I love love love the game sooo much, more than I realise. I took me forever to play this game but I enjoyed it thoroughly.
MAJOR SPOILERS LIKE THIS WOULD RUIN THE WHOLE GAME EXPERINCE IF U READ THIS. WARNING WARNING.
Finally putting my art gcse into use.
Lololol it's messy but I like it. Idk I felt so bad for dollmaker Kuro and clone 339. The world was against them, and they went up against the world, they gave their lives for love. The love of shiro and Mc.
I just find it so sad because they only had such short moments of happiness in hell. They've only know pain and suffering, waking up in a war....I wished they had a proper happy ending, but ngl I understand why they didn't have a happy ending.
Idk I just like dollmaker Kuro out of everyone, because he genuinely cares about Mc from the bottom of his heart, and in a world full of darkness his clinging onto what little hope there is... warmed my heart.
Nahhh and when I found out that Bad end 6 was actually a bad end cause although they're free, theyr were going to be eaten/destroyed by monsters. NOOOOOOO
So I drew this cause in another lifeee, they would be aliveeee. Any ways my drawing is the canon Cg for good ending 3, where my babies are alive
Also the game's theme song is really really good.
I wish you the best and stay safe during these crazy times
I’m glad you decided to check it out & that you had fun with it ^-^ Thanks so much for playing! And also thanks for sharing that awesome art!! It’s beautiful <3
I guess I should also say...
SPOILERS below x3
Tbh, I also felt really bad for them xD And at the same time, I also feel bad for players that I didn’t give them an option of a happier ending x3 It makes me feel kinda evil, haha.
Then again, it was supposed to be a pretty bleak story of despair, sooooo *insert evil laughter here* :P
But yeah, to me, that particular pairing was my OG couple, even if they weren’t technically the OGs, haha.
I’m happy you ended up liking dollmaker Kuro the best because he was also my favourite Kuro :D I’m not usually into characters who look or act more childlike, but the more I wrote for him, the more heart kinda just bled for the poor fella because he’s so innocent and his love is so pure, bless him!
Your drawing is so sweet & gorgeous! Absolutely love it ^-^
Glad you like the theme song too! I was rewatching Spirited Away the other day & it suddenly hit me how similar SR’s opening instrumental part is to Haku’s theme x3
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdSHC4l0qAk
I only wrote the lyrics & performed the female vocals on that, so it wasn’t my fault, haha. My friend wrote the music itself & did male vocals. And now I am wondering if it is a coincidence or if he somehow had Spirited Away’s soundtrack in his head influencing him subconsciously xD
Thank you so much for taking the time to type up such a lovely comment & for playing the game anyhow! I wish the best to you too & hope you are also able to stay safe + well :3
Hello TvT do you still have all the route sprites of kuro and shiro? I wanted to make a video of them and also the mc if you still have can you send it to me? :D
Hmm, I actually don’t know x3 I really hope so somewhere!! But because all my SR project files were on an ancient USB, I can’t remember if I backed them up to a hard drive, haha. I must’ve done, but I haven’t finished sorting out a lot of my files since getting my new PC >.<
Even if I can find them though, I’d have to put them on backgrounds or something to send because even though they were made in the generator I purchased, the artist still stated in their terms of use that any characters you make in the generator must not be posted anywhere on their own as PNGs/JPEGs, etc. >.< They have to be in a game, in a video, on a web page sorta thing, unfortunately :(
I’m guessing it wouldn’t be very helpful to send them with backgrounds though >.<
Yeah, that’s fine :3 I mean, I doubt the artist would ever even know about it if I did just send the sprites without a background, but it’s just one of those things where I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to do it cos it would be morally wrong after agreeing to the terms of use x3
It might take me a little while to actually locate the files cos I’ve got a lot of irl stuff to catch up on this month that I’ve been neglecting >.< but as soon as I have them, I’ll send them your way :3
Im kinda confused this is the GxB wherein Kuro is male? im so sorry to ask I dont mean to offend, but am I the one in the teaser pictures or is it kuro? the character looks like a girl or he is just long haired?
Yup, Kuro is male :3 And no worries at all! I know the sprites are a little odd in this, haha. I like androgynous-looking characters anyhow, but because this was my first-ever game, I didn’t have much choice but to use what I could find >.<
Basically, I couldn’t find a single sprite set from any artist that contained enough sprites to cover all the different worlds I hoped to portray in the project (my own dumb fault for trying to make such a long story for my first game >.<), but I did come across a sprite generator with a looooot of customisation options, enough to cover what I needed. I pretty much had no choice but to use it, haha.
I made every character sprite using the generator. It was cool because it had a wide range of hair pieces to combine to create different hairstyles, and also a decent number of clothing options, but it was lacking in the style of the eyes + the body models >.<
All the ones at the top of the page where it says “Choose your heroine. Choose your fate…” Then some pictures of heads with the captions of: “The Student, The Mage, The Princess, The Detective, The Gamer, and ???” are headshots of the heroine/MC/protagonist.
All the headshots below where it says “Your guardian spirit, Kuro, takes many forms…” are headshots of the different versions of Kuro from the different world routes in the same order as the headshots for MC are listed :3
So blue-haired Kuro = student route Kuro, green = mage route, yellow = clan princess route, magenta = detective route, purple = gamer route, and ??? = the hidden route.
Despite the fairly feminine appearance of Kuro, the voice acting actually matches the sprites really well :3
But yeah, Kuro is definitely a guy, but he does have long hair in a couple of the world routes, haha. Longest hair = mage route Kuro cos it’s down past his butt! x3
The most masculine-looking one is actually in the hidden route, haha.
I do hope to remake this someday since it was my first game and I have a lot more knowledge + use a different engine now, but it’s not a priority. Just something that would be really nice to eventually do when I’ve finished some of the projects I’ve currently got on the go.
Oh my goodness. I seriously needed to leave a comment after finally getting every ending. That was...beautiful. Absolutely wonderful!! I can't stop thinking about everything. I had a blast playing! That last part of the true ending made me sequel. I LOVE when games do that kinda thing. Such a fun way to freak someone out!! There was a lot of fun twists too. I may not totally understand what happened here 100%, but I had a damn fun time. Leaving with a ton of answers yet still getting some more questions is all part of the fun sometimes! You and everyone that took part in this game made something wonderful! Can't wait to play more of what you've done and check out everyone else's work!
<3 <3 <3 Thanks so much for checking it out & leaving such a kind comment ^-^ With this being my first-ever project and it looking a little dated now, I always imagine if anyone comes across it, they probably pass it up x3 So yeah, it means a lot that you gave it a chance and stuck with it :D
Glad you liked the freaky stuff too, haha. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm a sucker for that sort of thing, hehe.
