boy, this is gonna take a smokin’ hot minute lol—

I stumbled upon this somehow completely randomly while browsing this site for literally the first time, and I am just going to say that this was amazing!

I throughly enjoyed every single detail. It’s perfect, and I mean it! From the way the OST fits the vibe of the plot as a whole damn perfectly, and each individual scene or mood change is accompanied with the perfect track to go along with it, to everything else; I love it! 10/10—no—100/10 on the OST (and the game as a whole)! In other words, you made a perfect soundtrack for the game :3


Another little thing I love about this is that it feels real close to home, and not like some big writer is looking for a quick buck. I love the effort put into this, and I’ll just say that you’ve got another fan now lol


a comment on the art; your artstyle is incredibly cute, rather unique, and I absolutely love it! Not to mention that Remy has a very cute and unique design himself, too. It fits him and his character perfectly! A lot of VNs fail to capture emotions in the sprites of characters nowadays; not the case at all here. The way Remy is drawn captures his emotions perfectly. Also, I do enjoy how his design (like how he tugs on his scarf in tense situations) is incorporated into his emotions and actions!


All around, this game is perfect and I love it!! I’ll be sure to tell ppl about ya, and I’ll be sure to check out your other stuff too! (Ps, I wish I could have gave you a little something for it, but I’m not exactly in the best position rn, so that’s why I’m writing all of this. I can’t just leave, and not even leave a heartfelt note to you! this is the absolute least I can do to show my appreciation for you, for your efforts, and for this masterpiece of yours :3. Now, that said, I wish the best day—night, evening, or whatever time it may be as you are reading this—that you can possibly have to you!)

(Also, the name is genius too)

I think this comment made my day 💖

I'm SO incredibly happy to know you think these things about my game! Your feedback is so overwhelmingly positive and heartfelt, I don't think I have the words to properly express my appreciation!!

I'm very glad the OST conveyed the feelings I wanted it to! I'm still figuring out how to do music stuff, so hearing that you enjoyed it so much does wonders for my motivation and self-confidence ❤️

Definitely, I started this project because I wanted to put better representation out into the world, not for some kind of monetary gain. I'm glad it feels that way, too!

I'm also glad you like Remy's design! I tried some things I don't usually do for my illustrations, and I think this is a pretty good motivator to do those things again!!

I appreciate your detailed comment very much! Really, thank you! Stuff like this is very uplifting and reminds me why I love making games for people ❤️

Honestly, a comment like this means more than any donation could, because a donation is just money. These are super heartfelt words that make me so so so happy!

I'm very glad to have left a good impression on you! I appreciate the time you took to write this, and I wish you the best day/night/evening possible as well ❤️💖💕

(Glad you appreciate the title too hahaha)

Unified :D

A very sweet game as always, with an adorably kind character! The soundtrack for the game perfectly fits the theme of coming to understand a person. It creates a sort of rising tension/mystery feeling, at least for me personally. The art style really is unique to your games, along with the music.  The ending themes are very nice cherry on top to leave you with a contented feeling (depends on the ending). I played through most of the 4/5 endings, but couldn't bring myself to get the last one, knowing it took being the meanest :')

Can't wait for the next one! Thank you for putting in so much effort into your stories/games. <3

Ahhhh, I'm glad you liked it so much! Hearing that the OST was impactful like that makes me so happy 💖

That one ending does require being really mean, unfortunately... But I'm still flattered by your feedback! It's always been my promise to put in love and effort forever!!

Thank you for playing ❤

I really enjoyed it! :)

main song while talking to remy, was great. I found myself just letting it run without advancing dialogue to just listen to it.

its cool how in the corner little msgs will pop up to tell you things that have changed while your playing. I don't remember if you had that in previous titles.

I got a pretty good ending (friendship) but so far haven't been able to bring myself to try to get a bad one lol. Its harder, emotionally for me to try that this time.

Great job with this, well done!

Aww, I'm glad to hear you liked it so much! And hearing that about the OST really boosts my self-confidence ❤

The pop-ups are a feature in Tangled in Development, but this game released before that game, so this one is technically first!

I take your hesitance to bully Remy as a sign that I did good on my part, heheh!

As always, thanks for playing 💖
