Loved it! Looking forward to more games from you, if you ever create more! 💜
I watched Manly's let's play of this and here are my thoughts:
- Loved the writing! Being an AuDHDer watching this felt like a treat. Very relatable.
- Great job with the characters' expressions and little mannerisms. Angel chewing on their (?) hoodie strings is precious. Their art is beautiful too. The little animations are cool!
- The scene girl is adorable 🥺
(SPOILERY THOUGHTS BELOW)
- Is Angel trans/non-binary? I kind of assumed right away based on the design and name, and the end bit made me even more convinced.
- Lee's upbringing gave me cult vibes, not sure if I'm way off. Also autism vibes. I really liked him honestly, he was super nice in a chill/deadpan kind of way. Up to a certain point anyway...
- I was rooting so hard for romance. I'm not sure I got what I wanted though... Before the Revelations, it really did seem like a potentially sweet relationship that raised some interesting ethical questions. Getting close and personal like that would be a HUGE no-no for anyone involved in healthcare. But it also didn't feel... morally wrong? to me.
- My heart longs for a follow-up game. I think those two post-true end would make for interesting side characters, at least. I'm so curious what their dynamic ends up being long term. Honestly, didn't expect that to be the true end at all.
Thank you!!I'm still working on it! But I'm scared of setting a release date because I am infamously bad at estimating timescales lol. Rest assured though, it will be.
Hi, thank you for playing and for the lovely comment 💗Yes, I know I'm super slow but there's been major progress and I'm currently working on endgame-ish stuff. It ended up being pretty long and detailed, but I'm excited to release it once finished. I'll probably make a post on here once it's ready for beta testing to see if anyone wants to help me with that. 🌼 I've also recently started streaming some of the gamedev process on Twitch, if you're interested: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2147679845?t=01h11m06s
Manly brought me here. What a gem of a game! I'm obsessed with Pearl's design, like, for real!!! As well as the expressiveness of the art. And the 2.5D look. And the quirky silly dialogue. Beary nice little game 🐻
One tiny change I'd suggest is adding either character names to textboxes or making the boxes unique to each major character (like with a graphic, icon or even just colour). Most of the time it's fine since the talksprites change, but during the climax I did get a bit confused since there were three people talking. I think it could look really stylish too.
I think I'm in love with your games. Love the bratty femboy. Your art style is great as well!! Please teach me how to make short games 🙏
Got stuck trying to get all the endings though, and I think I broke the game a bit :0 After clicking on his legs a bunch and then talking to him, then making a Sweet Tea, the game just froze and didn't give any further options.
Hello! Thank you for your interest in my game. In short, it will be out when it is ready. I was hoping for this year but I can't be sure, as this is a hobby project that I work on during my free time (and that is often compromised by poor health or other activities).
Hi! This game doesn't have prominent jumpscares, no. There might be a few items with unexpected sound effects, but they are not very loud, I think? Let me know if you need more details.
Thank you so much! I am really glad you had a good time ^^ I am working on it, it's going pretty okay! I hope you like the full version as well when it's done.
Oh gosh, thank you so much! This makes me super happy to hear ;^; I wouldn't dream of being compared with Ib or OFF, but I'll do my best to make the full game good! With the demo thing, when you edit your game page, you can set a "custom noun" that itch will use to refer to your game. Hope this helps!
Нет, так точно не должно быть о_о Звучит как очень странный баг, впервые слышу... Должно быть так, как здесь на скриншотах. На Windows играете или на эмуляторе?
Just saw a let's play of this. Lovely game - fantastic pixel art and intriguing story. This could honestly be a longer adventure game, I would dig a story about trying to uncover a conspiracy. You did a great job! I'll be looking forward to more stuff from you. :>
Hi Mel! I am very flattered that you want to translate it, of course you can! <3 You can also contact me if you need to discuss how to better translate certain things. (Can't help with Spanish itself, though, since I don't speak it. But that makes it especially cool to have a translation.)
Спасиииибо, рад стараться с: Насчёт исчезновения парней - во многих пиксельных играх так делают, чтобы не париться с программированием "гусеницы" из людей. Плюс эстетические причины.
