i got triggered by the fact he broke multiple health codes in the "hospital" LMAOAOAO

I loved the game. Louhi is a complex and interesting character.  You did a phenomenal job with the dialogue and the art. And the voice actor was insanely great. The only thing I would suggest is a CG page, if possible. It said Demo at the end. I'll be waiting for your updates. Thank you for this game!

I played it months ago and decided to replay.  I really like that there is voice acting of Louhi. I actually almost choke the one im drinking when he start calling baby, baby boo. He's so friendly that its suspicious from the start and flirty too with his crossing boundaries actions plus breaking hospital rules (not using facemask etc..). I really felt sad when he told us bout his background. You can see how he end up with that attitude. The feel of loneliness is dang, if it weren't for the power....  I feel really sad, he's just a guy who craves for attention and love his family nor anyone didn't give him... The fact that only the parasites within him is the only living, connected to him and can stay with him for as long as he's alive is much sadder. I can see that he is really sincere about wanting to save people but because of his power, he end up endangering everyone. You can see that he also live in isolation in order to minimize the cause. (Tho he said so WHO wont suspect something)  When Abram told him to die so he wont have victim.... Im contradicting. The guy is correct b-but :'< I also wish for his happy ending.

P.s. is it still a demo? I play it without walkthrough and got the love ending after other three endings but after walking to wood it said demo :'3

I feel so bad for Louhi, i almost cried during secret ending :( Thank you for such a good game and such a complex character. Also, the art is beautiful!

Hello! I downloaded this game without having read the warnings, and after reading them, I decided I no longer wanted to play. By the time I realized, all the data had already been downloaded onto my laptop. It is an entire 3+GB of data, and I'm worried since usually games like these are under 1 MB. I'm unable to delete the game-- every time I try, it's stuck at 0% complete. The first time I tried to delete it it said I didn't have enough disc space to delete it, so I deleted a bunch of other stuff but then I got the 0% complete issue. I just want to know why the game takes so much storage. Most is being used by the game and game backup files. I'd appreciate some reassurance since I'm no tech genius and I barely know my way around the files system, plus I've been told that unusually large files may contain malware and viruses. Thank you for taking the time to read and possibly respond.

Yeah! I remember you! I'm so sorry for being so late to reply to your comment! I've been too busy with college and studying for tests so I had to cut off social media for a while. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to pass all my tests. I study law so I have to read a lot and some of my teachers are extremely strict so I was forced to do it. I'm completely out of the loop. Only now I'm checking my messages and social media. I'm so sorry again πŸ˜“

I'm very touched that you decided to create fanart of my vn! Your fanart is so beautiful! It's a masterpiece! Saving it on my cellphone! Louhi looks extremely hot 😍πŸ₯΅ and your oc is gorgeous! Is she sick in the fanart? I noticed that she has eyebags. It's a great detail! Louhi's patients look very weak and sickly pale. Sometimes they have rash and black and red spots on the skin. You're very talent! You really know how to draw Louhi! And you colored it so well! He looks exactly like himself! You're very talented! It makes me the happiest girl in the world to know that something I created moved someone so much to the point they'd draw fanart of it! You made my day! I'm so grateful! Muchas gracias desde Brasil πŸ‡§πŸ‡· ❀️❀️πŸ₯°πŸ₯° 

Sorry again for being late! I hope we can still be friends πŸ₯°πŸ₯°β€οΈβ€οΈ

Im extracting the file right now to play and I just realized Louhi and my mom have the same birthday!!

Hi, I'm so sorry for the late reply. Been very busy with college. Thank you so very much for playing my game! Happy late birthday to your mother! I hope she's healthy and having a wonderful year! She's a fellow cancer like Louhi and I! My birthday is today 3rd July! Cancerian people are extremely sensitive and affectionate! But some of them can be very clingy, possessive and easily offended like Louhi! 

AAAAAHHH our birthdays are close!! Mine is july 9th!! happy late birthday!!

(+7)

 I really liked this game. I really liked the fact that Louhi turned out to be a human-devouring monster with highly intense possessiveness and obsession. If you continue on with this project I hope to see the mc living on with Louhi. Don't know if I'm being too straight forward but NSFW scenes would be awesome as well 🀭 if your considering it in the future with this project.

Wow, this was great! Like you, I really enjoy the very creepy and messed-up yanderes, and you nailed it with Louhi. I look forward to seeing what comes next!

Absolutely loved it! Louhi is definitely a very unique character. Id love to see more one day ❀️

WARNING! My comment has SPOILERS!

Maybe this is controversal but POOR LOUHI! Like yeah he was too selfish and self serving to live but I still wish he could have had a happier life even if it was in isolation. Considering the fact that his parents didn't die even when his powers manifested, he could have lived in isolation and still received love from at least his family. 

He's almost 300 years old and has lived to grow too attached, get insulted, lose said person and then repeat the cycle for over 2 centuries.  He's not considering the maggots and parasites to be his friends cause he loves his diseases. It's because they're the only things that actually STAY with him. 

