Hi, I played this game on Steam. And I gotta say, this is one of my new favorite VN's! In fact, I'm adding it to my list of my top 5 favorite VN's of all time :D
Eu joguei esse jogo quando ele ainda tinha acabado de sair, e a prova que a sua escrita é poderosa é que ele permanece fresco na minha cabeça até agora. Eu realmente quis chorar em algumas cenas pois relacionamento entre os personagens é simplesmente ótimo, te faz sentir. A cena do origami praticamente me quebrou.
Eu ainda tenho que me organizar pra comprar a DLC mas vale muito a pena cada centavo pra quem quiser uma boa história que fica com você.
Nossa, que incrível que o jogo ficou contigo por tanto tempo! Isso me toca muito. Houveram diversas atualizações nos últimos tempos que melhoraram a experiência ainda mais, mas saber que você curtiu tanto mesmo o jogo original deixa meu coração quentinho. <3

Omg, this was so fun!! I love multiple endings, and was very confused when I saw that there was only one save file and it was the automatic ones. That is, until I finished my first run, click 'start' and SURPRISE GUYS !!! IT'S A LOOP GAME !! I love those kind of games because it makes it so fun to get new endings. I got the first 5 very straightforward, and noted them down for my bookmark to add this to my collection lol BTW, I named myself Riolle, my gf Toomy and my bestie Diana, why? Rikka had Diana vibes to me, I have just acquired the name Riolle for myself when playing games, and Toomy is my platonic husband lmao. I knew as soon as I met Toomy in game that she was a little screw loose, but hey, what can ya do. Here's my notations for each ending lmao
Ending #1 "A Match Made In Hell": Done by selecting 'inspect doll further' (for direct ending anyway, you can also choose other options for deeper knowledge) Ending #2 "I'll Support You": Don't reset, ask "Know any good movies?", select "yes", "I'll tell her" Ending #3 "Lone Crane" : Continue not resetting, no choices shown this route Ending #4 "999 More": Continue not resetting, no choices shown this route, however, POV switch !! Ending #5 "True End": Continue not resetting, oop MC real messed up now RIP ENDING "Blossoming Memories": Inspect the right room in first playthrough for the photo, ask Diana about cherry blossom spots ENDING "In Which Everything Is Normal": Don't tell Diana about your favourite genre to watch
Lion is my baby boy and I treasure him so much. I like the detail that by choosing to investigate more, we learn about bullying occurring, and that unlocks an extra cutscene on the rooftop where Lion gets to interact with Toomy's friend. That's what I love about games that utilise this "reset" but characters Remember gimick !! It's so neat.
Your character designs are so simple and so neat !! The character dynamics are just, peak. Everything is So Good !! I love the fact Lion knows and is crushing on Riolle because they comment gory details for their site to get past the no image filter. He wants a Friend and MAYBE smth more !! Bless him, I'd be besties with him if I could. He's a sweetheart. PLUS! Who doesn't like someone who can origami ??? Toomy, apparently. Girlie can't handle a guy having a crush and trying to ask the homie out because no one knows Toomy and Riolle are a Couple. See, guys, this is why communication is important--
First playthrough, I was like "ooo who dis" when getting to Lion's perspective, I was excited bcuz I love when POV switches happen. It just invigorates me ya know !! I love learning about new / side characters, and Lion was no exception !! Learning his name in the loop after his POV was so rewarding, dude, I was SO excited to learn his name.
One of the lines that's gonna stick with me from now on, is when Lion says "Or do you still think what she did to me was a gift?" Like, DAMN, nail that right into my heart why dontcha. That whole final run was unnerving, with Riolle's silence with their cheshire grin we first saw in the first playthrough after Toomy admitted to the murder. It really adds to that building tension that smth is Wrong, that Riolle isn't okay. That was a building concept throughout the other playthroughs, with the detail changes like the eyebags, the internal dialogue discussing things Riolle shouldn't know, but that last runthrough just takes the cake for unnerving design. The way no one acts like anything is wrong, specifically Diana. Sharing her food with Riolle, and Lion being the one to finally crack and point out how Riolle hasn't MOVED at all, just going place-to-place, before settling back down and conceding to just. . .Make a paper crane with the colourful paper Diana grabbed.
This whole thing is such cool storytelling, and I'm so in love with it. Thank you for making this :D !! I really enjoyed the time I took to play through it. Have a splendid timezone <333
I feel SUPER bad that I took so long to reply to this amazing, super thought out comment aaaaa!!! My heart is warm and full ;w; I’m SO happy you enjoyed the game this much!!
Comments like yours are what keeps me going when my brain is being mean to me. The fact that this lil project touched you this way is so amazing!! Thank you for playing!
Spoilers for the game ahead, please try to play it first.
Just finished it. I really didn't expect this. I was... honestly groaning at first when I saw the GF was a typical Yandere who overreacts, and thought that the title was about her after all, not the protagonist. But the twist of the Protagonist actually liking Gore and taking the murder as a gift was enough to let me back in. I laughed at first of confusion, but then came the other endings.
I think it's a good deconstruction. The use of repeat playthroughs was chilling and well-done. I particularly liked seeing the change in perspective of run 4 and 5. I think it's the first time I actually saw the Yandere trope used in a meaningful way. Showing her as someone who can understand the protagonist's most shameful desires and be there for them, only to have the different perspectives of run 2 and 4 snatch that away, show that you can have friends who are disgusted by gore and violence but who will support you because they know you're good, or other people who like taboo stuff and will bond with you over it. The result is to show that, no, the love of a yandere is unhealthy, even there. There can be no ending as long as she is around.
The mental deterioration of the protagonist was well done too. The background becoming fuzzier, the loops... the constant smiling without saying anything was creepy. There is that sense of guilt, self-hatred piling up. Ash was relieved to find someone who would understand them (even if finding the murder of your best friend hot was a bit out of it) only to have to face what they said in the new context... and wanting desperately to end this.
The ending is bitter. ...
...I liked this. It was much more than I anticipated. Thank you. I'll probably let this... sink in and get the sequel.
Thank you for playing. I’m glad this game touched you in some way. I often wonder if I managed to convey the message I was trying to send with this game properly, so reading your comment was a huge relief. Thank you :D
Hello I played this game a year or 2 ago and I just wanted to say it meant a lot to me and it was really unique and I appreciate the developer for making this. Thank you
Just for the sake of completion, was Turkish accidentally removed? I saw it was added in a previous update, but I don't see it as an option in v2.5. Also, selecting any language besides English makes all the other languages disappear (or turn black?) making it harder to switch back or to another.
Hah! I figured out what was causing the bug - the translated strings were left empty in each translation. It’s been fixed and I’m uploading a build right now! Thank you for letting me know.

