I lack the control of words necessary to describe this work's impact. It feels nice, and a bit peaceful.

GOD. YOUR PROSE. AUGH. I could say a lot of words about how good it is; prattle pathetically trying to grope for the right words ---- but hoooooly shit it makes the writer brain break down. How in the FUCK. DID YOU MAKE SUCH GOOD PROSE. all the little allusions made are so cute and well fleshed out, all the hints are plain yet still unfold in a way that drives surprise in the audience, something something something, you're very good at what you do. ..but no seriously I write too and id very much like to know how. I did not expect to have something of the strength of a Ray Bradbury novel when looking for (lovingly disgusting yuri "rape".

Incredible. I feel so messy and twisted like the Gordian knot. As others have said the visual presentation is so good. It’s a small detail but I love how you changed Ambrose’s name color at one point. I’m both so worried for Ambrose and also happy for her?? I don’t know how one makes something like this, I am in awe. This will be on my mind for a long while I think.

I don't think I've ever audibly gasped while playing a visual novel before but this game did multiple times for me (I'm sure you can guess at which scenes). I hate how much I relate to Ambrose but more than anything I feel incredibly bad for her. I wish I could give that poor girl a hug and tell her it's not her fault. Some fucked up part of me feels like her story couldn't have ended any other way than it did, sadly. I also really liked the theme of Greek myth and tragedy, I'm not to well versed in it so I had to do a bit of googling after I finished and you do a really good job of tying it into the story. I haven't played many of the games for the jam yet, but this is by far the most intense one. You have such a distinctive style with both your art and prose, and it was on full display in this. I'm gonna be thinking about this one for a while (hell, it's been months and I'm still thinking about Heatwave too lol). Keep up the good work.

I wanted to grab Ambrose by the shoulder and shake her... She can do so much better than her sister!! But she's who Ambrose wants. The part where cutting off her dick made her mom start leaving her alone, her dick that was what Mary wanted because she wants her mother's attention. Their mom is dead. I also like how futile the incarceration, the justice system, is: Ambrose waits for Mary to come back and they fuck again, Mom overdoses before her own sentencing. Mary making sure Ambrose feels like a freak and a queer while fucking her. Doubletrans electraoedipus complex suffering. (Mary not recognizing the trans flag and then going "I have to make my little minion stop taking drugs" is hilarious and fucked up.) How she's certain that Ambrose is doing it on purpose to copy their mom. Mary being proud of how she's grown by fucking girls while in hospital/prison while Ambrose has been needy and lonely... The 10,000 words went by really fast. Nice work. Excellent incest knot cutting and retying…

I was going to read more submissions today but this knocked me out so bad I can't anymore. I got spoiled on some details but with the greek theming that seems appropriate in retrospect, like Oedipus unavoidable fate. Just absolutely suffocating how everything keeps piling on and excellent visuals on top of the harrowing writing

Really really wonderful. I could wax poetic about this, but all I really want to say is: This was done wonderfully. A wonderful hour long experience. Evocative and masterfully crafted. Lovingly written damage to witness. Thank you for making yet another wonderful game to enjoy.

this was so brilliant, as your works have already been. i always love how expansive your characters are. i love mary's role as an older sister as a means of comforting but also manipulating ambrose whilst finding genuine solace in that control. i felt so incredibly bad for ambrose the whole time and really relate to lacking autonomy. i wish there was a world where she didn't need mary, but here we are. (also i love faux parental incest.)

this made me feel sick. the full circle use of the knot we see at start as a metaphor at the end, and nameswapping text was clever. you did a solid job evoking the emotions you were going for; something at the opposite end of what I usually create, which is cool to see fleshed out. i also appreciated how the ending looped back to the start / menu seamlessly. haven't really seem one that smooth since throughout the story you're pavloved into assuming the ripples lead to another scene.

reading this while hugging a plushie and loopy on the same type of fucked up shit ambrose was hooked on truly grants you an elevated reading experience. once again im in awe of the visual presentation of everything. you have an eye for the aesthetics and its so inspiring what you can do with your amazing photos and shader effects. and those portraits are so cute. just have to point it out aeuguhaaah i am so squeamish but i live for it. still. theres many ways to fix a lovemap broken beyond repair!!! looks like these two queers are going to have a good time. masterful writing i will be reading for the third time any time now

sorryr i jsut finished this and im crying really hard and very emotional and this feels lioke art adn irelate so hard to havign a fucked up broken family like that (even tho nothign phsycial happened) so it really really really hit me hard and I and i love ambrose i want to ake sure shes happy and that she feesl loved and has the captacity to heal even if she feels like its impawssible i lvoe yewr writign deaddeaddeath

I loved this

Another banger by death this is going to live in me forever
