Anxiety is just like having a toxic relationship with yourself fr ๐๐โจ
Eyyo! Finally got to the game! Feeling quite burnt out, so decided to get some rest and here I am! I came out hella inspired instead! MMM is so good, I don't even know where to start, seriously ๐ฅณโจ๐
First of all, I really love how simple yet effective the story is! Through show don't tell alone, you know that Geist is a manifestation of the MC's self-doubt, but... Is he really? He is an LI and all! Who's to say! I like the ambiguity of his existence, which is about the only thing that keeps him save from my "fck you" punches and yandere bug sprays ๐โจ Lol, JK! I do like that in Kalei's route Geist undergoes development too, just as the MC does! That's a really nice attention to detail of how anxiety doesn't really go away, but it does get better. I've been in both sides of the routes, so yeh, safe to say you portrayed anxiety perfectly ๐ฅฐ๐คฒ๐ปโจ
As for the art! It's real nice to the eye and everything has this artsy charm to it, which I enjoy~ And I finally saw what the animation fuss is all about! Def neat ๐๐๐ป๐ I also love the contrast of Geist's coldness and Kalei's warmth in the gallery. Love that detail ๐โจ
For me, the highlight of this VN is def Kalei. I've survived an especially messy toxic relationship and it really took me a long while to heal, so Geist really doesn't appeal to me and his bullshit just plinks off me like harmless bullets, lol. But I enjoyed giving him the finger and smirking fck yous at him as I focus on the precious that is Kalei ๐๐คฒ๐ปโจ๐๐ Kept awing at his smiles, like gawd! How can he be so cute?! It's illegal ๐ฉ๐๐
But yeah, really enjoyed it overall! Great job, Chatter! Big inspo fr ๐ฅณโจ๐ Tbh, I am going through self-doubts myself too lately, so yeah, Kalei's route is def a much needed oasis to experience ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
Anyways! Probably won't happen, but I'd really like to see more Kalei! A guy can dream ๐๐
