Ahhhh! Love this! Karrus! His voice! His blush! His eyes! His smile! He’s too good. Man, so good. This was great - the pacing was wonderful, it wasn’t too text-heavy or overwhelming with a bunch of text at once - it paced well, flowed well. I loved that you got to know Karrus, the MC, and even some of the fellow adventurers a bit, too. It’s great! The writing, art, music - all of it was so wonderful!
The heart wants what it wants and gosh dangit my heart's here falling for this smooth-talking reckless galavanting hero with a soft heart and a warm embrace hhhhh-
This is so clean, so good, so charming- (It made me legit blush IRL so shout-out to the wonderful writing and Trenton's voice acting ohh the total package is a joy!)
Thank you so much for playing, and I'm glad you love Karrus (he's such a cutie!)
I want to do more games with Karrus for sure! A couple of ideas are floating around in my head are a short wedding-themed game + a bigger game that details your adventure with him, from beginning to end! Though right now, I have a few other projects on my plate and I'm funding them with my own money. So, for right now, Karrus will need to take a backseat until I'm equip to work on these ideas. :)
Though, if you like Karrus, consider buying the wallpaper bundle if you can! It has the three CGs from this game as well as six new original illustrations and three chibi wallpapers. :)
It's so good. I'm so angry that it's good. God. He's so cute and so hot. If you're not gonna give me more Karrus, I'm gonna have to take more with my own two hands. Hhhh.
Aaaah, it was a lovely game Kristi, that I really enjoyed! Congrats to all the team!!!
First, the writing was very sweet and I appreciated how the game managed to take several aspects of romance into consideration, and how they all felt romantic. In that regard, having a CG for both options (the "fling" one and the "ace" one, for a lack of better words) was good: all reactions are valid, and I loved that! Also, I appreciated how the circumstances of the confession varied depending on our feelings: it really painted Karrus as caring for us, about our specific feelings, and it felt more personal to see him comfort me or have fun with me in all these different timelines!
The art was also amazing! The CGs and the chibis were all amazing! The GUI too was amazing-looking, logo included! Finally, the music track held all the epicness of the adventure which was coming to an end, finally giving room to something else and perhaps... something more with a tiefling?
Well, long story short, this was a great game and congrats to everyone involved!
I'm glad you enjoyed the game, Hinata. Thank you so much for playing. If you can, please make sure to leave a star rating/review so the game can get discovered by more people. :) 💙
A sweet short game, a lovely moment between two members of an adventure team who've fallen in love with each other. It was really nice to play, and Karrus is such a cool character! I'd love to learn more about him.
As many have mentioned, I love the inclusion of the option to cuddle. As someone who most of the time is sex-repulsed, I really appreciate it (have had enough times where I simply /had/ to go through scenes I didn't feel comfortable with in romances).
It may be odd, but I also really like that the cuddling option has its own CG, because I feel sometimes if there's an option, only the spicy scene gets a CG and the others miss out on something like that entirely- this is also why I appreciate being able to unlock the other CG without needing to play that path!
Thank you, Pidge! And maybe one day if there's enough demand. Would love to write about the group's shenanigans while Karrus and Nox are helplessly falling in love with each other. 🤣
Awesome game!! I love all the different transitions, it really added to the story-telling, the artwork is gorgeous. And Karrus is very handsome and dreamy! Fantastic job all around!
Of course, of course! As an asexual person myself, I hate how a majority of romance games don't include more ways to express your love. The scene just always ends in sex or like you said, a fade to black if you decide to do nothing (and sometimes the love interest is expresses disappointment when you do this!) It can feel so awful sometimes.
So when making this game (and any future romance game), it's a goal of mine to include an option tailored for asexual individuals. That way, they can enjoy the game just as much as an allosexual would! :)
Aaaahhh this was so adorable!!! T___T Karrus is such a sweetheart, I can feel just how much he cares about the MC with every word he says <3 I love how this story tackles loneliness, and how fulfilled it makes you when someone you care deeply about wants to be by your side. The fact that there's also an option for those who are on the ace spectrum, sex-repulsed or simply just prefer fluff, to end the night with Karrus by cuddling is fantastic. While I'm not sex-repulsed, I'm still gray ace and I've always felt quite disconnected from stories that lead to sex so quickly or where it's super vital for the romance to "feel complete". Whenever I find stories like this, where sex isn't or doesn't necessarily have to be the utmost expression of love, it makes me feel seen. Thank you so much for making this game, I loved it a lot!!! <3
AHHH SO GLAD YOU LIKED IT PRI!!! And I'm so glad you picked up on that feeling of loneliness. It's a small note in the game that's only elaborated on if you pick the sad option. The idea of breaking away from a group of people you've built a close relationships with is heartbreaking. And like you said, to know you're not alone in that feeling and that one of those people wishes to stay by you is really relieving.
AND YES! That cuddle option was my favorite part to write hands down. It was so cute and it felt rewarding. It felt complete, if you know what I'm saying? Because often times, if you don't choose to have sex, the alternative scene is...nothing and it fucking sucks. So hearing you praise that particular scene really means a lot to me, from one ace to another. <3
i hope u don't mind if i just start this comment rn and just type my reactions as i go. also, i just wanna say real quick that i may be biased bc im the character artist LOL HERE I GO

