I honestly don't mind you using AI for the art, I don't think it's too reprehensible for someone just starting out, especially for one person. I will say though that there were some glaring issues with some of the animations because of that fact, the walking animation for example, one paw seemed to be digitigrad, while the other seemed to be plantigrade. A good amount of polish may be needed to really make the an animated character worth it in a visual novel. I think in some cases it may be worth it to have a static model in order to counter some of the issues that arise from AI animation. Standing still was much better, there were less glaring issues, but it could still use a little tweaking, this same feedback can also be applied to background shots as well.
As for the story, I'd have to say it's a good start. It's a little eerie, and considering the setting, that's not surprising. I'm looking forward to seeing a little more!
As a follow up to my comment in the sprite previews and now that I've seen some of the content that was changed since the last update, I think I personally see the Rune in the previous iteration as one that I enjoy more, mainly because that's what I think of when it comes to someone that is a swimmer/basketball player, and I don't know what it was, but he seemed much warmer and approachable before (also, his photo in the game was hot af, and was rightly used as a pseudo-cover for the VN I think). That said, the extra detail in the rest of the sprites as a whole is a welcome update (shocker, Rune's still hot af to me), and if this is more to what was imagined when writing the character, I'm sure it'll resonate more closely with the story as we go along, and I hope we can all enjoy that. I'm certainly not going to complain about getting more of everyone's stories. These are also my very first impressions, so it'll no doubt change over time, and I still thank the crew for making a fantastic VN.
Now to get too deep into the VN once again and face the consequences of running into the end of his route. I just couldn't stay away - I've got something in my eyes D;
I reeeeally enjoyed what is here so far. I like seeing in-depth feelings in a visual novel, even though I occasionally like it when it gets down and dirty quick..lol. That weasel is feckin hot - I didn't entirely expect the end, but I was very pleased because of it.
I'm very much looking forward to what is in store going forward. Thank you for your work!
Holy crap this is a amazing start to the series. The emotion and heart that is put in the writing is fantastic and it sometimes made me go crazy sometimes when it came to who my mind was leaning in favor of. The art and music are remarkable, the characters are so rich, and I absolutely can't wait for Dryz and what comes next for the series.
Fantastic job!
