Armed with knowledge of the game's future, Teresa decides to intervene and erase the event that triggered the beginning of the original story.
-But actions have consequences, and instead of the protagonist, Teresa finds herself drawing the attention of the villainous underground organization, Snare.

I loved the way Edel eats one of Vicenzo's muffins,it cracks me up that we can go to Vicenzo and tell him about his servant. And above all, I love Vicenzo I think I got the bad ending because I was too trusting, but I still love him! HAHAHAHA
SPOILERS FOR DEMO
Okay,first off. FUCK EDEL.(I died twice to him in separate routes)
Second off,I choose Brillhart route first mostly due to me starting out and he was first LI to approach me fr,but as I contiuned to play,I grew fond of him.I like his little quirks,and would be interested in learning more about him.
For my favorite scene,I have to say scene between him and Edel after Teresa (I named her Charlotte in my run) accepts the roses.It was really funny imo. A couple of the scenes with them interacting are.
As to why if I would pay....hmmm,yes I would.Not a top priority, but I had the money and time to kill then yes undoubtedly.
Also IDK I like the small joke about background assets being reused when brillhart mentions the royal family,the von ambrose,and his gardens all looking the same.IDK if it was intentional but it made me laugh.
Yes, it was intentional😆
also an excuse so that I don't have to draw extra BGs🫣Heyy lovely, I hope it's okay that I'm bringing this up here, but I just bought the beta access and am having some trouble launching the game on my MacBook Air. I have played the browser demo many times and finally was able to buy the beta version. I am keen to get more into it, particularly a certain adorable two-faced fox, haha. Alas, I am having some trouble...rip. Also, if it wasn't obvious already, so far... even if it was just the demo, I LOVE IT!! You have done such a great job!
What does it say when you play it on your MacBook? 😧
For now, I've added an early beta that is exclusively for mac. Try that one out, hopefully it works!
Will defs do! I'll let you know how it goes :3 and basically what happens is that it downloads, but when I go into the file/folder and try to launch the game, the icon bops up and down a few times and then I have to override the security settings, you know the usual go with Macs lol. Normally, when I do that, a game finally works; however, this time it just stops launching completely, and then when I go into the file again to try to launch the game again, I can no longer interact with it; it gets greyed out.
Managed to download the other Mac version, and it works!! Yayyy~
Yaaay! Have fun <3
All hail Vicenzo Brillhart the muffin man!
I beg of you to make the card payment available
Card payment should be available on Ko-fi!
The demo already is quality content - I don't know when I will have the money for it, but once it's out at some point in the future I'll pay for the game <3
The first route I got is where Edel kills me and I was so confused lol! I'm excited to go back and play!! Hopefully I don't die again
wait the full game is out??
where pls im begging
It's not yet out!
This is so peak man
-Whose route would you choose first? And why?
Loved Vicenzo’s VA but would have to choose Edel’s route first just because it seems like it will be more fun
-What's your favorite scene/event?
Probably the garden scene with Edel and the following one with the prince.
-Are you interested in playing the full release? (The full game will be PAID)
Yes I’m just broke.
-Are the LIs villainous enough for you?
Yes I actually got killed by Edel on my first playthrough lol
I'm in love with this game. I don't know if I can wait until the full release, but I hope I do! Thanks for this amazing game!! (>᎑<๑)/♡
🥹 so the full release of this already AMAZING game will be free ?!
The full release will be paid.
The common route alone might take 6 hours to finish🫣
this game is so beautiful and I lovee both the ml's !! <3 I wish there was more options to be more soft spoken and kind iykwim ? 0w0 I cant wait for the full release!! keep up the good work heehee
I gotta wait to play this on my computer 💔🥀
I tried playing it on my tablet, and I didn’t know where the save button was, so when the website crashed all of my progress died.
Good game so far though!
This is TOP TIER LIKE OMG IM IN ABSOLUTE UTTER SHOCK ON HOW GOOD THIS GAME WAS WRITTEN
The male lead low-key fineeee
Anyways give the artist a pat on the head for this awesome hand work and the writer a good dinner cuz y'all lowkeyuenly cooked with this game
I NEED A PART TWO
Isekai co. xD
You've bought me, mister developer.
nooooooooo I wanted to romance the prince he is so hot
I don't like the 2 love intrests 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
reall ugh i wonder if that can be added into the full game?? i'd buy it if so omg
I'm curious, do you like him for his appearance or for his personality?🤔
Im so excited for the game
Man I can't believe I'm still early! I mean thank God that creators like you are still making new FMC games but mannn I really want to play a full game. This one seems to be super good so far, really hope to see an update soon! Keep up the good work!
The text is too dark and I can barely read some words, Though I loved the demo so much!!
Sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean by text is too dark? 🥲
It's dark text on light background...? Does it appear differently for you or do you mean some other text?
on mobile like a phone or tablet the game is too dark to read but on laptop or desktop it works fine
The browser version?
Cause the browser version is not meant to be played on mobile/tablet 💦
true but if you try it is very dark so that is what they might be referring to. I only know cause my laptop died and I tried mobile but since it is not meant for mobile the screen was very dark
I can't wait for the full release!! The mc is so funny and well written. Also when is the full game releasing?