THIS TITLE SCREEN SETS THE VIBES FRFR LOVE THE SFX AND VISUAL EFFECTS IT'S FIRE (haha lol)
i rly love how clean the UI is. bless.
omfg this music is FIRE TOO. it rly sets the mood im gonna cry
it's definitely not weird to BLUSH at a character u drew urself (he just touched my face im SCREAMING INTERNALLY)
maybe still biased of me to say, but i rly feel like i've known Karrus for a long time despite having only just "met" him after downloading and playing.
also GRADE A USE OF EXPRESSIONS OMG. i actually find myself mirroring his expressions as i read LOL
I FEEL SO BIASED BUT THE DIALOGUE U WROTE COUPLED WITH HIS THE MUSIC AND EXPRESSIONS IM DOWN BAD
GUUUUUURRRRRRLLLLLL i love the banter with him omfg. he's also just super sweet wtf i love him
THE CHIBIS ARE SO CUTE IM YELLING
eff me i'll hear him say "i love you" a billion times and never get tired of it
aaAAAA thank u for this wonderful experience, kristi! sobs i rly enjoyed every second with him hhhhhhghhh
AHHHHH ARI!!! This is such an amazing comment??? Thank you so much??
AND YESSS! I was really hoping to build that connection between you (the player) and Karrus to make it seem like y'all really were on this long adventure together. So glad I achieved my goal!!!
THE EXPRESSIONS YESSSS!!! I love it when he goes >///> and >:)
KARRUS IS THE SWEETEST. I LOVE WRITING SWEET BEANS!!!!! Though he was also the first smooth talker that I wrote so I'm glad that he was able to charm ya~
THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN FOR YOUR LOVELY REVIEW AND COMMENT ARI! ALSO THANK YOU FOR LITERALLY DRAWING KARRUS AND THE GAME'S BACKGROUNDS!!!???? <3 <3 <3
(copied from review to help algo) Short and Sweet, with plenty of accessibility options and with consideration for sex-repulsed folks. The writing feels kind and gentle and the art is wonderful. It's obvious to see that it was made with lots of care and love <3

Well, if this is what you come up with on a "spur of the moment brainrot" I'm happily looking forward to more.
The heart wants what it wants and gosh dangit my heart's here falling for this smooth-talking reckless galavanting hero with a soft heart and a warm embrace hhhhh-
This is so clean, so good, so charming- (It made me legit blush IRL so shout-out to the wonderful writing and Trenton's voice acting ohh the total package is a joy!)
I'm in love with the game. I'm in love with Karrus. Are there going to be more games like this with Karrus?

It's so good. I'm so angry that it's good. God. He's so cute and so hot. If you're not gonna give me more Karrus, I'm gonna have to take more with my own two hands. Hhhh.
