ive been fr playing this for like 3 hrs and i legit cand figure out how to get the 2nd CG for Ankora
does it even exist or???
edit: nvm. figured it out. i can finally sleep in piece... kinda
edit 2: whats up with the bottles? is there anything going on with that in the demo? (cuz im pretty sure the things are coming from the fallen angel guy)
also, is there a way to get all the outfits and hairstyles, or is that only reserved for the full game?
Is the game still gonna have a full version? also i cannot find guin idk what chicken im missing LMAO
ive played the game about three times now, i love it! im trying to see everything i can in the demo while waiting for the full game, I still havent met Guin though! idk if shes just not in the demo or if Im missing something- does anyone know?
she is in the demo, however you need to do something to find her,
!!!!!! Spoilers on how to find her below.
There are chickens throughout the map in the game that fade in and out, you need to find them all and then she'll appear
tysm!!
I am maybe 10-20 minutes into the game. I am not sure, but so far it is beautiful in a unique way. The pixel art is cute and the characters are even more adorable (and sexier) I honestly have no complaints about this game! I already can't wait for the full game to come out!
Also, I love the little easter egg in the library about Cassidy and Elowen! It's mainly because I recently played the game they were based on and I love that you used the * form of Cassidy as in my opinion she looks the best in that one!
Anyway I will update my post whenever I do manage to finish the demo of this game but so far all I feel from this is pure happiness
Five minutes in and I already love this, it's so cute. I like being able to explore.
I love those chickens
why isnt this shit at the top of the page, im gay and this is still fun
BTW, I so appreciate Sandy being hairy! Pisses me off when cat-girls or werewolves are perfectly smooth and shaven. But also... that happy trail..... yummy....
This is so adorable and well made! Love all the ROs and Ankora is such a cutie!!! Win for the lesbians!
I found out about this game from CalicoPascal! and I love it so much >< it's soo cute! and such a cute concept! (I think you were chatting in the stream too!)
I absolutely love this demo!! I'm completely hooked, I love every character and desperately need the full game!! Can't wait for the full release!!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!!!! ♡♡♡
Kudos to the whole team, this is a masterpiece. Looking forward to the full game!
Can't wait for the full game <3
i loved it can't wait to see more
Can somone update me when the full game is released i absolutley loved this and i can tell somone has poured their soal into making it <3 whats the estimated price for the finished game and also run time?
MORE!!
i feel ashamed bc i had to look up what the three sizes were and now I get what guinevere was taking about god this game bro
sorry to bother but how do you meet guinevere???? ive played three times and I still cant find her-
In the beachside church, when I clicked the red highlighted text thing to get more info about the apparition, during on characters dialogue and then I like clicked away fast or something, or pressed something quick the dialogue ended, but the information about the apparition was overlayed over the games Background and also persisted in other scenes.
(quitting and reloading a safe with the issue already present didn't change anything) you can easily get rid of it by entering another dialogue and then you can close it with the x though.
oh i tryed hitting the x and it didnt work
will this have blind accessibility?
We love women here!
lovely game, all the characters are adorable and cute!
Really enjoyed the demo! The characters are absolutely fantastic. Just wondering, will the full game be available for free?
Sorry, the full game will cost money! I've poured a lot of my own time and finances into this project!
when will the game be fully released? Im dyng to know!! Im just so excited fo the whole release of this game, its funny and cute! I really enjoyed playing the demo! Much love! -Th3Pr0t0typ3 <333
I'm so happy you enjoyed it! I'm aiming to get it out at the start of April!! Thank you so much for playing! <3
Great! I'm so ready for the full game! The art style is very cute and adorable at the same time! I love all of the characters outfits and hairstyles, their fashion just matches the characters persona!! I LOVE it all!!! Much love and support! -Th3Pr0t0typ3 <33333
Is the 18+ patch something for the future? Because I can't find it
That’ll be for the full game!
LETS GOOOOOOOO ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
the art and writing are so cute! I immediately fell in love with bastyllias but then I found sandy crying in an alley about her shit job and instantly fell in love like damn. also a ramune themed mermaid is the cutest goddamned thing ive ever seen.
I randomly stumbled upon this gem and let me tell u i was absolutely blown away and just simply in love with all of it!! The art is so stunning and the character designs are top tier I LOVE ALL OF THEM THEY'RE ALL SO ASDFASDF SLAY GAHHHh I MIGHT EXPLODE. Anyways, the music fits super well and the writing is humorous and witty! *chefs kiss*
I played through this demo a few times and ran into some very minor bugs that I thought would be helpful to let the devs know:
1. After using the "Skip" feature on dialogue, it continues to fast forward and skip dialogue until after interacting with at least one other thing.
- How to recreate the bug: Press "skip" > try to interact with anything
2. When pressing on words highlighted in red in the dialogue, the photo of the glossary does not fit and the text covers almost the entire screen, and there is no way to exit it, so the game must be restarted.
- How to recreate the bug: Go to the church where Bastyllias is > talk to the NPC with green pigtails > click on the word "Apparition"
I'm not sure if that second bug is a screen resolution thing but everything else in the game works perfectly fine (13 inch M1 mac)
Also, I'm probably just bad but I could not find Guinevere *sobs* I really want to see her story! How do i find her? does it have anything to do with the ghost chickens?
Overall, I love this game so far and i can't wait for the full version! Super excited to see more and yall did a fantastic job!! BASTYLLIAS SWEEP
Thank you so much for your comments and your detailed bug reports! The highlighted words bug was indeed an issue and it got fixed in the latest update, so please give the game an update if you haven't already! :D
The skip issue can be fixed by hitting tab when you wish to stop skipping!
Here's my hint for Guinevere: five chickens!
i played through it again and it all works! and this time i found Guinevere shes so silly i love love loveee her design sm i think she is my fav o.o
Keep up the great work!
