Wirklich sehr hübsches Visualnovel mit vielen Details und Animationen die einen Schritt weiter gehen als die meisten in diesem Genre. Die Musik ist nicht schlecht. Der Artstyle ist unique und insgesamt die Welt schön anzusehen. Bisher knallt aber die Geschichte nach 30 Minuten noch nicht wirklich und verläuft ein wenig zäh.

On this info page, you have Pronouns, which is great, but it's misspelt as 'pronounce' (which is how you would sound a word out, like pronouncing my name correctly). Just thought you'd want to know if it's not already been spotted!

Thank you for pointing out the mistake! It's been fixed!

This was lovely! The art was absolutely gorgeous and magical. The music was pretty and really enhanced the mood. The story was interesting and went in directions I wasn't expecting. I almost cried a couple times. So far I've only seen Lucian's endings and Blaze's ending, but I plan to go back for the rest!

If I could make a suggestion? I'd love a gallery so that I could go back and look at the unlocked artwork and also just see the full versions of the pictures that scan down the screen.

Thank you for playing the game and for your comment! Happy to hear you enjoyed it!

That's a great suggestion! I'll see if I can implement the gallery soon))

hello! first of all, I really like your game. your artstyle is amazing and the story was very good till the end! <3

(for everyone, who haven't finish the game please be aware, that my comment might spoil you)

I am a bit confused about the endings though. there are supposed to be 7 different endings. I haven't played all routes yet (only Iris and Lucian) and I think, that Iris, Blaze, Olli and Audrey have one 'good' ending each. I found 2 ending for Lucian (one with an good outcome, one with a less good one) so I am missing 1 ending (or more the idea/hint how to find it). Can you tell me, if Lucian's route has a third ending (so that he has sort of a bad, a good and a true ending or something like that, since for me he seems to be a main love interest for Elliot ) or is the one I'm missing on someone else's route? like is there a complete neutral ending?

and I wonder about the purpose of the Ouija-game. is this some kind of 'you need to ask certain things and the Ouija will reveal s.th.'? or is there nothing important to discover at all, so it's just for fun?  

greetings :D

Hello! Thank you for your comment and for playing the game!

(There is going to be a little spoiler for the game endings after this text)



.....

Lucian has two endings Good and Neutral. Iris, Blaze, Audrey, and Ollie all have one Good ending and one Bad ending (if you don't have enough points by the end of the game), but this Bad ending is mostly the same for all of them, with a very slight difference depending on the character you are with at the moment.

So the ending you are looking for is the Bad ending for any of the characters except Lucian.

The Ouija is just a mini-game, you can ask some specific questions as well

Example: 

What do you think about Elliot?

What is your name?

etc

Hope it was helpful))

yes, it was helpful. thank you very much for your reply!  :)

I've really enjoyed playing this game :) Everyone and everything is just... so cute and the plot's really, really, really entertaining. I'm so looking forward to seeing what else you guys got to show us

Unfortunately, I can't help but wonder if the game is currently on hiatus or if maybe it was abandoned all together :( Hoping that's not the case, though
