Thank you for the feedback! I agree with everything you say. My writing and characters can be generic, and I need to improve my writing. As for endings, you are right on point, due to the deadline I didn’t have time to create a branching story 😅.

Thank you for playing the game! I did initially plan on having to unravel what the device is about, but couldn’t come up with a good storyline for that part so I ended up scrapping that idea. Surprisingly I managed to complete everything a day before the jam ended. I guess having a schedule worked wonders in the end lol.
Firstly, I’m not a font expert. My main problem with the font was mostly inconsistent spacing between letters, which made it look a bit messy and harder to read each word. I also think that the font has too much going on, as in it was visually overwhelming I guess. I don’t know what might be causing that but my assumption would be the resolution of the font. I understand you’re going for a pixel art style, and a smaller font works for things like name tags. But for areas with a lot of text, it can cause straining after a while. Oh, also the shadow behind the font might be a bit too much, a flatter look might be better, but you probably need to experiment on what works best. I would suggest you search for “pixel art visual novel fonts” or something similar and look at some example screenshots from other games to get a reference on how they handle their font.
The art is stunning! Well done for 14 days! Sadly, I didn’t have any audio during gameplay, but I am not sure if that’s because I was running it on Linux with a compatibility layer. The attacks on the characters felt rather unbalanced, which led me to rely on Tear only. Overall, though, I had a lot of fun playing it!
Heres my visual novel if you are interested Fractured Divergence. It is a bit on the longer side.
I believe I already have your game downloaded, and will check it out tomorrow morning.