I really enjoy him as a yandere. His manipulative, victim card playing ass still tugged on my heart strings like no other.  He could have been so much worse, a real plague but he does (somewhat) try to keep his effect to a minimum. 

I can't help but imagine a AU where he stays rotting in isolation after his powers manifest out of guilt and terror of what he could possibly do to patients he so desperatly wanted to help. And just as he's mind is crumbling, his will power breaking, a random upir stumbles upon him. A new MC. (From what I understand upirs can't get infected)

Or a alternate ending to this game. Where after Louhi kills Abram and the body is dragged into the room, MC grabs the bomb and hides it on their body. They sit Louhi down and ask him if he really will continue caring for patients the same way he did for them. Of course he'll say yes and MC just follows up with. "How is that fair to me? Aren't I your fiancee? How is it fair that I have to succumb to your illness and move on while knowing you're going to continue on without me? You might even forget me one day."

I'm sure he would try to reassure MC or even make excuses but all MC does is kiss him before saying "I don't believe you but I love you. So just as I accept you and the disease you've passed to me. Please accept the gift I have for you." Bomb revealed right before it explodes. Just like in the game Louhil survives but he's so heartbroken and shocked along with the aftereffects of the bomb that he's killed by Abram's friends.

This is stupidly long but I hope this shows how much I love Louhil! I'm a yandere sucker and one that thrives off taking care of me while I laze around? Sign me up! (I can only wish that I'm immune or he migrates the symptoms for as long as possible lol)

Hi there. I think the base of the game is pretty good! I've already saw someone comenting the same things I wanted to say, but may I add something, related to the archive weight.

I noticed there's a lot of non used sprites or drawings that could free some space in the future (if you plan to add something with this project). 
More than that, nothing to add.

Seems interesting but based on the trigger warning maybe mention that this game is 18+ (which i assume is) if it is a tag related to that would also make sense

Just suggestions tho ^^




Semi spoiler 



So started playing and noticed that even when i pick the options that Louhi wants and still crosses our boundaries that we act pretty cool which doesn't make sense at all.
Told him till the time where he wants to sleep in the bed no (he still forced us mind you that was after the bathing scene where at that point all alarm bells should be ringing) and we literally said that we are comfortable around him and even questioned if we love him???

No hate but i think the MC is really delusional to a point where it doesn't make any sense anymore. Like i know it will change the endings but it would make sense to already show some signs in which direction we are going because if some stranger crosses that many times your boundary you would at least feel uncomfortable (it just seem to me that the scenes so far could be one on one be used in the route were we complied which again doesn't make sense. And i know about the anesthesia but even that wouldn't make you that delusional especially since the MC does recognize what he is doing is controlling and invasive and patronizing )


Again no hate if that was your intention then so it is just wanted to share another perspective ^^

(+1)

I wont lie and say i kinda wish for loving Louhi, she's like  Bella from Twilight, becoming immune to Louhi's powers.


But yeah, love the game so far, love it!!

OMG!!! THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!!! THIS MADE ME ECSTATIC!!! I'M SO MOVED!!! IT MAKES MY DAY TO KNOW THAT SOMEONE WAS ABLE TO CONNECT WITH MY PASSION CREATION!!! I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU LIKED LOUHI!!! IT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME!!! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS!!!

I had an emotional meltdown when I first read your comment and saw your AMAZING fanart. I'm so sorry for my late reply. I had a test at college yesterday night and was very stressed and overwhelmed. I saw your lovely comment some minutes before my test and it really calmed down and gave me strength. I was so moved! It really means the world that you liked my little game and Louhi! I wish we could be friends. Thank you so very much for your support and love πŸ₯°β€οΈ

HEHEHEHHEHEH THANK YOUUUUUUU <3333 I really hope this underrated gem gets to more people, thanks for taking the time to see my drawing! I really enjoyed your game and it kind of helped me get out of artblock hehe- and sure we can be friends! Hope you the best on your test and make sure to take some rest <3

I don't know if Louhi's a big manipulator and has me in the palm of his hand, or if he's really sincere. I felt so sorry for him when I heard his story, it's really sad to tell someone to kill themselves because of who they are, especially in Louhi's situation where he has no control over infecting other people or having this gift. I wonder why his gift is the only one in his family that's different... But it makes me sad that his own family has simply isolated him like this.

I feel like he really tries to get some kind of approval and positive feelings from his patients because he didn't get it from his family (family issues are so common lol) but he ruins other people's lives, he kills them, it's so complicated! I just wish Louhi could find a way to be happy :(

(+1)

Thank you so much for commenting! It means a lot to me! So, about Louhi, it's both at the same time. He's very sincere about his feelings and struggles. He really is suffering and is very moved when the protagonist accepts him. But he's also a big manipulator. Although he's not lying when he says that he suffers a lot, he also wants the mc to feel bad for him and get their sympathy. It fuels him when someone validates what he's feeling. He's very needy and really craves attention, affection, appreciation and being coddled. And he thinks he'll get all that by making people feel sorry for him. Not gonna lie though, he became a closet narcissist due to the treatment he received from his family so he's always playing victim and is unable to ever see himself in the wrong. Deep down he knows that his existence is hurting people and if he really cared abour their wellbeing, he'd just isolate himself somewhere far away from human civilization. But he can't stand to be alone so he copes by believing that he's a benevolent doctor with the mission of taking care of humans and denying that he's a selfish creature that hurts people.

