I am attracted to this MC, and knowing he is going to lose his mind does not diminish my attraction. Send help.
The princess and her guard are cute too. Now i want a harem.
Just finished one playthrough and got True End. Looking forward to finding more!
Thanks for this excellent game! The art was nice, the writing polished and the music only enhanced the already creepy story. I like that we weren't bogged down with backstory, exposition or internal monologue; instead, we just hopped right in and focused on Val's struggles and his interactionss with the other characters. I also like that we're sometimes not sure what exactly is real and who exactly to trust. Highly recommend!
(I noticed one misspelling: nobel instead of noble.)
You did a really great job on this game!
Wow,this is an incredible work!
The art is amazing, both character designs and backgrounds (let's not even talk about the CGs). The music is also incredible, as well as the writting.
I really like these kind of stories, and it being ambientated in a royalty setting just makes you doubt everyone! The options were really well thought, as well as the different paths. Heck, I love multiple options games, and this one has lots of them, I really enjoyed just picking different ones to see their outcomes.
I got 3 endings, in the following order: The Angel of Death, the True Ending, and just for checking, Blood Sacrifice ending.
I do wonder about the others tho! Tried to get more but didn't quite got them just yet!
Gamepad support? Will you put on steam?
If there's an audience for that, id definitely consider porting it to steam!
Wow, that was really good. Character design made me stop whenever a new character appear. Loved the change in music when things got dark <3
Ahhh thank you so much!!
