Very 2001: A Space Odyssey vibes. Really nice short read which feels especially relevant given what's going on in the world re: AI now...
Actually, that made it a little more depressing to experience haha, but obviously it's not supposed to be a cheery story...
Though it was a short experience, the characters are all well-rounded and likeable (yes, even Parvati haha). They're all complex, with their own strengths and weaknesses, and they're pretty expressive. For a free VN, the cast have a lot of poses which really adds to how dynamic this whole experience is!
Ah, I really like the UI in this VN too. The general layout is just chef's kiss: it really adds to the dystopian future tech vibe (um... even though the story takes place in 2017 lol, oh no, the dystopia is here already..........) The use of SFX in the UI is nice too, and the music is very moody! Every single aspect of this is very cohesive!!! I love how the clock in the upper right updates with in-game time too; it's a really nice feature.
Oh, and I really liked the one CG of Fang lying in bed with the light playing on her face: it's a really pretty CG which really pops.
There really is a lot of attention to detail in the look and sound of this VN; I can tell a lot of thought went into it!
If I had to criticise anything, I'd say maybe the endings feel a bit short and perfunctory... Buuuuut this is a free VN, and it's already plenty polished, so it's not a downside at all.
This is a really nice little VN; you did a great job! Thank you for sharing it! <3
