birthday week- rant and sketches from the past week!
Since today is my birthday. Saturday, the 13th I'll show you one of my favorite visual novels and some art I drew! I've been pretty busy and haven't had to time to actually play some vn's but what can you do?
heres a cheers on being older, as I can now legally drink here in the US!
So here's me ranting about my favorite visual novels!
heh some proof. ( i'm employed guys, I swear)
Our Life on itch.io and Steam
Our life, Jesus Christ. Nothing compares to ''Our life''. I guess, I feel close to the story as it uses the concept of the "childhood friend" trope, which I was closely related to for a time. Besides Cove (gah i love him), every character feels so real, and I remember buying the DLCs right after. I haven't touched the game again because I've been busy but lordie I reccomend this sweet visual novel for anyone -- and is completed!
havent even finished it.
mc greed sickens me
Actually one of my first visual novels that I purchased.
Saw it trending during 2024 in November. Saw it again around February and finally bought it around March. I don't regret it-- the horror elements and the puzzle solving for the language barrier. Our strange, chaotic yet sweet (most) love interests. As well as the lore in the game when dissecting. I love this game as I got every ending. I hope that the creator of Homicipher makes a new game soon to gawk at.
Each character is so witty and laughable at. I love the creators' other game "Magical Death Pair" as I played it, and unfortunately, I do not speak/read Japanese. Glassical better hide from me.
Mr. Crawling is def a popular fav along with Mr. Scartella.
Mr. Silvair and Mr. Chopped, cute duo.... sorta.
I hear no love for my guys being Mr. Hood and Mr. Machete.
The sound and eerier noises. To the small squeaks of Adami (MC) and Mr. Crawling. I love the action and god, this game is my top favorite.
I remember playing this game around the time I was taking a coding class. Not the same shit but still, this game honestly gives a sense "letting go" and finding new beginnings without meaning too (or maybe it is!). I felt deep connections with each character despite the lack of time given. Each personality and of course, our main man. His accent and his personality as the game continued... I haven't gotten the bad or "normal" ending because, honestly, I was satisfied with what I got.
already talked about this one (link here to read) but... Is so unique with the concept of their yandere. Like, the more you learn about BB (biker guy), the more he isn't the stereotypical yandere, which is fresh. I say fresh because of how the creator uses their character.
Using the ominous vibes and more descriptive wording for BB. How if you focus on him during your route your able to tell what kind of person he is. Or if you focus on Lain, there will be consequences to these actions (found out the hard way)
Gameplay-wise, each choice feels as I'm playing Mystic Messenger as if I unlocked something new. I honestly love the other love interest more for his dick head personality, yet, true to his word, despite that fact.
Also the real world problems of just being a woman. even if its just a glimpse of someones actual life. I feel related in MC in so many ways. The gawking and the weird comments. I pray for MC to have a normal outcome, but knowing some endings to the game... lowkey doubt that. I remember getting the suicide ending, after we get along with Lane yet we have no known relationship with BB. Since BB didn't take care of the guy at the store. God, I remember crying from knowing.
BB doesn't feel overwhelming.
Because his presence is known. (Also the art style is so scrumptious)
Kudos to the creator as I wait patiently for the next update before I start donating my birthday money.I got the game when it still had silly little images for the start screen. glad its getting the recongition it desevres! and more love to come
Oh boy, How to Eat a God on Itch.io
I come from a hispanic household. So the translation to english feels so LOST. IF you understand, the wording can feel off but if you read it in spanish is sounds so... AH my heart.
Anyways, each route from the three interets are so interesting story wise. Focusing on Nulla for this one, I love characters who know what we are. Helping him, and learning more about the world we're stuck in through the puppet's eyes. When he leaves after an incident, his little message for the reader is so heart wrenching as the emotion is there!
The other two, Unuma and Septem. I'm a sucker for red-head characters. I went with Unuma on my first run. God forbid a girl want some action with a god (his route is honestly the sweetest)
With Septem, get ready for lore dump. Because his route lets you really see how the world functions and how your choices can affect the outcome of the actual world.
Heh. A date with death on itch.io and steam
God I love this axotol freak.
I love white haired characters (along with redheaded ones)i'm also for a sucker of this guy's obliviousness. I saw this actually on my reccomended on steam when I was game searching. Saw it and grew fond of it. I love the "choices matter" game as any choice can change the outcome no matter what you put previously. I got one of his good endings, honestly wish I had a skip button for calls but the more I see this man the more I justt "oh yeah it's coming out" joking! or am i...
Casper, god the reaper you are.
I haven't played the DLC but I'mm gonna get it once i finish the base game! I love MC as a character in themselves.
I honestly just say go in this one with a fresh mind.
Its one of my favs for (one of my favorite phrases on reddit)
Ren compression shirt -- 14 Days with You (heh sorry guys!)
Crowe, my beloved, in pjs -- The Kid at the Back (baddie)
ADULT cove before anyone drags me (his tat is a wip) -- Our Life
this pathetic being, sol-- the kid at the back
Grrr this one had me thinking about it at work.
gah cant wait for the next update!!
i love each and every guy. (Xyx is the same voice actor in SeekL!)
gonna cover this one next week but gah! cant wait for the complete game
this little freak... EY IS CALLED FREAK CIRCUS FOR A REASON AHHH im not funny
Anyways, thanks for the many hearts and attention this past year! I’ve been through a lot mentally and left an abusive relationship so showing my art and just general interest has helped me out.
I never expected a lot of people to come and actually like my stuff as I hadn’t picked up the digital style until a bit of a year ago. I still have a long way to go but I’ve seen my progress and I’m happy to show it.
Thank you all. Or anyone who at least views this that you have a good day! Even if it comes from a stranger on the internet :p
