Came for the beautiful characters, stayed for the story. Honestly friggin fantastic. I did not expect some of these character stories to be so good. But I think the thing that caught me the most the animations, they are just absolutely perfect and always a treat when one pops up and the same for the jokes, I did not expect to laugh so hard at some of these. Take as much time as you need Atemsiel each chapter is worth it!

Sorry for the half a year late reply but what I more so was the title screen in question which had an image that used to present the game as something far less in depth than what the actual VN we actual get is presented. The previous title screen image would honesty make you second guess if this game was just worth even the install with how vain it seemed, while the current one shows something obviously sexual in nature but is also extremely tasteful as it's sort of similar to picking up an adult novel in bookstore.
I haven't even FINISHED my playthrough of this game I can say without a doubt I love it. I'll honestly say I never expected the story's plot to hit at my heart strings as strongly as it did, they even hinted to in the above synopsis of the game. The longer I play this game the more attention and especially DETAIL I see the author has put into it all. Not just the environments but with each new scene I genuinely feel like characters feel more real and because of that it's hard not to love and fall in love with every single one of them.
Helen a character I had zero attachment to in the beginning easily became my favourite. The same I can say for Shinigami who to me felt like an annoyance became genuinely interesting (even cute) to outright frightening at times. But these are just MY favourites and again I still finding myself loving these girls and the mystery of the story that binds them all together.
So glad I decided to give this game a shot in the dark. Even in some of my favourite japanese's comedy visual novels, have I never laughed so hard and I played this for 5-days straight! Plus the refences in this game go so hard! I honestly picked this up because I liked the designs of the female character models, but I didn't expect to love ALL of them as characters, with my fav's being Jasmine (just gotta love the queen B) and Judie who is just an absolute cinnamon roll!
I often found myself going back for Rebecca since I kept getting her path closed but the final day with her while a certain anime track was playing and her beautiful smile just made me cry so much. This game has such powerful serious moments that can hit you out of nowhere and it's honestly so good.
The author has mentioned that despite the game being finished more scenes will be added later and I look forward to jumping back into this world again in the future and hope even that "Solo" Girl Endings are updated to give them a more personal feel if you just love only one girl in this game.
There are very few VN's on this site which can hit a good vibe between being genuine comedy and seriousness but this game just nails it, character expressions play a big part in this as even wordless moments can sell a scene.
And with that I look forward to playing ETERNUM next! But I'll give it a while to cook before diving in!
Aside from the ATROCIOUS menu screen, I love everything about this game. It's a LEGIT Visual Novel from start to finish, it's not a typical "Point and Click" type that I was expecting to use "exploring" to pad for game time and this honestly surprised me cause it took me hours into reading to notice! Honestly I went into this game because I've always wanted to see this concept (Having your mind being sent back into the past) but my gawd did this deliver on so many fronts. It explores so many ideas that I've always wanted to see from this concept, such as Ben's (Default Name) worries on the first day when he goes to sleep if any of this is real or not. I LOVE the characters in this game, no one feels like a troupe and each of the characters just have so much depth to them. And the writing in the game is absolutely phenomenal! From descriptions of characters feelings, to the sex it was all more than I could expect and it's carries this game HARD as it should for a visual novel because I cannot wait to read more!
Edit: As of version 0.8 the UI has been overhauled to be far more slick interface wise and more pleasant to look. So ignore the opening statement.
Just played your demo and loved it. (Even though it was just Sophia's route). Please continue to update us on itch.io side as well!
Edit: Just finished all the main girl routes and I have to say I loved each and every one of them, even for the characters who I didn't think I would. This dialogue and scenario's for all these characters is so brilliant, original and hilarious. Looking to Chapter 2 even more than ever. And please take your time if it means reaching or exceeding the quality of Chapter 1's script.
