ngl, it was pretty funny getting this game reccommended by a friend, starting it up, and after the first few minutes I hear a track from Fate/stay night
very good! for something with only 3 of the 4 parts of the first chapter, this had some of the highest quality and abundance of art i've seen in an fvn yet! apart from some audio mixing issues <spoiler>especially during the climactic moment of tate's escape</spoiler> and inconsistent capitalisation during dialogue, i don't have any issues! a solid 8-8.5/10 vn, and i'm thoroughly excited to see where this goes next!
despite being called lust shards, this is still somehow a magnitude less horny than shelter
I think it's impossible to get Tate's bad ending unintentionally, because there's no way in hell someone would throw him away THAT many times and not feel guilty about it.
The point of my comment is that it's literally impossible to UNINTENTIONALLY get his bad ending while doing his route for the first time. The illustration case is a whole different thing because you do it after finishing his route and getting one of the endings
Tech issue here, the current version 1.3 is not work for my computer (win 11 system), I cannot open it :( However, I try the previous versions (before 1.3) and it shows that they are all working properly.
Awesome game. Can't wait for more. All the characters are unique and loveable and I can't get enough of them. So much character development in just the first chapter. Love how all the characters interact together.
【Spoiler Alert】【mostly machine translation】Here are some of my thoughts after playing Tate's route（Praise the author！）
I spent about 10 hours experiencing the route.(I knew in advance that this is the longest route,but I chose him
because everyone love cats!)
I really like the events set by the author that are getting better and better.I can feel me gradually entering the world of this sensitive cat,which inspires me a lot.
The CGs and BGM are great, the scenes about riding a broom are cute,the final battle's BGM is exciting,the plot on the hillside at the end is so sweet that I scream in my heart.(ahhhhhhh!)Then I SL for several times in panic because he dislike the new name(sweating).This is another surprising point,the foreshadowing of names was set from the begining and as the plot develops, it gets stronger and finally triggered.(genius!)Both Tate and I have been saved.
In addition, there is another clever setting,the scene about the snowfield in the dream and the saving "me" part coincided surprisingly and shocked me for the second time in the last dream(A great echo!kitten good)
Although the game has a slight flaw,for example, when Flying Dragon is caught,Cody's speech is somewhat OOC(low eq).But I can understand that this is to advance the plot development,so that's OK.
When I'm collecting CGs,Intentionally separating from Tate and interacting with other characters,I just feel a little guilty.But when I overslept because I spend a good night with M or O,His disappointed words do make me feel like a jerk.I shouldn't have played with his feelings.So I didn't experience the Bad End afterwards.I can't do it anymore.
Once again, I would like to express my gratitude to the author for creating such a wonderful thing.I am also looking forward to what will happen in the future(For example, where did the former rabbit principal go).Maybe it's time to go play the other two routes or I will be killed by longing for Tate. Aiden and Dallan's secret is impressive too I would be very lonely without this game.˃̣̣̥᷄⌓˂̣̣̥᷅
(Suddenly feeling so shy about writing these words.I have to escape)
I did not realize that there were a Russian translation for this and i literaly spent 2 moths lernin English from Duolingo, but the two moths were definitely worth it, i felt more emotion from the English version rather than the Russian one, Продолжайте хорошую работу :)
I played the game when it was released, when Aiden's route was available and I have great impression with then. Now I just finished Dallan route and damn who would have thought that wolf has a big secret and behind the smile. Love the update and can't wait for the next one!
ok so this is going to be a small bit of rant about somthing that seemed very wierd to me, (a hefty amount of spoilers ahead so dont read if you havent done the tate route yet)
so in the part when tates wyvern gets stolen by the wild furs we wake up from the poison to see tate crying his eyes out because he just lost somthing he cared deeply for and what do we do? correct him when he says dragon. like i know the mc is a lil dumb in general but from what we saw in other parts of the route and other routes he isnt tottaly socialy inept. it seemed so weird that the mc sees his friend somone that if you do the route the best way possible we hang out with all day for like 3 days crying on the ground looking at the place somthing he deeply cared for was now stolen and for all he knows might already be dead or he will never get to see him again tate starts speaking about i think seraph was the name and says the word dragon so instead of comforting him we correct him to wyvern and he gets rightfuly angry and leaves. while yes i know story building is important yes people make mistakes and yes they did like get better with eachother and whatnot but it just seemed so out of place to say with the situation that were in. am i the only one that felt this way during that scene?
if you read untill now ty for listening and sorry for the probably many grammer mistakes i made
after being dead named so many times myself, I physically feel pain when they call him "Tate" after that revelation. I didn't know that was even possible.
