A visual novel short story inspired by the gorgeous pixel art of PC-98 games and a melodramatic story full of betrayal and crescendo. Follow Vassan, Eugenie and Memnon as they flee their home in search for a better tomorrow in this stylish visual novel!
--STORY--
The royal city of Flayes has been under siege for months. The food is running out everywhere but the royal court. High society lives like there's no tomorrow, and for a reason. One night the walls protecting the city break down and Vassan, Eugenie and Memnon are forced to accept reality, their homeland is no more. High society has raised these people extremely selfish, but as they flee Flayes they are forced to change their ways. But is it possible to value kindness and life in a world where individual lives have little value?
--CHARACTERS--
"No, I`m not having fun. Then again, when you`re at war and everyone around you is pretending it`s New Year`s Eve, are you supposed to? I feel its my fate to be alone in party crowds, and in good company only when I`m alone with a book. Or my quill."
"It`s not about the money, it`s about being free. And that`s a lot easier when you have money. Or are a man."
"Yes, life isn`t much more than the lies we tell ourselves. The trick is pick a fun lie and tell it well."

Not nearly as good as their next game, Vengeful Heart (which is one of my favorite things I've played this year), but still a decent first attempt, and you can see how they got from here to there. The story and world and thematic elements and artwork are all pretty good here, but they built on and improved on them all significantly for their next attempt. I extremely highly recommend Vengeful Heart no matter what, and this mostly if you want to see how they got started before that. Still a reasonably enjoyable use of an hour of my day either way though.
The retro style really makes this game work well. The story is simple, but it's an emotionally draining one, and the sparse colors and dark music really work well to help the increasingly dire plot move along. A short story, but certainly nice for $2.
For some reason, the developers removed some of the normal visual novel accessibility options, which is the biggest shortcoming for me. No options for text speed, auto-scrolling, or a text log. I frequently clicked too quickly through the script and accidentally missed some lines--the lack of any way to go back was a little annoying.
But for a story this short, that's all pretty minor. It's a rough gem I hope more players experience.
