i love your work so much, even though there are things i would have loved to be different in narration (no offense)
i love all the little things and hint you spray all throughout your story and how you strive to perfect it
honestly, i even love aiden's route despite or maybe because of it's imperfection, it's like a first dip of your toes in the story and lore (my first route actually) where you scramble all the hints for what will be going on. and i know you would make it better still and our splitboy will become as horny as he deserves
but, and spoilers here
goddamnit, alvy route end was so much.. I'm not trying to say you did wrong or anything, it's just.. i felt so loved during it, so happy, you made it perfect little love story.. and then deus ex machina it ended like that.. it's like I've been gutted all over the floor.....
im so sad for what alvy could get,the potential,never realized in the next instance (or parrallel unverse idk) of the story,for cody not remembering any of it (actually i won't be surprised he will remember all the potential routes down the line considering THEY saw it), the cruelty of it all
the fact that cody needed to go through therium and alvy to reach scribbles...
you really outdone yourself but at the same time, fuck you, with passion
Everything, it mischaracterizes him, it's too tame, and his split personality wasn't even something I thought about until close to the end of his route then added some vague stuff in between to hint at it. Don't even get me started on the Headmaster's writing. It also feels very unfair that Aiden's route literally became a unit of measurement for other routes "Tate's route is as long as 3 Aiden routes!"
I really appreciate the effort you put into the novel all things considered. It became one of my favorites within an hour of reading and I really love to see that you dedicate yourself to giving us stuff of quality
Oh don't get me wrong after reaching the limit of Tate's route, I started one with Aiden. I'm just asking because the stop during Tate's was kinda sudden and just when things started to really speed up.
I know how I word things can be pretty confusing at times, but in all honesty I found that it's really good I'm really looking forward to playing more of it. I really like the artwork and not just the NSFW ones all the artworks is beautiful I hope I can help in anyway I can.
Man i LOVE your game! I downloaded it 5 days ago, and i ALMOST finished all routes ALL BEST ENDING TOO YIPPIEEE.. i only need to finish Alvy's and start Scribble's. Heres my ranking so far of my favorite routes i've completed ;
1 - Tate's route!! Poor lil guy the end made me shed a tear i swear😭💝 love him so much my wittle baby
2 - Dallan's route!! I love our big defender boyo💖!! Was my first route i started with and messed up the first time, but i had best ending after mt second try!
3- Aiden's route! Hes alright! I still am a bit confused on how to know which aiden it is, even though the text is mostly how i know which one is there.. STILL A VERY HANDSOME BOYO! WOULD REPEAT AGAIN!💘
-10000000 Therium... yeah uhh.. dont approach us anymore 😬🥀
Alvy's route and Scribble's route still in progress on my part! Ill give a ranking when i finish em!💅🗣💓
I get what you mean by "wydm it's not a full route it's the same as the others" YEA, but that end... That was diabolical... Listen i know you can do whatever you want with your own game and i also know you probably have an ending established for the routes but GOD, I'm completely heartbroken by how you:
Talked about alvy's past
Showed what he has been through
Said that alvy fell for Cody in the literal first day
Mentioned that alvy has literally never felt what real love is like (and his ex was an asshole)
Kind of showed how i think his teacher used him as a tool to get to Cody?
Traumatized Alvy into thinking the recommended students were radioactive or something
And a million other things that could have lead to a full route (and yes i know you said that it's already a full route but i think you understand what i mean by full route)
For me, it felt genuinely diabolical doing that just to literally kill him (and was it absolutely necessary for the teacher to stab Alvy "accidentally"???) this is a devastating and brutal end...
Alvy is the goat... Thank you for creating lust shards.
Ok NOW I’M PISSED, (!! Spoilers warning ⚠️!!) anyways…
You’re telling me that I’ve waited THIS long, not only for Cody (and probably scribbles)to fucking die, but also Alvy… I mean I expected for Cody to die, but not my favorite Bordercollie come on!! Seriously though, great update probably the best one now, there were LOTS of: love, hilarious writing, ❤️!$€x!❤️, LOOORRREEEE!! (I needed this), family trauma (a yes my favorite), horrorific stuff, but despite the ending scene,😑 hands down best route so far. The next time I see those b*stards I’m gonna shove my fist so up their asses they’re going to taste my knuckles the other way aroundthis also counts for Alvy’s mom.