I'm HOOKED as well with this vn. I'm hoping for a personality/backstory for Cody (aka the hella adorable snow leopard). Which, it's amazing that you decided Cody would be a snow leopard because I. LOVE. them. so. MUCH! (AND they're my spirit animal! Sheesh.)
Want to say this Game is really well written and enjoyable. I only recall barely few grammar issues but, they're not a concern in my opinion.
So with that I'm so excited for chapter 2, I LOVE Dallan's route out of the 3. Tate is definitely complex once you see past the surface. Finally Aiden is my least favorite, his route gives off the "maybe I can change him" vibes. Of course I do understand the attraction for Aiden's character but, maybe he'll grow on me if his attitude is more justified or softens.
For chapter 2 I just love to give ideas so, no need to listen if you got down. I was just thinking it would be cool if the player makes decisions that will reflect their test results and if they fail it's a "bad ending/ game over". Clearly Cody will pass but I think it would be interesting to see the characters reactions reflect the players results for example, passing by a hair would be funny and make Cody look inferior and adorable raising concern to the group where and a perfect score will surprise everyone. Either way I do enjoy what the devs are doing so I'll see what they have cooking.
This game is great, I am really looking forward to seeing where the next chapter goes especially Tate's story, he's the best. I can't bring myself to get the bad endings, I just want to see the characters be happy
so ive been trying lots of things by now and i cannot find the last scene i need from tates route. in the gallery its right after the plant nightfallen scene anyone can help?
You basically have to drag the fight out as long as possible. I think the way I got it was in a route where I spent a ton of time with Ollie and Merina instead of Tate. When I got to the plant scene, I chose to let Scribbles handle it, and then chose to cut it with air blades.
I finally got through it the first time for all routes I am still trying to wrap my head around how I avoided not getting the best ending... Then again, I turned down all the attempts to do something lewd, so maybe that would be it.
Anyway, that is beside the point I came to give my opinion albeit If I have been reading these comments correctly it appears one of the routes will be getting a remake so it will not matter in the long run. but I figure giving a current opinion would be interesting since I am just coming off my first playthrough of all the routes. (Albeit I still need to go through the entire game again trying to hunt the other endings.)
Spoilers Ahead:(You have been warned.)
Tate's Route: The most recent one and the one with the most action and world-building in it. I have to say I feel like I should have gone through these in the order of the update to make this hit harder. But seeing someone cheerful actually has a lot of pent feelings well that's not something you read about every day or at least not that I have seen. I also enjoy the fact that it went more into his backstory and the Wyvern was a nice touch of him trying to show care for something as a substitute for how he wants to feel. (Or that's just how I read it I could be wrong.) And I'm glad he figured out who was his actual family and not those who were just using him. I did enjoy the fact he actually got so jealous he did not even question the fact that we would try and go behind his back. (albeit I literally followed him for the entire route.) Blinded by it only to find out because of his arrogance one of the people he cares about most will be killed. I am also glad he came to terms with his own name and was able to see it differently. I can't wait to see how they get into even more trouble as this appears to be the route with most action.
Dallan's Route: An overworking good boy... I will not lie I see this commonly in a lot of works. (Though he also gives off the vibes of a leader who just doesn't know how to lead yet.) It's not like I dislike the character but to say he was my favorite would be a lie. I enjoy the character arc he goes through where he learns to relax and live a little. Albeit in the future, I hope he learns some better time management skills and how to delegate. (Albeit I understand the feeling of wanting to put all the burden on yourself and hope he also learns to overcome that.) At the same time, I can see this going in the direction where he does not feel like he needs to be in charge anymore and might give it up not caring for what people besides the ones closest to him think. (I was torn a bit on which felt more fitting but guess I will have to wait and see.) I did enjoy the fact he was blind it was a nice twist with many hints throughout the story I hope this does get touched more and not just thrown to the wayside. Another thing I liked was that we got to interact and spend time with Chelsei just about every day. Seeing their antics and helping out with their gadgets was fun I am looking forward to seeing more of their inventions and how they ever A: cause problems or B: help out in the future.
