How it feels

A chatty, self-aware visual novel where the narrator awkwardly and humorously breaks the fourth wall to share raw, unfiltered personal thoughts.

What players say

Players call it a short, dream-like visual novel with gorgeous art and music. The story asks you to sacrifice body parts to forest women to win an archfey's heart. Reviews are split on the writing: some find it funny and profound, others say it reads like rambling tumblr-era venting about exes.