Honestly, I'm not expecting to see Alvy's route will be continued in the future, because he's a side character after all no matter how much I love him :((((( However, I really really wish we could have an alternative happy ending for his route or just some minor adjustments for the current ending to make it less tragic and brutal, because this is just too much for me frankly....It's been like a year since the last time some visual novels can break me...(By the way, I swear, your writing and arts are peak in this update...I really don't how to say this, nhưng thực sự nó quả là một tuyệt tác, một tuyệt tác, nó khiến cho tôi thực sự phải dùng tiếng mẹ đẻ để nói, bởi tôi chẳng biết phải nói bằng tiếng Anh như thế nào).
While I agree that the ending was... a lot, I also think it did need a rather sudden and extreme ending, to really hit the audience with the point that that is the end of his route entirely, among other things.
Obviously, Alvy will still be around, and may return in Scribbles' route or Chapter 2; he will still be part of the story, just as Therium is a constant annoyance presence, even though he's no longer the focus of the route, but for one reason or another, the author has decided that this is where his route ends. My assumption is it's because he's such an integral side character that actually having a route for him would (most likely) continue to completely change the story from the way the VN is now—it would no longer be focused on a fantasy romance academy story.
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT KIND OF MALICE PLANTED ITS SEED ON YOU... BUT THAT ENDING WAS SO FUCKING CRUEL BRO. YOU'D BETTER REASSURE ME THAT'S ITS GOING TO BE OKAY (im not okay)
Damn this just made my day even after the things that happened today. GGRRRR I Love It!
It gives me motivation to draw again! ^^ dw its not VN related :3 still, i thought that the reporter and the teacher were the same person which they kinda were? They were, right?!
I also thought that Dallan was the one that f*cked our Alvy,
Ok im going crazy nobody would understand this
But... whats the secret of buddy? im curious, VERY
I noticed the reporter and teacher being the same as well. I'm very curious to figure out the truth behind all the many, many secrets we've seen in Therium's and Alvy's routes, and what that vision at the start with the updated prologue actually is, but because there's going to be multiple chapters of the VN, I can only imagine how long it might take to uncover the truth.
I know it's too soon to call, but I have a feeling that Scribbles is the guy who stage this whole things, that character is funny and interesting for sure, but you know what ? I always find sth so suspicious about him, and...demons are demons after all, so I may not be surprised if it turns out to be true.
I feel robbed. I had originally wanted scribbles rout when i first started but then Alvy stole the show... bruh bruh bruh fucking bruh no alv happy end is cruel
I usually do not comment on visual novels but Alvy's Day 3 was genuinely one of the best updates I have ever read from a visual novel. Every single thing was perfect. The humor, the sadness and the more tender scenes were all written to perfection. A perfect conclusion to a perfectly written character. This update has made me incredibly excited for the future of this game.
That ending was fucking diabolical, evil and I love it, but god that's evil. Make us fall in love with alvy, and enjoy the idea of his route, only to see him get FUCKING SHANKED TF????? To think I was starting to feel bad for scribbles as he was very clearly hinting to the fact he was starting to fall for Cody. So excited to see where this goes, but god I'm so disappointed I don't get to see a full Alvy route now😭
Actually tho, like, when is day Alvy 3? Ive been playing since day one of Tate came out, and since then I've gotten every scene over and over, and filled out the whole gallery 5 times over. (Best time of 0:21:27)
I left the game open, then pressed square to log into it again, and my game runs backwards when i press. I've deleted the saves, made new save files, started over, everything, even deleted and redownloaded the game... Not working... Help?
huh !? i just did Aiden's route and there's an option for an nsfw scene with one of the characters in there ? also ur so real i'm going for Therium next LOLL
Humm probably, ill do the route again, that's just strange, got the spitfire one with the Jackal and Hyena. If I choose to stay in his dorm nothing happens :( Should I stay cold to get him ?
Hi, Love the game, like so much. I've run into a small bug, it seems you forget to capitalize 'True' on alvy.rpy line 3369 ($ alvyday2.persistent=true) and it is crushing the game.
I swear to god python is such a crybaby language, like indentation are my worst enemies as I keep counting literally nothing and be sure everything is aligned haha
Anyway, keep up the good work you are killing it and we love it.
Uh... "no"....? I found an error too in Alvy's route (But it isn't crashing the game), on AN OLDER android (last android update was 2024 or something, if it means anything, seen some wierd stuff with other vn's) I don't remeber where exactly but: I go with Therium Choose Alvy Ignore where it asks if you want to jump a day and stay on day 1
I think it was around the moring of day2...? I don't remember I choose 'ignore' and it seems like I may have only missed a single text or nothing at all....?
really enjoying lustshard so far love all the love interests and scribbles route is interesting so far going from Therium's route to Alvy's route wish i could afford patreon but can't so i wait for the next public release keep up the amazing work been loving following this for the last 2 years or maybe more can't remember when i discovered this, but enjoying the journey

you really outdone yourself but at the same time, fuck you, with passion
heavily agree. i cried.
