Oh, alright, thank you! Again- loved your work on this, and I can not wait to see the next build!

Greetings and Salutations. I've been playing a few Visual Novels and I just recently made an account so I can be able to comment on them and give my full review, especially for those who are trying to see if they want to get into the game, or for the creator to see. I want to start by saying I really liked how the story felt realistic. the dialogue felt genuine. A big problem a lot of Visual Novels have is that it does genuinely feel like a "novel" a lot of the time. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with intensive story-telling but I think the way you wrote the characters and how they interacted was very unique. 

With the amount of content in the game from the different routes, it is safe to say that I enjoyed the game thoroughly. For anyone reading, I can assure you to continue playing the game until the end, because that's where the real meat of the story and everything falls into place is.

One thing I will recommend or perhaps even suggest for future updates (if possible) is sound design and maybe more scenes. For example.. (SPOILERS)









For sound designs, things like whispers every now and again when we are in the POV of Jefferey being possessed. For scenes, for example, when Ted and Jeffery are driving to the cave entrance, I audibly gasped because of the cute visual of them together in the car. It was a nice touch, and scenes like for the intimate scenes or even scenes like when Darren got shot, for example, of flashbacks of Caleb would make the story more immersive.

(SPOILERS END)

Overall, I loved the game and it was a very nice story to lay back and read. It wasn't overly horrific, but it genuinely did have some endings that made me shake my head in shock and awe. Loved it!

Of course! I genuinely can not wait for the next update. Does this game or community have a space? Such as a Discord of people working on it/talking about it, or a twitter, etc?

Greetings and Salutations. I've been on a mission to find myself the best visual novels (for my own personal tastes, anyway) and it has been both a blessing and a curse with your game. A blessing in the sense that the moment I started it and got into it, I was hooked. The writing style, the descriptive nature of the dialogue, the way each character is fleshed out with their own dynamics but also being flexible to adjust to the.. "situations" in the story; I loved every bit of it. I found myself really attached to Stefan, Sharif, and Garett as characters, but really, every single character in the game was just exceptional to get to know. The way you write the character, ESPECIALLY the MC, does not leave anyone to pick out plot holes or wondering "huh, why is the Horror protag stupid?" No, it makes sense. Even parts when characters split up, it doesn't feel like it was forced for story, but rather it feels like what would actually happen in a realistic setting considering the circumstances. The sound design and character designs are all phenomenal. I say it was a curse with the fact I was so invested I ended up binging the game in a mere matter of 2 days, finishing it on the night of the second. The "To Be Continued" left me actually in pain because I honestly can not wait to see where the story goes. I've only just recently made an itch.io account and I think this Visual Novel is the first game I am posting a comment on to praise the work that went into this. I really loved the story, and I can not wait to see more whenever it is out. Thank you.