If you do end up checking out more of my stuff, I hope you end up enjoying it just as much (or even more! x3)
Sorry I’m so slow >.< I’m suuuuuper behind on all my replies atm, and my PC died towards the end of April, so that hasn’t helped, haha. Now I’m working on something for otome jam, so I’m absorbed in that, but because I still don’t have a new PC up and running properly, I’m trying to do everything atm on the family potato laptop which is awful xD
I’m actually not sure what Shiro’s mbti would be! I’d have to go back through all the types and read up on everything again cos I don’t remember most of the info off of the top of my head x3
I know when I did mine yearsago, it said I was INFP-T, haha.
If I had to guess off the top of my head without researching more, I would guess Shiro would possibly be INFJ or ISFJ, but I couldn’t say for sure >.<
i cannot resist the urge to make another fan art of this game soo...xD
they look so lovely here full of love and affection wahhh TvT idk why i am so attached to this game actually i think it made me very comfortable when i played this game and i was so desperate to get to the ??? route LMAO thank you for making this beautiful game i am so shocked that you made this years ago.
And the amount of effort you made for this game is just it, i never seen any visual novel that had many effort's sometimes i just wonder why they aren't any fandom of this when you created this beautifully and the words got me dwelling lol
I cannot be much more sad that it isn't popular in tiktok it'd be nice if many many thousands of people know about this game and many fan arts of this
and if you recreate in this game in the future i hope it will be much more popular amongside thousands of people i mean this game has many players who played this before but it was before i actually got a glimpse of the old kuro design and it was great but i prefer kuro's style now i think that artstyle is 2000's anime artstyle if i am correct
! SPOILERS !
this game is so unique but we still don't know much about that guy on the end who kicked me out of the game (LOL) i was so scared that time and i was like what...?
And i wonder who is the guy and girl who speaks on the first route on ??? and who is Anathema exactly
is that guy some sort of uhm a guardian angel or something? or he is just watching our journey for fun or could he be the one behind this all?
i heard him say after i finished the game he said "No one can't love you like i do"
maybe perhaps he might be the real lover of Anathema? this is such a mystery that's why i love this game anyways just a question when will you recreate this game?
I give kudos to the voice actors and to you for you're all dedication of this game and the amount of time it must have taken is crazy...
anyways i give this game a 5 star i love this game sooo much i will always be back to play this >w< !!
And is that guy from the gamer route he sounds like it very much and he also called the player "Anathema" once so if my theory is correct he might be it
Actually are you still indeed of a CG Artist? you can hire me for free if you want >w< !! i want to support you i saw on your patreon bio that you're indeed of an Artist so maybe you can hire me! if you want anyways please if you made up you're mind please add me on my dc account it's rjifjriojrgitigtig#4901 it would be my pleasure to work with you! <3!
Oooo :o That one is so cool too! :D They do look so passionate and in love <3 hehe.
I'm glad you like it that much ^-^ I always think that people will just ignore it because it's old now, haha.
There's probably not much in the way of fandom for any of my games x3 It doesn't help that I tend to avoid social media because I find it too overwhelming >.< Because many devs are quite active on different social media platforms and are able to actively advertise and promote their projects, whereas I can't do that. So the only way anyone ever even finds out about my games is if they happen to just come across them on itch or if someone else recommends them somewhere I guess.
So yeah, I think the biggest problem is just that not many people actually know my games exist, haha.
It would be super cool if more people knew about this and my other games :3 And even cooler if there was more fan art :D I think my heart would explode with joy if I got fan art more often x3
I guess it must be a big help for visibility if you're able to promote your stuff on tiktok or if others talk about it on there with how popular it is! I don't even have a tiktok account >.< haha.
SPOILERS
You can meet that same character who harassed you in this game in one of my other projects (Apartment No.9 :D) and the character is also referenced but not actually seen/heard in Limbo Line too. The character is called The Architech (or Archie if you prefer something cuter x3) but they're currently hibernating. I plan to include more stuff related to them sometime in some of my other games though!
Anathema is technically you, the player :3 It's just what Archie calls you, kind of like a pet name, hehe.
Archie basically likes to stalk players through my different games x3 Even when Archie isn't physcially there speaking to you, Archie is always watching >.<
It will probably be quite a long time before I start working on the remake of this game because I need to finish some of my other long-term projects first. Once I've completed Clarity in Qualia, Darling Duality, and Bitter/Sweet, I might try to work on the remake then :3 But yeah, it's probably not gonna be for at least a couple of years >.< And when I do get started on it, it'll take me a while to finish since I will have to pretty much remake it from scratch as I can't use the code from Tyranobuilder in Naninovel x3
Yeah, the voice actors really poured their souls into their performances and the game wouldn't be the same without them all! :3 Cutting up and implementing all the voice lines took soooo long xD
Aww, well, thank you so much :3 It makes me super happy to know you like the game so much!
You're kind of correct because it's the same voice actor :P Just 2 different characters.
I'm always looking to work with different people on different projects, so it would be an honour to have an opportunity to work together with you on something at some point :D If it's a long-term project though, I couldn't possibly expect you to do a bunch of work for free >.< That wouldn't be fair to you!
When it comes to game jams and shorter projects, I tend to team up with people and we're all just working together for free just to try and make something cool together :3 But with long-term stuff, I have to try my best to pay people something, even if it's not much x3
I'll add you on Discord anyhow :3 Just know that I don't have notifications or anything on there, so I don't always know when I've got messages, and I tend to be quite slow to reply a lot of the time cos I get so easily overwhelmed >.< (edit: I tried to add you, but it failed x3 You're welcome to try adding me instead though if you want to :3 My name on there is just: melancholymarionette but I don't know what has happened to the numbers you used to get at the end of your name >.< )
Thank you again! :3 Hope you're having a good week so far :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH !! TvT i would like to help you remake this game (SR) i will volunteer to be the CG Artist and i don't really need payment or whatsoever lol i just do this for fun and you really inspired me TwT and i think Archie is mysterious yet thrilling lol xD and i would like to make a fanart of Archie and Player (Anathema) in the future if they have a game and character sprites!
And omg i didn't think that you would accept my silly volunteer and i'm really so HAPPY RIGHT NOWWW
Ohhh! it's okay i add you on discord! :3
And if you want me to draw some characters so far please just me their character spirtes and what expression or emotions they are feeling and the background :3 !
You don't need to thank me x3 I love working with different people :3 Working with others is one of the coolest things about making games cos you get to make something together :D
In all honesty though, it's probably not going to be for a few years at least before I can even start on remaking SR >.< I've got to finish everything I've already started first, and I know it's gonna take a long, long time.
