i found your game on tiktok a few months ago, right up until i finally decided to play it— typically, i don’t like to play games myself and prefer to watch gameplays instead. it’s very rare i can get myself to focus on my own accord (for whatever reason) but i had no problem reading all the narration and dialogue in this! 

spoiler !! for anyone who hasn’t played yet

first of all, the art is drop dead gorgeous and i adore the scenes that you’ve made so far! sijeijdi AND THE COMPOSITION IS CRAZYYY GOOD
///

i think your writing is *extremely* pleasant to read and itsuki’s perspective is really fun to get lost in! i especially like the tangent he had going on about the whats of being an ‘adult’ and how maybe people in the future just have to lose that ‘softness’ inside themselves as they grow (i actually had a non-fiction creative writing essay with this exact theme and wording, so safe to say that line was extra significant to me). 

also the detail of rika having been in an area where a disaster happened and then creating a club literally called the end of the world club? literally genius. i know her reasoning wasn’t stated to be that, but i think it just layers so much more meaning that she may have just wanted to find more meaning in day-to-day life alongside other people in a new area and be able to truly cherish it

anywaysss didn’t mean my comment to end up being a tangent of itself, however i still wanna say that the demo so far is AMAZING and i’m so excited to see the rest of the game unravel ^0^

i found this game extremely accurate and so well written 😭 from personal experience it felt like seeing myself on my low days or from my past, i almost forgot how much of your life could be surrounded with whats written in the game— the narration and dialogue really build on each other and end up feeling so eerily realistic to me. i feel if you’ve gone through the things said in the game it kinda hits, like you can directly place yourself in that position. 

the way you word and use metaphors i feel is very common with people in that mindset— what with the alienated feeling, the rot, and exhaustion. and ofc not feeling human, i don’t know why but i rarely feel that media rarely portrays depression or anything similar as that when to me it’s so prominent. again 😭 i really love how immersive it was for me

besides that !! i love the colors and the style, the brush you use is so RAHHHH 🤍 it feels so homey and comfortable and the shades are YUMMAY // it’s really impressive that this was under 24 hours 😭 it’s so beautifully made
