I loved the game so much!! sad that the demo just came out which means it's gonna be a while for the actual game... ;^; but it's def gonna be worth the wait!!
HIIII, sorry, I wanted to know if it's my computer or if it's just me. When I'm halfway through the download, it cancels and says "The file was not available on the site." My internet is fine, my computer isn't old, and I don't have an old version of Windows either. Sorry, I really want to play it. Is there anything I can do? T_T
ahh no need to apologize at all!! thank you so much for reaching out, i’m really sorry that’s happening ;; other people have been able to download it so far, so it might be a temporary itch issue or something browser-related? i’d recommend trying a different browser (like firefox or chrome), or pausing any antivirus software only during the download in case it’s interfering. you could also try the .zip website version if you were using the itch io app, or vice versa! 🫶 i really appreciate you wanting to play it!!
OWH, TY, you respond quickly, HAHA:3. I'll try my best, here's my good review when I can download and complete it. IT REALLY LOOKS GOOD, NEVER STOP IT, I NEED TO SEE IT COMPLETED, OKAY? MWWA! >w<
THIS GAME IS SO COOL I LOVE IT!! I managed to get all the neutral endings and the bad ones except the second one. The art and the story is so nice >.< I can't wait for the full game! Will it still be free when you release it??
I love this game so much, i can't wait for the full version!!. By the wayyy, can i ask what the name of the piano track in this scene is? it sounds so good! 😭 😭
IT IS SO GOOD!! The vibe, the visuals, the endings (I'm really expecting the motel ones!!!!), and the music fits perfectly!!! It's one of the only times I played all the ending even the ones I wasn't really into just cause I couldn't quit the game! It's art really
you playing through even the endings you weren’t into is such a high compliment 💖 thank you so much!! i’ll do my best to make the rest of the game just as hard to walk away from! (⌒▽⌒)☆
I LOVE IT SO MUCH PLS I GIGGLED SO MUCH PLS IM SO EXCITED FOR FULL RELEASE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I HOPE ITS FREE, also heh... ILYA IS SUCH A FINE SHYT HOLY I LOVE THE ARTS, STORY, ANIMATION, EVERYTHING!!
I feel the need to comment as the local weirdo who does add a pinch of salt in her morning coffee, lmao. Adding a bit of salt in your coffee actually helps it taste better! It cancels the bitter taste :')
PS: As for the vn, I will echo the other comments. Ilya is such an interesting character, and I like how you have to "earn" over his obsession and mercy by standing out from the crowd of apathetic selfish people. Looking forward to how our interactions with him will go in the captive route!
LMFOAJSDK i’m honored you were willing to go through every ending just to stay in the world a little longer!!! thank you sm, i’m working hard on the full version and i can’t wait to share the rest with you!! (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)
finished most of the game and holy shit, on my word this is absolute peak. the writing style is splendid, complimenting the eerie plot that carries the game throughout. it is captivating, as every conversation spoken from both ilya and the player feel real. tangible. it impressed me because a lot of visual novels/horror games don't have this sense of authenticity to their dialog, as if trying too hard. (not trying to downplay them tho) but this? i felt immersed with each description and word that had been uttered from each character. can't wait to see more from this !!
okay wow,, this seriously made my whole day (*ﾉωﾉ) thank you so much for taking the time to write all this! i care a lot about dialogue sounding natural, so hearing that it felt immersive and real really means the whole world to me. i’ll keep doing my best for the rest of the story!!
decided to write a comment on this game because awesome solo dev, awesome work, awesome art, and awesome writing!!!! i've reviewed a looottt of yan vns, and what i like so much about this game is the writing and choices speicfically. it's so realistic how we actually have to build a connection with ilya, and in this way, making choices becomes so much more enjoyable! in additiona to that, there are so many endings and choices that it just makes you want to play more and more. really excited for the full version and esp the capitivity route!! i really like how after i've replayed all the endings and choices, you can really see changes in ilya's demeanour in choices which is so cool. (i mean, it's quite obvious because different choice = different route, but i just really loved seeing how he's not just an automatic yandere and you have to earn his favour and whatnot as i've said before.) i realllllyyyy REALLLLYYY love the art and plot so much,, i also really love how the mc acts and i think it's quite realistic!! not too slow, lots of reason, not stupid/can sense suspicion, but can also be lenient and kind!! #ilyaforever #excitedforcaptivityrouteheheheh WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST MARI!! good luck and super excited for the full version!!
