Same author as Intertwine, which was released among the Otome Jam 2023 project. 115 min to get through the demo.

  • Unseen Protagonist, can pick name and pronouns.
  • 6 LIs, 4 male, 2 non binary (they/them) and one of them looks femme

There is this concept of an energy aura you can toggle on and off. Don’t know if it wouldn’t be better if seeing it was more tied to the narrative, but cool that you can control your MC magic sensing eyes.

Story: There is some crisis of the fae that really draws me in (narratively) and that brings you to Kuana’s route. When an LI needs me to save their world, it’s too hard to turn those puppy eyes down. But I was truly smitten and eye gazing with Fenir by the end of it.
I felt guilty that I had to turn away from him to help Kuana (I was like, I love you. But this man needs me 😤)

Cons: This demo is a bit unpolished, as some choices I made weren’t referred to correctly. But it didn’t ruin the demo. Some of the sprite art, especially Kayn and Aisa with their one eye- I hope it’s updated for the final release. The music should be longer before it loops or have a smoother looping transition. But may all be fixed in the final product.

I’m going to buy it when it’s released. Have you tried it?

    I haven’t tried it, but looking at their page, they have been impressively on time with updates. It looks like they post a devlog every month! Bodes well for the finished game.

      They slowed their writing on Alaris to do otojam so they could write Intertwined and that was such a good VN I have full trust Alaris will be great when finished.
