Aww, thank you so much for your kind words! We're so happy you gave our faerie world a chance and fell in love with the characters (Pix <3)! I am thrilled you enjoyed Aeden and Lucas. I had the most fun writing Aeden's route, but Lucas was the one who surprised me the most with how sweet he turned out to be. I hadn't planned on it, but I really enjoyed the way his route unfolded.
With Dragan, I think I know what happened... When I started writing, I knew the game would be short since it was for a jam. I wanted to have a complete romance arc for our MC, but also a way to justify falling in love in just 8 days. That's why I went for the "mate" concept. In my attempt to differentiate Dragan from Lucas and Aeden, I chose something uniquely vampiric (the blood attraction) but still tried to convey the "romance" behind it with the idea that he could only drink from her. However, I could have done a better job exploring the gravity of this development, and also with showing that his feelings were about more than the blood. In my attempt to convincingly portray a 350+ year old vampire, I suppose I got too hung up on his self-restraint. >_< As for Astora becoming a vampire, I'll just say it's not impossible!
Anyway, thank you so much for playing and leaving a comment to share you thoughts with us! We so appreciate it and we're so happy you enjoyed Evernight! :)
