So far this VN is so polished and well-put together! I understand why you'd want to take the necessary time to finish scene 4, this is really good so far. Besides the programming and sound/visual design, the concept of the story itself and the characters are so real and vibrant it really jumps out at you.
It's... not an easy story to read, but I mean that in a good way. Scene 2 especially was a harsh slap to the face, one I wasn't expecting to but which was very effective in what it wanted to do, I assume. I won't say I haven't drawn conclusions already, and it's probably not surprising that I don't like HL much after that scene, but it made her a much more deep and real character. Great writing for making me hate it like that (?
And I'm sure there'll be a lot more of that. It's exactly the kinda stuff I wanna see in visual novels. It's disturbing and real and anxiety-inducing, all the things I love in media. And with really good game design to boot. I wanna hug X2-0 and Lynda, they deserve the world.
Also I love that HL sleeps with her hat on. Perfectly ridiculous.
Loving this so far!!! I'll follow you and wait patiently for the rest of the game to come.
