“....the cold never bothered me anyway”
XD
Strangely, I'm doing quite well reading this VN. Maybe the main reason is this VN is easy to understand even though the topic is heavy subject.
Why do I when I first encounter this VN I'm not interested with the thumbnail? The art is very unique and interesting! I like it!
The plot is very good. I still not find how important are the stories about the ‘mismatch’ siblings, Pandora vs FBI, the ‘twisted’ cousin, and the long lost friend with the main plot: “real or fake Isaac”. However, I started to see how these are entangled. It seems we haven't on the middle of the story yet.
I love all of the characters! I think they're well written! But, the the dynamic that I love the most is the dynamic between Jasper and Mary. I feel like they're parents in the Pandora company. Despite Jasper seems hard on the surface, he's really care about Pandora, his family. He tried protect his family from the world outside, even though he have to be harsh and hated because of it. He likes a father figure in the company. In the other hands, Mary is easygoing and doesn't care about what world outside thinks. She keeps the harmonies between family members, by motivate them and protect the family from inside. Mary is like mother figure in the company. I don't know the ages gap between them, but I started to ship them...
I'm very excited to see how this VNs unveiled! Waiting for the next update!
Overbose and too wordy? Indeed. But cheap poetry? No!
Honestly, I like how the author construct those sentences. The fact that English is not the developers' main language makes the story description sounds unique. It's an achievement on its own!
Then, about what everyone complained: too wordy. In my opinion, the problem is not the wordy itself, but more into the words' smithing.
There are some description that seems unnecessary because they have nothing to do directly with the main character. Some of them also sounds a bit off because not properly inflicts a certain mood in a certain situation.
Too much information make me forgot why and what the main character do in the place and how's the atmosphere (mood) in there.
There's ways to make sentences sound poetic without being too wordy.
Or maybe this way of storytelling is just not my cup of tea? I'm not sure.
But for sure, the developers give this VN great efforts and we must appreciate it!
Don't you agree that this is an amazing VN because of the interactive stories with interesting world-building and characters?!
Looking for the next update!
So much tension in the last part of first chapter. and it seems, I will get post-reading blues

Why when people said ‘asian’it is often refer to Chinese and/or Japanese? Meanwhile, Asians are various...
Ah well. What Ollie's mother do is solely because what she went through in her life, nothing more. Each family is different and I can't judge everyone based on stereotypes.
Don't worry, you write it well!😄
Like what I said before, it's kinda weird for me, when the Rayne's sprite appears meanwhile the text is story narrations (which mean Rayne's though).
Most of the 1st person POV VNs that I've read, not doing this.
Well, there are some VNs that never show their protagonist face, tho😅 so, your VNs aren't that odd.
Don't worry about that, it doesn't make my reading session less enjoyable.

I want to comment my reactions about some parts of the storyline. But it means I'll give people some spoilers😅
I enjoyed your VN, and from the prologue, I know that you often read manga or watch anime that isekai genre
First time here. I'm not finish reading the VN but here my opinion about Rainbow VN
I know this VN using 1st person POV. However, for me it's kinda weird to see Rayne's name and sprite meanwhile the text is the narrations of the story.
The difference between the narrations of the story and the dialogue only on the quotation mark ( “.....” ). Rayne's name and sprite while the text is the narrations of the story makes Rayne looks like monologuing...
Other than that, this VN is promising.
First time playing
Why I feel that Ludus's personality changed after he and Phil ‘chased’ by the shady red panda?
I mean, at first he has gloomy feeling in his dialogue because the dream he had and remembering his father.
...and his dialogue became so [I can't put a word to it] after he got dream about Phil.
Nothing bad, I just not ready for the sudden change...
Let me continue the gane
I think, I know the answer of my own question:
It depends on how Whitman's ability. If his ability is hearing thoughts, the ability will didn't works well if he does not know the languages. Meanwhile, if his ability is seeing the projections of others' thoughts, his ability will useless against people who have aphantasia
First time to play this VN. Took me about 14 hours to finish it (yes, I played it in a day).
The moments that most amazed me is when Killigan become a bird in his 'dream'. No matter how I see the temple, based on the it's architecture, it's obviously Hindu temple (and I almost suspect it was Angkor Wat or Prambanan temple). Such a surprise! The way you construct their culture is astonishing!
Unless you play The Smoke Room, 'Batavia' become confusing. In real life, Batavia is Jakarta in colonial era. Meanwhile, Batavia in The Smoke Room is equal to Netherlands (which Clifford's hometown). It seems, in this VN, Batavia is modern Netherlands.
Now, if The Echo Project makes another VNs with Batavia as setting, I'm not sure anymore which 'Batavia' that they referred.
Just 'finished' 'all' routes of Burrows. I'm glad that this VN has completely different story in each routes. I often get too attached to a routes on every VNs, to the point I can't take another routes. I'll wait patiently the last main love-interest in public release. When and where Grey will be dropped in this new route? How's the look of his card?
Note: I think, I found a plot hole in Ken's route. There is no conversation about the current year in his route. They only talked about Ken's age and it suddenly jotted in the timeline. Isn't supposed Grey didn't know what time is his in when we choose Ken's route yet, right?
