Hey there Dandy Knight Games, can I say you really did some amazing work here! The style, voice acting and story, all really well done! This became one of my favorite visual novels.


Thank you so much. It was amazing working with this team to bring it to life. I'm very glad you enjoyed it. It was a huge undertaking for the entire team.

Hello, I usually add gameplay footage to my comments but this time it won't be possible, I was playing and recording this game when I had some problems and had to stop.

To be more specific, my CPU was under a huge load and was overheating and my UPS was beeping (signaling it was consuming too much energy), this happened when the game transitioned into the Visual Novel section after the mirror, I tried it a few times to make sure it was the game and not my PC and it's indeed the game, and only after that part (I also tried other games that are heavier and the CPU was good).

My CPU is the Ryzen 5 5600X, I see other people played the game just fine so it may be specific to me, I also use the Itchio desktop app, I think it was worth a shot letting you know in case you wanna look into it.

What I did managed to play of the game was really good, the concept as well as the story and the characters.

Keep the good work!

I'm sorry to hear that, I'm assuming the streaming software or something else was adding up to a large load on the CPU, I use the same CPU and it doesn't tax it at all.

Thanks for giving it a shot and sorry it underperformed there.

I’m always in love with a strory that narrates a friendship that sweetly becomes a life-lasting love.

Thank you so much for this piece of love.

This was such a cool concept and a surprisingly sweet story :3 I mean, I know it says it's a love story fragmented, so I shouldn't be that surprised x3 I guess I just thought it was going to be much more sinister from the general foreboding feeling of the nightmares. Don't get me wrong though, it was a pleasantly sweet surprise :3 The end made me give an audible, aww. I'd like to say exactly why, but I don't want to accidentally spoil anything by making a clumsy comment >.<

Anyways, I was also surprised by how much I enjoyed the nightmare segments of the game! They were really fun to explore and I love all the little details in them. It was extremely funky and I loved it :D

And yay to voice acting of course! <3

That was surprisingly wholesome, given how the game starts haha ;;

The art was very sweet and expressive, and the voice acting really adds to it: it made the whole experience feel very polished. I'm impressed you got all of this done in a month, given there were a lot of 3D levels to traverse too. I can tell your team put a huge amount of effort into this, and it really shows!

I enjoyed my time with a lot, so thank you for making it!
