god that was fucking awesome. congrats on finishing it!
Coming back here a year later, now that the whole game is out. I'd already loved the demo and was very excited to see the whole concept brought to life, and I'm so glad the full game didn't disappoint or drop the ball. This is exactly what I wanted out of the story, a perfect adaptation of a tokusatsu setting explored through the strained friendship of two trans girls going through it.
And I liked how you went all in on that. Every emotion Diana felt resonated deeply, and even the horrible scenes with her family and how everyone but her and Sawyer are depicted serve the idea of the game so well. It's exactly as long as it needs to be, packed tight with raw emotion filtered through the coolness of the genre, and the ending pulled at my heart strings.
Really impressed with this game, it's definitely one of my favorites from this jam. I hope you'll keep making VNs!!
thank you,,
Yo, listen up, here's the story
About a little girl that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything she sees is just blue
Like her, inside and outside~
(except for Sawyer, of course, heheheh)
Thus far, I've only read Act One, but already I'm invested in the story~ I want to see what becomes of Diana and Sawyer, especially after that cliffhanger of an ending! I also adored both the music and the art—the portraits in particular had a ton of charm and character to them, and I thought your use of silhouettes at certain points added quite a lot, heheh~
I'll be sure to check out Act Two and leave another comment later on!
"I've seen what being my mom does to people."
MAN THIS ONE IS ROUGH and i mean that very positively! really good shit. i love diana's cartoon meat on bone shirt. i like the font a lot. the writing of the casual dialogue and diana's internal monologuing is really well done, and it hurts in all the places it should. diana's possessive paranoia is painful, and as relatable as it is something you want to scream at the screen over. the constant metaphor of the kaiju as the self is so strong and heartbreaking.
cheering you on for further acts! i hope they can talk it out sometime soon.
Aghhh I hope there's a continuation at some point!!!! I got invested into the characters so fast, and wanted to know what was eating Sawyer up. You did an amazing job at putting down on the page the paranoid and hurtful thoughts of someone like Diana, and it hurt to read in a good way. I've been there. That constant back and forth, that feeling that this one person has to be the one to finally save you.
Loved this, and I hope I'll get to play more in the future.
this was surprisingly alluring and i was really getting into the scenario and story and mindset of diana but then it just stopped! very nice writing and verbose prose, cute art and great music direction but arghh previous comment is right it ends so suddenly and too soon... will be on the lookout for more
graaahhh!!! it ends too early!!!!!!!!!! i want to see you where go with this, the concept of this story is like exactly up my alley!!
I really hope you do make more of this, because I was really taken by your writing! I really want to see what happens between Diana and Sawyer... you tap into a lot of relatable anxious feelings, worrying if you're bothering someone else, so this does work as a standalone story, but I just really want to see more!