I need to finish CiQ first, but after that, I've got to finish Darling Duality as well, and that's a pretty big project, so it's gonna take me over a year I reckon x3
I had hoped at one point to show a sprite of Archie in a game in the future, but I don't know if that's going to possible anymore >.< It's more likely I will be replacing Archie with a character that is related to them or something x3 but we shall see I guess!
Today i finished reading this VN, and it was wonderful! Even in the rough edges i feel like i can see the main ideas that they want to convey. My favorite route was the detective one as well, although my love for bad ends makes me fancy the student route as well xD! I played it from Windows 11, and everything went well (thought that information may be useful)
Playing a novel with these graphics(background and sprites) felt really nostalgic, i don't usually dwell in those feelings that much, but it was refreshing, and the CG's reminded me of Higurashi they were endearing! There were parts when the 4th wall breaking really got to me (usually when MC is doubting her reality, i was about to think that the ??? route wasn't the end and there was another route even if it wasn't listed here LOL)
Overall as a lover of yandere characters, i really like this novel :D! It's always nice to see more takes on this trope, it makes sense that someone develop this type of character in such dires escenearios. It would make sense that a character develops a extreme personality, grim situations bring harrowing consequences. Kudos to everyone that worked in this project, the effort and results are amazing and that is visible to me.
SPOILER
Shiro and MC (the original ones), were pretty nice! Him accompannying you to the end in the anhilation route, accepting your dream world or protecting you at the cost of his life in the true end, it's a nice way to show his devotion even if he was subject to give up on hope for a long time. Other moment i really like is when he tries to help MC to manage her anger, so that she doesn't loose herself (even if it feels like vindication is the correct thing, it makes sense that MC would put the wellbeing of others above herself, since that's pretty much what the good endings of the other routes tell you)
Coming to think about it, most of the route good ends include options that encourages ideas like: "if you fail try again, trust Kuro, think that you have the power to overcome". Maybe it's intentional or not, but i can see some foreshadowing to the ??? route, probably i would be able to find more connections when i re-read it again :D. Speaking about that, it's kinda nice to see how the different Kuro's are handling the different simulations, i remember thinking that Mage route Kuro, had double personality out of nowhere, but in perspective if he was able to remember the many iterations of MC, then i see how that Kuro ended up coping in that way with his situation.
I also remember seeing the opening trying really hard to match all characters to one of the sprites of Kuro/Shiro and MC, but i ended up not being able to do so for the last one (did someone had a "x" clip on their hair?) then again it makes sense that we do not see all the iterations of Anathema lol and Kuro xD.
In the end although we didn't spend that much time with the original goods, i feel like we got to know them in the different routes played before. So i didn't feel detached from them (but i guess they feel a bit like skin walkers if i see them like that xD)
Now me, inserting hard in MC(don't kill me Kuro!): I usually feel some sort of Ego death on daily basis, not like "is anything real or not" kind and crisis of identity, but more like my sense of self just disolves? or sometimes i can see me from a distance (de-personalization) it's kinda weird to describe tbh, so this MC felt really reassuring to me, in her descriptions of oblivion or when he gattered herself together to make a comeback, it's kinda inspiring in some sense!
I'm a bit confused about the voice calling us Anathema, but seeing other comments, i see that is somewhat of a ongoing plot for your games! From what i can gather it seems like this entity will follow the player that it's interested on having fun in other fictional stories :P. Well i guess now i have a yandere following me through games although you tried to save me Dx
Firstly, I have to say that I’m loving your profile pic on here x3 ducks are the best!!! I swear I would be a happier person if I had some pet ducks, haha.
But anyways, thanks so much for playing this and taking the time to leave such a lovely comment too ^-^
That’s really interesting to know that it worked on Windows 11 :o That means it’s not specifically a Windows version problem that has prevented some folks from playing then >.< I dunno for the life of me why it won’t work for some people and is totally fine for others though :( Games made with Tyrano just seem to be strange like that >.<
So glad you ended up enjoying it :3 It feels so long ago now since I started and finished it, haha. Back then, I had pretty much consumed all the yandere content that was available to me at the time and decided I wanted to try and make my own x3 Fast forward to the present and there’s been an explosion of yandere stuff, especially in indie games! Now I’m spoiled for choice and have a huge backlog of yandere games to play xD I can’t believe how much has changed in that time, haha.
SPOILERS
I’m so glad you gave the whole game a chance cos I remember waaay back when I first released it, someone played the student route and gave up cos they said Kuro wasn’t a yandere, just a psycho, and that really hurt because if that person had kept playing, they would have learned so much more about the character and why the different iterations are the way they are >.< They even had a go at me saying I was wrong to tag the game with the yandere tag T_T
It just really stung because the whole point of this game was to show both the crazy and the loving side of a yandere character in different shades since I had come across many yanderes in games as a player where it was all crazy/psycho behaviour and seemingly no actual love or reason for behaving that way >.< For me to enjoy a yandere, I need there to be a reason for the creepy/crazy side of the behaviour, so I made it my mission and worked backwards on the story, starting with the hidden route stuff, and trying to show the consequences of it in the other routes.
So yeah, it sucked that that person didn’t give it enough of a chance to see that Kuro isn’t just a psycho >.<
Yeeeah, the voice is a character called The Architect (or Archie x3) and pops up in a few other places (next biggest appearance is in Apartment No.9), but they’re kinda on hiatus now, haha. It’s okay though cos they have a relation who will be making an appearance at some point x3
Thank you again for playing and I hope 2024 is going great for you so far! <3
Ah, that’s so awesome that you managed to finish it in the end :D
Hmm, I’m not sure how to even rank him tbh x3 I guess he’d probably score lower than all the Kuros, haha. But yeah, I don’t really know how to give him a score like I did the others.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it and happy you managed to make it to the true end ^-^ Thanks so much again for playing it and for the awesome fan art <3
it's no big deal lol i usually love drawing fanarts of characters i obsess with lol i thought he was more dangerous than all the kuro's XD i got attached to this game actually anyways have a good day!
I actually enjoyed the game i'm in the brink of finishing the game and also the loop when i needed to kill kuro stopped and when i was able to finish it says "game over" since i think i needed to see the bad endings cgs and actually i made a fan art of shiro and mc and farro and mc! i love this game to be completely honest this is the best game i ever played everything and everything of this is really good i think i'm obessesed with shiro now lol by the way here's the fan art
I’m glad you’ve been enjoying it :3 And omg your fan art is so cute!! ^-^ Both of them look so adorable :D Thank you so much for showing me those! They’re amazing <3 I especially love how poor Farro is like a scared little kitty cat, hehe.
That really means a lot! I’m so happy you had fun with the game :3 I hope you’re able to see all the endings if you want to!
