i love this so much

this was probably the first time a 1 star review made me want to download a game. seeing how some people were annoyed by the "forced sociopolitical agendas" or whatever i immediately knew i needed to read the story and oh boy i was not disappointed. as a non-binary individual it is so incredibly rare to see representation of myself anywhere in games or have the option to chose a non-binary character. thank you so much for giving me that option here.

on top of all that the story line and writing are genuinely incredible and absolutely worth buying the full version. the only thing i wish i had was artwork to go with the story.

I had high hopes...

The game started off fantastic, really. I was excited how the rest would go.

But then (SPOILER ALERT) once the player’s first love interest turns into a merperson, it’s all downhill from there. You feel like you don’t even have a say in what direction the story goes anymore!

Then there’s the ending. Way. Too. Sudden. It just rushes into the conclusion, which is super dissatisfying by the way.

Come on guys, you can do better than this!

Amazing

The ending is not what I played this for

The ending doesn’t hold you accountable for any of your actions and made me feel bored with the story because it was all leading up to something too short. I played multiple times but never felt satisfied with any ending. My hope was that the author was working on part two or something but nope

Treally subpar

I support LGBTQ and am someone of color but this story pushes it so much that I instantly got bored. The choices are forced and it gives the average reader no real “choice”. It’s for a very niche group of people and I do not recommend this game at all. It was exciting at first, but quickly became a load of hogwash.
