending. Emmett can be here for Michael but the heavy stuff is for therapy. Love can't cure mental illness but it can provide a support and buoy for when it gets out of control!

I hope you have a wonderful day and I loved your work<3

I thought Cam was a love interest when I started playing the demo oh nooo! It's okay because I love Percy but im still abit sad! very lovely game , a lot of beautiful art and music that pulls me into the environment but the finals feels were too real for me (technically midterms but I had to take a break lol!)

I just finished chapter 10 and you were right -- i am CRYING and i Blame You! 

Really, wonderful chapter. "We will not be a lesson for them" and reading the note Bison wrote combined made me start crying like a little baby and the end with a kind of turn around on the usual Robin-MC dynamic with them offering you the comfort and being a kind of stronghold was sooo good i dont know how to describe it. You emotionally devastated me with this one and ill never forgive you. I knew something bad was going to happen but I didnt expect it to hurt so bad!

ahhh im so excited!! and so scared. =) IM SURE WHATEVER U WROTE IS AMAZING

You did so good with Robin! The way you portrayed the feeling of being nonbinary in a society arranged into male or female and the way you also portrayed their recent trauma. It was so good. I also love that mc calls them dearest <3 aughh I could go on and on!!! Their observant and thoughtful behavior sets them apart as well and makes them a unique character I think.

And awesome! Can't wait to see Ferret truly shine. 

Additionally









NOOO!!!! I knew it I knew it. I fell to the floor in a target parking lot!!!!! My poor baby Fawn please no!!!!!

I don't know if I forgive you,...but I can appreciate your beautiful writing in getting me so attached to a character that I recognized her importance to the story and mc as a whole

my only critique is that I feel like Ferret gets a bit sidelined despite her being a RO -- I enjoy her romance scenes but everyone else feels like they have more balance. I finished playing each route and Ferret's felt slightly incomplete compared to the rest. Her character on its own is lovely though. I really enjoy her characterization which is why I'm saying this. I hope she gets more content !

Looove this!! Someone commented it under scout as a recommendation for those who missed it and I don't regret taking the time to read it. I did Lion's route first and Robin's second and they stole my heart. As someone nonbinary myself I just adore them so much and what they represent in a controlling society like this. This was some beautiful writing too. I ranted to my mother about the plot twist at the end, I wasn't expecting it at all but then I reread it with the robin route and it made so much sense! So exciting to see how this ends. I want to protect Fawn so bad and I'm scared you're setting her up for tragedy please don't hurt her!!! Robinmancer 4 life signing out ^_^

i have never cried harder than today when i realize the last update of this game was 2021. It's a wonderful story so far and im enjoying just replaying through every route.

Alright thank you;-; sorry for all the mess! I sent a friend request

hey sorry it took me a while! I'm operating under a 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor (I had to look up how to find this out ._.) still am not sure whats going on

Hi ! Steam gave me a similar message about the operation failing due to a virus so :? unfortunate bust. I tried itch.io and received this

Hello! Every time I go to open the demo it tells me the operation failed due to potential viruses. At first I thought this might have been a me issue but all my other game applications open fine.

Ahhhh I really love this game! I got ending #2 but I'm too scared to get ending #1 so I can get ending #3 since ending #2 already made me kinda sad ...I love your work keep it up!!