I also feel very feel sorry about him. Although I wrote him to be a pitiful character with a tragic existence, I'm honestly surprised that I managed to make you feel sorry for him. I think you're the second person to say that you feel sorry for him. The reactions to him I mostly got from people were that he's terrifying, a creep, different of other yandere guys, not the yandere they were expecting or not the player's favorite type of yandere for different reasons. One of the players who posted a playthrough on youtube absolutely despised him. They thought he's extremely annoying/aggravating, totally unlikable, narcissistic garbage/weak character. Not gonna lie, I didn't write him to be that unlikable, instead to some extent I wrote him to make people pity him and feel conflicted about him. I guess my writing failed to make people feel that way about him.

Louhi is one unlucky guy. His gift is the exact opposite of his family's. Sometimes, but it's rare, an upir child will get superpowers that are the opposite of their parents's. Louhi was just extremely unlucky. It's very sad that his family got rid of him because of his defect. In their point of view, Louhi is a burden that would get in the way of their missionary work and ruin their business/mission/tradition. They were thinking about the wellbeing of their patients so their priority was to protect the humans they cure and exile Louhi as far away as possible to minimize the damage his destructive powers caused.

Yes, he definitely tries to get approval and positive feelings from his patients because he didn't get it from his family. Actually he tries to get everything from his patients that he didn't get from his parents. His patients are his reason to live, his source of survival, his emotinal supply, the preys he leeches on. His life turned him into an emotinal vampire that will suck the soul out of everyone in his path until there's nothing left. He's frequently told by his patients to kill himself once they find out about his true nature, that he's the cause of their pain and sickness. He still hasn't gotten used to it though and always has an emotional meltdown when it happens. 

Same. Louhi is a serious danger to human society and should be exterminated for the sake of humanity's safety. But I also feel very comflicted about his actions. I too wish he could have a happy ending, but that's impossible. He's as doomed as his victims/patients.

(+1)

Oh, I understand how you feel, but I don't think it's a problem with your writing, I think that each type of yandere, as well as games, universes and so on, has its own target audience, its niche that will love it and interpret it the way you want or more than that (like me :3) I know yanderes who are worse than Louhi, there are people who defend or love, in Louhi's case I understand him on certain issues and if I were the MC (I'm already in deep shit and dying) I'd try to help him in some way, like maybe try to find out if there is a cure? Something to control the effect of his virus? Who knows! Even try to get into his head somehow so he can isolate himself forever, so yeah, the famous "i can fix him" lol

You've written him well, and if you intend to continue Louhi's saga, I'm sure that depending on the path you follow, how you develop him in the future and even the story and our choices and endings, Louhi may be seen with different eyes, or even as you wanted him to be seen, you never know. Like, I find Louhi very pushy and invasive, out of nowhere he kissed me wtf, and even bathed me, but I'm easily manipulated and I feel sorry for him because it can't be easy being a fucking parasite who just needed his fucking family to accept and love him, maybe even try to help him in some way. 

The acts he commits may not be justified, but they can be understood (I think so) the worst thing is that he doesn't see or doesn't want to see that he's doing EVERYTHING wrong, but it's to be expected that Louhi has a disturbed mind (if not, he wouldn't be a yandere lmao) Anyway, I really liked everything, and I really hope I can see more of Louhi, or maybe other works, in the future <3

(1 edit) (+1)

I really love your comment! Comments like these are what motivates me! Not gonna lie, I really felt disheartened by one of the critics I got. Aside from saying that Louhi is a weak character, they didn't like how the choices didn't have immediate impact on the story except which ending you get. The thing is that it's a conscious choice. When you're stuck with Louhi, you're in a hopeless situation so you have to feel helpless and like your choices don't matter because he can't take NO for an answer. That's the entire point of his character. He wants to have full control and access to you and how would I be able to convey his controlling and entitled nature if he listens to you when you tell him NO?

Now I see that you're right that each yandere story and universe has its own niche. At first I thought that the yandere fandom was a whole single niche so I thought that everyone who likes yandere characters would enjoy my story as long as it was a story with a yandere character. But after releasing my game, I found out that I was wrong. Even inside the yandere fandom there are different niches, people with different tastes in different types of yanderes. So even if someone likes the yandere trope, that doesn't necessarily mean they'll like a yandere character like Louhi. They won't feel bad for him at all, more likely they'll think he deserves everything he gets because of his insufferable narcissism and victim complex.

