So glad V0.19 is out! Can't wait to re-play and see what all is new! ^0^

Done! I actually gave it 5 stars after about 5 hours because I figured out it was something special by that point. Then played it for 45 more!

I just got here, so I don't know the update history here. But I will always advocate for a "it's ready when it's ready" approach. Take as long as you need to as much as you want to. <3

I just blitzed through 52 hours of some of the best character writing I've ever had the pleasure of reading in the last four days. Like, I am simply impressed with how Runey has not only grown as a writer over the years but also with how these characters transform from "single-word archetypes" to fully-fledged, interconnected people with hopes, dreams, fears, and growth. Even side characters like Kate appear to have a ton of consideration for what makes them unique, how that changes how they navigate through the world and in relationships, and why they're looking for connection with the player or other characters.

And on top of all that, there's a legitimately fascinating plotline that weaves these lives together while actively building a world that is equal parts wildly different and all-too-familiar.

I look forward to watching this game continue to grow into its second act!