Wow. I'm floored.

Hello
I played this game a year or 2 ago and I just wanted to say it meant a lot to me and it was really unique and I appreciate the developer for making this.
Thank you
Thanks for playing!! Your comment means a lot to me. I’m glad this game means something to you ;w;
Cacetada. Isso aqui — especialmente o true ending— foi do balacobaco. Parabéns de verdade pelo ótimo jogo. Muito pica.
Oxe, valeu, camarada hasuahsuahau sempre legal ouvir de jogadores brasileiros que curtem o jogo!
Wait where is the sixth ending? I got only five ending and credit rolled.
You probably missed the one you get from not telling Rikka the truth, or the one about the cherry blossoms.
Just for the sake of completion, was Turkish accidentally removed? I saw it was added in a previous update, but I don't see it as an option in v2.5.
Also, selecting any language besides English makes all the other languages disappear (or turn black?) making it harder to switch back or to another.
The Turkish translation hasn’t been updated with the new content, so it’s been removed for now :(
As for the language thing, I’ll take a look at it as soon as possible!
EDIT: I see it. Man, that’s a weird bug. I swear it was working fine a couple months ago…
Hah! I figured out what was causing the bug - the translated strings were left empty in each translation. It’s been fixed and I’m uploading a build right now! Thank you for letting me know.
I love this game really nice work the history its juste amazing and the true end and all the end in general are amazing thanks you for this game <3

New patch is up!
Thanks!<3
