[MissArel]

OH. MY. GOD.

My bae is coming! <3 Im so happy, thank you for making the Amesbury route :3

[Harliqueen]

I SCREAMED!!!!!!!!!!

OH MY GOD THANK YOU I'M SO HAPPY This is the best news ever <3
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!! I can't. Sorry. I'll be... there, in the corner... fangirling extremly hard.
Every player will be delighted, I'm sure. After all, we ALL wanted Amesbury e_e
Ahhh~ Life is good.

Well, this made me smile all day I'm really glad you're excited for it! Hopefully not too long away now...

Was not expecting that so soon, but this is awesome to hear! ^_^

I wasn't going to do Amesbury's route, but then so many people seemed disappointed he wasn't available So, I was hoping I'd be able to get his route out in time as a sort of early Christmas present to everyone who has shown such support to The Lady's Choice!

OH. MY. GOD.

My bae is coming! <3 Im so happy, thank you for making the Amesbury route :3

He is indeed! And I hope he lives up to expectations

I just realised... you made Diving in Deep! OMG. I played that game a long time ago and I loved it <3 Sorry for not letting you know (maybe I did? Idk). Now I can say that I played both of your games and I REALLY hope you will be making more in the future ^^ I actually wouldn't mind if they're not free. Your amazing work deserves to be paid TBH. (Not too expensive, I hope xD I would love to support you, but my wallet is rather empty haha)

BUT IF THEY CONTINUE TO BE FREE, HEY, I'M NOT COMPLAINING haha (Free things are good, but when games like yours are not only great but FREE? Oh, man. My day has been made xD) I wish I could do SOMETHING to support you. If I knew how to draw you would be getting fanarts every day. I could TRY writing fanfiction but english is not my first language and the result could be... well, not pretty lol We would all cringe so hard n_n

Do it anyway! That's what this forum is for - to share you work and improve it with practice! (There's no way it could be cringier than my old fan fiction, anyway. cx)

I did do Diving in Deep Oh man, that feels like forever ago! It was my first visual novel.

I am hoping to actually make a living from visual novels, so I will be releasing commercial one in the future. I have one in the works, but that's been put on hold until I finish Amesbury's route (which will be free!).

Thank you so, so much for your support. You have no idea how much it means to me And also, I would LOVE fanfiction. Seriously, the fact that you would even be willing to think of writing me fanfiction in a language that is not your first language is incredible! I cannot string a sentence together in another language, so I am in awe that you have learnt another language, and I guarantee any writing you did would be awesome!

Don't feel put off writing in english just because it's not your native language. English speakers should be accomodating you because you're the one who has put in the effort to learn english for them to understand!

I hope that made sense ^^'

^ This exactly! (My early fanfiction was just... *shudders*)

[Fantasysci5]

This is such great news, thank you! I'm so excited!

[procutemeister]

OMG! It's done! I've been waiting for this since I played through the demo Congrats on finishing! I'll drop a review once I play.

EDIT: Finally finished my first playthrough... obviously I went for Blake. Military boys are a weakness tbh...

I love him so much, he's such a sweetheart!

Initially I wasn't really crazy about him since he seemed so awkward and reluctant but I decided to go for him cos Stanton was just a bit too sketchy for me, and also (like Lydia Bennet said) "Officers!!" It did take me a while to really warm up to him, but when I did it was soo worth it. He's such a cutie <3 also I was squealing at probably every single intimate moment. And at the blindfold game, and the training scene in the park oh my...

Anyway, I'm off to play Stanton's route now And I'm so excited for Amesbury!! Can't wait to play his route too Thanks so much for this great game! <3 Regency

[Sonomi]

Thank you for sharing this work of art with us!

I played Blake's path and was very impressed with your classy style of writing. It certainly fits the setting portrayed in the story. I found this read incredibly engaging. Like Kirlett, I also look forward to your future VNs!

[wyverngem]

Yay! Didn't get a bad end! *coughs* Ahem, ^^; Great game. I was caught with the first choice in game. It was very enjoyable and I'm really shocked I got Issac's True end first. ^_^ I never get good endings on the first try. Also, very sweet. It was all around very good. Great job!

