Elftwitch, your art is gorgeous as always! I really enjoyed Bea, your OC, and I thought the storytelling through texts was done well! I only got 2 endings, and one was *much* darker than the other! I would maybe suggest different fonts/text box backgrounds to differentiate between characters. My biggest concern with the game was around the personality of one of the characters, but I think that's more of a personal thing and not necessarily something that detracts from the game. I hope you keep working on this! I would love to see anything additional you bring to Bea's story. Thank you for your submission!

Jess I'm so thrilled you played this on stream and I would love to make more content and continue the story! I hope you will like the sequel too. Naturally there are more endings there, but again also a canon one.
Coloring the text was something I would have loved to do, but it was not possible without too much fuss and with that much dialogue. I agree about the personalities (of more than one character in fact). It's like this with a lot of visual novels, they make you react with: I would not deal with this. On the other hand if the characters were "normal" options or were instantly turned down, there would be no story to tell. Plus, even if VNs are not life advice in any way, they show a lot of things people burden themselves and others with, even if its in a dramatic manner. It's rather meant to make you think and look closer.
Thanks again for the games jam and the presentation! This has been so much fun.
