I LOVEEEEE THIS, I CREATED AN ACCOUNT ON ITCH IO JUST TO COMMENT HERE, PLEASE MAKE MORE, ITS THE BEST VISUAL NOVEL I EVER SEEN!!

WHATTTT THANKYOU?? I'm so glad you enjoyed the experience! This is actually kinda crazy LMAO. I've still yet to decide on what to work on next, but I'll def take everyones interest into account!!! (´꒳`)♡

THIS WAS SO GOOD I WANNA KISS SHAVIL SO BAD

(+1)

This was such a little fun VN!


Shavil's somewhat dry personality was charming as hell (even in the bad end) and the little bit of story we got was really cool. It would be cool if you ever expanded upon it, but I think O'ermorrow also works as a standalone story.

Also, Shavil's design is absolutely gorgeous (and so is the BG), and the voice acting was excellent! 

(+2)

Love the design, the ambiance, the artstyle, the voice, and everything about this! I wish we could've had more tho 😭💖

(+4)

While very restricted by the confines of the game jam it was created for, it does have good voice acting and absolutely gorgeous art and it hints at an interesting world setting. I would love to see something that builds off of this because it is a very promising amuse-bouche.

It was a bit confusing since its too short, but I loved the art, the music and the VA!! Its def good taking into account the limitations it had

Thank you for the feedback Chellin! Happy to hear you enjoyed it

The art is amazing! 

Thank youuu so much for playing! Also dying at the 'blah blah blah proper name place name' LMAOO

This was SO COOL!!! The art and voice acting is sosoosososo wonderful and I'm now so curious about the world and story :3

Really glad to hear you enjoyed it! (´꒳`)♡

I was so absorbed! The art and prose are so lovely and I'm super impressed by how real the characters and world feel despite only seeing a small slice of it!

AAAAA! Thank you!! I'm super happy to hear you enjoyed the experience! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

Wow, the art is just AMAZING! Can't believe you managed to create such a detailed world in under 1000 words. I love everything that was said, but also somehow loved everything that went unsaid.

Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the experience ♡

this is so amazing! the voice is so raaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh and the vibes?? the story oh i want more

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the experience! (´꒳`)♡ And I agree, Ryan did such an amazing job!

(+1)

This is so good, I want more so bad!! The atmosphere in the game is impeccable and the art is fantastic as always.

(+2)

GRRRRR I LIVE FOR PINING.. .yes yearn MORE!!! aaaah im so in love with the art style and the colour palette !! i had to sit and stare when shavil first appeared because wooowww character design (he's so pretty.. . . ooogh details) .. . . wooow bg music... bg art...(felt straight out of a storybook!!) and then he started TALKING.... ok brain rot over.

on a more serious note, everything was so well done !! i got so into the dynamic between the mc and shavil + despite how short it was, it was so easy to immerse yourself in the world !! i really enjoyed replaying to reread (magic!! necromancy!!! tell me more!!!) and try out different choices :0 would love to see where this story goes if you ever decide to expand on it !!

(+1)

HEHE TYTY MOONIE!!! Also I'm so glad the storybook aspect came through because that was the goal!!! I'm really happy you enjoyed the experience! ♡(>ᴗ•)

"Necromancer who dies to better understand the art" is such an awesome character concept.  This was a really beautiful read!  Absolutely adored the triple combo of art + music + UI and how they build an almost magical atmosphere in this work.  You guys did an awesome job!!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH GERT! I'm glad you enjoyed the experience! (´꒳`)♡ also you unedit this comment at ONCE! Lol jokes aside I had to doodle your comment LMAOO

(+1)

OMG, yes! +1 to more stories and lores of Shavil!! QAQ I enjoyed the experience a lot. I loved the art so much!! Very beautifully eerie background and beautiful Shavil!! His small blush and his final sentences are just so, so good >///<

Thank you for making this!! If you're going to write more about him, I'm so looking forward to reading it!! ;w;

THANKYOUUUU so much for the kind words Konayachi! I'm really glad you enjoyed the experience! ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

(+2)

OOOOOHHHH I NEED TO KNOW MORE!!!! SO MUCH MORE!!

I really got into the story, and I was impressed by how fast it managed to explain, somehow, how necromancy works in this world, to give us a glimpse of the dynamic between MC and Shavil (and how complicated it is considering the striking difference between the two endings), and the stakes of it all! The art too was absolutely gorgeous, both the BG and the SPRITE HOLY MOLLY!! Finally, I have to say, the voice acting was amazing!!