This was the first ever game that I made, so it’s a little bit rough x3 I hope to remake it someday with extra content now that I have learned a lot more about game dev :D
Thank you again for playing this one, for sending such cool fan art, and for all your kind words <3 I hope you get to have a fantastic February ^-^
omg your literally like a therapist your words get through me as though finishing the game i think it will be impossible since my sister is gonna sell my laptop and she wouldn't let me go near it T^T
i will really have a hard time finishing it but i think i come back for this actually ><
and i really think it would be cool you can remake the game someday i really love this game but please don't push yourself too hard T_T
and i enjoyed it especially the detective route but i really have to say this it's too much gory BUT but i really LOVE IT OMG ^^
anyways just a little feedback😔 when i leave the game my saves are all gone but nevertheless this game is really enjoyable i didn't even sleep just to get all the bad cgs and ending LMAO
That sucks that your sister is going to sell your laptop :( If you have a good enough phone, there is a thing you can get called Winlator that can manage to run some of the Windows versions of games here on itch.io, but usually only smaller games. I haven’t used it myself, but I know someone who has managed to play a few of my games using Winlator since they don’t have access to a computer.
Hehe, the detective route actually ended up being my favourite route to write, so I’m glad you had fun with that one :D Sometimes I forget how gory some of the moments in this game can be xD because most of my games aren’t tooooo gory, haha.
That’s so weird about your saves disappearing when you leave the game :o I have no idea what would cause that >.< I didn’t have any issues with the saves when I tested it on my computer years ago, but I know the engine I made the game in was a bit dodgy. Some people can’t even open the game on their computers and I have no idea why :( It’s one of the big reasons I switched to using a different software to make games, because Tyranobuilder seemed to have too many weird bugs for different people even though everything worked fine for me. Hopefully, if I can eventually remake the game in a different engine, it will solve all those strange problems :3
Thanks again for all your kind words ^-^ I hope you get to have a good week ahead!
i can't finish this game i'm stuck in a loop in the ??? route i kept killing kuro... i think i'm going insane i might not be able to finish it is there a way to stop the loop i cried now that i know kuro had suffered so many times i really feel sorry for him what should i do..? i just finished all the bad cgs and the good cgs it took me hours to finish this when i finally reached the ??? route i'm so super stuck in a loop i'm going insane really..
Sorry about that >.< This was my first-ever game that I made, so it's hard to remember all the details, but I think this part will loop forever if you don't click on the hidden object!
There should be an image of a knife on the screen somewhere. It's an intentionally sneaky hidden choice x3
You have to click on the knife instead of killing Kuro to break the loop and continue the story :3
I still come back to this game every while. I haven't been able to 100% it yet, but one day... anyways, feel free to take as long to reply as you need. ;_;)b
It’s definitely taken me a while to reply, and I’m still gonna apologise for that even though you said to take as long as I need, so yeah, I’m sorry about that x3
I pretty much just got overwhelmed and too stressed in the buildup to Christmas with family meetings and other stuff, and I kind of went into shut down mode like an overloaded computer and just crashed xD It’s taken all this time to FINALLY start feeling like I can face doing things again >.<
But damn, that's amazing that you'd want to keep coming back to it! I have a few games that I started a loooong time ago and still haven't managed to finish yet even though I want to... like Mass Effect Andromeda, haha.
I hope you do get to 100% it one day though :D And I hope that 2024 has started out amazingly for you :3
hi hi sorry im not sure if you'll answer but might as well try um I can't open any version and I don't think its my laptop because its new but I don't know :(
Sorry my answer is pretty slow >.< I've been quite overwhelmed with everything atm so I'm really behind on replying to stuff :(
Unfortunately, I don't know if I'm going to be of much help T_T It might actually be because your laptop is new that the game isn't working x3 I can't say for sure. It's just the game was made quite a while ago in an old engine that I don't use anymore >.< It still opens and plays on my current PC, but my PC is pretty old xD
I know some people had trouble opening games made with the Tyranobuilder engine because it just opened a weird box that said nodekit or json or something >.< and no one could ever figure out why it worked fine for some people and not others. Some devs posted about it on the engine's forums hoping that the software devs would be able to help, but the only answer we got was that it does that sometimes... >.< sooo yeah, not very helpful x3 It's one of the reasons I stopped using the engine, haha.
But yeah, if double-clicking the .exe file doesn't work, then I don't really know what might make it work >.<
Sorry about that and I hope you get to have happy holidays! :3
Is there a hint somewhere for the password to the ??? part in the extras? I've been dying to know what's on the page after finishing the game, but can't figure it out.
Honestly, it’s been so long since I made this game that I can’t remember if there’s a hint anywhere x3 But I can give you one :3 It’s basically the name that the entity refers to you by!
If you didn’t catch it though, I’ll write it further down in this comment! Thanks so much for playing btw <3
Yeah, unfortunately, the page doesn't allow me to accept different ways of typing it >.< haha. Otherwise, I would have put lowercase and other combos too x3
Sorry my reply is so slow >.< I’ve just been mega-focused on this year’s spooktober VN jam! Hoping to release the project later today :3
Hmm, tbh, it’s so long since I made it that I couldn’t say for sure xD Especially since I don’t know what’s allowed and what isn’t on different streaming platforms >.<
It doesn’t have any sexual content in it, I know that much! But there is some gory/bloody imagery! I’m glad you like it anyhow :3
Hi! I've just started playing Solipsis with the Princess route, and I'm super curious about who the voice actors are since they're really good! I like how you can choose between flavors of Yandere too.
Hey hey! Glad you're enjoying the voice acting :3 The game wouldn't be the same without all the amazing people who helped bring the characters to life with their voices :D
I might be wrong here, but as far as I remember, I included a credits text document with all the download folders, so there should be a file in there somewhere that's just called 'Credits.txt' and inside that there are the full game credits with links to social media and stuff for all the voice actors :3 (well, for those who wanted links including anyhow - not everyone wanted to have links in there.)
I hope you end up enjoying the game! Thanks for checking it out ^-^

I love love love the game sooo much, more than I realise. I took me forever to play this game but I enjoyed it thoroughly.
MAJOR SPOILERS LIKE THIS WOULD RUIN THE WHOLE GAME EXPERINCE IF U READ THIS. WARNING WARNING.
Finally putting my art gcse into use.
Lololol it's messy but I like it. Idk I felt so bad for dollmaker Kuro and clone 339. The world was against them, and they went up against the world, they gave their lives for love. The love of shiro and Mc.
I just find it so sad because they only had such short moments of happiness in hell. They've only know pain and suffering, waking up in a war....I wished they had a proper happy ending, but ngl I understand why they didn't have a happy ending.
Idk I just like dollmaker Kuro out of everyone, because he genuinely cares about Mc from the bottom of his heart, and in a world full of darkness his clinging onto what little hope there is... warmed my heart.
