The vibes here were excellent, really built up the ominous tone really well! I loved the character & background art, it was beautiful. But also, the UI design was lovely, especially how it changed during the story. In particular I loved the little curtains opening and closing!
Oh gosh, I loved the character designs (and Eir... so precious), and the kiss was so cute! But a special shout out to the snow vfx and the sound design, I felt so cold playing this!
God this was genuinely stunning. The writing was so beautiful and delicate, I was entranced from beginning to end. The subtle and well crafted sprite work and limited palette/colour choices adds so much too, really enhanced the dialogue.
The aesthetics and vibes of this game were so good, that pastel 90's shojo energy was off the charts! All of the attention to detail with the ads and the cut-in art assets was a brilliant extra touch! Also I loved the quiz graphic, brought back a lot of memories of those cheesy magazines I bought as a tween.
Gosh what a fun (and very funny) time - the magic stuff was so interesting to see variations in (and getting a bad ending or two... or three haha). The vfx for the magic also looked so good! The real standout are Meyrin's parents though - they have such an interesting backstory! You can really see where her chaos comes from XD
Oh also the ui! I love all the subtle animations to it!
This was so fun! I loved the sweet tone with that constant undercurrent of dread (which was really enhanced by the music choices). I also really enjoyed being able to chat to Swanhilde during the gathering part, those little interludes were really well written!
The character designs were really cute and enhanced with the VO (Swanhilde's VO especially, what a great performance!). The point and click segments were fun too, and the checklist was great for keeping track of everything.
