Don't worry, your doing a great job  :3

And by GOAT, I mean greatest of all time. I mean, grandpa was such a funny character and he played so well with Xiao lol

This is a great visual novel — genuinely a pleasure to read. As the chapters progressed, it was easy to notice how the writing kept improving, becoming more confident and refined. You can really feel the care and affection poured into every part of this story.

(SPOILERS AHEAD)

That said, the ending felt a bit rushed, especially from  the electric fence conflict onward. It felt like several important threads were left unresolved: the outcome of the conflict itself, the love triangle, Mar’s situation with their parents, and the closure for some of the other characters. I couldn’t help but feel that there was more here that we didn’t quite get to see.

Even so, this remains a very wholesome and enjoyable visual novel, and reading it was a lovely experience overall. I truly hope to see more from Heat Source in the future  :3

P.S. Grandpa Seraph is the GOAT

I'm so happy to see this back :D

After a long time, I found myself coming back to visual novels and revisiting some I had played before. This one stayed somewhere in my memory. I couldn’t remember the name, but I knew I’d find it eventually.

When I did, I was so happy. And even happier to see that, even if slowly and quietly, it’s still alive.

I just wanted to say: thank you for being honest. And more than that, thank you for still caring. I’ve been in a similar place before, loving a project deeply, yet feeling stuck, drained, or unable to reach it the way I once did. That kind of stagnation doesn’t mean failure. Sometimes it’s just part of the process of being human.

Please know that it’s okay to move slowly. It’s okay to struggle. And it’s okay to take the time you need to reconnect with what you love, or even to change how that connection looks. You don’t owe us constant progress. Your well-being matters more than any release date.

I, and many others, are still here. Not waiting with pressure, but with support. Whenever the time is right, we’ll be glad to see Tangled Stars again. Until then, take care, and know that your work and you mean a lot to us.

hewwo  OwO

Thank youu (⁠｡⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠｡⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♡

I know it will UwU

I lived for this moment.

Glad to hear that :3

I think I'm fine, thanks for asking. How about you?

Hello hello  (⁠｡⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠｡⁠)⁠ﾉ

Thank you ^^

Hello, thank you for the kind words. But I must say that this project is not a VN, but a webnovel that I am working on. It will probably be my ultimate project  (⁠＠w⁠＠⁠;⁠)

New project :3!

Thanks =w=

Thank you deeply for your words. It’s comforting to know that even when things don’t go as planned, someone out there still believes in me. I’ll carry that with me into the book project — and I’ll keep creating, at my own pace. Honestly, I'm pretty tired of giving up on things, but now I have a good reason to finish this project. Thank you for being here, and all your support  (⁠〒w〒⁠)

Thank you so much for your words. I’m really glad you enjoyed what was already made, that means a lot. I'll try to focus on what I can do. Thanks for everything.

No, thank you. And I'm so sorry. Really. Your support means the world to me, more than I can ever put into words. I’ll carry that gratitude with me, always.

Thank you, truly. Your words are very kind and comforting. I’ll try to take it easier and focus on what brings me peace.

It means a lot to know you've been following for so long and still want to support me  =w=

I'll try to post more frequently. I'm also looking for the best way to publish  ^^

Thank you so much. It really means a lot to know the story had some impact.

Life truly is confusing and messy, but I’ll do my best not to lose sight of what brings me joy.

Knowing I have your support gives me strength.

Thanks a lot for your words. It’s hard not to feel like a failure when things don’t go as planned, but you’re right — I’ve been too hard on myself.

I’ll try to breathe, focus on what I can do, and take things one step at a time.

Thanks again for reminding me that my stories matter. That means a lot.

Thank you so much for the kind message  qwq

Don't worry, your words give me some relief. Thank you for your kind words  ^⁠_⁠^

Agradeço o apoio qwq

Olá, obrigado pelo comentário e feedback. 

Eu não esperava que alguém ainda se daria o trabalho de comentar neste projeto. 

Bem, infelizmente, este é um projeto cancelado. Foi meu primeiro projeto de visual novel, então acabou não indo muito longe, devido à minha própria falta de experiência, entre outros fatores. 

Eu sou um desenvolvedor solo, então acabei decidindo por deixar este projeto de lado para experimentar outras coisas.

Este projeto também é muito importante para mim; essa história é importante para mim. Mas ainda vai levar um bom tempo até que eu possa retornar a ele.

Para mais informações sobre os motivos de eu não continuar o desenvolvimento deste e de outros projetos, pode olhar os registros de posts e comentários do meu outro projeto, Phoenix's Tear.

Novamente, obrigado pelo comentário. Foi bom voltar a essa página após tanto tempo  (⁠^w^;)

You are very kind  :3

Hello, King! Thank you for your words.

Actually, there's a lot going on in my life. I'm in the final stages of a technical course, while also looking for a job and a place to live in another city, where I will probably spend a few years of my life.Because of this and other things that end up adding up, I get very exhausted and my time is short. 

About Patreon, don't worry about having to pay, because it's on hiatus for now (during my hiatus I'm not charging subscribers or allowing new subscribers).

The situation on Patreon, despite having some new things that I didn't show here, is also at a standstill.

I think I exaggerated my answer, but in short, I'm too busy, too tired, wanting to work more on the project but not being able to. 

You were very kind to come back here and ask how things are, I didn't expect that. Thank you for your care that I don't deserve  ^w^

Thanks a lot  =w=

Hi, thanks for the comment and kind words. I would love to give you a more positive response or update TwT. What I can say is that I could be better, and that the project will go through a phase that makes my stomach turn. I'm finalizing a few things, and an update will be out soon(ish).  (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

Thank you for your feedback and for suggesting Ren'Py Translator!

It's undoubtedly a great tool with useful features. However, in my experience, I faced some challenges, such as code conflicts and occasional issues with certain lines not translating properly. On the other hand, Zenpy worked seamlessly for my needs. It also provides tools that integrate well with my workflow, making it easier to manage translations in my game's code.

While Ren'Py Translator is an excellent option, it isn’t the most convenient choice for me personally, especially since I already use Zenpy Pro. That said, I believe both tools have their strengths, and I encourage developers to explore all options to determine what best suits their projects and workflow   (✿◠‿◠)

Hey! Thank you very much for your overwhelming support! Thanks to you the project will continue to be alive and getting better and better!  ♪⁠ ⁠\⁠(⁠^⁠ω⁠^⁠\⁠ ⁠)

Thank you for understanding, you are a sweetheart.  (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠✧⁠*⁠。

Lmao nice one!  (⁠☞ﾟ⁠ヮﾟ⁠)⁠☞

Oh, then maybe you should let it go... I don't want your relationship with your parents to get awkward because you want to support some developer you barely knows. I'll be more than happy if you can play the game, give feedback, maybe share it with your friends  (⁠ʘ⁠ᴗ⁠ʘ⁠✿⁠)

We'd be really happy to have your support (⁠｡⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠｡⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♡

Thank you~   •́⁠ ⁠ ⁠‿⁠ ⁠,⁠•̀

True, I'd have to make some tests. There is also the CGs... (⁠￣⁠ヘ⁠￣⁠;⁠)

Will do darling OwO
