Well I guess I can wait because I really want to try it so I will avoid anything that will ruin my experience in this game because I really have high hopes for it. (ゝω・´★)
I’m going to say that yes, you can draw NSFW and use that tag to signal it. However, my only condition so far is that you don’t draw anything pedophilic with him. That’s gross. As long as it doesn’t involve that, draw away!
First off the art is gorgeous! Just utterly beautiful designs for both the characters and the setting, especially when building up horror. Also I like the little instances of animation, it makes the eyes incredibly unsettling. The use of font colours and animations is also really good, it adds a lot of emotion to what's being said and the highlighting of certain words made me very uncomfortable.
I really enjoyed the writing here, it was a lot of fun and full of personality while still building a lot of dread throughout. Our protagonist feels very realistic and relatable, a lot of the things they said were things I'd probably say in that situation. It was very easy to connect and feel bad for everything they went through. I actually winced at how bad the limbs were broken and when describing the feeling of the eyes you painted some very unsettling images that made me feel like I was going a bit mad (eyes crawling inside you is not a mental picture I ever wanted, and that's coming from someone who loves body horror). The world building too is something that I need more of, the little details you give raise so many questions. Magic is an established thing that is known to have side effects and only a few people use it, plus multiple fantasy races live in this world, yet technology has also got to the point of putting camera lenses in people's eyes? I am fully invested in this particular story but I would be open to seeing more stories in this setting to see more of how the world works.
Corvin of course is the highlight. Will fully admit I downloaded this because of the yandere tag (I'm a bit of a sucker for these kind of stories) but I don't think I've ever read a yandere story where the love interest starts out as terrifying and then reveals their nice side. It genuinely caught me off guard, especially because just like the protagonist Corvin feels really genuine and relatable. He wasn't Mr Perfect and Charming straight off the bat; he got frustrated and anxious and genuinely felt like someone trying his best to help in a bad situation, even when he made things worse. After my first playthrough I felt nothing but warmth towards him and honestly forgave the horror he put me through. Then I replayed it to see the dialogue options I missed it reminded me of his line "When you wake, you will forgive me.", and now I'm starting to think I got manipulated. It's been a long time since a character made me feel like that, which is a testament to how well-written he is. Unsure what to expect from him going forward but I am here for it!
I don't think I have enough words to describe how much I love this. I will be eagerly waiting to see what happens next and I'm excited to see any other work you release. This has immediately shot up there as one of my favourite visual novels.
Hi! I finally had the time to play this game and can I just say you did an amazing job! I could tell you put a lot of work into it, and it was really fun to see the bits and pieces you've mentioned working on in the past few weeks get implemented into the game :-D! The Mychael plushie was a lovely surprise, I didn't expect to see him there haha!
I loved the intro sequence during the bus ride, where we get to see MC's inner thoughts and see a bit of their personality. The subtle worldbuilding is a nice touch too (camera lenses in your eyes?? hello???) and once we enter the mountains I was really immersed in the writing with mentions of magic and monsters. MC really was having the worst day of their life, R.I.P.
Corvin definitely feels complex to me; he's quick to react and doesn't try to hold back from expressing himself, which is refreshing in my opinion. I'm wondering if there's a bigger rivalry going on between him and the wolves (a wolfman??? maybe?? there's mentions of a second love interest hehe).
Admittedly I recognize some familiar story beats but! I can't wait to see how you continue the story with your own personal twist! Congratulations on getting it out, I look forward to seeing how the story progresses from here :-D
Aaaa this is such an honor oh my god :D thank you so much for playing, it took ages and I'm so happy my biggest inspiration likes it! I do plan on changing things up in terms of gameplay and story structure, love interest 2 (who I'm designing now) should be introduced on the second day and i want to expand on the town a bit more, which is going to take a ton of work but I think I got this! I'm going to do my best!
Thank you again for playing my game and I am so excited to give out more!
The influence of Mushroom Oasis is incredibly heavy here, but that's definitely not a complaint!
A cozy-feeling yandere game with an inhuman creature in the middle of nowhere who helps you out when you get hurt could never be something I would be tired of! The nod for Mychael with the little plushie is hilarious, and it makes me think that in some twisted way him and Corvin are friends across time and space because they're both pretty similar on multiple levels from the sound design to the shared consideration of the MC's food preferences :D
Still, the way his powers fully manifest was very well drawn out, the way the eyes were shaped and had a few differences was very nice, especially when you had them slightly looming at the bottom of the screen when they needed to, very chilling!
Corvin is pretty off-putting yet charming, definitely with a bit of attitude amongst his understandable surprise at being treated with even a shred of decency.
It's kind of sad that everyone thinks of him as cursed, yet I will admit I wouldn't be super thrilled about feeling my body and especially soul ripping into pieces either just because he was hungry XD
Still, becoming friends with him seems like a nice choice, the fact that he saved our life at all is something I am grateful for, especially with how the game goes into talking about what happened to us falling off that cliff. The fact that we as the MC even got up at all is kind of astounding, but that's the remarkable thing about the human spirit I suppose!
I'm really curious to find out more about the MC, with the stock they put in the blog and think about it before anything else makes me think they don't have a lot of friends aside from Ronald, and no family to speak of, which makes me think that if things go well (or unwell) with Corvin there wouldn't be much of an issue with them being at the mountain for a more sustained period.
The artistry in the backgrounds was wonderfully done, it really gave the home a kind of dungeon-esque quality that I really enjoyed, and the mountain shots were nicely done (Dunno what the MC was talking about with how unsatisfied they were with the pictures of snowy trees, they looked really nice!)
The world also seems pretty unique as there was mentions of cameras in the eyes and portal trains, along with mentions of obviously non-human creatures being all around to the point where there are laws and rules about how to treat humans considering how the magic works in this world.
I cannot wait to see more of the Urban Fantasy you seem to have cooked up, it's very different <3
I also kind of laughed when Corvin and the MC both noticed they didn't have a shadow and both panicked for different reasons, it was very kind of him to give it back so soon after realizing he forgot X)
All in all a very nice Demo and I am very excited to see what will show up in the future, take your time, hydrate not die-drate and I'll be keeping an eye (Ha!) out for this one!
Mushroom Oasis was actually what inspired me to make the game, hence the cameo and food options! I actually never considered having a variety of food choices for the player until I played the game, so I wanted to try it! I have a lot more plans to flesh out the story, Corvin, and that future second love interest (I hope to have him appear in day 2!) and I’m working as hard as I can, so thank you so much for being interested! I appreciate it a lot!
HE'S SO SWEET! What a nice demo! Congrats on releasing it! <3

Friend-shaped eyes! I want to gently hold them, look at them—adorable! round! I don't know why my maternal instincts kicked in, but my god, did they! Hopefully it won't be the death of me!

Well I guess I can wait because I really want to try it so I will avoid anything that will ruin my experience in this game because I really have high hopes for it. (ゝω・´★)
Do you have a character sheet reference for Corvin? He is so hot...
Oh! Also a character sheet for the MC aka Y/N?
Character sheets for both characters will be coming soon!
Very nice game and i do not want to see the bad ending
Thank you! And there is a way to get the good ending so don’t worry!
Another question. Can we make NSFW art of the character? What tags can we use? #ShadowDropNSFW?
I’m going to say that yes, you can draw NSFW and use that tag to signal it. However, my only condition so far is that you don’t draw anything pedophilic with him. That’s gross. As long as it doesn’t involve that, draw away!
