About Black Lilies - Eternal Summer
"I wish this summer vacation would never end..." Everybody has probably thought that at some point. But what if such a thing were to really come true?
Alice Hanekawa and her 6 friends have been trapped, repeating their summer vacation for over 10 years. At first, it was fun... But fun gave way to boredom, boredom gave way to frustration, and it's only a matter of time before frustration gives way to madness. All of them are tired and worn down, and they barely talk to one another anymore... Everyone has splintered into little groups, and the unity they once had has completely eroded away. Even death is no escape.
Nothing has changed... But something has to. Of course, they've tried to find a way out before; tried to figure out the truth behind the time loop. It's hardly her first attempt, but Alice has to do something... She's more desperate now than ever before. But will that really be enough? Even if she finds a way out, can she heal everybody's hearts before they leave? And what deeper mysteries could these time loops truly be holding?
Black Lilies - Eternal Summer is a one-man effort. After years of troubled development, lack of funding, and some snafus with artists, the developer was forced to make almost everything in the game himself, with no prior drawing experience. Please don't judge this book by its cover.
Features:
The game contains some lewd content but no full H-scenes or full nudity.

Black Lilies - Eternal Summer is a visual novel about a group of friends who are trapped in a time loop of their summer vacation. I was interested in it because it takes place more than a decade after the loops began, which is different from a lot of time loop stories. Because the game was made almost entirely by one person, the presentation is pretty basic - each character sprite has a few poses but only one outfit, and there are very few CGs. The music is fine but nothing special. I did like the map where you could choose what you did each day, but I'm pretty sure that until the third section you actually have to do all of the things anyway so it creates a sort of illusion of choice. I noticed quite a few typos in the text, but no real bugs or glitches. The story was fine - I actually really liked the second chapter - but it drags on way too long with the main character doing variations on the same thing over and over. I liked the main character Alice a lot. That sort of brave, determined heroine is one of my favourite types of main character in a VN. That being said, most of the other characters are extremely tropey and change personalities quickly for the sake of the plot. Al…12 found this helpful
cute visual novel about a time loop mystery and cute girls~! uwu because visual novels are very story-oriented, there's not much i can say without spoiling it, but i'll do my best to keep spoilers as light as possible (extra important for a mystery vn too). there's also a lot of subjectivity and personal preference involved as to whether or not you may enjoy this, so i'll write about my experiences and allow you to decide if it sounds appealing to you uwu the story is definitely dark, but i wouldn't call it horror (at least not the jumpscare kind). the mature content description by the developer lists potential triggers pretty thoroughly. it's not a super dark story, so it's great for if you want a story that's not too extreme. personally, i think the highlight of the story is the mystery. i ended up buying the game 'cause my sister saw me looking at it, and she's a big mystery fan, so she asked me to read it with her. we had a fun time taking it slow as we tried to deduce the mystery together. it's not an overly-complicated one, and it's very realistic for the reader to figure it out. plus, the developer really went out of their way to cover all the different questions the read…9 found this helpful
Not quite finished yet, but it's honestly better than expected. The writing is pretty good, the girls are mostly memorable and the art sorta grows on you after a while9 found this helpful
