I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GAME!!!
First off the art is gorgeous! Just utterly beautiful designs for both the characters and the setting, especially when building up horror. Also I like the little instances of animation, it makes the eyes incredibly unsettling. The use of font colours and animations is also really good, it adds a lot of emotion to what's being said and the highlighting of certain words made me very uncomfortable.
I really enjoyed the writing here, it was a lot of fun and full of personality while still building a lot of dread throughout. Our protagonist feels very realistic and relatable, a lot of the things they said were things I'd probably say in that situation. It was very easy to connect and feel bad for everything they went through. I actually winced at how bad the limbs were broken and when describing the feeling of the eyes you painted some very unsettling images that made me feel like I was going a bit mad (eyes crawling inside you is not a mental picture I ever wanted, and that's coming from someone who loves body horror). The world building too is something that I need more of, the little details you give raise so many questions. Magic is an established thing that is known to have side effects and only a few people use it, plus multiple fantasy races live in this world, yet technology has also got to the point of putting camera lenses in people's eyes? I am fully invested in this particular story but I would be open to seeing more stories in this setting to see more of how the world works.
Corvin of course is the highlight. Will fully admit I downloaded this because of the yandere tag (I'm a bit of a sucker for these kind of stories) but I don't think I've ever read a yandere story where the love interest starts out as terrifying and then reveals their nice side. It genuinely caught me off guard, especially because just like the protagonist Corvin feels really genuine and relatable. He wasn't Mr Perfect and Charming straight off the bat; he got frustrated and anxious and genuinely felt like someone trying his best to help in a bad situation, even when he made things worse. After my first playthrough I felt nothing but warmth towards him and honestly forgave the horror he put me through. Then I replayed it to see the dialogue options I missed it reminded me of his line "When you wake, you will forgive me.", and now I'm starting to think I got manipulated. It's been a long time since a character made me feel like that, which is a testament to how well-written he is. Unsure what to expect from him going forward but I am here for it!
I don't think I have enough words to describe how much I love this. I will be eagerly waiting to see what happens next and I'm excited to see any other work you release. This has immediately shot up there as one of my favourite visual novels.