Aiden's route: I went into this expecting hell to break loose Especially after Tate's route which brought up a witch hunt (Which I also kinda expected to happen in Dallan's route when it didn't.) and that apparently he has a lot of exes... None of this was touched. I say out of all the routes this one seemed the most casual. Not to say that it was a bad thing I think having one that was a bit calmer might have been nice. However, it seemed to be the one with the least amount of world-building and character progression. I was surprised to find out the new headmaster was his father and I really want to send that fucker to the moon. but I did not see a lot of the stuff that was brought up in other routes overwise. I did enjoy the literal Doupleganger thing thought it was cool but it seemed like not much was actually done with it besides answering a few small contrivances definitely more could be done with that. ((Then again this is the one I saw in the comments that this one was apparently getting a remake so it might just be this is the first one.)) But ya out of all of them, this feels the most lackluster and least deserved of the routes.
Gripes: (Don't take these to heart they are primarily just gripes and can be ignored if desired) So many characters were introduced and albeit some of them were touched more than others. I still feel like there was a bit of tunnel vision on the Romancable characters. (Albeit this is common in most VN's like this so I don't honestly have room to gripe.) I am hoping in future chapters we get to learn more about the other characters, especially after so many were introduced but barely touched. Another thing seems to be continuity between timelines Some things seem to show and other things just don't. first off in Tate's route the headmaster basically tells Tate that he would be in charge of detention. This never happens in any of the other timelines as in one you end up going to detention and in the other, you see how horrible Tate is to Dallan. now this could be Mr rape creep just trying to be intimidating a bluff. But then there is the entire witch hunt that doesn't happen in any of the other routes... Ok, maybe it was just there as a throwaway plot point and world-building... So does Tate just end up giving up on the egg or miss it hatching in the other routes and like Wyvern leaves? (Also how is it I literally could only pull these things from the latest chapter.)
Predictions:(Just some ideas on what's to come could be completely wrong.) 4th route looks like it will be revolving around summoner. Mr Lust mysterious Therium seems to be the one for that... Albeit It could also be a character we have not met yet Perhaps it's the mysterious shard leader of the summoner who might be the real master of Jerry/Unkown and they know about Scribbles... I mean seeing as so far it seems like summoners can call upon Nightfallen but not being real how far would it be to assume one has the power to make an actual nightfallen revived from a crystal. (I will prob figure out who the master is in the bad route if I accept the damned invite but one can guess and hey it's always good to put thoughts down before experiencing something.)
2nd Chapter:
Well, It will be revolved around the test... I get the feeling we will be paired up with whoever we romance in chapter 1. If not then all for the better Like I put in my Gripes seeing other characters and learning more about what makes them tick would be nice. Plus a bit of a workaround I mean you spent all that time trying to get close to someone only for you to get teamed with someone else that you barely know or at least barely know in that route. Albeit are character so far seems uh a bit wishy-washy I guess he could be somewhat displeased about getting teamed up with someone he did not desire. (Ya this idea just breaks apart the more I think about it.)
Notes: I Look forward to looking for the bad endings and seeing if they add anything to the story. Albeit get the feeling it just makes all the obvious bad choices/Sex Options. Albeit I don't feel as if they will add anything to the plot besides oh you just didn't try hard enough or outright the person rejects you for being a horn dog who can't decide. Otherwise, I look forward to more in the future the world you have built is interesting with some interesting gimmicks and characters though a bit more of an in-place magic system would be cool.
Played this VN. I think this is the first VN that I fell in love with the protagonist, Cody. He's really amazing and goofy character. Half of his lines managed to get me chuckle.
After the threesome with Chelsea Scribbles tells Cody he got bored/fell asleep bc it was so boring/pedestrian for someone like him, but then "writes in his diary" that it was the best sex he's ever had. Is it a plothole? or is it foreshadowing that Scribbles can and does lie all the time?