this was such a kind and thoughtful comment; thank you so much for taking the time to write it 💖 i’m so glad the writing and branching structure stood out to you. and omg yes... the captivity route… you’re so real for that 😭 i’m so excited (and a little nervous) to share it!!! also thank you for mentioning the MC too!! i tried really hard to make them feel human and capable of both reason and empathy. THANK U AGAIN FOR ALL THE SUPPORTTT 💕 #ilyaforever ♡( ◡‿◡ )
I was captivated by the way this visual novel looked and safe to say i was not dissapointed. The story is so intresting and i could even feel the creeps when Ilya said something sus. The cashiers are soo hot, can't wait for the full realese <3
HAHA i’m so glad you felt the creeps at ilya’s words,, thank you so much for playing and enjoying it!! i’m working hard on the full release and can’t wait to share more soon <3
Never been so excited for a full version of a game like this I absolutely LOVE THIS and there are so many choices that even after getting all the available endings I still had dialogue I've never seen before .I cant wait for the full version and I also love your artsyle <3
AHH it means the world that you went so deep into the game that you’re still finding new bits of dialogue even after all the endings!! thank you so much for the love!! ʚ₍ᐢ ›̥̥̥ ༝ ‹̥̥̥ ᐢ₎ɞ
This VN became one of my favorite. I played this game at night and the whole vibe of the game hooked me in. Also loved the writing and story, basically everything haha.
playing it once a night to see ilya I'm sooo excited for the final game aaa amazing storytelling beautiful art wonderful dialogue love the different endings (and different ways to get to them I think.. I've unlocked it all.. i better have I don't wanna miss anything hehe)
omg once a night?? you're so real for that HAHA thank you so much!! i'm so happy you’re enjoying the story + ilya + all the endings! i’ll do my best to make the final game just as fun to explore! ( ˶ˆ ꒳ ˆ˵ )
I absolutely love this game! I'm finding myself needing to find all the endings. I'm so excited for the full release. I will be keeping an eye on this game. It's hard to believe it was done by just one person. You really are amazing.
ahhh thank you so much!! i'm really happy you enjoyed it that much, it’s definitely been a labor of love and a ton of effort, but hearing stuff like this makes it so worth it <3 i’ll do my best on the full release!
Normally I avoid yandere like the plague, but I'm glad I took a look at this. I appreciate that you have to actually build a relationship with Ilya, he's not just magically obsessed with you, you actually have to be a decent person and show an interest. Very much looking forward to then entire tale when it's released.
that means a lot! thank you for giving it a shot even if yandere stuff usually isn't your thing! it was really important to me that ilya’s feelings felt earned, not just instant love out of nowhere. i’m really glad that came across! i hope the full story lives up to your expectations (ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡
Ok, this is one of the best VNs I've ever played. EAGERLY awaiting the full release. If it's ok, can I ask if you have an estimated release date at this time?
thank you so much! <3 hmm, i don’t have an estimated release date just yet. a lot of the game is already planned out though, since it’s meant to be a smaller project (and a way for me to get used to the ropes of devving in general). since i'm doing this all on my own, i’m hoping to finish it within the next few months, maybe 4–5? it kinda depends on how my classes go next semester! but i definitely want to finish it before jumping into anything new
I loved this game so much! I cant wait for the full version and have already played it multiple times despite having all the endings, especially excited on the captured routes!! This is amazing please keep up the good work!
I loved this game! some constructive critisism :the eyes are looking in diffrent directions , didnt know if you intended that but everything else is amazing !
when he gets in the car and says "its freezing out there " and when he says "no no i swear thats not it [...] not peacefull ( havent played all the routes , only 4 , but thats all i found and again , amazing game!)
Oh my god, this game is just amazing. Its art style is so reassuring. I like ilya's personality. On the surface, he seems harmless, like a cute puppy, but behind the scenes, his personality is completely different. This is so charming. Also, I'd like to ask if there will be a CG collection function in the future.？ilya's CG is so cool. I really want to use it as my computer wallpaper.😘
aaaah thank you so much!! (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝) i’m so happy you liked ilya, and yes, i plan to add a CG gallery in the full version, so you’ll be able to revisit all his scenes after you unlock them. thank you so much for the kind words!!
