I deserve a happy ending

Really not a fan of the game and am hoping I can get a refund. The art is beautiful and the characters are well-designed, but that's about all I can say in favor of it. The plot doesn't really make sense if you think about it at all and, despite being described in the beginning as kind and virtuous, the MC's entire motivation throughout is to look good by doing a heroic deed. If the MC were presented as a more selfish, opportunistic type of person (a la The Pretender's Guild,) it would make for an interesting premise to see him fake his way into a good deed and allow for character development. Instead, the MC is supposed to be a gallant, selfless prince despite the fact that every "good" action he takes is for his own benefit. He's even willing to allow an evil sorcerer to go free and set loose "a thousand years of calamity" rather than admit that it was his own fault the sorcerer got loose in the first place (this scene was where I stopped playing.) The game is also simply very short. The pacing felt off and there was little to no substance to any of it. The story hardly moved at all, imo, but I did only play the elf's (I forget his name) route before seeing if I could get a ref…

short, simple, and fun little visual novel! well worth a few bucks!!

I enjoyed this cute story game, though to be fair I have a soft spot for stories where a character is aware of being part of a story and still must largely act in accordance with the plot. It's a game that requires you to play a couple routes to "unlock" more story, but is still fairly quick to go through and doesn't overstay it's welcome. Or take itself too seriously. The art is pretty good too with several pretty CGs. (The characters aren't particularly deep though, if that is a dealbraker for you.)

overall, i thought this was a pretty enjoyable visual novel. though i do feel like there could've been [i]more[/i] to it. the vn has a 1-3 hour run time (yes, that includes dlc and all routes included). it took me about an hour to get through it all. the parts i read were enjoyable, but i just think there could've been more to the story. especially since i love fantasy themes and i liked the idea where you have to help the main character create a happy ending. the art is rather pleasant to look at too, but sometimes there's a bit of awkward style shifts. this is especially shown in the action scenes where the characters are chibi-fied for no reason. if this was for comedic effect, i wouldn't bat too much of an eye. but with serious scenes it felt a little awkward. especially since the artist seems to have enough skills to be able to draw such scenes. the game interface itself seems to also be buggy. for some reason, when i loaded it up in my steam deck, the ren'py software kept giving me errors and i had to restart. luckily this didn't happen the other time i booted it up. if you also choose to implement the 18+ cgs, it's said that you cannot get certain cgs unless you turn off…

Pretty short game, the twist during the true ending was nice and felt correct for how the plot went during multiple playthroughs.

This game know how to break the four walls