Exit music (for a film), matches alvys final chapter so much. Absolute peak once again.
Absolutely fucking phenomenal update. So well done, fantastic job. I wait for every update eagerly, they are so fucking good~
MOF.
MOF!
WHAT THE FUCK!
You had NO RIGHT.
NONE.
Absolute Cinema, but still.
Question: what specifically about Aiden's path needs rewritten?
Everything, it mischaracterizes him, it's too tame, and his split personality wasn't even something I thought about until close to the end of his route then added some vague stuff in between to hint at it.
Don't even get me started on the Headmaster's writing.
It also feels very unfair that Aiden's route literally became a unit of measurement for other routes "Tate's route is as long as 3 Aiden routes!"
I really appreciate the effort you put into the novel all things considered. It became one of my favorites within an hour of reading and I really love to see that you dedicate yourself to giving us stuff of quality
It took forever but it was worth it ♥
Okay Alvy's route has more but what about the others like Tate, Dillon and everyone else's routes?
*sigh* at least there was an attempt at Dillon, Aiden didn't even get that </3
Oh don't get me wrong after reaching the limit of Tate's route, I started one with Aiden. I'm just asking because the stop during Tate's was kinda sudden and just when things started to really speed up.
I know how I word things can be pretty confusing at times, but in all honesty I found that it's really good I'm really looking forward to playing more of it. I really like the artwork and not just the NSFW ones all the artworks is beautiful I hope I can help in anyway I can.
I am going to kill someone and you all know who 😡
Who? :O
Is it Bean...?
Oh believe me if someone touches Bean there will be three dead bodies

Alvy's route and Scribble's route still in progress on my part! Ill give a ranking when i finish em!💅🗣💓
The horse is goooood c'mooon </3 he's literally a war refugee.
And keep some space near the top for Alvy, you'll need it.
BUT YOU SAID HE WANTS TO KILL EVERY LIVING THING
BECAUSE HE'S A BROKEN INDIVIDUAL HIS HEART CAN BE GLUED BACK ON PROMISE
HE KILLED BEST DOGGO I CAN'T FORGIVE THAT EVEN IF IT'S INDIRECTLY! i just wanna see alvy happy is that too much to ask ;-;
Alvy Day 3 spoiler...
MINDOFFUR YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME WHYYYY
Why must you kiss the brick before chucking it at my head like this???
Frankly at this point it's more like kissing the shotgun before blowing my head off :(
"Frankly at this point it's more like kissing the shotgun before blowing my head off :("
OMG Alvy reference! ^°^
finally got around to reading the new intro, enjoying it quite alot!
SPOILERSSSS VERY HEAVY SPOILERSSS
ALRIGHT MINDOFFUR.

Dude I feel exactly like you with the difference that for me, Alvy is literally my favorite character. I'm also very sad with the ending...
(In my dream world, Alvy's route kept going and now it won a frickin Oscar and a nobel prize)
While I agree that the ending was... a lot, I also think it did need a rather sudden and extreme ending, to really hit the audience with the point that that is the end of his route entirely, among other things.

Spoiler for Alvy D3 route
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT KIND OF MALICE PLANTED ITS SEED ON YOU...
BUT THAT ENDING WAS SO FUCKING CRUEL BRO. YOU'D BETTER REASSURE ME THAT'S ITS GOING TO BE OKAY (im not okay)
So real bro I can't process this qwq
WHAT DO YOU MEAAAAN MoF?! WHAT DO YOU MEAAAN THAT'S HOW IT ENDS
Only scribble's route left, right?
Damn this just made my day even after the things that happened today. GGRRRR I Love It!
It gives me motivation to draw again! ^^ dw its not VN related :3 still, i thought that the reporter and the teacher were the same person which they kinda were? They were, right?!
I also thought that Dallan was the one that f*cked our Alvy,
Ok im going crazy nobody would understand this
But... whats the secret of buddy? im curious, VERY
Orrr im just not reading well enough?
