Just came back to replay and am going through some more memorable games, to make sure I've rated them. Am so glad this one's had my rating for a while.

Such a unique setting with loveable characters! This was one of the visual novels I played that really got me into the genre and made me realize how fun the medium can be in the hands of a talented creator!! All the artwork here is so distinct and memorable after all these years, I absolutely adore your sense of character design. And ofc Corvus remains the best birb <3

it's been many years since i first played this but i still think of it constantly. really great and original game!

Really original game! The art was also superb 

This was a delightful if not completely different kind of protagonist never played a blood-thirsty sadistic Princess before whom loved torture before breakfast.  But loved the art-work and you wrote a very imaginative story that held me captive with popcorn.  Corvus had me going awww all the way through loved that bird-man the most but alas our love was not meant to be because I was run through by the mushroom boy that smelled like poo.  Once you hit rock bottom you can only go up right?  I can't wait to see what trouble you create next. :)

I cant seem to get any good endings and wen I pull up a walkthrough its blank soooo what do I do I really want to get a good end in this game

I just loved this VN. The character routes were quite interesting. I really loved Corvus, Vosges, and Gervase the most. I really loved the art style. I got Invader Zim vibes from it. Great job! :)

Honestly one of my favorite games on this site. The aesthetic and music match perfectly, and it just sort of... feels right.

Though, admittedly I am having issues getting Corvus' and Gervase's good endings, unfortunately. A walkthrough might be nice.

Hello!

Hello. I'm so sorry for the late reply but I fixed the download section. It should work now. Thank you so much for telling me!

Just thought I'd let you know that I used art from your game in a video I made here:

If you're offended and want me to take it down or something, just let me know. I did put the link to this page in the description, though.

(BTW I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE BAD ENDINGS IN THE GAME, LIKE SERIOUSLY; ESPECIALLY GERVASE'S, I'M A SUCKER FOR CANNIBAL ENDINGS IN GAMES OKAY~)

orz. This is a terribly late reply but thank you so much for playing the game! I'm glad you liked also the bad ends haha. Thank you also for including it on your video! I'm totally fine with fan made stuff like videos and fanart. I hope you had fun :D!
