oh wow i wasn't expecting a reply from the creator, that's good to know! you're a very talented solo dev, i've never seen someone pull off coding, writing, art and voice acting!
hi sorry is this still being worked on? the last devlog is six months ago, would be neat if there was a progress report for those of us who have preordered but didn't have access to early beta builds.
Yup! It is! Sorry for the lack of updates. The announcement for the pause of devlog updates was in another game's devlog.
For more frequent updates, you can check my Bsky or Twitter account! The latest post I've done on this game on my Bsky account was 11days ago, and before that was around 2 months ago.
LOVEDDDDDDDDDD this game. The voice acting was really good for when it was there.
The character design was beautiful. Especially the mcs and the white hair guy o(〃^▽^〃)o. The mls were cute too but i REALLY REALLY liked the white hair guy whos with pink hair girl ( Im really bad w names)
I played this game on Android, and here are my thoughts!
Storyline:
The story is really engaging—it made me want to keep going just to find out what would happen next! The number of bad endings is insane (in a good way), and I actually love that. It really makes every decision feel like it matters, and that adds a lot of weight to the choices you make.
UI:
I found the UI a little tricky to navigate on mobile. The buttons (like save, load, etc.) felt a bit small, and I had a hard time tapping them accurately. I think the hitboxes might be a little bit tiny—just something to consider for better accessibility. (Though it might just be a me problem.)
Bugs:
I did notice a few bugs, like some scenes replaying after I load a save. It’s nothing too major, and I’m guessing it’ll be fixed in future updates.
Characters:
I love the villains—they’re written so well and really stand out. Super memorable and intense!
Overall, I’m really looking forward to where this game goes next. Great work!
About the Android UI, I did address that in the FAQs, and here as well. The current version is a direct port just so Android-only players can play for now. Thank you for testing it out❤️
Vincenzo's, definitely. I quite enjoy how snakey he is. He's quite powerful even if he appears harmless. I would love to see him be vulnerable at some point in the game (assuming the story allowed it) (yes, i'm saying make him cry, for fun). Edel seems very interesting too and, from reading other people's comments, he seems quite popular too, so I'd obviously play his route too. Still, hands down, Vincenzo first.
-What's your favorite scene/event?
I've seen someone say nothing jumps out, but actually I quite enjoyed the scene where MC is talking to the prince in Vincenzo's garden. If you choose to hold back, he will make a remark about Vincenzo being a snake and "moving fast" (although he doesn't seem like he'd be better than him), then the count swoops in to put an end to the interaction. If you choose to punch him, however, Vincenzo swoops in right away.
-Are you interested in playing the full release?
(The full game will be PAID)
Yes. Honestly, I usually come to itch.io because I enjoy being able to play great games without having to pay for them or, if the game is behind a paywall, there's usually a free DEMO of it on the creator's page. I grew up poor, so I'm always hesitant to pay for things like games. This is mostly out of fear of having "wasted money" if I end up enjoying them less than I thought I would. Playing this DEMO, I feel that it would be worth my money.
-Are the LIs villainous enough for you?
As of right now, they're both shrouded in mystery, so it's hard to discern whether they're "villainous" enough. Vincenzo reads as a manipulative, dangerous man, while Edel seems to always be one wrong word from murdering MC for his own amusement, so I would say so.
I think writing villains is quite hard when the public is meant to love them, if you make them too evil, they might become hard to enjoy, but if you make them too god they'll just be antiheroes. Still, I feel like you've found the perfects balance with both Edel and Vincenzo.

It's in the FAQs, but note that it may be subject to change.
