Ahh, man, that’s so cool! :3 Sometimes I worry that with YH being a fandub project, it might actually end up putting people off of checking out my other stuff since it’s not a very accurate reflection of most of my projects >.< so it’s good to hear that that wasn’t the case for you :D 

YH has quite a lot of 1* ratings, haha. It’s got plenty of 5* ratings too, thankfully, which helps balance out the overall rating here. A lot of the 1* ratings are so mean though with people saying stuff like “It’s too short”... well, yeah, each volume = 1 CD and it’s still in development, so of course it’s short T_T Still took me hours and hours of work to make it >.< And then most of the other 1* ratings are people saying they think the story sucks, characters suck, it’s too goofy, etc. and none of that is my fault cos I’m just localising the original Japanese content T_T haha.

Weeeell, I have actually burnt out multiple times x3 hehe. Usually though, it’s not just as a result of working too much on these projects, but a mixture of not taking enough breaks + being overwhelmed by life stuff >.< Like last year, I was going into complete shutdown mode shortly after finishing Spooktober Jam. By the end of October, I was pretty much unable to even find the motivation to go on my PC, so I spent most of November as a zombie. 

Then all the run-up to Christmas absolutely destroyed me as well, and I spent a lot of December & January away from my PC too x3 I wasn’t capable of much other than sleeping and reading books, haha. Couldn’t even find the energy to play some of the games I’d hoped to during the Christmas break >.<

I should probably try to schedule proper breaks or something, especially after jams. The problem is, when I’m stuck in work mode, I can’t force myself to have breaks because I get really fidgety and can’t enjoy them x3 And when I finally am forced to have a break from being burnt out, I then struggle to get the energy back to achieve work mode again, haha.

Thank you for the awesome review by the way ^-^ So glad you enjoyed it!! Everything below this is me responding to what you said there :3

Hehe, yeah, some of the CG art is properly creepy and I love it :D And yup, Sorbet must be protected at all costs!!

I can never tell with 4th wall break stuff if people will find it entertaineing or just kinda cringey and annoying x3 cos I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, haha. I had to do it though cos it amuses me xD 

But yeah, the team put so much love and detail into their work from the voice acting to the art :3 I could never have made something like this on my own, that’s for sure.

So glad you liked the OST too :D It was a loooot of fun to work on! And also that’s really interesting that you’d mention the curious cat track cos while I was ridiculously pleased to have found a synth that sounded a bit cat-like to use in the track, I was worried it was possibly a bit repetitive or grating x3 And sweet nightmares was sort of a last-minute addition, haha. It wasn’t something I had on my checklist for tracks to make, but it ended up feeling like something was missing, so I kinda rushed to put that track together, haha.

Thanks again for being so sweet ^-^ Rhime wishes you the sweetest of nightmares :P
