Hi. I'm looking for reviewers for a while and I found your thread.
If visual novels are your cup of tea, you could feature my VN’s demo. It shows the first chapter with two premature ends.

Hi there Mia, I will be posting this on your page game too in case you missed this! I want to say that your game is so good! I have played the demo and had about 40 minute of worth content for a great gameplay review video! However, it was corrupted and all is lost! The amount of joy and sadness I got from this game was so great and I captured the perfect reactions of me in a long time! Although is lost, I tried to re-record another one but there was a threat detected and it tried to change my log files! So I had to drope the recording idea!
I really loved your game and it has to be one of the greatest visual novels I have played! Great voice acting and I believe it is yours! I did checked your channel and been watching some videos and I am interested to see more of your contents. I had both endings by the way! The first one was so fast I thought that is it XD
The "threat detected" are false postives by a couple of antivirus. Something to do with ren'py and the way it works. I posted a topic about it.
"I made a full scan here: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/6702bbb07156d090569cc0320e73b78c7a882cdcc2d362d3bc2ff24e211d52cc
Only Cylance and Jiangmin show "unsafe". If your antivirus show "unsafe", it's a false positive. The game is clean. No virus."
It should not touch your log files. As for the voice acting, it's by Chloé Guerin.
I'll still ask on the Ren'py discord 'cause the whole log file issue is strange.
Update: Get this awnser. "I think it [ren'py] writes to its own log file as it starts up, but what might aggravate anti-virus on Windows is using self-voicing because I think that tries to write a vbscript file and then execute it." My game don't use self-voicing by default but it does use the "voice" audio channel.
Update again (so sorry) : Maybe the Steam demo might not give you troubles, then again it's the same files.
Hi there again Mia, I have changed my recording software and did so many tests to finally be able to record your gameplay walkthrough review! I know you have been through hard times in order to promote your game, and I know you are about to give up many times, espacially that you invested a lot of money on this project! Just keep going because you already invested a lot, promote the game with every single day! Sometimes a game does not do well at the start and after few weeks or months it blows up! I really hope all the best for you and your little 4 magical girls!
It is a very powerful game and I was able to relate to many topics!