One of the reasons I created Louhi is because I find most yandere characters in the fandom too tame and harmless for me. I wanted to create a really messed up yandere who violates all personal boundaries and poses serious danger to the mc's life. I don't know many yandere characters that are worse than Louhi, but there are some I personally can't stand, but most people love them. 

I'm very glad that I could get Louhi's struggles and feelings through to you, even if it's just one person. Louhi would really appreciate you trying to help him. I haven't thought about that yet, but maybe there could be a cure or something that could put his disease-spreading powers under control. Maybe with love and patience you would be able to fix him lol

Again I'm really happy that you think I wrote him well! It means the world to me to receive comments like these! I'd really like to continue Louhi's story, but I also want enough engagement to do it. Even if it's fun writing Louhi, it feels bad to put love and effort into something just for my work to be ignored to oblivion. One of my plans for Louhi is for him to seek redemption for his crimes. Louhi is actually part of an universe I created where the upir and the sith(aos si, a type of fairy from celtic folklore) are in constant competition to see which race has more power and influence in the human world. I decided to create a short visual novel just about Louhi because he's my favorite character and to test my storytelling skills.

Desperation. Louhi is the kind of guy who proposes to you on your first date and invites himself to house to live with you. He just skips all proper steps to form a natural intimate relationship and go straight to marriage and having kids. Louhi's worst fear is being alone so he's always desperate for intimacy. That's why he's so invasive and pushy. He's not able to wait until he naturally develops intimacy step by step with someone. He wants intimacy RIGHT NOW to immediately heal his unbearable loneliness. He feels entitled to immediate intimacy with random strangers to heal his loneliness and will get irrationality furious at the slighest sign of resistence. That's how he works. 

Yes, it's very hard to be Louhi. He wants someone to be always there for him, but everyone who gets close to him dies too soon. His family didn't want to risk having him around and killing more patients. They think it'd take too long to come up with a solution to Louhi's situation(if a solution really does exist) and too many humans would die in the process if they kept Louhi around for much longer. Notice another reference to his victim complex and never thinking he's wrong is when he implies that his family disowned him and kicked him out of the house because they're mean and didn't believe in his potential to follow their tradition, but he leaves out the important detail that they did this because he kills people around him.

Yes, I tried to write him in a way that people could understand his point of view, but at the same time trying to make sure that his actions are unforgivable and unjustified. It's his defence mechanism, if he viewed himself for who he is, as a monster who kills people to satisfy his selfish desires, then he wouldn't be able to keep on living. He's always in a state of denial. He really doesn't want to look at himself in the mirror or he would end up commiting suicide. But he doesn't want to die yet because he thinks the world owes him the things he couldn't get in the past so he won't give up until he's satisfied(which will never happen) and gets everything he wants and also because if he did commit suicide, he'd just prove the world that he's worthless and that his existence is meaningless. To counter the latter he tries to prove his usefulness and worth by continue living to take care of his patients. I think I at least managed to show people he has a very disturbed mind. Thank you so very much for your support and for liking Louhi! It means the world to me when people are able to connect with my creation! Thank you very much for believing in me and being interested in my works! Let's see what the future has in store for Louhi ☺️

Y de casualidad tendra Twitter?

Hi there! Thank you so very much for enjoying my game and leaving a comment! I really appreciate your kind words! Comments like these are what motivates me! And I'm so glad that you liked Louhi and his many facial expressions! It means the world to me πŸ₯°β€οΈ

great game! a very unexpected plot twist and fresh take on the yandere trope. even though he's not my "type" personally, i still really enjoyed the fact that he's so unique, and i think it's good that there is variety in yandere games instead of each one being cookie-cutter. with that being said, i have to ask.. why does the list of content warnings include r*pe? i'm fairly certain that doesnt happen in-game, unless i somehow missed it (and i got all of the endings so i cant imagine how)..

Hi there! Thank you so very much for giving my little game a chance and enjoying it! It means the world to me! To be honest, one of the reasons I made this game is because I'm so tired of the yandere love interest I come cross on indie games on itchi.io. This might sound preposterous, but let's just say that I rarely add yandere love interests from indie game on itch.io because I find them too vanilla/tame and illogical for my tastes. So I figured, if nobody is gonna make a game with a yandere love interest I like, then I should make one myself. Answering your question, where I come from, I've seen people who already consider things like forced kissing or pinning someone to the bed or touching someone's private parts rape, even if there's no penetration. If some people already consider things like that rape, even without penetration, I decided to add rape to the trigger warnings in case someone who thinks like that(as people from all over the world plays itch.io games therefore lots of different views and cultures) plays my game. My game was a submission to yanjam 2024 and the jam host said that they would remove entries that didn't add trigger warnings so I preferred to be safer than sorry.

thank u so much for adding to our options for yandere boys! there's nothing i respect more than the attitude of making the content you want to see haha. i wish i could do the same, but alas, i have no talent in drawing art. i'd like to take this opportunity to encourage you to continue making visual novels and building your skills, as you've made a great game and i can see that you've put a lot of effort and love into it (and especially into louhi). well done!

i see your point about it better being safe than sorry with the content warnings. i'd like to kindly warn you, though, that it might give some people the wrong impression about what kind of content they'd find in the game. some people are very kinky and they're into "cnc" (consenual non-consensual -- commonly known as a r*pe fantasy) content, so they might mistake that content warning to mean that there are erotic scenes of that nature in the game.

i wish you good luck with all your future endeavors, friend.