Scribbles and Aiden rewrite left
Dallan was certainly not Alvy's ex :v
Buddy's "secret" will be revealed in chapter 2
I noticed the reporter and teacher being the same as well. I'm very curious to figure out the truth behind all the many, many secrets we've seen in Therium's and Alvy's routes, and what that vision at the start with the updated prologue actually is, but because there's going to be multiple chapters of the VN, I can only imagine how long it might take to uncover the truth.

I feel robbed. I had originally wanted scribbles rout when i first started but then Alvy stole the show... bruh bruh bruh fucking bruh no alv happy end is cruel
Ikr?! We died ToT I dont know what would happen to us!
AAAHHHHH. NO WAYYY THE UPDAATTTEEE
I usually do not comment on visual novels but Alvy's Day 3 was genuinely one of the best updates I have ever read from a visual novel. Every single thing was perfect. The humor, the sadness and the more tender scenes were all written to perfection. A perfect conclusion to a perfectly written character. This update has made me incredibly excited for the future of this game.
Is there a way to see all the cgs and sprites or is that patreon only? (Sry if this is a dumb question)
There's no way to see them since the current gallery is a coding mess and it's not worth wasting my time to add new art there.
I'll be remaking it better in Aiden's rewrite.
DEFINITELY Spoilers....
That ending was fucking diabolical, evil and I love it, but god that's evil. Make us fall in love with alvy, and enjoy the idea of his route, only to see him get FUCKING SHANKED TF????? To think I was starting to feel bad for scribbles as he was very clearly hinting to the fact he was starting to fall for Cody. So excited to see where this goes, but god I'm so disappointed I don't get to see a full Alvy route now😭
wdym that WAS a full Alvy route! It has more resolutions than any of the main characters xdd
Mhm sure. Death is totally a sound way to end that story
The sus cat told you it's death and you believe him immediately?
Demons would have a field day with you
Played day 3 of alvys route. Possible spoilers?
I miss my baby 😭
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSS DAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
EVERYBODY SHUT UP MY GOAT IS BACK
Hottest character... Dunno between marina and chelsea
Actually tho, like, when is day Alvy 3? Ive been playing since day one of Tate came out, and since then I've gotten every scene over and over, and filled out the whole gallery 5 times over. (Best time of 0:21:27)
I left the game open, then pressed square to log into it again, and my game runs backwards when i press. I've deleted the saves, made new save files, started over, everything, even deleted and redownloaded the game... Not working... Help?
IM EXITED TO CONTINUE THISSS! lol help ive been cheking this every minute
XD
Just finished playing the patreon build, and all I can say is I'm hyped for pt3 of Scribbles route.
Also after looking at the old CGs from the other routes, I'm even more curious about what is the end goal for Therium's group.
I did all the route so far and no NSFW scene seen so far, is there a special/specific place I can download to unlocked them ? Therium is sooo hot :P
huh !? i just did Aiden's route and there's an option for an nsfw scene with one of the characters in there ? also ur so real i'm going for Therium next LOLL
I love all of them but the horsey, gives me butterflies haha :D I'm going to redo the routs again, maybe I missed something
D-Did you just turn Therium down when he asks you for sex when staying at his dorm? He flat out asks you pretty much.
Humm probably, ill do the route again, that's just strange, got the spitfire one with the Jackal and Hyena. If I choose to stay in his dorm nothing happens :( Should I stay cold to get him ?
I think if you just pick the things he wants to hear he offers to let you sleep in his room with him or sleep in the guest room.
Down is misspelled after choice 4 on Theriums rout.
It says donw... I think it should say down. It's not that big of a deal its just set off my ocd sorryy.......
Right after this choice
Hi, Love the game, like so much.
I've run into a small bug, it seems you forget to capitalize 'True' on alvy.rpy line 3369 ($ alvyday2.persistent=true) and it is crushing the game.
I swear to god python is such a crybaby language, like indentation are my worst enemies as I keep counting literally nothing and be sure everything is aligned haha
Anyway, keep up the good work you are killing it and we love it.
it's been fixed 2 days ago
Uh... "no"....? I found an error too in Alvy's route (But it isn't crashing the game), on AN OLDER android (last android update was 2024 or something, if it means anything, seen some wierd stuff with other vn's)
I don't remeber where exactly but:
I go with Therium
Choose Alvy
Ignore where it asks if you want to jump a day and stay on day 1
I think it was around the moring of day2...? I don't remember
I choose 'ignore' and it seems like I may have only missed a single text or nothing at all....?
Anyway it's a great vn, I love Alvy :3
When's the update planned to be released publicly?
craving already
I miss you, Aiden, ...sigh...
