Laxy this was so sweet! I know I already told you I had written a comment a few days ago but must have closed the page because I didn't hit post. I'll try and remember what details I can, but I do remember i thought Varem was so sweet. you write these really cute little beans of main characters and I spend most of the game so worried for them haha. I agree with Egg's point about wishing to have seen the performance at the end, after all that buildup. And as always I think your art has such a nice style to it!! It feels like stop motion or like construction paper cutout art. It's very neat and original and sticks out.

I enjoyed the story. I liked how the Varem interacted with everyone and his little backstory about his parents. I liked Lara too and well done with her close up really liked it. Now for the main Devil Motto, I wish I knew more about him, how he more gained his powers (in more detail) and more about the crystals and how everyone uses them. The intro to Motto was also real nice, with the slow reveal of him the man who will eat you alive if you don't do good enough. I really hoped there would be a bit more horror but the slow build up was enjoyable.

But now let's talk about the some problems.
In some parts I can't really see what's happening because it's too dark
I really hoped there would be more rocks. Now I know what your thinking but I really wanted more rocks, I think I only saw one and I really wanted to see more, maybe like a little pile of rocks next to his house or inside to later the reveal that he's been eating those. (I may be obsessed with rocks)

Yeah I think that's all, I really liked the game keep it up.

This was pretty cute! I was a little bummed at how it ended abruptly right before we got to see Varem's performance. I feel like this was a big buildup to something really great, though! I'd love to see it more fleshed out or to see how the story continues beyond what we see in this game (:

I will say, some parts of the text took me out of immersion a bit, mostly due to some grammatical errors and my personal thoughts about using the  typing/writing style of "Yeah" as "yea"- it makes the writing feel somewhat amateurish, if that makes sense? But not a big issue! That, and the absence of punctuation threw me off a bit as well. 

Another thing; without the usual arrow at the bottom (or other indicator in the default System/Menu settings), it was hard to tell when a character was done talking or if the sequence/scene was going to continue without key input (basically, i sat there after a character was done talking with their talk window still open bc I wasn't sure if it was going to clear itself haha)

I liked the artwork, but some parts were a bit dark- I wasn't sure what I was looking at in certain points, but I think that's forgivable due to them being in a cave-like system. Also, I feel this would've benefited from having maybe more CG/character graphics during the sitting and chatting scene with the tomatoes- it felt a bit empty in my mind, but I did enjoy the casual conversation. I also liked how Varem was obviously still mourning the loss of his parents, but was steeled in that he knew he had to continue for their sake- very nice! I also liked how his hair is just everywhere and how he eats rocks, hahah what a silly little guy (:

Thanks for sharing! <3
