This was so touching and really gave me a lot to think about during what feels like a very unproductive period I'm having. That sentiment of the process being what makes the work worth it rather than the result is something I forget and am reminded of over and over and I'm sure this zine will help keep me straight!
Thanks so much for writing this and putting yourself out there, Meonggae!!!
Yellow: The music and sound effects were so amazing! I was smiling within seconds during the launch sequence and everything after fit the tone it was going for so well, I am already hollering at friends to read this immediately. This was so cool, this was so cool, I loved this!!!
Red: I hate the United States even more than I did 20 minutes ago
I always struggle to find what to say in the heat of the moment after I finish a VN, so I typically try to cool off before I try to put my thoughts into words. This time, I thought I'd try Being Here instead. It tend to say "I really loved this!" every time I leave a review and I do, but again, in the interest of Being Here, I'll try to actually say something for once!
I love how flawed both characters were and how devastating perception is used. Deirdre's perception of herself, her perception of Kenzie, inability to perceive contrasting with Kenzie's inability to see Deirdre even when she's in full display (in her own way). It hurt, it hurt really good just how Deirdre breathes life into the things people would think of as objects near her but just can't accept that for herself. Both of them are right and both of them are wrong in their own individual ways and I love that.
Of course, the GUI and everything was stunning too! God I loved this. I loved this. AAAAAAA I LOVED THIS
This hit home much harder than I wanted it to. Phenomenal, love the concept and the execution! I love it! As others said, the little bits of world building and peeks at the larger world and Implications pulled so much weight.
Okay yeah I get omegaverse now, this rules! Like others said the general aesthetic was so cohesive and everything came together so well. I loved this, I'm changed!
thank you so much for such a lovely comment! I'm really happy you liked it! I think that things that are unsaid, yet acted upon or reacted to, are some of my favorite things about yuri media so I'm endlessly glad that I was able to tug that thread successfully. the next one should be out in january! thank you so much for reading again ;;
The previous person said it best, this is so real!! I really adored the art and how much care seems to be put into it and the music, they perfectly compliment each other. I'm definitely antsy to see what is/could be next. I expected the scene outside of the store to be a little silly when it started, but how straight it was played really hit me. "I had no one to touch and I was fine" and the mental image of nail polish chipping from Poppy's teeth are going to live in my mind rent free for a long time.
thanks so much for playing!! funny enough, I did not filter those photos at all since they're just stills taken from a video my wife and I recorded so they're just naturally blurry hahaha
and yes! you got why ivy is ivy, I'm a sucker for flower and plant theming!
This is the first VN from the jam I meant to read and I'm glad I finally did! The world building, the mood, everything was amazing and the fact that I want more is a testament to how gripping this was!
I can't even begin to describe how much I loved this!! Everything from the art to the music selection and the writing were amazing, count me as a huge fan!!
thank you so much, I'm really glad you enjoyed it!! she says her inspiration was definitely boards of canada and com truise, I pointed her at twin peaks and signalis for the general mood!