Mind. Fucking. Blown. Hands down, my new favorite visual novel. At first I thought this was just another cheesy dating simulator BUT NO! This has some of the most fun and creative story building I've seen in a while. 10/10, recommending this masterpiece to all my friends. Don't overwork yourself, I hope to see you continue this project in the near future.
Thank you for making an amazing game and I hope to see more updates in the future honestly this visual novel is a work of art it's the best one I've ever known good job
that's the "Ollie breaks your ass" page. you gotta let him break your ass instead of fucking his brains out. which btw its so endearing how excited he gets to top even tho he seems like the stereotypical bottom.
Hi, I firstly want to start off by saying how truly wonderful this Visual Novel was to read. I spent almost 12 hours straight just reading through the 3 paths. I've been sick, so it was a great distraction from that. I absolutely loved it, and I have a few quick questions I'd like to ask. If they're things you don't wish to reveal or simply don't have an answer for yet, I totally get it. I also apologize if you've been asked these questions before.
1: Will each ending of the paths have continuations, or only the good/neutral? The bad/worst endings didn't really seem to have much of an opportunity to fix things in later chapters. I also can't imagine how much work it would be to have the paths diverging that much.
2: I noticed my playtime for Tate's path alone was slightly more than both Aiden and Dallan combined (not that I'm complaining. I like long stories). I think the best way I can describe it is that Tate's path felt like its own standalone novel. The other paths were great, but are there plans to maybe expand them a bit to be more in line with the quality of Tate's? I feel like Aiden's route could use a face-lift the most. I am very intrigued by his character and very much desire more.
3: Why the fuck is Oliver so cute? Like, I thought I had a thing for the small, shy type before, but Oliver easily takes the cake. For real though, I'm amazed at just how much the side characters shine and stand on their own in this VN. It makes the world feel a lot more alive to have them more present instead of just being plot devices. I guess this one was less a question and more just some praise.
I genuinely want to thank you for creating this VN. It genuinely might be the best one I've read yet. Absolute 11/10!
Hey there, I'm happy you enjoyed it so much! No better medicine than some nice smut with plot :3
Yes, the paths will continue from the best outcome, and most importantly all of them will contain spoilers from all the routes in chapter one, so good thing you're up to date :]
Tate's story was easy to write for some reason, but he still has a lot of development to go through in the next chapter. Aiden will absolutely get a rework, there are many things I don't like about it and yes, it is too short. Dallan will also get a bit more content but nothing major. Ultimately Tate's route will remain the longest one of the bunch, even counting the last route, but not by a landslide.
I love designing side characters so I can feed the reader all the spicy content without actually rushing in with the love interests. Oliver is definitely one of the best bois out there. :) A surprising amount of people are either kind of indifferent towards him or absolutely adore him, but nobody can hate that adorable anxiety ball.
Bro I Read Novels in 20 Hours a Day and Only Have 4 Hours of Sleep Waiting For Updates Like Hell And That's Just Hard Man, But Can't Help it It's Just The Stories and Art Is Sooo Good Well Can't Really Do Anything since I'm a Shut In
So I far I finished the game twice, first time the best ending, second time the bad ending, both in the Tate route. The best ending really was, "the best" ending, everyone was happy and that's it, nothing else to point out. But the bad ending, even though the player doesn't die, if I was in the place of the main character, I'd rather death over the ending. Tate might have even said "cat got your tongue?" Or something like that, and yeah, you did Tate. I'm Sorry

I think it's impossible to get Tate's bad ending unintentionally, because there's no way in hell someone would throw him away THAT many times and not feel guilty about it.
Everyone did to get all scenes or because they like the side routes like me it's one of the best addictions i see in a furry VN and feels less linear
The point of my comment is that it's literally impossible to UNINTENTIONALLY get his bad ending while doing his route for the first time. The illustration case is a whole different thing because you do it after finishing his route and getting one of the endings
Oh i understand,intentionally yeah i did with that intention after get his good ending
Once I saw Tate before the updated with his route I tried to pick it BC he is a fucking cutie
Tech issue here, the current version 1.3 is not work for my computer (win 11 system), I cannot open it :( However, I try the previous versions (before 1.3) and it shows that they are all working properly.
