This is so cute! I was smiling from ear to ear throughout playing. I'm happily awaiting the next update.
Especially because of the cliffhanger. I really wanna see what that leads to.
I came from the "Ultimate BL Visual Novel Game Jam" submissions page. Hi! I really love the story, art, and GUI! I was trying to piece together what Ronan was carrying with him, and had a sudden horrifying realization and I was correct! 🥲 I love that stuff. I chose to continue carrying "it" by the end.
The moving background was such an interesting addition to the VN. :3c
I love it! I love the dynamic between Hikaru and Aki, especially the "Honey~" scene, lol. Aki getting flustered with something he started is hilarious, but the whole scene is just cute.
The part of the VN when the creeper ghost comes in and the words go across the screen as it did is really cool. I think it makes the interaction all the scarier being in the middle screen with the words being jambled than the text box :3c
The sprites that show them in a different direction is some great detail. Adds a little more life to 'em.
I'm excited for the full release. I wanna see how the ghost progresses. I replayed the game to realize that Aki knew Hikaru as a kid. So does that mean he learned the talisman on his own to protect Hikaru? That would be cute.
I'm guessing the story of the ghost must be true to an extent. Sounds like she sacrificed her family? For health? For something they've done to her that is not known yet? O-X
I'm invested xD
I'm not sure if you would want to use it because it doesn't have much options, but Sprite Sheet Character Generator is useful. You can probably download the bases without customizing it to do what you want with it. Hope this helps.
