Yes.~ It sounds great, I don't know how I missed this thread before. And the sprite art is beautiful too!

2. What do you think of the characters so far?
They sound quite interesting. I like the main character's personality, and I'm curious about Frost and the prince.

I wish you the best of luck in completing the game!

1. Does the story interest you? Would you want to play this game? The story seems super interesting! I would definitely want to play the game for sure! I can't wait for the demo to come out! I would love to know how Dina meets the other characters and whether they'll help her along her journey.

2. What do you think of the characters so far? They all seem really interesting! I like the protagonist the best after reading all the personality traits xD. She'll definitely make the story unique and maybe a bit funny too! I may be wrong but Dina seems to be a stubborn girl who refuses to listen to others except for the people she trust. She'll probably make sarcastic comments throughout her journey with Tobias. I can just imagine the conversations-maybe perhaps arguments-Dina will have with him.

1. Does the story interest you? Would you want to play this game?

Yes to both--GxB, Fantasy, Adventure, and Romance are a blend of some of my most favorite genres. The premise sounds interesting. I've heard it before, but I'm sure your execution will be entertaining. That's what matters!

2. What do you think of the characters so far?

I love trying to figure out the moral alignments of characters. You've presented a colorful array of personalities, so I'd love to learn more about their stances, Dina especially. I'm willing to bet she's a thief with a heart of a goal kind. Also, Frost's design is adorable and his personality is adorable and I'm going to romance him first. He (and I'm assuming other Windlings) remind me of sylphs.

I can't wait for the demo! Once it's release, expect another post from me. Luckily, I have Otakon to fill me in as I wait. I followed your blog on Tumblr, and plan to eagerly watch its production!

1. Does the story interest you? Would you want to play this game?
Yes and yes!! I love adventure stories, so I'm excited to see what will happen to Dina on her journey~

2. What do you think of the characters so far?

I love knight characters so of course I'm excited to see what Tobias is like~ And Prince Kieran... He seems suspicious! For some reason I have him pegged as being the evil guy, haha :'D

I'm looking forward to your demo!

@Harmonywish
Yeah, I'm looking forward to writing the conversations/arguments too lol

@neuropsy

The game hooked me immediately! From the beginning to the end, my curiosities were piqued. I know the demo was short, but throughout my whole playthrough, I consistently wanted to know more about what was going on and never got bored. In other words, the plot was fast-paced and intriguing.

I have to say, I love Dina's brash personality. Her comments towards the two noblewomen made me laugh. Also, for some reason, I'm rather fond of Benji. I hope he plays a role later on in the story. He seems like a good guy. Dina's expression when he shoveled the food into his mouth... xD

My only lament...

I wanted to see my waifu, Frost. I know the 'Prince' mentioned him, but I was as confused as Dina...

The only suggestion I have is to release a demo version with music, since music can do wonders to adding to the general feeling of a particular scene. I still enjoyed the demo a lot regardless, though!

[candichan06]

@neuropsy

I'm glad you liked it; I was worried that it was too fast-paced (lol) but so far feedback has been positive . And I don't think that's the last we'll see of Benji; I am rather fond of him too.

As for your lament, I may release a fuller demo later on, with more story

including appearance of your waifu because I'm sure you aren't the only one who was sad not to see him

, music and final BGs. Haven't decided yet though. The reason I didn't add music this time was because I was nervous about messing it up with bad choices, although it sounds silly when I say it out loud lol.

[Heiden]

I just finished the demo! I enjoyed it!

I could tell a lot of thought has been put into the story, the writing was just dripping with foreshadowing, I loved it~

I'm looking forward to seeing what Frost is like, he seems really cute XD.

AND I KNEW IT, something was fishy with Prince Kieran!

Are you planning on putting music in the full version? O: I love BGM so I was a little sad to hear that there wasn't any music in the demo.

I'm eagerly looking forward to the full version!

[candichan06]

@Heiden

I'm so glad you liked it! Also, yes, music will definitely be in the full game! My dream is to hire Christopher Escalante on as the game's composer, but I can't afford that out of pocket (medical bills = ugggh) so my plan is to launch a Kickstarter campaign for the funds and cross my fingers until I can't feel them anymore lol. But whether that happens or not, there'll still be music, not to worry!