[Kikaharu]

It's cool that Amesbury is getting a route. I might be saying something you might have heard before but I think Walter (aka "Duke Creep von Creepster" as you say) I think he should have a romantic path too. Now I know how weird that might be. I loved playing your game it was really fun and I totally agree that he is a creep but I am just curious as to how much of that is 100% him so I really think it would be interesting to have a romantic path with him. So if you ever do make one for him, I say that would be awesome. But if you don't well that up to you and it's not that big of a deal.

[MadQueen]

I enjoyed this game much more than I ever thought I would.
At first I thought this type of game isn't for me, but I gave it a shot anyway and MY GOD is it now one of my top favorite games <3
I played both Isaac's and Guy's route and the way they were constructed seemed very pleasing to me. Also, the concept of dating a captain / a "gambling addict" are so specific to that era and yet so intriguing. I've never played a game like this before, thank you for offering The Lady's Choice for free if needed, as I don't own a card at the moment to support the projects T^T But hopefully I'll get a new one soon and get on with supporting the next projects ^-^
The true love endings filled my heart with joy. I did wish for more, though T^T I acknowledge the story ended exactly where it should have, but my inner self desperately wished for more T^T
And this is why I wanted to ask if you'll ever make extra-scenes for this game that can be downloaded just like the game itself? Something with the wedding, something with kids maybe, something hot, whatever crosses your mind and happens post-game.
Once again, thank you the amount of work you put into this game! For me, at least, it seems definitely worth it ^-^

[Harliqueen]

(Sorry for the late replies, didn't realise I'd had comments on the thread Been so focused on working Amesbury's route!)

@Fantasysci5 - I'm really glad you're excited. Hopefully it won't be long until his route's released!

@procutemeister - Yeah, it did rather go over my time limit for NaNo to get the game finished ^^; Hoping it was worth the wait though!
Blake is a cutie... once you get past that wall of politeness Hope you enjoyed Stanton's route just as much!

@Sonomi - Oh, wow! Thank you so much for your kind words and compliments. I really tried to fit the writing style to the time period, but still make it engaging to a modern audience. So, it's so great to hear people enjoyed the style!

@wyverngem - Yeah, I'm not a fan of bad ends, so I made it so as you had to actually choose to get a bad end, rather than have it as a consequence of choices.
I didn't make it too hard to get true love ends, because everyone loves a happy ending, right?

@Kikaharu - Poor Walter... Well, not really poor Walter, he is a major creep! I think it would be seriously difficult to write a romance route for him, as his sole focus is mostly on title and wealth. There's not much romance or feeling in him!

@MadQueen - I'm so glad you gave it a chance! I think historical romances can be quite uncertain for some people, but I've found that most people enjoy them once they get going on them
Any NaNo projects I do I have decided will always be free
I know a lot of people were disappointed I didn't have time to put in epilogues, which was something I had hoped to do.
Maybe in the future I mgiht do something as extras. Not sure.
I'm definitely going to have to start working on commercial projects after Amesbury, as I'm hoping to go into VNs as career

Thank you so much to everyone who left such kind comments! It's so motivating to hear how people are enjoying it (some unexpectedly so!).

Amesbury's route is coming along really well, and it's looking like it will still be on track for December release!

[Kirlett]

I almost had a heart attack when I saw your reply. I thought Amesbury was out already and...
All I want for Christmas... is Regency Romance ♪
Sorry, this doesn't even contribute to the post xD I'm just excited.

Aww thank you for taking the idea of extras into consideration ^-^ Really, that would be a nice replacement for the epilogue xD
Also, I'm quite excited to hear about a new route as well!!! Hope you're having fun doing it. And I'm sure a VN career would (DEFINITELY!!) suit you ^-^

[procutemeister]

omg good luck with a VN career! I'm sure you'd be great at it
And i really can't wait for Amesbury's route, it'll be an excellent Christmas present! <3