This was (terrifyingly) AMAZING!! I've played a lot of games like this and very rarely does the love interest ACTUALLY scare me but whoo boy this was a LOT of fun!! Louhi is so deceptively handsome and at first you think he'll be subtle but NOPE, smooch time in less than 5 minutes of meeting the MC!β™₯ And I LOVED the voice acting, it fit so well and really added to the horror!! And I love how accurate he was with his medical knowledge, I just really love well read characters.

Hi, Espoir! Sorry for the late reply. I was just so moved when I first saw your comment that I just didn't know what to write 😳🀭

I've been your fan for a while and I'm always watching your videos so it was a huge honor when I found out you played my game! I never expected my little game to get your attention! I'm so happy right now! It really means the world to me that you played and enjoyed my game! I'm completely ecstatic! It means so much that you of all people said my game is amazing since I'm such a fan and you have so much experience with these kinds of game so you really know what you're talking about! 

I was so worried my game wouldn't scare anyone so it makes so happy that I managed to be successful at that! I'm also ecstatic that you liked Louhi! He's a very special oc to me! Surprisingly he's kind of my comfort oc character. I wanted to make him seductive/alluring, but unsettling and scary at the same time, but somewhat repulsive and unconventionally attractive in his upir form. And I'm so happy/overjoyed that I was able to achieve what I envisioned his character, both appearance wise and personality wise, to be! 

Yes, Louhi is like a predator who feels entitled to do whatever he wants with his preys. Boundaries and personal space are foreign concepts to him so he gets furious when you don't let him do what he wants with you. He sees his patients as his possessions, and as his possessions he thinks he can manhandle/do whatever he wants with them, and he becomes enraged when they show the slightest sign of disobedience/defiance/unwillingness. He's the type that straight up kills you or even tortures you if you don't do every little thing what he wants, but he prefers to imagine/think of himself as a benevolent doctor to satisfy his ego because deep down he's a huge narcissist(but he doesn't want to admit it). And I wanted to convey that disregard for seeing people as individuals with free will and agency.

I found the voice actor on castingcallclub. Voice acting wasn't the most important thing on my list, but I thought it'd be so cool to give Louhi a voice since he's such an important creation to me! I wasn't expecting much, but I was so impressed with the submissions! The first time I heard Louhi's voice actor auction, I knew he was the one! I just had to get him to dub Louhi! But at the same time, I was so worried that his price would be out of my budget. I live in a country where the us dollar is extremely expensive, 1 us dollar equals 5 reais, so I became disheartened. But miraculously, he charged an amount I'd be able to pay! I was overjoyed! And he was also so kind and patient with me! Even if it wasn't a great amount, he still did an amazing performance! I was so moved to see my most special oc getting such a beautiful voice full of emotional! I'll let the voice actor know that you enjoyed his performance! I'm sure he's gonna be happy to know!

Yes, I wanted people to believe Louhi was really an infectious disease doctor so I tried my best to add accurate science facts among the supernatural part. I wanted to mix both elements in harmony so I searched a lot about all kinds of infectious diseases like COVID, ebola, tuberculosis, HIV, spanish flu, etc. I read many articles and watched lots of documentaries. I'm relieved that I succeeded in making the player believe that Louhi is actually well versed in infectious diseases and pathogens. 

Anyway, sorry if I spoke too much. But I'm just so freaking happy that you played and enjoyed my game! Never in my entire life I'd imagined that you'd give any of my projects a chance! It's such a honor to be featured on your channel! Keep up your amazing work of making people happy with your videos and giving small creators a chance to shine! 

Just to finish my reply, I'll let here some fun facts about Louhi's creation:

Louhi's name is based on an evil deity from finnish mythology that spreads diseases. It might be a girl name, but I found it so beautiful and it fits him to a T.

Louhi is an upir/upior/upier/upyr(there are many way to spell that), a ghoulish/vampiric creature from slavic mythology that explodes into lots of maggots when you destroy them. This is one of the reasons why Louhi has maggots and other parasites living inside his body. I also wanted to make the player think of him as a repulsive walking copse filled with maggots, smelling like rotting flesh and with a deathly corpse parlor as if he was already dead.

I am equally excited!! I'm so happy when developers watch my videos!!! THANK YOU!! 

I am so moved that Louhi is such an important character to you! I love when developers share their favorite characters and I see that a ton of love was put into Louhi! He really is a great character now that I see everything that went into him! You definitely did a great job showing his personality! Upirs sounded familiar but I had no idea of that sort of creature or the goddess that inspired his name! That's so COOL!!!β™«β™ͺ Also I just read the walkthrough for the secret ending and want to make a shorter video on that too!

