Hi Anwynn,

No worries! Thanks for taking the time to play our games, it means a lot. 💖

About m/m romance, it's a very popular topic. Projects we've made in this genre, sold many copies, but we didn't have the same luck with our straight romance games! :(

About the link to the free game, it was the Turquoise Jewel Sale. In order to access, one needs Max's Aquarium and Broken Hearts' Resort, and the free game was the Lucky Lottery Ticket. If you're interested in any of those, we can make the links available to you through this reviewer program. Just let me know!

By the way, we're also hoping to develop f/f games, and we've just finished the first one! It was supposed to be released on Halloween, but eventually we decided to publish earlier. Perhaps you'd like to review it later when you finish with BFF2BAE? It's Time Travel Tea, about two witches, short and cute.

Regarding Max's Aquarium, you've bought this game, so no pressure to review if you don't have time! 

Take care! 💚

Hi Rachel

Thank you for your kindness 🙏🤗💖

Oh, I understand it needed both of the games not only one,  I guess I did not paid enough attention to the message on the moment, That surprising, I would have thought all romances would sell more or less all the same 🤔🙏

I would be happy to play Time Travel Tea definitely 💖

Sure I could try one of the m/m visual novel after🙏

By the way I cannot contact anyone through steam  because I never bought anything which seems to be the way to unlock contact with others, just wanted to let you know (the only time I tried I could not due to some procedure not working)

Take care 💖

Hi Anwynn,

Yeah, we are surprised too! But perhaps, there's just more competition for straight romance games, I don't know!

I have seen that you have already bought the Time Travel Tea, before I even managed to respond, thanks so much for this purchase! 💖 I hope you enjoyed the game. Would you like to play Magical Mooncakes for free, in exchange for a review? It's also a f/f romance. I can send you the link anytime if you are interested, just let me know!

Btw, if you play f/f romance, perhaps you could let us know what types of games you'd like to see in this genre, what plots, etc.? Contemporary, or historical, or fantasy?

About Steam, oh, I didn't know it! How about if you downloaded a free game there, the chat still doesn't work?

I know, I  should at least get a discord, it would help me get in touch with people from here, but then I get busy doing projects and forget the social hahaha. Anyway, I'll think of something so that we can send messages and talk more! It's a pity that itch.io doesn't have a messenger inbox, it would be so great!

Hi Rachel 🌞

I not played yet Time Travel Tea but its the next that I will play when finding the time.

For steam it seems I have to buy something to be able to contact anyone. I downloaded things from free already and it does not change anything.

I sure would love to play Magical Mooncakes too 💖💖

I guess for straight romance there  lot of competition 🤔🤔

For the types in F/F romance I think I played a bit of everything mostly fantasy though, some dark ones but I rather avoid playing such too much, my life is dark enough as it is. i mostly like fantasy science fiction with a bit of funny along. a bit of laugh along in any stories is a good thing.

Discord could be nice for contact with anyone playing visual novels from your team, I think 🙏🙏

A messenger inbox would be nice on itchio definitely

I'm sending you the download key for Magical Mooncakes. Sorry it took so long! 🥮🌙

About Steam, it's a pity! I'll let you know when I reinstate my old Discord account. I have to look for it, I haven't used it in a century hahaha.

Lastly, thanks so much for the suggestions about what types of games to make! We will take it into consideration for sure. 🙏

Hi Anwynn,

I hope you are well! We have just released our new, episodic game about mermaids, "Mermaid Princess Amelia and the Lost Symphony." 🧜🏻‍♀️🐠 Would you like to give the first episode a try? It is an adventure game, a visual novel with some simple point and click elements. You get to explore the mermaid world a little, and meet some international characters. It has some scary moments but ultimately everything ends well. We can send you a free download key if you'd like to review it. 💖

Cheers!

Hello Rachel 🌞

I am alright and you?  

I sure would love to try this first episode of your new mermaid story 🙂🙂🧜🏻‍♀️🐠🌊

I sure can review it if you let me play it, as always whether I buy the visual novel myself or if you offer like this 🤗

Discovering new stories and helping at the same time is something I like 🤗

If there are others you would like me to play and review you can always ask me 🙂🙂🌞

Hi Anwynn,

I'm glad that you're feeling better! 😊 How is your game making journey going? Are you still working with RPG Maker? I'd like to learn it but tile-based games seem difficult to me. 😅

Thanks so much for your interest in our game! 💖I'm happy you'd like to try it out. Here's the download key: https://hasalynxgames.itch.io/mermaid-princess-amelia-and-the-lost-symphony-epis...

I hope you enjoy it! Happy New Year! ✨

I do not know if and when I would try again to make anything with RPG Maker but if I do then will try to finish a short story I had started, I could say the same for games with Renpy.

From my point of view learning basic things with RPG Maker is harder than basic things with Renpy, RPG Maker has more issues within the program than I ever seen in Renpy.  It is two different ways to tell a story. While Renpy and Tyranobuilder are more focused on the visual, RPG Maker is more focused on rpg obviously.

My two latest stories with RPG Maker, while keeping the default battle system of rpg maker and fighting along the way, I not made it as simply a rpg with random battles/ unlimited battle, the number of battles is set and not gaining XP to build the character more, the battles are just part of the story, it is a way I liked to do. 

We can totally make a story without any battles and all the rpg elements with rpg maker, then we mainly keep the visual of rpg maker for the story.

Are you planning to try out RPG maker?

By the way I noticed that the mermaid princess is said to be 15 years old then a bit below 16 years old. obviously a typing mistake 🧜🏻‍♀️🙏
