oh my god i was CLUTCHING at my pearls playing this game...it was SO good. i got so invested in it that when the 'to be continued' screen popped up it took me like five seconds to process!11! i don't know how you do it but your characters are always SO fun and likable like i was genuinely having a hard time picking between wren and jay like omgggg ;;;;

im also like a HUGE sucker for the setting of this game...all the old timey aesthetics is super cool!! sorry for going off but like im OBSESSED with the characters and how three dimensional they all feel, im ESPECIALLY super into robin!! i love how she's such a genuinely flawed person who can be super selfish and harmful to the people around her, but she has her own reasons for doing so. i love seeing women protags that are more self-centered, it's just such a breath of fresh air. i also honestly thought i would like jay the most at first but i think im falling super hard for wren....the TENSION between him and robin was AMAZING...romantic dynamics that play a chase of cat and mouse is always so entertaining. also the part where wren gets all embarrassed when robin pretty much declared war on him in part 1.........got ME all flustered. robin's really out here screaming "IM A TOP" from a rooftop and im here for it. 

weird tangent but im just SO EXCITED for this game....absolutely cant wait for part 3!!

also everyones said this to you and their mothers by now but ;; fletcher's too hot and i was QUAKING just seeing his sprite id love a route for him one day.........................

oh my goddd words can't describe how much fun i was having playing this game!!! this game is absolutely beautiful beyond words; i found myself just stopping my playthrough to stare at the game and appreciate not only it's art--but the GUI that you made for this!(i checked my playtime and i spent literally a solid 30 minutes of doing just that instead of reading dialogue. i got it bad) and not to mention, the designs for the characters aren't boring at all! everyone's designs are so indicative of their character from the get go(though i have to admit my fave is sebastien so far) also everyone in this game is such a looker??? my eyeballs just felt so pleased!! when i first looked at this, i was actually quite surprised to find that you're such a small studio! the amount of effort and love you put into this game makes it feel like this made by a much bigger studio/company, it's really quite astounding! from the demo alone, you can really tell that this is--and is going to be a very high quality game!

speaking of the characters, the writing for this game is so well-done! i really found myself immersed in the lore you made for this game, and the worldbuilding you've done for it. the whole concept of necromancers being used for such a purpose is actually quite cool! i'd love to actually read more about it in something like a book? also, not only did you make me so invested in the world of the game, i'm super smitten by the characters?? like throughout the game i've really come to appreciate all of them that i honestly am going to find it hard even deciding which person's route to start with! though, i will admit, my favorite introduction out of all the characters has DEFINITELY been kierdan. there was so much already said about his character from that one scene at the front desk, and the way he handled it was so telling of his core virtues. you can absolutely tell he genuinely cares about accommodating for people who actually need it; he's a sincerely very righteous person, underneath all that coldness! that scene in particular was so impressive, and really telling of your skills as a writer. it's hard to think of a scene in other dating sims that really capture the true essence of a character in just one scene! you really have a way with bringing characters to life, it's really impressive!

unfortunately, i'm a very broke high schooler, so i don't think i can back up the kickstarter--but i will definitely be keeping my eye on this game! it's been a while since i've enjoyed a game as much as this one, sorry for going on a little rant here OTL but i really wanted to let you know my feelings on this!! i can't wait to get a hold on the full game!! 

(im DESPERATELY hoping you reach your stretch goals because i would SELL my ORGANS to even be able to woo sebastian or jori ;A; we can do it guys WE CAN DO IT)

MY GOD it was just as good as i expected it to be :^)!! i've been following the development of this game on tumblr for a while, and i swear to god i absolutely went NUTS when i saw the demo was finally out!

i had tons of fun with the writing, i really liked that it's light and actually kind of comedic sometimes! not to mention you can tell TONS of care really went into writing these characters. even with this demo their personalities shined through so well! i honest to god was aiming for jaiden for the longest time while watching development--but when i played the game, i somehow fell for ALL of the guys? it's so hard for me to like ALL of the bachelors in a dating sim--but somehow, you guys caught me falling hard for all of them alsdkfsdjk!!! i definitely like all of them so far and tbh it's super tough to narrow them all down into a few--but i REALLY like dario and jeremy so far. as an asian person, too, though--i totally cringed at the part where the protagonist mispronounced jeremy's last name lol ;; but it really did show the little(and later, probably big) difficulties he has in a small-town environment as a foreigner! loved that!!

and the art is TOTALLY stunning!! it's so nice on the eyes and it makes me feel super relaxed. not to mention the colors are so fantastic and i just honestly REALLY like staring at the art! there were even a few times where i'd stop the game to admire the art!!! not gonna lie, i was slightly disappointed we probably can't date the girls, because they're so super cute--BUT i'll live because the boys are just as cute sgsdskd

this game just feels really refreshing, and i really loved the setting you guys took with it! the victorian era is a highly underappreciated era with games like this and i'm SO excited to see how you guys go with this! even with the demo i know i'm going to love and get super attached to these characters!! thank you for working so hard on this game--the care everyone put into this really pays off! i'll be keeping a regular on this!!! :^)

GOSH this game was sosososo good! The art style is just stunning, the writing just flows so well, I totally enjoyed this all the way through and I'm like SO ANTSY for part two, no joke!! One of my favorite VN's on this site; I honestly can't stop foaming at the mouth over for this. Just curious, though, are there any endings where Joyce doesn't leave? To say I was absolutely torn when they left would be an understatement--I'm VERY sure I'm still recovering. xDD

But anyways, this game is great! Teal's just such a relatable MC, and so many moments of this just really hit straight home for me. I'll definitely be following the development for this!

this was honestly very enjoyable so far!! it was a blast to play through--and can i just say the art was SO pleasing to my eyes?? i don't know, but there's something about the characters designs and backgrounds that made me feel very relaxed and soothed, haha! xD. i'm in love with the characters a lot, and so do a few friends i played this with. they're practically all my favorites, but i'm mostly really into rudolph and blitzen, they're such pumpkins!! i'll definitely be following how this progresses! thank you so so much for the pleasant teaser! <3