This game was actually really good! Please continue, I'd love to play the fill version.

Thank you very much for your kind words! It fills me with joy when people like my little passion project! I'd love to continue! But it depends of my budget in the future and if there's enough engagement πŸ™‚

and one more question. Do you have a link "donation Alerts"? for donations. 

Hi again! I don't have a link to that kind of site. I don't even know how this site works. Sorry for my ignorance, but what is "Donation Alerts"? It's the first time I hear about this site πŸ˜…

But again, thank you so very much for your interest in my little game! It means the world to me! Every comment I get makes my heart flutter ❀️

this is a website for a donations) I'm from russia and I dont know any other way to make adonation.  everything was limited to us because of "you know what"

I see now! It's so cool to see that people from all over the world are interested in my game! But why are you asking for this link? Are you perharps interested in helping this project with donations?

Π΄Π°) Ρ…ΠΎΡ‡Ρƒ ΡΠ΄Π΅Π»Π°Ρ‚ΡŒ Π΄ΠΎΠ½Π°Ρ‚ ΠΈ ΡΠΊΠ°Π·Π°Ρ‚ΡŒ спасибо!) sorry, for my poor english)

No need to be sorry at all! Your english is great!

Just used google translate to translate your message! 

Never in my life would I have expected that someone would want to donate to help a project I created! I'm extremely flattered! I don't even know what to say πŸ˜…

But I have no idea how to use donation sites and dealing with money gives me anxiety πŸ˜…

This was just a passion project made with lots of love with the purpose of making people have fun so money never crossed my mind ☺️

I might consider accepting donations in the futures because of your suggestion. But right now, I'm much more interested in getting feedback and comments on what people thought of the game. Things like what they liked the most about the game or how they felt while playing the game or what they think about Louhi, etc. Things like that. For now, you can help by leaving a comment explaining with more details what you liked the most about the game, talking about your experience playing the game in general. Comments like that really make my day☺️

You can write your review of the game in russian if you're more comfortable. I'll just translate it with google translate πŸ™‚

Hello! is this demo version? I'm so excited adout the game! Is there any way to make russian subtitles?((

Hi there! I left the end open for a demo in case people show interest for a continuation. It feels me with joy that you're excited about my game! It means the world to me! Thank you so very much for your interest in my game ❀️πŸ₯°

As for a russian translation, I'm very interested in it! Actually I'm interested in my game being translated to any kind of language! But I don't know how to implement a translation in the game. Someone would need to help me. But yes! I'm very interested in a russian translation! If you know someone who can translate the game to russian(for free tho because I already spent too much in this game), do let me know πŸ™‚

yooo i remember seeing you in the discord server debating your logo lolll

glad to see your game came together! cant wait to play it!!! (downloading)

Wow! Hi there! Yep, that's me! It's very nice to see you again! I love how someone from discord(who witnessed a bit of my game developing journey) found me ☺️

Thank you so much! I think releasing this game is already a victory! Almost thought I wouldn't make it in time! Thank you so much for being interested in my game! It means a lot to me! It's definitely not perfect, but I hope you can get some fun out of it ☺️

This wasn't what I was expecting... but I loved it. I also feel like about person for liking Louhi. I didn't know this was a demo until I got the To Be Continued ending. I loved this please make more.

Hi there! Thank you very much for playing my game! It means a lot to me that you liked it enough to want a continuation! If there's enough engagement, then I might consider continuing the story! I'm so happy that you liked Louhi! It really means a lot to me! On a side note, everyone who played the game and left a comment said that it wasn't what they were expecting. I really wonder what were the players expecting? Can you try to enlighten me on what were people expecting?

(+2)

I wasn't expecting a non-human flesh eating guy, or the he is making me sick and is going to eat me.

Hahaha! Thank you very much for enlightening me! I'm very happy that I was able to surprise you and defy your expectations(I hope you consider that a good thing)!

(+1)

It is, I love new and unique story's.

It fills me with joy that you liked it! Thank you so very much for your kind words! Even though it's not perfect, I made this game with so much passion and love so it means the world to me when someone tells me what they liked about it πŸ₯°β€οΈ

Boo! πŸ‘»

I've been scrolling through the Yandere tag for a while-- and eventually, I stumbled here! I plan to make some notes and remarks about this game for funsies (and in case u guys need some feedback)

^ I'm saying this bc I already found some small errors

(Mild spoilers, but dw there's no meaningful spoilers)




1) When I click the button to save, it brings me to the load screen (arrow pointing south)



When I chose the load button (arrow pointing north) it led me to the save screen instead

.

2) Text often doesn't fit the box 

it's not a critical issue, but I just thought it was noticeable enough to mention




.

3) Last but not least, there was just a weird janky/funky feel to Louhi when he changed expressions

I got this sense that maybe different people were drawing him, bc his hair's shading, clothes shading, and collarbone were artistically inconsistent 

they all had the same lineart/outline, but the coloring was just slightly off (the red cross over his chest also changed to a darker red in some sprites).

