HOLY MOLY! THIS MADE ME SCREAM A LOT AND I HAVE TO REREAD THE STORY AGAIN TO MAKE SURE THAT I DON'T FALL IN LOVE WITH THIS STORY, but alas I failed and fell in love <3 avfjafvavfa
I absolutely loved this game! At first glance, I was unsure of what to think. But as the story progressed I fell in love with Cethin after getting two bad endings.
A part of me still wanted a route with the Demon Butler, I mean LOOK at his smirk. The little animations sold this game for me and I can't wait for you to make another! You're incredible for making me fall in love with everyone. :)
Ahh, this was such a wonderful game! I decided to give it a quick playthrough before going to bed and I'm glad I did, it was so sweet that I think I'll have good dreams for a change! ❤️ Thank you so much for making this lovely little visual novel.
Lil' trivia on that- I actually kept making extra expressions as I coded. Whenever there's a part which I don't think I had the proper expression for, I'd end up making a new one just for that part, so I'd end up drawing a new one along the way... that I found myself with expressions I didn't even get to use ^^"
AAAH!!! I adore this game sm and was wondering if you were going to announce when you were taking auditions for you VA parts? 👀 Because I’m super interested!!
I VOTE FOR A BUTLER ROUTE RIGHT FISHING NOW. also once again amazing game! its surprising how you dont want money for any of your amazing projects! good job ^^
Honestly, I'm torn between wanting to make my games as accessible to as many people as possible and well... money, cause I do need money, and I'm honestly not confident if anyone's willing to pay for them =w="
I might open a Patreon if there's interest, but right now I do have a Ko-fi XD
BUT YEAH. This one's free as it is a game jam entry, and the VAs helping me out with this aren't getting paid either so it's only fair to let this be played for free ^_^
That's a +2 vote 😂😂😂 THE PEOPLE WANT A BUTLER ROUTE!!!!!
P.S. You are able to tell a good story and have wonderful art. Tbh I think you should definitely make paid work. You have the drive that a lot of indie game dev companies lack. You actually finish your work and tell a really good story. I've seen projects that are larger scales than your games (By that I mean 20-40 hours long games) but they don't tell as good of a story as you do in less time. You/your team has true talent, you should definitely consider it!
PS PS: You made the art, coding AND story?!?!?! Triple threat!! You're so dang talented and you definitely need to get paid for your time! As artist people (videographer/editor here) it's easy to sell ourselves short. But you should definitely make some commercial work. Don't think it won't sell because it will!
This was a super cute game to end my evening with! I can't count how many times I've squee'd or aww'd and learning what happened to Cethin actually got me emotional. I love the chemistry Lumi and him have; it was the sweetest thing. Getting to see each CG and then being able to click through the layered ones in the gallery was also amazing, I've never seen anything like it, and it gave me so much dopamine.
I just finished the game and I LOVED IT! The art was beautiful, and the story was engaging and just so cute T_T The romantic moments were *chef's kiss*
I loved Lumi and her relationship with Cethin and Reo. I actually liked to see moments when everyone was interacting, too. All in all it was a really enjoyable visual novel. I hope you can make a Reo route because I fell in love with his character during Cethin's route haha I really hope to see more of him!!
I enjoy writing character dynamics! Honestly, I was excited to get to the part where all three meet when I was still writing, so I'm glad you liked it! ^_^
The game and the story are awesome: so sweet, so heartwarming <3 A perfect fairytale for the festive season, thank you so much for making it!
I loved the characters, the art, the music selection, the premise :) I loved the dynamics between the characters and their growth throughout the story. The attention to detail (like hints on getting the missing CGs in the CG Gallery) is great too!
In the true fairytale fashion, there are also some important lessons to learn here - the message about looking past the stereotypes and seeing for yourself what are your values, which people you want to befriend (no matter the preconceptions), what are your strengths (even if they don't fit the mold)
Beautiful story, beautiful game - thank you <3
P.S. Most importantly! I knew I shouldn't get my hopes up when I saw that there's only 1 romance route, but... Reo route! Reo route! Reo route! :D Please consider making it, pleeeeaaaaase (^-^)
Thank you so much for the detailed review! >o< I'm glad you enjoyed it ^_^
Reo was originally going to have a route, but I had to cut it out since I wouldn't be able to finish it for the game jam. We'll see if I'll go through with it :)

Oh gosh, that's so sweet! THANKS >///<
Yeah, at the very least, this version release was a one person team aka me.
This was fuzzy and funny! I like the balance between the light-hearted and more serious scenes. And I vote for a butler route! :D
Glad you found it funny! ^_^
... And hopefully will be funnier once the voiced version is released XD

Thank you for this heartwarming story!
Aww thanks!
I'm glad you felt that about the gallery also, especially since it's my first time implementing one >///<

Understandable :)