Nahhh and when I found out that Bad end 6 was actually a bad end cause although they're free, theyr were going to be eaten/destroyed by monsters. NOOOOOOO
So I drew this cause in another lifeee, they would be aliveeee. Any ways my drawing is the canon Cg for good ending 3, where my babies are alive
Also the game's theme song is really really good.
I wish you the best and stay safe during these crazy times
I’m glad you decided to check it out & that you had fun with it ^-^ Thanks so much for playing! And also thanks for sharing that awesome art!! It’s beautiful <3
I guess I should also say...
SPOILERS below x3
Tbh, I also felt really bad for them xD And at the same time, I also feel bad for players that I didn’t give them an option of a happier ending x3 It makes me feel kinda evil, haha.
Then again, it was supposed to be a pretty bleak story of despair, sooooo *insert evil laughter here* :P
But yeah, to me, that particular pairing was my OG couple, even if they weren’t technically the OGs, haha.
I’m happy you ended up liking dollmaker Kuro the best because he was also my favourite Kuro :D I’m not usually into characters who look or act more childlike, but the more I wrote for him, the more heart kinda just bled for the poor fella because he’s so innocent and his love is so pure, bless him!
Your drawing is so sweet & gorgeous! Absolutely love it ^-^
Glad you like the theme song too! I was rewatching Spirited Away the other day & it suddenly hit me how similar SR’s opening instrumental part is to Haku’s theme x3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdSHC4l0qAk
I only wrote the lyrics & performed the female vocals on that, so it wasn’t my fault, haha. My friend wrote the music itself & did male vocals. And now I am wondering if it is a coincidence or if he somehow had Spirited Away’s soundtrack in his head influencing him subconsciously xD
Thank you so much for taking the time to type up such a lovely comment & for playing the game anyhow! I wish the best to you too & hope you are also able to stay safe + well :3
Hello TvT do you still have all the route sprites of kuro and shiro? I wanted to make a video of them and also the mc if you still have can you send it to me? :D
Hmm, I actually don’t know x3 I really hope so somewhere!! But because all my SR project files were on an ancient USB, I can’t remember if I backed them up to a hard drive, haha. I must’ve done, but I haven’t finished sorting out a lot of my files since getting my new PC >.<
Even if I can find them though, I’d have to put them on backgrounds or something to send because even though they were made in the generator I purchased, the artist still stated in their terms of use that any characters you make in the generator must not be posted anywhere on their own as PNGs/JPEGs, etc. >.< They have to be in a game, in a video, on a web page sorta thing, unfortunately :(
I’m guessing it wouldn’t be very helpful to send them with backgrounds though >.<
it's okay if it was sent it a background TvT i just use a background remover is that all right? :^
Yeah, that’s fine :3 I mean, I doubt the artist would ever even know about it if I did just send the sprites without a background, but it’s just one of those things where I wouldn’t be able to bring myself to do it cos it would be morally wrong after agreeing to the terms of use x3
It might take me a little while to actually locate the files cos I’ve got a lot of irl stuff to catch up on this month that I’ve been neglecting >.< but as soon as I have them, I’ll send them your way :3
Haii !! :3 i redraw farro's and mcs fanart! https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSYHtSCHQ/
That’s so cool :D I was able to watch it through the link you posted, but I don’t have an account on tiktok, so I can’t like it on there T_T
Im kinda confused this is the GxB wherein Kuro is male? im so sorry to ask I dont mean to offend, but am I the one in the teaser pictures or is it kuro? the character looks like a girl or he is just long haired?
is it the mage route or detective route? i'm pretty sure on the mage route kuro's hair is long
Yup, Kuro is male :3 And no worries at all! I know the sprites are a little odd in this, haha. I like androgynous-looking characters anyhow, but because this was my first-ever game, I didn’t have much choice but to use what I could find >.<
Basically, I couldn’t find a single sprite set from any artist that contained enough sprites to cover all the different worlds I hoped to portray in the project (my own dumb fault for trying to make such a long story for my first game >.<), but I did come across a sprite generator with a looooot of customisation options, enough to cover what I needed. I pretty much had no choice but to use it, haha.
I made every character sprite using the generator. It was cool because it had a wide range of hair pieces to combine to create different hairstyles, and also a decent number of clothing options, but it was lacking in the style of the eyes + the body models >.<
All the ones at the top of the page where it says “Choose your heroine. Choose your fate…” Then some pictures of heads with the captions of: “The Student, The Mage, The Princess, The Detective, The Gamer, and ???” are headshots of the heroine/MC/protagonist.
All the headshots below where it says “Your guardian spirit, Kuro, takes many forms…” are headshots of the different versions of Kuro from the different world routes in the same order as the headshots for MC are listed :3
So blue-haired Kuro = student route Kuro, green = mage route, yellow = clan princess route, magenta = detective route, purple = gamer route, and ??? = the hidden route.
Despite the fairly feminine appearance of Kuro, the voice acting actually matches the sprites really well :3
But yeah, Kuro is definitely a guy, but he does have long hair in a couple of the world routes, haha. Longest hair = mage route Kuro cos it’s down past his butt! x3
The most masculine-looking one is actually in the hidden route, haha.
I do hope to remake this someday since it was my first game and I have a lot more knowledge + use a different engine now, but it’s not a priority. Just something that would be really nice to eventually do when I’ve finished some of the projects I’ve currently got on the go.
Thanks for your interest in the game :3
Oh my goodness. I seriously needed to leave a comment after finally getting every ending. That was...beautiful. Absolutely wonderful!! I can't stop thinking about everything. I had a blast playing! That last part of the true ending made me sequel. I LOVE when games do that kinda thing. Such a fun way to freak someone out!! There was a lot of fun twists too. I may not totally understand what happened here 100%, but I had a damn fun time. Leaving with a ton of answers yet still getting some more questions is all part of the fun sometimes! You and everyone that took part in this game made something wonderful! Can't wait to play more of what you've done and check out everyone else's work!
<3 <3 <3 Thanks so much for checking it out & leaving such a kind comment ^-^ With this being my first-ever project and it looking a little dated now, I always imagine if anyone comes across it, they probably pass it up x3 So yeah, it means a lot that you gave it a chance and stuck with it :D
Glad you liked the freaky stuff too, haha. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm a sucker for that sort of thing, hehe.
If you do end up checking out more of my stuff, I hope you end up enjoying it just as much (or even more! x3)
Thanks again :3
i just played the game again !! just a question what do you think is shiro's mbti?? :3
Sorry I’m so slow >.< I’m suuuuuper behind on all my replies atm, and my PC died towards the end of April, so that hasn’t helped, haha. Now I’m working on something for otome jam, so I’m absorbed in that, but because I still don’t have a new PC up and running properly, I’m trying to do everything atm on the family potato laptop which is awful xD
I’m actually not sure what Shiro’s mbti would be! I’d have to go back through all the types and read up on everything again cos I don’t remember most of the info off of the top of my head x3
I know when I did mine yearsago, it said I was INFP-T, haha.
