You step into the shoes of Lev/Liubov Morgenshtern, a bigender writer living in the city of Svet-Dmitrin. You meet and get to know one Anzu Menelik, beautiful and mysterious.
mfML is my first game! it's a short romance piece, text-only but story-based and rather VN-like. i finished and released in February 2017, but it didn't occur to me to post it here until now.
the gameplay is very simple, clicking through choices to follow the story. the protagonist/POV character is non-malleable. both the POV character and their date are trans in one way or another. the game is very short, around 5k-6k words—it's more of a vignette than anything.
i very much welcome feedback of all kinds!
warning! turn down your volume, the music autoplays and is loud. PLAY
I liked this a lot. I don't think I explored all of the dialogue options that I could have in just one playthrough, but everything that I saw was great (with the minor exception of "you're" instead of "your" at one point in the very beginning, but it wasn't that big a deal).
Anzu and Lev were characterized well, their voices were consistent the whole time. I also liked the fantasy faux-Russian sort of setting you had going on. I'd read more stuff based in/about that world.
The ending was very sweet. I like a good happy ending to my short stories.