Nice work btw :)

I absolutely love this game, I'm crying at the amazing dialogue and fun little stories
aiden's path has been there since the start
I did not realize that there were a Russian translation for this and i literaly spent 2 moths lernin English from Duolingo, but the two moths were definitely worth it, i felt more emotion from the English version rather than the Russian one, Продолжайте хорошую работу :)
[Spoiler?]
Is Gael going to make an appearance in future chapters?
I just love the guy and hope to see more of the hot lizard.
I only have 2 things to say,
1 I have loved every moment playing this novel. Tate is definitely my favorite and I can't wait to play the next chapters.
2 Don't you plan to release the novel in different languages?
I played the game when it was released, when Aiden's route was available and I have great impression with then. Now I just finished Dallan route and damn who would have thought that wolf has a big secret and behind the smile. Love the update and can't wait for the next one!
ok so this is going to be a small bit of rant about somthing that seemed very wierd to me, (a hefty amount of spoilers ahead so dont read if you havent done the tate route yet)

if you read untill now ty for listening and sorry for the probably many grammer mistakes i made
Is Scribbles going to be a route for us? He's kind of mysterious and it is very interesting to see Cody and Scribbles together XD
I think there are only 4 routes and the 4th is supposed to be Therium's.
I'm pretty sure the 4th route will be Scribbles, since it's the Summoner shard he wants you in.
I think Therium will just be a sidepiece on that route.
That kinda make sense actually. Though, I don't mind having Therium's route XD
after being dead named so many times myself, I physically feel pain when they call him "Tate" after that revelation. I didn't know that was even possible.
Edit: GOD DAMN YOU METAL PIPE!
I'm HOOKED as well with this vn. I'm hoping for a personality/backstory for Cody (aka the hella adorable snow leopard). Which, it's amazing that you decided Cody would be a snow leopard because I. LOVE. them. so. MUCH! (AND they're my spirit animal! Sheesh.)
Mine too!!!!
oml, when did you become my lost bro???
Broskies!!!
So, does the public version not have Dallan's NSFW scenes yet? Because no matter what I do I just can't seem to get it
There's no scene for him even in Aiden maybe in Chapter 2 it's possible
Oh, I see. Thank you
Want to say this Game is really well written and enjoyable. I only recall barely few grammar issues but, they're not a concern in my opinion.
So with that I'm so excited for chapter 2, I LOVE Dallan's route out of the 3. Tate is definitely complex once you see past the surface.

Anyone know how to get the last 2 Gallery frames of NSFW Dallan?
I love this VN my favorite character is Tate so far try to change my mind with the new route when ur done
However progress is going I just hope all is well!
This VN is adorable and I love it! Got hooked right away and I can't wait for more!
so ive been trying lots of things by now and i cannot find the last scene i need from tates route. in the gallery its right after the plant nightfallen scene anyone can help?
Which one specifically? Because the plant scene is 6 frames, and then Merina's scene is another 6 frames.
ok so i just checked again and it seems im missing a single frame from the plant scene the fourth one to be specific. no clue how im supose to get it
You basically have to drag the fight out as long as possible. I think the way I got it was in a route where I spent a ton of time with Ollie and Merina instead of Tate. When I got to the plant scene, I chose to let Scribbles handle it, and then chose to cut it with air blades.
New stories still not coming out yet? :((
What is new in the 1.3 update? Devlog?
Is it??
Is it just a bugfix or something else?
Someone on Patreon used their personal account and wanted their name changed.
Plus some mistakes corrected: In the audition battle a CG that was meant for Cody's auditions would appear in Tate's audition.
In the Nightfallen nsfw scene there was a little visual bug.
And I forgot to lock the art in the game's folder after turning the .png files into .webp oopsie :]
I finally got through it the first time for all routes I am still trying to wrap my head around how I avoided not getting the best ending... Then again, I turned down all the attempts to do something lewd, so maybe that would be it.
Anyway, that is beside the point I came to give my opinion albeit If I have been reading these comments correctly it appears one of the routes will be getting a remake so it will not matter in the long run. but I figure giving a current opinion would be interesting since I am just coming off my first playthrough of all the routes.