If I had to guess off the top of my head without researching more, I would guess Shiro would possibly be INFJ or ISFJ, but I couldn’t say for sure >.<
Another one !!
i cannot resist the urge to make another fan art of this game soo...xD
they look so lovely here full of love and affection wahhh TvT idk why i am so attached to this game actually i think it made me very comfortable when i played this game and i was so desperate to get to the ??? route LMAO thank you for making this beautiful game i am so shocked that you made this years ago.
And the amount of effort you made for this game is just it, i never seen any visual novel that had many effort's sometimes i just wonder why they aren't any fandom of this when you created this beautifully and the words got me dwelling lol
I cannot be much more sad that it isn't popular in tiktok it'd be nice if many many thousands of people know about this game and many fan arts of this
and if you recreate in this game in the future i hope it will be much more popular amongside thousands of people i mean this game has many players who played this before but it was before i actually got a glimpse of the old kuro design and it was great but i prefer kuro's style now i think that artstyle is 2000's anime artstyle if i am correct
! SPOILERS !
this game is so unique but we still don't know much about that guy on the end who kicked me out of the game (LOL) i was so scared that time and i was like what...?
And i wonder who is the guy and girl who speaks on the first route on ??? and who is Anathema exactly
is that guy some sort of uhm a guardian angel or something? or he is just watching our journey for fun or could he be the one behind this all?
i heard him say after i finished the game he said "No one can't love you like i do"
maybe perhaps he might be the real lover of Anathema? this is such a mystery that's why i love this game anyways just a question when will you recreate this game?
I give kudos to the voice actors and to you for you're all dedication of this game and the amount of time it must have taken is crazy...
anyways i give this game a 5 star i love this game sooo much i will always be back to play this >w< !!
And is that guy from the gamer route he sounds like it very much and he also called the player "Anathema" once so if my theory is correct he might be it
Actually are you still indeed of a CG Artist? you can hire me for free if you want >w< !! i want to support you i saw on your patreon bio that you're indeed of an Artist so maybe you can hire me! if you want anyways please if you made up you're mind please add me on my dc account it's rjifjriojrgitigtig#4901 it would be my pleasure to work with you! <3!
Oooo :o That one is so cool too! :D They do look so passionate and in love <3 hehe.
I'm glad you like it that much ^-^ I always think that people will just ignore it because it's old now, haha.
There's probably not much in the way of fandom for any of my games x3 It doesn't help that I tend to avoid social media because I find it too overwhelming >.< Because many devs are quite active on different social media platforms and are able to actively advertise and promote their projects, whereas I can't do that. So the only way anyone ever even finds out about my games is if they happen to just come across them on itch or if someone else recommends them somewhere I guess.
So yeah, I think the biggest problem is just that not many people actually know my games exist, haha.
It would be super cool if more people knew about this and my other games :3 And even cooler if there was more fan art :D I think my heart would explode with joy if I got fan art more often x3
I guess it must be a big help for visibility if you're able to promote your stuff on tiktok or if others talk about it on there with how popular it is! I don't even have a tiktok account >.< haha.
SPOILERS
You can meet that same character who harassed you in this game in one of my other projects (Apartment No.9 :D) and the character is also referenced but not actually seen/heard in Limbo Line too. The character is called The Architech (or Archie if you prefer something cuter x3) but they're currently hibernating. I plan to include more stuff related to them sometime in some of my other games though!
Anathema is technically you, the player :3 It's just what Archie calls you, kind of like a pet name, hehe.
Archie basically likes to stalk players through my different games x3 Even when Archie isn't physcially there speaking to you, Archie is always watching >.<
It will probably be quite a long time before I start working on the remake of this game because I need to finish some of my other long-term projects first. Once I've completed Clarity in Qualia, Darling Duality, and Bitter/Sweet, I might try to work on the remake then :3 But yeah, it's probably not gonna be for at least a couple of years >.< And when I do get started on it, it'll take me a while to finish since I will have to pretty much remake it from scratch as I can't use the code from Tyranobuilder in Naninovel x3
Yeah, the voice actors really poured their souls into their performances and the game wouldn't be the same without them all! :3 Cutting up and implementing all the voice lines took soooo long xD
Aww, well, thank you so much :3 It makes me super happy to know you like the game so much!
You're kind of correct because it's the same voice actor :P Just 2 different characters.
I'm always looking to work with different people on different projects, so it would be an honour to have an opportunity to work together with you on something at some point :D If it's a long-term project though, I couldn't possibly expect you to do a bunch of work for free >.< That wouldn't be fair to you!
When it comes to game jams and shorter projects, I tend to team up with people and we're all just working together for free just to try and make something cool together :3 But with long-term stuff, I have to try my best to pay people something, even if it's not much x3
I'll add you on Discord anyhow :3 Just know that I don't have notifications or anything on there, so I don't always know when I've got messages, and I tend to be quite slow to reply a lot of the time cos I get so easily overwhelmed >.< (edit: I tried to add you, but it failed x3 You're welcome to try adding me instead though if you want to :3 My name on there is just: melancholymarionette but I don't know what has happened to the numbers you used to get at the end of your name >.< )
Thank you again! :3 Hope you're having a good week so far :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH !! TvT i would like to help you remake this game (SR) i will volunteer to be the CG Artist and i don't really need payment or whatsoever lol i just do this for fun and you really inspired me TwT and i think Archie is mysterious yet thrilling lol xD and i would like to make a fanart of Archie and Player (Anathema) in the future if they have a game and character sprites!
And omg i didn't think that you would accept my silly volunteer and i'm really so HAPPY RIGHT NOWWW
Ohhh! it's okay i add you on discord! :3
And if you want me to draw some characters so far please just me their character spirtes and what expression or emotions they are feeling and the background :3 !
THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHH😊😊😊💗💗💗
You don't need to thank me x3 I love working with different people :3 Working with others is one of the coolest things about making games cos you get to make something together :D
In all honesty though, it's probably not going to be for a few years at least before I can even start on remaking SR >.< I've got to finish everything I've already started first, and I know it's gonna take a long, long time.
I need to finish CiQ first, but after that, I've got to finish Darling Duality as well, and that's a pretty big project, so it's gonna take me over a year I reckon x3
I had hoped at one point to show a sprite of Archie in a game in the future, but I don't know if that's going to possible anymore >.< It's more likely I will be replacing Archie with a character that is related to them or something x3 but we shall see I guess!