Congrats on making this game!!!

THNAKYUOU Chime! I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it! (´꒳`)♡

it's been a couple of days since i played this and i'm STILL thinking about this entry AUGGHH. everything about it stood out sm to me from the beautiful art to the premise, and for all of it to be done within the limitations of o2a2 UGGGHHHHHGHGHGH. this will probably be one of my top VNs i played this year and definitely looking forward to future works!! <3

WHAOH! Thank you so much for your kind words!!?? I'm so happy to hear that it resonated with you! I'm at a loss of words really,,, I really loved your entry as well! THANK YOY!!!!

What an adorable blush! 💜 I wouldn't mind getting new opportunities to tease that out of him...

The art style is gorgeous! The sprite and BG fit so well together 💜 

If you want to add more life to a scene like this in the future, I recommend trying out Ren'Py's SnowBlossom particle effect. It's easy to use and modify and works great for fireflies, flying embers, rain and what have you...

Looking forward to more great stuff from you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to play, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it!  ⸜( ´ ꒳ ` )⸝ *: ・゚

I've actually looked into the particle effect, but I worried that trying it for the first time at the last minute might cause issues, as my initial attempts usually go. It would have definitely made the scene that much more magical! 

Hopefully I'll have another chance to implement it in the future, thanks again! ♡

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE THIS INTO A FULL GAME WITH DIFFERENT ENDINGS!!!! IM OBSESSED <33 EVERYTHING IS JUST PERFECT OBSIHXAVDIHABDAHBCH

THANKYOUTHANKYOYTHANKYUOU!!!!

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the experience! Honestly writing Shavil and MC is so fun, I wouldn't mind expanding this story or exploring the past, so maybe? Anyhoo, THANKS AGAIN! (´꒳`)♡

EYYYY I LOVE THIS SO MUCH! 

The sprite is absolutely GORGEOUS and this background has been living rent-free in my mind since I first played it. Like it's moody and gorgeous and REALLY nails the creepy magical graveyard vibes. 

I also have a soft spot for silly quasi-evil-but-not-really warlocks with a penchant for reducing, reusing and reanimating 😂 The 'browsing the catalogue' line had me chuckling to myself so hard.

Also the logo and the textbox are just so wispy and perfect, the vibes for all of this are just immaculate. Loved it, attempted every choice and it was so cool to get so much branching in such a short game. Kudos, you did phenomenal!

(Edit: As for the pixelation on web, there's a file called "progressive-download.txt) where you can add a line to pre-load the images so there's no wonkiness while playing. Same for voice lines to ensure audio cues are on point, but depending on the size of those it might be a stretch.)

AA A THANK YOU! so much! for the kind words, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the experience! I also love the line 'reducing, reusing and reanimating' LMAO,, also double-thank-you for the html tip! I'll def try it out! ♡

I loved this game so much! The art was gorgeous and premise of the story was so enthralling!

I was amazed as soon as I opened the game because I'm such a huge sucker for forests, greenery and glowing elements! 
I really loved how even in such a small amount of words you hinted so well at the overarching lore in the universe and established the scene. 
There wasn't a point in time where I was confused or lost despite the word count! I was immediately drawn in, included and felt the atmosphere of the game and story. 

Love love love Shavil too! The design for them absolutely popped off. 
Sending so much love to the team, thank you for letting me experience something so wonderful.

Thank you so much for the kind words!!! I'm really glad you enjoyed the experience. I had to choose what to prioritise due to the word limit so I'm relieved to hear it being cohesive!  ♡

Thank you for playing, glad to hear you enjoyed it! ♡

CRIPTICCC THIS IS SO POLISHED AND WELL-DONE WAAA!! The background and art are so so stunning and sets the story’s tone really well! I loved the banter/exchange between them, and the world-building has me intrigued! I’d love to see more of them or anything set in this universe really lol. Amazingly well done! :DD

THANKYOUUU SM!!!! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! I'd love to expand this universe, I found that I really do enjoy writing dark fantasy.

Thanks again! (´• ω •`) ♡

BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS OVER THE VOICE ACTING, MUSIC, ART AND WRITING WOWIE!!! God I love the vibe of this game so much, the death themes and aesthetics are so exquisite to me. The tension felt so good, and the background art and character look so good I want to eat the art style. Incredible job!!
