Thank you! I found the combat system fun, so I hope it's not made too easy in the future! :D

I just finished my first playthrough as Ember. Wesyng was my guide for the first dungeon and Laurent was my guide for the second, despite me failing his interview. Can I change my guide depending on my choices? 

I finished all the content in allele origin and was pretty impressed, so I gave esper x guide a go and wow??? I had been wondering why you called allele origin a simple game in one of the dev logs, but esper x guide is even better! I hope that game gets finished too! It reminded me of the one persona game I played, but honestly I preferred esper x guide. I prefer its combat mechanics and the plot is more intriguing. 

Also, are all your games connected? I loved the touch of Ember in esper x guide being a transmigrator, and then it clicked that Jonas is mentioned there and Eve is mentioned in allele origin.

I'd overlooked your games in the past because they're not completed, but this is a rare instance where I genuinely enjoyed unfinished vns. Brilliant work! :) 

I tried to run it on joiplay and it doesn't work. It loads into joiplay and I can start the game, but when I try to start a route I get an error. 

Is the claim button intended to be public or are these intended for backers only? 

Do Act 1 and Act 2 form a complete story without Act 3, or are they like a very long demo with a cliffhanger?

I played this because of your comment, and you're right about the quality. Great vn

I'm still on the first puzzle but I'm already hooked. Great characters and wonderful writing! 

I came across a bug. The back button is always in shadow, like the Skip button is when reading unread text, and I can't press it or otherwise see previous text. 

It's very common among visual novels! It must be less popular among other games. 

I'm not sure about contacting developers directly, but I'll consider it.

I don't want to link to specific examples, but it isn't regional pricing. Prices are roughly the same across steam and itch for me. Steam is slightly more expensive but includes taxes within the final price which cancels out. 

It's also pretty common for devs to discount their games on steam (sometimes pretty steeply) but not discount them on itch at all. 

Thanks! 

What's the difference between Full Game and Full Game 1.41?

I want to buy visual novels, and I want to buy them on itch. This is hard when a sale happens and vns are on sale for double the amount of steam - think 60% on steam and 30% on itch. I end up gravitating toward vns that have roughly the same discount between websites, but that tends to mean always buying the vns of the same dev or two. 

Why do devs do this? If they choose to discount a game by some amount on steam, why are they unwilling to do the same on itch? 

Thanks for the reply. Good luck with everything! 

Hi there! Any update on this or other upcoming games? Thanks! 

I didn't know there were so many AI tags. Thanks. 

Out of curiosity, I filtered the Visual Novel genre by AI-generated. Many of the games that popped up have art that does not seem AI-generated at all. Nor does the creator or the comments mention anything about AI.

If these games have art made with AI, then AI is much better at emulating digital art then I thought. How did itch.io determine that these games were made with AI? Does the AI-generated tag remain even if AI assets were removed? 

Thank you!

Hello! I've been making my way through your works, starting with Ochitsubaki. I'm currently a bit confused about the order. I was going through the games on the Feyxuan page in the order listed, which puts these demos in the yuzu/haru series, after oeprator, operator. Is that the right order? Are all the demos part of that series? The Swanchime page lists the works in a different order, and I'm sure there was a zine that grouped the games in order but I can't find it

Thank you for porting Embraced by Autumn! I don't want to overwhelm you with a long list of requests for ports, but it would be wonderful if you could mention any visual novels you'll be porting soon before the sale ends, so that I can buy any that interest me :)

 Thank you! I've bought Nothing and Nowhere and Embraced by Autumn in advance :D 

Looks like I'll be buying Nothing and Nowhere next! Is there any chance of Embraced by Autumn being ported?

Which of your commercial VNs will be coming to android next? I want to know which games to buy during the sale!

Will the remastered eroolia games be ported to android?

I bought the game on itch but I'd like to play it on android. Is it possible to do that?