No exact date yet.
I'll announce a date when it's near completion, but as of the moment, a lot of unexpected circumstances keep popping up... though I do try to post regular bi-monthly updates, so feel free to follow if you'd like to keep updated!
Heyyyyy this game is honestly my top 1 even tho it's not fully made! I'm so in love with the humor and everything about this project >v<
Tho when I tried to install it on my phone the download of the android version went smoothly but then instead of thorn for the villain, trapped with jester tries to get installed.... Is it my phone?
Response is here
TLDR; it's an experimental build so... I'm not sure why it ended up like that, but it's just the name🙏
(You also can't have both games in the same device, apparently)
Hey! Just wanted to point out a little bug. The little icons to skip and open the settings etc are not showing up on my screen. I tried deleting and re-downloading the game too but it didn't work... I don't really know if it's just my device or something with the game but any help would be appreciated :)
If you mean the quick menu, it's not a bug... you just have to hover on the flower at the corner to make it appear. The full version of the game will have an optional tutorial for it🥲
If it's mobile, you'd have to click on the flower.
(sorry for the late reply, I only saw this on the pending posts today😭)
TYSM <3
Damn! I've been waiting for this!! I'm prolly not gonna be allowed to play the full release lol. Keep up the good work and remember to drink water :) I really like the game.
gente esse jogo é perfeito, joguei a versão mobile sem me dar conta que era demo e fiquei querendo mais kkkkk gostei muito da personalidade da protagonista e do estilo do jogo, a arte é linda e a história interessante. tem potencial pra se tornar um dos meus jogos favoritos ♡
Esta en español? Se ve increíble pero mi inglés es muy limitado y mi Alcatel no soporta aplicaciones de traducción 😔
Está en inglés ya lo eh usado yo hshsh
Gracias
Im trying to dowload it but after the part of "staging app" instead of it asking for me to install the game it asks if i want to update "Trapped with jester" i tried both updating it with didnt change a thing and also not doing it, tried restart my phone, delete and download it over again and nothing seems to work
Did you try to open the app? Because the mobile version is an experimental build, so it's got those kind of bugs, so the file for some reason was built under the name Trapped with Jester. It's still the correct game when you open it though.
I did but it just happened the same thing
Like, the game is different?
Yeah, i might be doing it wrong tho, but i believe it feels like its just a update for Trapped with Jester at least thats how my phone keep seeing it as, nothing like your game
Ok, I tested it with the same conditions as yours and looks like you'd have to uninstall the original Jester game first before you can install the new file. It worked for me.
just finished the demo and obsessed with it. its so fun
omg been waiting for the full game to come out ever since 2023 like sheesh my mans my mans my mans (obsessed with Vicenzo)
I'm slow, but I'll keep working on it until I finish!💪
Dont worry, I'm slow as well, the way you're saying and the other kind lmaoo ooo I love narrow-eyed men. Also, take your time, hun! I can wait another year :D I just want you to be healthy so make sure to eat and sleep well! <333
THIS WAS SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD
ITS GOING TO BE SO PEAK!!!
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE FULL RELEASE THIS YEAR! TS gonna be so PEAK
I like this game so much,really much,but!..i want to say one thing .. the font is almost black,so,i almost cannot see it..
I'm not sure what you mean by almost black... the text box is light green/light violet/light gray, I'd understand if it's hard to see it if the textbox was dark?
Unless if you mean that the default font is too small? Then there's an alternate dyslexic font option.
Actually, in the website when you click "run game" on Android the text is not appearing, besides the options are really dark😭😭
Do you mean the browser? Are you trying to play the browser version on Android?
I don't think it's compatible. You would have to download the Android APK version.
Alright, thank you for telling me! I actually already played the game on Android, I'm waiting for the next update since it's my favorite vs.
I loved this game so much! Such a great demo that captivated my attention immediately. From the very start, I was excited to start the game since I love the reincarnation trope. Safe to say, I was super impressed by the quality of the demo! The art is beautiful and the story itself is extremely interesting. I love the balance of the actual plot and the romantic plot. In addition, the characters themselves are indeed memorable. I can't wait for the full release of the game! ₍₍⚞(˶˃ ᗜ ˂˶)⚟⁾⁾
I'm new to itch.io and this so far is my favorite game!
I first fell for Vicenzo, and I am hooked. I am willing to pay for the full version <3
is Eternal Blesssing of The Stars completely made up by you or did you have a game inspo for it? If so what game(s)?
It's made up with a mishmash of generic otome tropes, especially inline with how otome isekai usually portrays otome games... minus villainesses, because actual otome games rarely have those.
ohhhhh okkee thx for replying
I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
I LOVE THISSS! Ok so had to redo cause I realized that those were questions to answer
I would probably choose Vicenzo's route first. My favorite scene might've been the one in the garden with Estella. Those two are so cute!!! Yes I would probably pay. The only thing holding me back is cost cause I'm a brokie ;v; Lastly, yes. I think they're fine the way they are.
Thank youuuuuu!!!!
I LOVE VICENZOOOOOOOOOO
