Very well written game. I included it in my Touhou Jam 5 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Great story and great atmosphere! The pixellated assets work really well here.
I don't think it was your intention but I couldn't help but chuckle when the writing was being immersive and very well-paced in certain part, then you see the first silhouette in the story and "she" appears with a totally unexpected artstyle. Man, that sure was an entry! haha
Too bad the choices don't affect anything and the use of the folklore seems rather unrelated but the writing was very good.
PD: In the intro poem, "devil" doesn't rhyme.
Huhu, I thought the "devil" was a bit of a stretch too. I tried saying "downhill devil" to check but now it just makes me think of "her" joining a demolition derby.
Nice story with an interesting art style! The description on the jam page was a bit of a spoiler but nice nevertheless
Good writing and nailed the feel. It really drew me in, and I felt that returning-to-reality melancholy after it was over.
I think I just read the most engaging opening among the VN entries this time. Visuals and music also felt exactly what I normally expected from an actual VN.
Good presentation overall, although the the plot twist was a bit out of nowhere.
Uh, you might want to hide that spoiler.The funny thing is, within Touhou lore, it makes sense, to as certain degree since canonically, in a way that might spoil the ending for some people.
It doesn't seem to have a spoiler tag so I reworded it. Sorry about the trouble.
Game imploded when I pressed Help on the main menu on one occasion.
I swear that's just Flandre's destruction ability.
Loved the visuals, and the story was kind of unexpected! I wasn't sure if the choices have any impact on the story, but overall the atmosphere was very enjoyable.
