Had a ton of fun with this so far, as someone who’s played Danganronpa and 999! Hoping we’ll see more of the jackal soon, kinda love his mystery :3 though I gotta admit, I’ve been enjoying Ethan’s doofy company too
I had a blast going through the entire thing even though it was just the first build and I'm genuinely in love with every single character (specifically Jude!!!). I really don't remember the last time I got so absorbed by what I was reading so much that I forgot the passage of time. I'm really looking forward for the next build!!
I’m usually lost with vn having a huge cast, but with each character having so much personality, expressions and poses, it was very enjoyable meeting all these people!
The investigation was also very satisfying, good job for this 1st build!
I'm glad you liked it!
played the first build, loved it, and i will keep ethan, eight, the sharks, and jude alive as long as i can, until its either them or ranoldo, in which case im keeping the president alive at all costs
OH C'MON THAT GUY WAS MY FAVORITE I LIKED HIS LIL WEIRDO SELF :[
Love this visual novel so much! And, Jude is my favorite. Small question though, what gender is Jude?
Glad you like the game!
Jude's gender is a mystery, as nobody's bothered to ask them (and they've never confirmed or denied pronouns). Everyone is welcome to view Jude as whatever gender they prefer to see that wacky ferret as.
That makes Jude all the better, love it. Thanks for the reply! Can't wait for the next update, and keep up the great work! ^w^
Screaming crying throwing up this game is GOOD. Loving the Zero Escape-ness of it, all, but also loving the unique twists on it, like the Trolley Rule (trying to be spoiler-free!). Also Jude was meant to appeal to me specifically and I love it.
I do hope the ZE influence continues, if only because the ending scene of this first build has me close to tears and I'm so so hoping this isn't a Ninth Man scenario. But I'm super excited to learn what the fuck is happening in these folks' heads, and see the rest of the game!
I need a new build 😭
Please be patient! It's in active development right now!
I will! and looking forward to it :3 I love this so far
Juuuuude, i wonder why you end up holding hands that much with them
OMG IS THAT A ZERO ESCAPE REFERENCE
Looks so good! I love the art style and plot. Looking forward to see more of this.
Netter, Mann
What a great game!
There are many details that I love.
Such as the art, the music and above all, the story.
Although there are some who mention that they compare it to Danganronpa.
I don't see a problem with you being inspired by it (if that were the case), keep working on the story.
I'm dying to know how you will establish the mechanics of deciding who lives or who dies.
Will it be a linear story? There will be more research mechanics?
I look forward to finding out in the next update!
I can't wait to play the next build!!! I'm enamoured with this game, this is such an ambitious project I loveeee it!!!
This is *totally* not a reference to Danganronpa 🙂
"N-no, that's wrong!! Get them, Mr. Boulder!!!"
I guess we have the Toko personality using Byakuya and Makoto's lines, this should be interesting.
extremely enamored by this, 999 but with gay furries is the perfect combo for me lmao, such a strong start - can't wait to see how things progress!
I was thinking the exact same thing!!!
This was phenomenal! God, all of the characters are fantastic. The ferret is my favourite. Great work!
yah, sadly im bad with puzzles, still in the first place lol
If you're having a hard time, I posted a full walkthrough as a devlog on this page! That should help if you're having a hard time completing the investigation.
The synopsis makes me have some Valentine rain's ptsd but the art and that said synopsis got me intriged
I'm loving this game. At first I wasn't sure because it doesn't have a gay tag, oh boy was I wrong, this is a hella gay furry Vn clearly inspired by other vns like The Nonary games, Danganronpa, Ace Attorney. It's 100/10, looking forward to seeing where this project is going.
Horsetacular
Why do i hate and love everyone at the same time
I was on the edge of my seat at the end of this first build! 😁 Xou did a really good job laying out the plot and introducing characters 😌
adorei a referencia a Brasil!
Overall, this FVN is pretty decent.
All of the characters are distinguished from each other well enough and all seem interesting and fun to interact with. The puzzle gameplay is engaging and overall I'm just excited to see more of it.
Here's my playthrough I did: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLs_BZI-CHxZxxpPpNjUWOQ19OoTBPduZN&si=AVkmKg03...
oh my god, is this inspired by 999? I love 999!
I'll have an Ethan to go...
and uh...
one passport to Brazil
with a scholarship for the University of São Paulo, please
"Of course, ursinho!
The game runs smooth and the puzzles felt balanced. Main draw is to figure out how many I let die in order to spare a goober.
i love your writing! very unique, and such cute sprite expressions too! excited to read more :>
Sorta getting Echo vibes from this
I am a simple man. I see a Zero Escape-esque game, I click.
I was definitely not disappointed. All the characters are interesting and the amount of theories about what might happen throughout were not enough for the one sheet of paper I had prepared for a puzzle game. Also the premise of the game (the game the characters play, not the game as a whole) is really cool with how its laid out.
Can't wait for the next build :D
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you for playing!
It's Wrecking Time!!!
Yes, yes! The train has finally wrecked, in Brazilian. (You’ll get it…)
Jude's energy is all I need in life.
In all seriousness, you did a great job. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