It's not like I dislike the character but to say he was my favorite would be a lie. I enjoy the character arc he goes through where he learns to relax and live a little.

Another thing I liked was that we got to interact and spend time with Chelsei just about every day. Seeing their antics and helping out with their gadgets was fun I am looking forward to seeing more of their inventions and how they ever A: cause problems or B: help out in the future.
Aiden's route:
I went into this expecting hell to break loose Especially after Tate's route which brought up a witch hunt (Which I also kinda expected to happen in Dallan's route when it didn't.) and that apparently he has a lot of exes... None of this was touched. I say out of all the routes this one seemed the most casual. Not to say that it was a bad thing I think having one that was a bit calmer might have been nice. However, it seemed to be the one with the least amount of world-building and character progression. I was surprised to find out the new headmaster was his father and I really want to send that fucker to the moon. but I did not see a lot of the stuff that was brought up in other routes overwise. I did enjoy the literal Doupleganger thing thought it was cool but it seemed like not much was actually done with it besides answering a few small contrivances definitely more could be done with that. ((Then again this is the one I saw in the comments that this one was apparently getting a remake so it might just be this is the first one.)) But ya out of all of them, this feels the most lackluster and least deserved of the routes.
Gripes:
(Don't take these to heart they are primarily just gripes and can be ignored if desired)
So many characters were introduced and albeit some of them were touched more than others. I still feel like there was a bit of tunnel vision on the Romancable characters. (Albeit this is common in most VN's like this so I don't honestly have room to gripe.)
I am hoping in future chapters we get to learn more about the other characters, especially after so many were introduced but barely touched.
Another thing seems to be continuity between timelines Some things seem to show and other things just don't. first off in Tate's route the headmaster basically tells Tate that he would be in charge of detention. This never happens in any of the other timelines as in one you end up going to detention and in the other, you see how horrible Tate is to Dallan. now this could be Mr rape creep just trying to be intimidating a bluff. But then there is the entire witch hunt that doesn't happen in any of the other routes... Ok, maybe it was just there as a throwaway plot point and world-building... So does Tate just end up giving up on the egg or miss it hatching in the other routes and like Wyvern leaves? (Also how is it I literally could only pull these things from the latest chapter.)
Predictions:(Just some ideas on what's to come could be completely wrong.)
4th route looks like it will be revolving around summoner.
Mr Lust mysterious Therium seems to be the one for that...
Albeit It could also be a character we have not met yet
Perhaps it's the mysterious shard leader of the summoner who might be the real master of Jerry/Unkown and they know about Scribbles...
I mean seeing as so far it seems like summoners can call upon Nightfallen but not being real how far would it be to assume one has the power to make an actual nightfallen revived from a crystal. (I will prob figure out who the master is in the bad route if I accept the damned invite but one can guess and hey it's always good to put thoughts down before experiencing something.)
2nd Chapter:
Well, It will be revolved around the test...
I get the feeling we will be paired up with whoever we romance in chapter 1.
If not then all for the better Like I put in my Gripes seeing other characters and learning more about what makes them tick would be nice.
Plus a bit of a workaround I mean you spent all that time trying to get close to someone only for you to get teamed with someone else that you barely know or at least barely know in that route. Albeit are character so far seems uh a bit wishy-washy I guess he could be somewhat displeased about getting teamed up with someone he did not desire. (Ya this idea just breaks apart the more I think about it.)
Notes:
I Look forward to looking for the bad endings and seeing if they add anything to the story.
Albeit get the feeling it just makes all the obvious bad choices/Sex Options. Albeit I don't feel as if they will add anything to the plot besides oh you just didn't try hard enough or outright the person rejects you for being a horn dog who can't decide.
Otherwise, I look forward to more in the future the world you have built is interesting with some interesting gimmicks and characters though a bit more of an in-place magic system would be cool.
Played this VN. I think this is the first VN that I fell in love with the protagonist, Cody. He's really amazing and goofy character. Half of his lines managed to get me chuckle.
Can't wait to see the next chapter!
Did Scribbles lie in Dallan's route?