I hope you are having a good weekend so far :3
Today i finished reading this VN, and it was wonderful! Even in the rough edges i feel like i can see the main ideas that they want to convey. My favorite route was the detective one as well, although my love for bad ends makes me fancy the student route as well xD! I played it from Windows 11, and everything went well (thought that information may be useful)
Playing a novel with these graphics(background and sprites) felt really nostalgic, i don't usually dwell in those feelings that much, but it was refreshing, and the CG's reminded me of Higurashi they were endearing! There were parts when the 4th wall breaking really got to me (usually when MC is doubting her reality, i was about to think that the ??? route wasn't the end and there was another route even if it wasn't listed here LOL)
Overall as a lover of yandere characters, i really like this novel :D! It's always nice to see more takes on this trope, it makes sense that someone develop this type of character in such dires escenearios. It would make sense that a character develops a extreme personality, grim situations bring harrowing consequences. Kudos to everyone that worked in this project, the effort and results are amazing and that is visible to me.
SPOILER
Shiro and MC (the original ones), were pretty nice! Him accompannying you to the end in the anhilation route, accepting your dream world or protecting you at the cost of his life in the true end, it's a nice way to show his devotion even if he was subject to give up on hope for a long time. Other moment i really like is when he tries to help MC to manage her anger, so that she doesn't loose herself (even if it feels like vindication is the correct thing, it makes sense that MC would put the wellbeing of others above herself, since that's pretty much what the good endings of the other routes tell you)
Coming to think about it, most of the route good ends include options that encourages ideas like: "if you fail try again, trust Kuro, think that you have the power to overcome". Maybe it's intentional or not, but i can see some foreshadowing to the ??? route, probably i would be able to find more connections when i re-read it again :D. Speaking about that, it's kinda nice to see how the different Kuro's are handling the different simulations, i remember thinking that Mage route Kuro, had double personality out of nowhere, but in perspective if he was able to remember the many iterations of MC, then i see how that Kuro ended up coping in that way with his situation.
I also remember seeing the opening trying really hard to match all characters to one of the sprites of Kuro/Shiro and MC, but i ended up not being able to do so for the last one (did someone had a "x" clip on their hair?) then again it makes sense that we do not see all the iterations of Anathema lol and Kuro xD.
In the end although we didn't spend that much time with the original goods, i feel like we got to know them in the different routes played before. So i didn't feel detached from them (but i guess they feel a bit like skin walkers if i see them like that xD)
Now me, inserting hard in MC(don't kill me Kuro!): I usually feel some sort of Ego death on daily basis, not like "is anything real or not" kind and crisis of identity, but more like my sense of self just disolves? or sometimes i can see me from a distance (de-personalization) it's kinda weird to describe tbh, so this MC felt really reassuring to me, in her descriptions of oblivion or when he gattered herself together to make a comeback, it's kinda inspiring in some sense!
I'm a bit confused about the voice calling us Anathema, but seeing other comments, i see that is somewhat of a ongoing plot for your games! From what i can gather it seems like this entity will follow the player that it's interested on having fun in other fictional stories :P. Well i guess now i have a yandere following me through games although you tried to save me Dx
Totono, Aoi dark route(?) xDFirstly, I have to say that I’m loving your profile pic on here x3 ducks are the best!!! I swear I would be a happier person if I had some pet ducks, haha.
But anyways, thanks so much for playing this and taking the time to leave such a lovely comment too ^-^
That’s really interesting to know that it worked on Windows 11 :o That means it’s not specifically a Windows version problem that has prevented some folks from playing then >.< I dunno for the life of me why it won’t work for some people and is totally fine for others though :( Games made with Tyrano just seem to be strange like that >.<
So glad you ended up enjoying it :3 It feels so long ago now since I started and finished it, haha. Back then, I had pretty much consumed all the yandere content that was available to me at the time and decided I wanted to try and make my own x3 Fast forward to the present and there’s been an explosion of yandere stuff, especially in indie games! Now I’m spoiled for choice and have a huge backlog of yandere games to play xD I can’t believe how much has changed in that time, haha.
SPOILERS
I’m so glad you gave the whole game a chance cos I remember waaay back when I first released it, someone played the student route and gave up cos they said Kuro wasn’t a yandere, just a psycho, and that really hurt because if that person had kept playing, they would have learned so much more about the character and why the different iterations are the way they are >.< They even had a go at me saying I was wrong to tag the game with the yandere tag T_T
It just really stung because the whole point of this game was to show both the crazy and the loving side of a yandere character in different shades since I had come across many yanderes in games as a player where it was all crazy/psycho behaviour and seemingly no actual love or reason for behaving that way >.< For me to enjoy a yandere, I need there to be a reason for the creepy/crazy side of the behaviour, so I made it my mission and worked backwards on the story, starting with the hidden route stuff, and trying to show the consequences of it in the other routes.
So yeah, it sucked that that person didn’t give it enough of a chance to see that Kuro isn’t just a psycho >.<
Yeeeah, the voice is a character called The Architect (or Archie x3) and pops up in a few other places (next biggest appearance is in Apartment No.9), but they’re kinda on hiatus now, haha. It’s okay though cos they have a relation who will be making an appearance at some point x3
Thank you again for playing and I hope 2024 is going great for you so far! <3
i finally finished the game! and though just a question
just how high shiro's yandere level (lol)
i really enjoyed it and especially the true end this will be forever in my memory i love it so much !!
Ah, that’s so awesome that you managed to finish it in the end :D
Hmm, I’m not sure how to even rank him tbh x3 I guess he’d probably score lower than all the Kuros, haha. But yeah, I don’t really know how to give him a score like I did the others.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it and happy you managed to make it to the true end ^-^ Thanks so much again for playing it and for the awesome fan art <3
it's no big deal lol i usually love drawing fanarts of characters i
obsesswith lol i thought he was more dangerous than all the kuro's XD i got attached to this game actually anyways have a good day!Well, it’s a really cool thing to do :D
I guess he technically is the most dangerous, haha.
Hope you have a good day too :3
I actually enjoyed the game i'm in the brink of finishing the game and also the loop when i needed to kill kuro stopped and when i was able to finish it says "game over" since i think i needed to see the bad endings cgs and actually i made a fan art of shiro and mc and farro and mc! i love this game to be completely honest this is the best game i ever played everything and everything of this is really good i think i'm obessesed with shiro now lol by the way here's the fan art
I’m glad you’ve been enjoying it :3 And omg your fan art is so cute!! ^-^ Both of them look so adorable :D Thank you so much for showing me those! They’re amazing <3 I especially love how poor Farro is like a scared little kitty cat, hehe.
That really means a lot! I’m so happy you had fun with the game :3 I hope you’re able to see all the endings if you want to!
