Great game!
I found out you can skip gameplay segments with the "Skip" button, which means you can speed run the 2nd ending by clicking skip 4 times XD.
Good things about the game: Visuals + Music + Gameplay + The other stuff (everything)
Bad things about the game: "Can you hold my umbrella for m-" "NOO." "why?" "...it's compilated"

I was looking forward to your game this week, and you didn't disappoint! The story was cute. I like visual novels already, but I really liked that you snuck in some gameplay, too. And your graphics are always so well done! In particular, I liked the music staff over the gameplay segments to show how long you had left. I played it and got both endings. Awesome 🎉

(Also - you worked for 15 hours this weekend?! That's some serious effort!! 💪)

Wow great job! The art is awesome, that second song is a total shredder, did you make it?

Great that you were able to add gameplay to your visual novel this time, nice work!

Thanks! Two "Toxic Biohazard" presets hard carried the drop for song 2, but I did arrange the beats and play with syncopation at least, haha. It has been really fun just to turn my brain off and do whatever, musically. For one portion at the end there I was literally arranging it visually based on how the pattern looked in the DAW, lmao!

I did not enjoy the game, but I still think the art, design and effort to make it was a fantastic effort and is great submission.

Made it to the second umbrella minigame twice and died both times. Lovely visuals and the writing isn’t too bad, either. Well done!

I'm not really one for Visual Novels but I enjoyed this. The story was fun and the gameplay was fun. Good Job :D

Very cool entry. Love the hand drawn artsyle and the story. Lilith is a good choice for the theme.

My god! I loved it! Great story, I really liked to follow it. I was a really mega plus that I could play it on my Android device browser! To me was a really important mechanic that I could skip the story once I've read it once. And the umbrella mini game I also liked it. It was hard enough to be fun. The last one, when you try to kill her, could be more random. I found it easier than the first two ones. 

I reaaaaally really liked the art. Loved it. And the music! It was dynamic.

Congrats, man!

Hey, your game stood out to me as well because of the story-based theme. I appreciate your commenting. I'm glad you noticed the dynamic audio, too, haha. Another story-based entry worth checking out is analogecho's. I know you're into React right now, but if you ever wanted to try for a more conventional visual novel, Renpy is a super intuitive engine that covers the bulk of the overhead. Looking forward to your next project regardless!

I'm not a huge VN player but really enjoyed your submission. I like the fact that you introduced gameplay. Its a bit laggy on the web version tho, but I think it might come from the engine (is it renpy?).
Art and music are top notch! Congrats :)
