I guess she's just that laidback, I think she got it from her mom. XD (And props to the dad, who made dinner for the dragons.)
For what it's worth, that's what I took it as. Aura doesn't seem to be the type of character who is overly concerned with formalities. In short, I don't think this is an actual problem, but that could just be me. :P

Anyway, thank you guys for such a lovely game! I can't believe it's free considering the its quality. (Makes me want to work harder on my freebies... :shock: ) Of course, I should have expected it'd be that awesome considering the team! I look forward to your other projects (the winterwolves games are the ones I know about, but I'm sure there are others. :P)!

Now back to playing! 8) I have two more endings to get!

I'm so happy you guys have liked the game so far ;v;
You have no idea how happy it makes us! (I keep repeating this, but it's so true!)

We got some good feedback too from other people outside LSF and w'll work on improving for our next game :)

I've been busy and haven't had much time to work on the art book, so it's safer to delay it for a week so I don't keep delaying my work over it ^^;

Sorry for the inconveniences *bows*

Congratulation on the release!

What a lovely game! And probably one of the most awaited one from last year NaNo too!
After having play all the paths, my only critique is that.... I didn't really understand how I got the romance endings :lol: I mean, i did almost the same choices, but poooof! Tons of cuteness instead of tons of friendship! But whatever, it's not that important X3

This game was...well done. From the main menu to the crédits in the end, from the writing to the art, everything felt polished and neat. Almost as if it was a professionnel commercial game! (But Yay! You made it free, thanks a lot! :mrgreen: )
The art was amazing (as usual I'd say), and it was really easy to understand what was going on, even for non-native-speaker (thanks a lot for this, it would have been annoying to have to look into a dictionnary every few lines :lol: ). (And the chibi scènes were so CUTE TTwTT)
It was a shame that we couldn't get to learn more about the world they live in (Ishtera, is that it?), because it felt way more developped that what we've seen...
However, this game is really good, so thanks a thousand times for making it!! :)

I enjoyed playing this game so much! The characters were lovely and the way the dragons showed their affection was so cute. The music gave me a very nice feeling and the chibis were adorable. I really want to see a sequel or a story that takes place in the same universe. Good luck with your future projects! :D

Wow, this game was great! Hehe,
(when Aura thought that Kerr was trying to eat her when he licked her neck :lol: And Auralee snuggled Ilmari's neck when she was sleeping~~~ eeee it made Ilmari have mixed feelings~!!)
I still need to play Iimari's route.

Anyways, I love Auralee because she is all about swords!! I've been craving an otome game with a headstrong heroine, and if Auralee isn't headstrong then I don't know who is! Really, I love her character and I also love Auralee and her mothers relationship. I also like the fact that there are a lot of girl knights, something I noticed while reading.

Everyones saying there should be a sequel and I agree! You guys should consider making a stat game, with studying or training as strength and intelligence stats. Anyways, sorry, I'm getting carried away.

Thanks for making this game free. I recently bought a game for $20 and I wasn't satisfied with the purchase. This game, I would of been much more happier if I had bought.

This is one of my favorite visual novels, especially otome-wise. :D
All the characters are charming, I enjoyed the FE-like voice acting (where the actors used basic dialogue and it was recycled throughout the story), the artwork is extremely nice (but I'd expect nothing less from Deji), and the story was enjoyable and simple. It's been some time since I played an EVN where I didn't once get bored with the writing, and it's a free EVN at that! (Let me tell you, I've played a demo of 2-3 EVNs, found them interesting enough to purchase the games, only to be fairly disappointed with the results.)

I played Ilmari's route about two weeks ago and I still need to play Kerr's route.
From what did play, however, I really would love to see some plans for a sequel or even a spin-off.
I would also really like to see that digital artbook. :]

Anyway, great job! I'll keep an eye out for any other visual novels you guys release (if any. I know how time consuming this can be. xD).

Ah, dragons as humans, my secret weakness! I don't know why, I have a fondness for powerful, divine or quasi-divine beings assuming a weak bipedal form for a while.

First of all, the game is quite beautiful. Great assets, great chibis, great CGs, great UI. All green.

Next the story is simple but I did enjoy it a lot. The characters are all goods, the rhythm is consistent, we discover a handful of places and people (at first, I feared all game will take place in the forest). I also especially like that for once, the friendship ending is also a good one. I have enough of VNs where no active romance=a disappointing, cut short bad ending.

If I had to find a bad point, I would say I find the small sounds the characters sometimes make ("Woah!", "What the hell?"...), the pseudo-dub, not so great. Perhaps because it remind me too much of Navi's "Hey listen", but I don't think these sounds really add something to the dialogs. Also, is it me or do they almost disappear past the first quarter?

To summarize this in one sentence: it's great stuff, just go read it.

PS : Is Lady Bayard a reference to Pierre Terrail?
PPS : If you decide to make a not free sequel (using Kickstarter for example), I will gladly pay for it.
