Is there a chance you might release or make a playlist of some kind with the game's music? I love the music and would love to listen to it.
AHHHHH I LOVE IT!!!! It's such a cool plot and i can't wait for day 3
I CAN'T WAIT FOR DAY 3!!
Does anybody know how the dominance system works? i cant figure out how to get the fox or wolf carving without damaging trust or relationship
I think that's how it works.. (I'm not exactly sure), but I got fox through being stubborn and lying in my answers. The animal you get depends on how friendly you are with him. (wolf being most distrustful/avoidant)
Amazing art!
I NEED DAY 3 I LOVE JIMM ( ´•ᗨ•`)っ ♡

i love the concept,its so genious and phsycological!! and the graphics,the desing,the art style its just so delicious,omg and the desing of the character is so gorgeous it got me fantasizing!! ❤❤cant wait for chapter three!
Its me again, your game has developed so beautifully. I still love it as much as i did when i payed it for the first time. Day 2 is so lovely and im extremly excited for more days! I have a feeling this story is going to be amazing and i already love whats happening. Keep it up you are the best! Jim is so handsome and he really reminds me of my ex. Keep it up! <3
ahh!! I love it so deeply, the theme's of collars, the wolf, the rabbit, subtle touches, truly gives the feeling of prey being hunted! Makes me curious and desperate to know more, like what would happen if we spoke to the dream wolf? what happens when we get too curious? also kudos to the whole theme of being caged, it makes the player in this specific situation almost feel special type ethereal especially with the snow theme. Like a worthy display but still treated as whole in an odd sense, like an angel who's had their wings tied.
long story short, I enjoyed it! can't wait for more in the future.
i need him... bad. i love this i cannot wait for more!!
I FEAR I NEED MORE!!!! I CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT DAY!!! honesty i love how the story is going so far and i need to know the lore? are we reincarnations? is he plaining on sacrificing us??? was the dog he ref actually us??? what is going on!?!?!? also bunny's are my fav animal!!
First VN to have me genuinely shaken up, Jim is very well written!!
i loved the story so far!!! the art and the soundtrack are beautiful and fitting as well, i can't wait to see how it plays out now <3
Day 2 was so good! I have a few theories for story so far...\(O<O)/. ݁₊ ⟡
