KAYAKOAMAYA'S PROFILE

Name's Kaya! I'm just a fun-loving girl with an interest in music, videogames, and art! For a while now I have been making them myself too!

My 'talents' if one can refer to them as such are Storytelling, Map design, and sprite art. Though I am experimenting with digital art and animation!

For me, making games is mostly a hobby, and everything I make...
While perhaps nothing noteworthy is made from the heart.

If the games and such I make end up giving someone, somewhere some enjoyment then I consider my work worth it~!

Corruption of Laetitia Review

Thank you for the review~! I was indeed going for something a little darker with some lighthearted scenes scattered throughout. So it would never become too much. I am glad I was able to provide something like that which I felt was a little... rare.

For the combat, I'm glad that it was at least adequate~ I can't say I'm a very skilled developer so hearing it was acceptable is praise of itself~

The exploration part, Yeah, I kind of struggled with the lighting to be honest. It's hard for me to think what is "atmospheric" and what is "uncomfortable" considering I know the maps inside out myself, and something is likely off with either my screen or my eyes~ I attempted changing this a few times but... Never to an acceptable level.

As for more art. I actually commissioned an artist after I released the game but they are extremely busy. So it will likely take a while before I can feature it in my game. After taking over three years of work I didn't want to take it down again for another 2~years.

I'm glad the story was to your liking at least! I kind of hoped I could make the several routes stand out more than they did, but in the end I am somewhat satisfied with it and don't know how I could have improved it much.

As for the kissing and groping, I tried to make it come across as just friendly 'over-eager lovers' but, that is hard to nail down without becoming creepy to some people. While I can tell they do it from a place of adoration. That in it's own is obviously no excuse. Still I wanted it in to contrast the main character's 'inexperience' in the area of love. Something which for some reason people don't seem to mind if the MC is male.

I'm glad your experience was a positive one, And I will try to use the feedback where possible. So I won't make the same mistakes (such as the darkness) in future projects!

We do require that things like non-consensual stuff be marked on the gamepage itself. Please add that asap so that people know what they're getting in to before they actually bother downloading the game. Even if it doesn't seem like much to you, others have different experiences and what might not be a big deal to one person might to another. So yes, insisting on a clearer marking as well.

Oh wow, Thank you, I forgot the fact that on the site itself the disclaimer isn't as well presented as the in-game one. Yes, you're right. I was thinking about the game's introductory disclaimer only. Even though it doesn't go much beyond kissing and implications it still deserves to be mentioned. I added it to the warning now!

Corruption of Laetitia Review

Ehehe, The thing is, I made it brighter three times already and it was bright enough for me to begin with, so I just don't know what is 'bright enough' I guess something must be wrong with my monitor~

As for the goals, I... thought they were pretty direct. From the onset it pretty much tells you "I want to kill this guy dead" so I don't know what more I can do in that regard. I'm probably just too out of touch~

Thank you for your review, sorry that it wasn't exactly your thing. I hope you'll find something more enjoyable for your next game~!

The intro message
"Warning: This game may contain scenes or themes that
can be considered disturbing or offensive
to some people. Viewer discretion is advised."

Was something I hoped would be enough, but clearly it wasn't and for that I apologize.

I was taking this from my position as a survivor of sexual violence and assumed that if it was too light to 'trigger' me it would be okay for anyone. Which was wrong to assume.

It also seems I'm just not the best with conveying objectives since at multiple points it's stated the player's goal is revenge on said priest. But I guess the intro makes it seem like he is dead. My bad, I could probably have shown that better with a different animation or such.

Thank you for your insight, It's nice to see what people think, praise or criticism alike. Perhaps next time I'll be able to do better!
