Story
The story revolves around a lonely boy named Yuki who leads a rather monotonous and dull life as a servant to repay a debt to a travelling witch. The witch has set up shop by the edge of a small and peaceful town in a cozy log cabin, which doubles as a pub late in the evening. Yuki’s main role is to do household chores around the cabin and run errands for the witch. It does not take long until Yuki meets new friends in the town and realizes his life may not be so dull after all, but suddenly something begins happening in the town. Soon Yuki finds himself in the middle of a gruesome mystery and has to figure out what is going on.

BGs, sprites, coding, some writing - Qazhax
story, most of the writing - xZidene
music - multiple artists through creative commons
Finally:
This is our first finished game so any comments would be extremely helpful.
Here are some questions that we would be happy to hear your opinions on:
Would it be worth the work to polish this and re-release later it with better music usage, more ends and other fancy stuff?
I(artist) had to write two of the endings while the real writer wrote everything else,
how easily can they be distinguished and does it affect enjoyment of the VN?
Is the 1920x1080 size too big or laggy? would a smaller version really be beneficial?
do dropbox links work well enough or what file upload sites would you recommend?
should we add this to the itch.io NaNoRenO2015 jam?
