How do I get end 3???????? ;-;
I need Noa
More than anything, I was very impressed by some of the technical feats in this VN's gameplay; in particular, that scrollable social media feed near the beginning was quite inspired~
I also really liked the art style, especially for the portrait sprites! It has a ton of character, and succeeds in being highly evocative with largely subtle changes in expression, heheh.
The writing is solid, too, adroitly exploring some of the grimmer aspects of idol culture and the horribly destructive effects it has on those ensnared in it, all the while keeping the characters realistic and relatable~
Stellar work on this one! I'll be keeping an eye out for your future work, for sure, heheheh~
Hi hii!! Thank you so much for your kind words!! I'm glad you enjoyed all the Ren'py coding tricks I used (They were such a pain to get working ;;-;;) and mannn thanks for teaching me a new word --adroitly? Love it. It's going in my daily use dictionary now.
Hopefully my next game can live up to your expectations (Whenever that may be lol) Much love Kyou!! ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁˖ . ݁
Wow, this one was really good! Your art style is always striking and fits this very well. The topics it handles are brought across well, I think, the characters are interesting but also still feel relatable. I was also amazed how long it was - all while not feeling like a drag. More than enough variety to keep you invested.
Here's my fingers crossed, or thumbs pressed as we say in Germany, for you for the jam. Good work and good luck!
Hello again from Anti Capitalism jam ahahha! Thank you for taking a look at my new game! I was lowkey worries that this time, the story was gonna lack substance since there was no clear outline for the plot this time and that I didn't flesh this out enough (Ah-Ha badum tss!) But I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^ I will keep all of my thumbs pressed for you too! Danke schön AbnormalHumanBeing ♡⸜(ˆᗜˆ˵ )⸝♡
I loved the game's art style as it added to the atmosphere, themes, and overall vibe. The character dynamics between Noa (with black cat vibes) and Viktoire (with tsundere vibes) were exciting and unique. Three different endings - bad, neutral, and good - added diversity to the game.
The mini-game elements added an extra layer of fun to the game. The difficulty increased with each one, in a way, representing relationship-building. The fish trivia mini-game was fun and educational, which you do not usually see in visual novel games.
Considering the game's fulfilling 22,525-word count, I'd estimate it takes 2 to 4 hours to complete. There's a lot of great content to enjoy!
"Of Fair And Flesh" gives off Raspberry Dragonfly vibes—rare, beautiful, engaging, and mysterious.
Wowowow thank you for your kind words~ I'm super glad you enjoyed the character archetypes came across well and you enjoyed the mini games! (Very interesting fish facts that I had to research on ^^) Also love the rating system you used ahah, I'm honored for this game to be similar to a raspberry dragonfly!! ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧ Thank you Meltz! (P.s. love Nahida)
Omg! This game is everything to me. I love the art <3. You always incorporate themes of mental health so tactfully. Name of the game? inspired, hidden lore? inspired, lesbians? inspired! It left me wanting to know more about both of them (Noa stop being so mysterious hhhh) and brightened up my day. I hope you're in good health and happy.
Ahhh hello again plant !! Thank you for leaving another wonderful comment ^^ It makes me happy to see you enjoyed it \(•~•)/ ya know the drill, gotta leave some suspense for speculation lol. Gotta keep y'all on your toes.
I feel like there was so much more to be explored but I got burnt out quickly, since I'm a solo dev and essentially making all the assets by myself. Wink wonk, maybe I'll expand the lore in the future. I hope you have the bestest health and that your bed is always toasty. ʚ♡ɞ