This was the first ever game that I made, so it’s a little bit rough x3 I hope to remake it someday with extra content now that I have learned a lot more about game dev :D
Thank you again for playing this one, for sending such cool fan art, and for all your kind words <3 I hope you get to have a fantastic February ^-^
omg your literally like a therapist your words get through me as though finishing the game i think it will be impossible since my sister is gonna sell my laptop and she wouldn't let me go near it T^T
i will really have a hard time finishing it but i think i come back for this actually ><
and i really think it would be cool you can remake the game someday i really love this game but please don't push yourself too hard T_T
and i enjoyed it especially the detective route but i really have to say this it's too much gory BUT but i really LOVE IT OMG ^^
anyways just a little feedback😔 when i leave the game my saves are all gone but nevertheless this game is really enjoyable i didn't even sleep just to get all the bad cgs and ending LMAO
i will literally be your biggest fan 😭🙌🙌
That sucks that your sister is going to sell your laptop :( If you have a good enough phone, there is a thing you can get called Winlator that can manage to run some of the Windows versions of games here on itch.io, but usually only smaller games. I haven’t used it myself, but I know someone who has managed to play a few of my games using Winlator since they don’t have access to a computer.
Hehe, the detective route actually ended up being my favourite route to write, so I’m glad you had fun with that one :D Sometimes I forget how gory some of the moments in this game can be xD because most of my games aren’t tooooo gory, haha.
That’s so weird about your saves disappearing when you leave the game :o I have no idea what would cause that >.< I didn’t have any issues with the saves when I tested it on my computer years ago, but I know the engine I made the game in was a bit dodgy. Some people can’t even open the game on their computers and I have no idea why :( It’s one of the big reasons I switched to using a different software to make games, because Tyranobuilder seemed to have too many weird bugs for different people even though everything worked fine for me. Hopefully, if I can eventually remake the game in a different engine, it will solve all those strange problems :3
Thanks again for all your kind words ^-^ I hope you get to have a good week ahead!
i can't finish this game i'm stuck in a loop in the ??? route i kept killing kuro... i think i'm going insane i might not be able to finish it is there a way to stop the loop i cried now that i know kuro had suffered so many times i really feel sorry for him what should i do..? i just finished all the bad cgs and the good cgs it took me hours to finish this when i finally reached the ??? route i'm so super stuck in a loop i'm going insane really..
Sorry about that >.< This was my first-ever game that I made, so it's hard to remember all the details, but I think this part will loop forever if you don't click on the hidden object!
There should be an image of a knife on the screen somewhere. It's an intentionally sneaky hidden choice x3
You have to click on the knife instead of killing Kuro to break the loop and continue the story :3
oh ok i see thanks i didn't notice it!
No worries :3
I don't know if you've seen it already or not, but if you happen to get stuck again, Maetropa wrote a brilliant guide on getting all the endings :D
I still come back to this game every while. I haven't been able to 100% it yet, but one day... anyways, feel free to take as long to reply as you need. ;_;)b
It’s definitely taken me a while to reply, and I’m still gonna apologise for that even though you said to take as long as I need, so yeah, I’m sorry about that x3
I pretty much just got overwhelmed and too stressed in the buildup to Christmas with family meetings and other stuff, and I kind of went into shut down mode like an overloaded computer and just crashed xD It’s taken all this time to FINALLY start feeling like I can face doing things again >.<
But damn, that's amazing that you'd want to keep coming back to it! I have a few games that I started a loooong time ago and still haven't managed to finish yet even though I want to... like Mass Effect Andromeda, haha.
I hope you do get to 100% it one day though :D And I hope that 2024 has started out amazingly for you :3
hi hi sorry im not sure if you'll answer but might as well try um I can't open any version and I don't think its my laptop because its new but I don't know :(
Sorry my answer is pretty slow >.< I've been quite overwhelmed with everything atm so I'm really behind on replying to stuff :(
Unfortunately, I don't know if I'm going to be of much help T_T It might actually be because your laptop is new that the game isn't working x3 I can't say for sure. It's just the game was made quite a while ago in an old engine that I don't use anymore >.< It still opens and plays on my current PC, but my PC is pretty old xD
I know some people had trouble opening games made with the Tyranobuilder engine because it just opened a weird box that said nodekit or json or something >.< and no one could ever figure out why it worked fine for some people and not others. Some devs posted about it on the engine's forums hoping that the software devs would be able to help, but the only answer we got was that it does that sometimes... >.< sooo yeah, not very helpful x3 It's one of the reasons I stopped using the engine, haha.
But yeah, if double-clicking the .exe file doesn't work, then I don't really know what might make it work >.<
Sorry about that and I hope you get to have happy holidays! :3
AWWWW you too HAPPY HOLIDAYS it's fine if it doesn't work, thank you for the reply tho!! HAVE A AWESOME COOL DAY!!!! :D
Is there a hint somewhere for the password to the ??? part in the extras? I've been dying to know what's on the page after finishing the game, but can't figure it out.
Honestly, it’s been so long since I made this game that I can’t remember if there’s a hint anywhere x3 But I can give you one :3 It’s basically the name that the entity refers to you by!
If you didn’t catch it though, I’ll write it further down in this comment! Thanks so much for playing btw <3
SPOILERS BELOW!!!
As far as I can remember, it should be: Anathema
Thank you! I did try that but somehow I never considered capitalizing their name funnily enough.
Yeah, unfortunately, the page doesn't allow me to accept different ways of typing it >.< haha. Otherwise, I would have put lowercase and other combos too x3
i like to move it move it
xD
is the game safe to stream? i love the game alot but it's been a while since i've played it
Sorry my reply is so slow >.< I’ve just been mega-focused on this year’s spooktober VN jam! Hoping to release the project later today :3
Hmm, tbh, it’s so long since I made it that I couldn’t say for sure xD Especially since I don’t know what’s allowed and what isn’t on different streaming platforms >.<
It doesn’t have any sexual content in it, I know that much! But there is some gory/bloody imagery! I’m glad you like it anyhow :3

Let me see where your game are
Crossing path that you dont know
Merging souls that to me owe
Now im going to puppeter this MC `>`
Nice version of the rhyme there :D Hope you have fun puppeteering!! :3
Hi! I've just started playing Solipsis with the Princess route, and I'm super curious about who the voice actors are since they're really good! I like how you can choose between flavors of Yandere too.
Hey hey! Glad you're enjoying the voice acting :3 The game wouldn't be the same without all the amazing people who helped bring the characters to life with their voices :D
I might be wrong here, but as far as I remember, I included a credits text document with all the download folders, so there should be a file in there somewhere that's just called 'Credits.txt' and inside that there are the full game credits with links to social media and stuff for all the voice actors :3 (well, for those who wanted links including anyhow - not everyone wanted to have links in there.)
I hope you end up enjoying the game! Thanks for checking it out ^-^