Spoilers
After the threesome with Chelsea Scribbles tells Cody he got bored/fell asleep bc it was so boring/pedestrian for someone like him, but then "writes in his diary" that it was the best sex he's ever had. Is it a plothole? or is it foreshadowing that Scribbles can and does lie all the time?
Waffle :p
Pancake >:D
3 OR 4 Months To Go Bruh :/
I would rather wait 3-4 months for a full route and the quality of the story, don't rush art.
Mind. Fucking. Blown. Hands down, my new favorite visual novel. At first I thought this was just another cheesy dating simulator BUT NO! This has some of the most fun and creative story building I've seen in a while. 10/10, recommending this masterpiece to all my friends. Don't overwork yourself, I hope to see you continue this project in the near future.
Thank you for making an amazing game and I hope to see more updates in the future honestly this visual novel is a work of art it's the best one I've ever known good job
Is there any way to get the NSFW tate gallery on page 5? I have been trying to find other ways yet I can't seemed to get it.. I litteraly need help...
that's the "Ollie breaks your ass" page. you gotta let him break your ass instead of fucking his brains out. which btw its so endearing how excited he gets to top even tho he seems like the stereotypical bottom.
10/10 he really is best boy
Hi, I firstly want to start off by saying how truly wonderful this Visual Novel was to read. I spent almost 12 hours straight just reading through the 3 paths. I've been sick, so it was a great distraction from that. I absolutely loved it, and I have a few quick questions I'd like to ask. If they're things you don't wish to reveal or simply don't have an answer for yet, I totally get it. I also apologize if you've been asked these questions before.
1: Will each ending of the paths have continuations, or only the good/neutral? The bad/worst endings didn't really seem to have much of an opportunity to fix things in later chapters. I also can't imagine how much work it would be to have the paths diverging that much.
2: I noticed my playtime for Tate's path alone was slightly more than both Aiden and Dallan combined (not that I'm complaining. I like long stories). I think the best way I can describe it is that Tate's path felt like its own standalone novel. The other paths were great, but are there plans to maybe expand them a bit to be more in line with the quality of Tate's? I feel like Aiden's route could use a face-lift the most. I am very intrigued by his character and very much desire more.
3: Why the fuck is Oliver so cute? Like, I thought I had a thing for the small, shy type before, but Oliver easily takes the cake. For real though, I'm amazed at just how much the side characters shine and stand on their own in this VN. It makes the world feel a lot more alive to have them more present instead of just being plot devices. I guess this one was less a question and more just some praise.
I genuinely want to thank you for creating this VN. It genuinely might be the best one I've read yet. Absolute 11/10!
Hey there, I'm happy you enjoyed it so much! No better medicine than some nice smut with plot :3
Yes, the paths will continue from the best outcome, and most importantly all of them will contain spoilers from all the routes in chapter one, so good thing you're up to date :]
Tate's story was easy to write for some reason, but he still has a lot of development to go through in the next chapter. Aiden will absolutely get a rework, there are many things I don't like about it and yes, it is too short. Dallan will also get a bit more content but nothing major. Ultimately Tate's route will remain the longest one of the bunch, even counting the last route, but not by a landslide.
I love designing side characters so I can feed the reader all the spicy content without actually rushing in with the love interests. Oliver is definitely one of the best bois out there. :) A surprising amount of people are either kind of indifferent towards him or absolutely adore him, but nobody can hate that adorable anxiety ball.
Bro I Read Novels in 20 Hours a Day and Only Have 4 Hours of Sleep Waiting For Updates Like Hell And That's Just Hard Man, But Can't Help it It's Just The Stories and Art Is Sooo Good Well Can't Really Do Anything since I'm a Shut In
Is there a guide for the nsfw cg for Aiden and Dallan's routes?
I absolutely love this game
So I far I finished the game twice, first time the best ending, second time the bad ending, both in the Tate route. The best ending really was, "the best" ending, everyone was happy and that's it, nothing else to point out. But the bad ending, even though the player doesn't die, if I was in the place of the main character, I'd rather death over the ending. Tate might have even said "cat got your tongue?" Or something like that, and yeah, you did Tate. I'm Sorry
good news! try going for the bad ending and then changing course at the ferris wheel!