(2 edits)

Hi there! Thank you very much for giving my game a chances despite its flaws! I greatly appreciate feedback! Thank you very much for taking the time to point out mistakes you found!

1) That's a trick one. I had no idea which is supposed to be which. I didn't program the GUI. I only programmed very basic stuff. I guess I'll have to talk to the main programmer later.

2) That's very  weird because I checked the dialogue you showed as an example and it did fit the box:

 

I really wonder why this is happening to you and whether all players are having this issue. If so, then that's very concerning.

3) All the sprites were drawn by the same artist. It's just that I commissioned them per entire sprite and not per facial expressions so they had to draw the sprite all over again. I wish I had commissioned them by facial expression, but that wasn't an option with them. I was hoping that people wouldn't mind tho.  But now it's confirmed that players do mind after all. I can't do anything about that unless I ask the artist to remake all the sprites which will take too much time(they are very busy) and cost too much money(they charge in us dollar and I'm not from the US or Europe so it's extremely expensive for me). Despite all that, I really hope you can forgive a little the game's flaws. Thank you very much again for your feedback and for taking the time to write all that :) 

Unfortunately, later the sprites will look even more inconsistent when

Spoiler ahead

Louhi changes form.

😨😨 woah... it's almost as if-- as if the preview pictures don't show that already!!! 

lmao I'm jk

on the topic of his second form, I wanted to showcase (😎) this cool fanart I made for little cutie patootie Louhi ^^

The coolest link in existence

(+2)

khghkhdsghkogsfjkjdzdvj 😍😍😍😍😍❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️

OMG!! THIS IS SO PERFECT!! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL PRESENT!! I'M SO FREAKING HAPPY RIGHT NOW!! NEVER IN MY ENTIRE LIFE I IMAGINED I'D GET FANART!! THIS MEANS THE WORLD TO ME!! YOU MADE MY YEAR!! YOU EVEN DREW HIS THICK EYEBROWS!!

This reminds me so much of the first drawing of Louhi in his upir form:


Fun fact: Louhi's design and backstory was mostly inspired by Douma from Kimetsu no Yaiba. Ever since falling in love with Douma, I developed a thing for thick eyebrows:



And by all means, I can't wait to see your oc!

(11 edits) (+1)

I don't get why his brow brows are so important, but you go fam!

(Absolutely love the first drawing form tho-- curly hair all the way!)

(I got an idea that Louhi was inspired by Douma bc they're both: cannibalistic, demonic (?), blond, THICK EYEBROWS

and also bc I scrolled through your twitter likes and slowly connected the dots there (crazy douma fan alert lmao)

but I 100% understand you fam, crazy cannibals wowie did somebody turn the ac up cus it is HOT in here (It's mostly me who's hot but yk the joke was that the men are hot awushd)

AND!!! About my (AMAZING) oc (king cherry) I get that the vn was otome aka female protagonist, but yk, he's a rebel! Rules are made to be broken   πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜Ž



Oh yeah (last edit hopefully) When I replayed the game some more and found out:

The text didn't fit when I played in minimized screen -- versus when I played in full screen, the text fit the box

it might be a win vs mac issue, or it might just be the way you play (aka full screen or minimized) so yeah, that might clear some things up 

(1 edit)

I don't really know for sure why thick eyebrows are that important either. But they awakened something in me. I guess it's probably because they seem manly and quirky, which I'm a sucker for.

Hell yeah! I freaking love curly hair so much πŸ₯΅

I'm like a crazy cat lady! The difference is that I'd be surrounded by Doumas if they existed! Yep, crazy Douma fan! My twitter and tumblr is full of Douma related stuff lmao

I love how Douma is an oni, a creature from japanese mythology. So I searched for creatures from all kinds of foreign mythology to base on. Louhi is an Upir/Upior/Upier/Upyr(there are many ways to spell that), which is a ghoulish/vampiric creature from slavic mythology. They explode into various maggots when you kill them hence why Louhi has lots of maggots living inside his body.



I also wanted the player to think of Louhi as a grotesque being and remind them of a walking corpse so I made maggots live inside his body and gave him a rotting flesh odor when he gets hungry and corpse like skin color.

Great that you can understand me buddy! Crazy undead cannibal men turn me on so hard! The sense of danger is the hottest thing in the world(I think lots of people will agree with me on that)! It's like you're dancing with death! You're walking on tiptoes with these guys. One wrong word and you're dead. Another meal for them. 

Heck yeah! Love me some rebel man! I love how Cherry is a meaningful name that fits his design! Louhi's name is actually based on finnish mythology and it's a reference to his disease-spreading powers: 


It's actually a girls name, but I think it fits him to a T πŸ‘Œ

Later I'll make a post talking more in depth about all the inspirations I got to create Louhi.

And I'm glad the issue could be fixed by playing the game in fullscreen. I also thought it was a mac vs win issue. I was getting very concerned there about it. Glad it could be solved.

