Nadia <3
I'm so amazed to see all of the work you've done. Well and truly beyond the standard of a nanoreno game, I think, haha.
Can't wait to see the finished product!

Re: The Reject Demon: Toko [GxG][RomCom][NaNoWriMo]
Thanks! I'm going to wait on release to let people see the rest of the art. Unfortunately this has become far beyond a regular Naniwrimo project and we've taken an equivalent 2 months of work to finish it. But I hope it's worth it in the end~

We are undergoing final CG, UI and scripting stuff. We sent out an early beta and if you're following us on twitter you can use #TRDtoko to talk about the game and also look for announcements about it soon.

Loved the story, but it seemed to be just a prologue to a bigger plot centered around the Rock Completion. It just left me wanting more.
I'm also just assuming from the way things turned out that that there will be no additional love interests for Toko in the future? I've got nothing against yurige that focus on one predetermined couple, but it seems like Hanabira has made it the standard.
Re: The Reject Demon: Toko [GxG][RomCom]Feb.14th
I'm happy to see more GxG works in the making, and was anticipating this release today. Overall, presentation wise, the game is very beautiful, especially the sprites. Even with exaggerated bust sizes, I like the faces and clothes and bodies for all your characters. The music is very pretty as well, almost reminds me a bit of Disgaea for some strange reason, haha. As someone who loves using demons in fiction, I already like the story in your world about souls and psychopomp demons, as well as the losing their history/emotions bit. The characters so far are likable, even if a lot of them don't seem to have too much screentime to really get to know them better.
On to the critical parts of this game:
On to the critical parts of this game:
As the person above me said, the game felt like it was intended to be an episodic story or at least an extended version. It felt more like a prologue for the actual plot involving the music competition. It's completely fine if you intend to make a sequel of some sorts, but I do think maybe you should mention it somewhere just to avoid confusion.
I felt like the romance between Nadia and Toko was too rushed. I understand that their love was a catalyst for her awakening Epiphany (cool character btw), but I wonder if maybe there was a way to spark this awakening without an anguished declaration of love. It's especially harder to believe when Toko supposedly is unused to emotional drives of human, so the sudden jump to realizing what love was, and that she definitely is sure about her feelings with Nadia was a bit unexpected. At the very least, perhaps she should have had more struggle understanding her feelings. If this supposedly has a sequel, it would be even neater to keep their relationship vague for now, since all the other potential love interests could be interesting as well.
Another thing that bothered me was the transition of images, some sprites and scenes would move rather abruptly, I think maybe having some slow dissolving would be easier for me.

Re: The Reject Demon: Toko [GxG][RomCom]Feb.14th
Thanks Sanae
The sudden confession is a common criticism, we tweaked those scenes during beta. What I tried to convey was not that Toko had learned about love so suddenly, but that she had spent years around Nadia. There's some elements to the story that are more outright insinuated, like Toko's assignments, and her later confession she spent most of those assignments trying to tak Nadia's soul. It's a case of showing too much and not enough telling.
But yea, given the Naniwrimo-ness of the story, and my still ongoing DH work the game is short. The idea isn't so much to make the story episodic and have to make people wait forever for more parts. But yes the game is kind of a primer. If the interest is there in keeping Toko going, there will be a different, regularly updating medium I will continue it in. Alongside slow long-term projects like Dizzy Hearts.Re: The Reject Demon: Toko [GxG][RomCom]Feb.14th

Murcielago, thought currently the chapters with her aren't translated yet.
