the game was off to a depressing start and playing this in the current year when all those times were behind felt almost unreal and just hit close to home especially those who suffered greatly, and had it difficult so i guess it nailed those kind of atmosphere especially with the bright colored graphics contrasting the retro-ish effect and fitting the hopeful undertones, until..
(spoiler)
the bomb. Man was it successful having me devastated like that after the attempts of trying to reconnect with your drifting family members, I got attached to the characters and even more with Karey;; almost cried but really pressing on that willpower to not cry, since there was just this despair settling in along with the hinting clues and unsolved(?) mysteries. There were just many questions, and theories but I really hoped that Karey at least didn't die, and Haru still lived, I want them happy together too if this story were to be continued on... (even got myself feeling curious about Max/the bonus room host)
The translation were a bit off at some parts and missed the intended meaning (like prepotism supposed to be nepotism unless I misread, and the thermal usage word in phrase "thermal goes off"? I literally searched Google and didn't get it but I think it was along the lines of someone "blew their fuse"/"lose temper"). Though it's understandable why the barrier language couldn't be passed that smoothly sometimes, I still appreciate the effort put into this game overall). There were other things I wondered about, if it was on purpose that after I talked with Lin first, I wouldn't be able to talk further with the mom even when I faced the fridge to offer up what mom wanted, so on my second replay and loading save file back, I interacted with the mom first. Also, about how Lin was in her room on the third day/night where Lin was supposed to be only on the living room with the mom talking together.
Putting all that aside, I looked forward to play more from your projects, rooting for them characters and lores!
Hi! Thank you so much again for playing and also for taking the time to write this comment, I really appreciate it a lot, thanks for the feedback! I’m so glad you liked it and that it made you feel all these emotions, certainly this game started as a kind of release from all that stress that isolation implied, and how bad it made being locked up at those times.
Yes, it’s true that sometimes the translation gets out of hand for some phrases, it’s a bit difficult to translate proverbs, analogies and metaphors without avoiding them sounding literal and meaningless when translating hahaha, so thanks for the note, it really helps me a lot!!!
You really inspire me to continue, it’s difficult to go down this path alone since it’s just me doing all the work and in my free time but it really makes me feel very fulfilled when I read comments like yours, they make me very happy! And since I’m so grateful, I’ll tell you something interesting;
Karey and Haru are still alive and will appear in another story ;)
Anyway, I don't usually update much here so I recommend you to follow me on Instagram, there I always post news about my projects and also great illustrations of my characters. See you in the full version of L'Avant Garde ;D
No problem, I enjoyed it, and it did give me something to think/reflect on certainly. Glad to hear that they will appear again! I can sleep more in peace knowing they're both alive :,,D
Yes about your Instagram, I was thinking that perhaps you posted the wrong link in your overall itch.io? Or just lacked the delusion word... Since the one I clicked on this page for example led me to a private account under the username of only mylloux without any indication that relates it to you unlike another one I found and certain it was yours; @myllouxdelusion, right?
just a problem though i got this when i first tried interacting with the mom:( i had installed all the important stuffs (RTP and fonts) beforehand though so could you help me out? do I need like redownload the game
Thank you for playing the game! I really appreciate it!! Okay, your problem is because the native file has a "á" in the name file (my bad, I'm Spanish native speaker and forgot that kind of detail in the translation) and your computer doesn't recognize it. Just add in your system the "Latin American" language or keyboard settings, so that your PC can read the accents! If the problem persist, then please wait a little for the update of the game (I'll fix that soon) Sorry for the troubles!
Yeah, I'm digging it so far, problem solved (had to change through the system locale though since just adding language or keyboard didn't work), still thanks for the fast reply! It's alrighty👌