Hello, thank you for including a mac version. I appreciate your art, both CGs and sprites for your game. I finished the game and was surprised by how I understood the science behind it. It was also not the yandere that I was expecting.

This is just my personal preference but I do tend to like love interests who are yanderes only to the MC. Like they don't share the same affection towards other people even before they met MC. They're crazy and show their obsession and possessiveness exclusively to the MC. 

I'm not saying that your love interest isn't a yandere tho. Just not my type of yandere. Still, I enjoyed the game. I miraculously got the ending where the MC got better. Maybe I was too honest at choosing responses hahaha.

Hi there! Thank you so much for playing my game! It means a lot! I'm so happy that you liked the art of the game! People in the comments were asking for a mac version so with the help of some tutorials I managed to upload the mac build. And, yes, I researched a lot about infectious diseases while writing the game so there'd be some reality behind the supernatural stuff and to showcase Louhi's knowledge in his field. I'm very happy that you were able to understand the science behind it. I was afraid I would make the players too confused. Yes, Louhi is kinda different from your average yandere. Thing is, Louhi's circumstances are difficult and kinda different than most yandere.

Spoilers ahead

Due to Louhi's disease-spreading powers, his partners always get sick and don't last long. But Louhi can't stand being alone. He's desperate for love, appreciation, emotional validation and praise. He's a narcissistic "emotional vampire" that will devour everything in his path because he's desperate for love and companionship. That's why he's always changing partners and can't afford to have a "special one" because they'll always die on him and he'll get lonely again(which is his worst fear). He always needs to have someone by his side or else he'll get lonely. Remember how his family rejected him because of his inconvenient powers and how even his fellow upirs avoid him because they find him annoying and a liability? He feels alone in the world so he wants someone to be there for him.

Even if he didn't have disease-spreading powers, he's imortal and old so his human partner will always die before him and he'll get lonely again(and he can't let this happen). Why doesn't he date another upir then? Because Louhi thinks they are too strong and independent while he's too possessive, controlling and clingy so they won't wanna deal with his bs and give him the time of the day. Louhi prefers to date humans because he deems them as worth of protection. He wants his partner to depend completely on him and to be seen as a savior/caretaker/provider so he'll feel loved and needed.

I also decided to make him possessive and obsessive torwards more than one person in order to make every player feel like they have a chance with Louhi. Quite often I find myself thinking why a yandere falls in love with the mc and not with someone else and why they will never be able to love another person again. Most people imagine themselves as the special mc while I feel like I'll never have a chance with them because they only love the mc due to very particular and restricted circumstances. That's why I decided to give the love interest a believable reason why they fall in love with the mc and why they can fall in love again with another person.

I completely understand your point tho. I just thought your comment was a great chance to talk more in depth about Louhi's character since you mentioned different types of yandere. And, yes, I find it a miracle that you were able to get the ending where the mc got better without the walkthrough! Again, thank you so much for playing and enjoying my game! It means a lot to me! I really appreciate your comment!

hey do u think you can also make a Mac version :)

Hi, thank you so much for commenting! I'm so sorry for the late reply. I was finally able to upload a mac version. Please check it out and see if it's working :)

Wasn't the yandere I was expecting

Thank you very much for playing my game! Now I'm curious, what kind of yandere were you expecting?

(+2)

Hi. Didn't mean this in a bad way, I loved the game. Just didn't expect the yandere's secret. I loved it, what  a plot twist!

Omg! Thank you so much for liking my game! I'm so happy! It means a lot ❀️

i'd love to play, i hope one day the game gets a mac version :3

wait you can't play if you on a Mac?

unfortunately, no you need a seperate version, macs are weird like that 0.o

Hi there! Thank you so much for commenting! I was finally able to upload a mac version. Please check it out and see if it's working :)

the game was so intriguing!! louhi is one selfish boy, i love him tho 


andddd as a girlie in the med field i have an addiction to smart hot doctors :3 but also i felt really bad about how louhi's family essentially never treated him right, i wanted to shower him with love so bad (and did even tho i got killed oops) 


overall this was a lovely experience and also so so so well made!! 

Hi there! Thank you so very much for commenting! I'm completely ecstatic to hear that you loved Louhi ❀️

I'm extremely happy that you liked my game! It means the world to me πŸ₯Ή

That so cool! I'm not in the med field, but I can't help but view doctors as caretakers and I'm a sucker for guys who take care of you! And same. I feel so bad for Louhi too. His family thinks his entire existence is a disgrace so they got rid of him asap. To some extent they are not wrong, but it's still a very tragic and cruel fate. Nobody likes Louhi because of his inconvenient/chaotic powers and to some extent due to his annoying personality. I also wanted to give this selfish, annoying boy all the love in the world(even though it'd get myself killed). He's so desperate to find love anywhere he can. I'm so happy you chose to shower him with love even though it got yourself killed πŸ₯°

Thank you so very much for your kind words! And thank you so very much again for liking my game! Each comment I get fills me with so much joy! It really means the world to me ❀️πŸ₯°
