Yeah, I agree with Dareka Devu. (The person below me) Adding choices would increase interactivity of your visual novel.
Other than that, story-wise...damn...that was quite depressing. I guess this shows the tragedy of a lonely person trying to find companionship, only to be betrayed for someone else's greed.
I honestly feel conflicted about the art, it kinda seems unpolished, yet somewhat charming? Idk. However, you clearly put in the effort making a unique UI for the Renpy engine, good work.
All in all, a short and decent depressing visual novel with an esoteric art style.
Edit: Mistake in words
"esoteric" is certainly a word to describe my "art-style". but thanks for enjoying the other aspects of it!
I umderstand that its some kind of a novel... But aren't we supposed to have choices. Its just a novel. Not game. Or maybe I play it wrong way. Add some plot twists / choices
yep! it's just a short story; i promise future things of mine will have genuine interactivity though
Oh . Ok. Wish you good luck
What a wonderful storytelling idea!
Really loved the way it's written. The choice of music fitting perfectly the story. I was unfortunately not expecting something as great when I first saw the ad-picture. My thought: maybe that's something to work on and make it as attractive as it is interesting and deep?
