I adored this game so much, it has such a phenomenal style and the story was so compelling, I know I'll still be thinking about it for a while in the future! What a delightful silly and cruel horrible terrifying world you made, fuck yeah

Also I wanted to ask, I'm not really familiar with this engine you used but how hard was it to make the 3d environments here? How were they made? I'm curious about how these sorts of features were done in what seems to be primarily a visual novel engine. If there's any documentation you could provide for it that would be awesome!!

Either way, really I'm looking forward to seeing your future projects!!

Thank you very much, I love your thoughts on it, n I’m glad you enjoyed it!

Light VN uses object files for its 3D mode so I just made the 3D models in Blender and exported it as an object. Blender is nice to make environments in, arranging shapes with textures on them is fun :3

Ohhhhhh ok awesome!! Tysm for the response c: For some reason I assumed the engine had a more complicated way of doing it haha

This game is a work of art, truly. It feels like an experience rather than a game, I felt all sorts of emotions playing it.

i played your game a few days ago and I'm still thinking about it. the short length didn't bother me much, as i found it to be very engaging and meaningful. i can tell you put a lot of effort into this project. the story had a strong emotional effect on me and felt relatable. it struck a lot of fear in me but i mean this in the best way possible. 

you did great. especially considering the time restraints. I recommend people play this to the end as that's what truly shines here.

Thank you very much for the kind words, I’m glad you felt the emotions in it, I appreciate your thoughts of it!!
