I finally got around to playing through the whole demo, and was not disappointed. You've got cinematic flare, and the game has a unique atmosphere. I think it's visually great in general (and this is coming from someone who usually sees "VX style" and presses the back button). The nice original music is icing on the cake. And of course, I'm loving the characters and narrative. I'm looking forward to the next release to see where you take things.

Some other nice touches I also liked included the character's thoughts on objects or NPCs you examined; that level of detail is not too common in RM games and it gives you a deeper look at what the world looks like through the hero's eyes (in fact, it reminded me of Legend of Dragoon). On a similar note, I liked how even NPCs had names and descriptive "titles" that gave them some extra personality, like in Shadow Hearts.

Of course, I can't say much about gameplay or the battle system since it was pretty bare bones, but it looks like you're on to something good. (BTW, it was really traumatizing to be forced to kill the "Grocery Girl," etc, lol...)

tl;dr
I like your game a lot, please keep up the good work. :3

This looks really nice! When I get some free time, I'll check this out. Subscribed!

Just played the Prologue demo and I must say I'm impressed with this, although the demo did seem to end rather abruptly and although minor, perhaps would've been better if it took you back to the title screen or asked you if you wanted to quit.

A few tileset errors although quite indiscriminate, and I'd probably put it down to using XP tiles in VX.

Reading from your summary, I'm unsure if this game has an antagonist (in the traditional sense), although Konstantin strikes me as the type of character who would fit that role... and whilst the soundtrack isn't original (i.e. not a custom-made OST), the music you have chosen fits in brilliantly with the atmosphere of the game.

Nice! Downloading Now!

I have not yet played the demo (I'm waiting for the revised version), but just from the screenshots and description this looks like it's going to be incredible.

And yes, like the person above me, I don't consider visuals very important, but you do a stellar job at them. Who knew VX could actually look not just tolerable, but good? :o

((By the way, blueperiod, is your avatar from the Watership Down movie? I've never seen it but it looks like it fits the bill from what I've heard of it.))

Ah, it's nice to see my favourite ever VX game is back on track again. I can tell that the updated release will be worth the loooong wait. :)
