I went in basically blind, went for Carlos' route, and got hooked by the raw emotion portrayed. The horror/mystery elements are also very intriguing. I can't wait to learn more about the nature of Ben's issues.
I also really enjoyed the main friend group's writing overall, it was nice to see their friendships grow naturally throughout the story. I hope to see more from these characters for sure.
I just want to say that it was very well written, raw and emotional, human.
In terms of fvn plots, it is easily a standout to me. I've been thinking more and more about his character, and his story, and the more I do the more I appreciate him and how the writers handled it all.
As someone who was initially a bit skeptical of this visual novel, I can safely say I don't regret my time I spent reading this at all, instead I'm very grateful to have read a story like this. It has certainly etched its way into my heart I can say for sure at least, thank you.
SPOILERS FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T READ THE LATEST BUILD^^
I only just now picked up this visual novel, and oh boy I can say now I was in for a doozy.
I recently came across it while scrolling through the creator pages of past visual novels I've read, and at first I didn't quite like the prospect of the theme. I am now glad that I have stuck around to let this all soak into my character.
While the opportunity to fully play through all the routes isn't possible for me at the moment(I'm a busy bee), I have gone through the process of finishing what is the full Carlos route in the current demo. This was probably the best route I could have possibly started with and ended with.
I can't embellish this enough, but the writing and effort you all put into the storytelling and creation of character and their relationships that web out and connect at different points is amazing. Oftentimes I found myself relating to the diverse cast provided, although especially with Carlos and Ben. While not for similar reasons on Carlos's part, as I am fortunate to not have gone through the lose of a loved one to drug overdose/as well as being shunned out of the household for my orientation and sexuality, I can sympathize with the needing to shoulder others burdens, and the need to take care of others can oftentimes get in the way of my own self care. My relationship status, even after the help I've gotten from others and myself, is also sadly much more in tandem with Carlos and his previous ones.
Now I don't want to write a full fledged essay, but I just want it to be known that everything that has been written, drawn, storyboarded, brainstormed, and produced here has influenced me greatly. Enough to make me create an itch account at 4AM EST and try to reach an old high school-esque word prompt, and enough to make me cry on more than several occasions now. This visual novel, is truly a masterfully articulated saga. With from what I have been able to interpret with Carlos, will only leave me with a newfound respect for the individuals pouring their effort into this beautiful project, and a new outward look at life and inward look at my own character. I cannot demonstrate and provide you all with a more specific way of knowing just how much this story has impacted me (That tiger is just such a cutie ^v^). I will more often find myself looking back at this and needing to relive the experience I have had reading, and having the opportunity to lose myself in the imaginary world I have created for your muses in my head.
I am also admittedly jealous at the character design. The diverse cast, with lots of secrets to them and many layers, just like how onion Carlos has. I appreciate the species that were involved in this novel and love how you all don't sugarcoat their problems, and show that not everything will be a happy fairytale ending, and that the real world hurts, and bitter truth stings.
Soaking all of this in, I am left with a massive amount of respect for the creators behind this visual novel. I could generally go on a long, very badly punctuated rant about every little niche thing I noticed and loved about this project, but I am an eepy fellow and must now take a small nap to dream of what I have been able to enrich my brain with now :D. And if I had to be honest, this IS the most well thought out and impactful FVN I have, and will more or less likely, will ever read. Many props to stormsinger studios and kudos to you all. You are such amazing people and I aspire to amount to the narrators/artists/creators/developers/and programmers skill and expertise in their craft one day. Now I bid adieu, it was an honor to be able to experience this, Merci. <3
I just finished with this build a day ago, after a much-needed read-and-stops. I picked Bryan as my first route and..
I can't describe it in words that much but, God. I fucking love him, sorry. Isn't he just...? Argh. Dammit. The way whatever turn out with him in the end was so, sigh, dreamy at best. I love him, so darn much (aside that he already looks hot as hell, you dumb, sexy jock...)
This VN really give me that balanced some of the romance and suspense, which I really starting to like.
I really enjoyed the route so far and I am on my second run now. Carlos intrigues me, in many ways. I can't wait to try all of them to see how beautifully written this is. Amazing VN
NB: I might start to call myself Russell #1 fan btw
I've finished the current build and I think this is amazing! The variety of music, the cg art, this is easily in my top 10, maybe in my top 5 I've ever read! Amazing work! I can't wait to see more, and for the next build!!!
I just finished what Nate's route had to offer at the moment as my first pick out of the main three and I have to say it's positively smashing! I can't wait to get to reading the others and I'm very excited for Nate's route to continue forward!
Seriously well done team. The Carlos update had me in tears both happy and sad. It resonated in a painful and good way. He really captured a part of my heart.
Now that his route is done I'm wondering if you guys can answer what, if any, more content we can expect for Carlos in Act 4 or an epilogue? Not necessarily looking for spoilers but I would love even more to look forward to in the upcoming updates.
Hello first of all thank you so much for creating this beautiful masterpiece of a visual furry novel easily the best one I've had the honor of playing also one question for you the Creator or if someone else knows the answer to this please tell me if you know will Zach get his own route in a future build?
First off, amazing game! I can't remember the last time I felt suspense from a visual novel. The cg's are amazing, and the routes, especially Carlos's route are peak. I just gotta ask, will Kane be an option to date, or will he remain a side character? While I liked Bryan, holy hell would I have dropped Bryan in a heart beat for him.
We're planning to make a branch of the Neutral route turn into a Kane route in the future! It won't be for quite some time, but there is indeed something in the plans, hehe...
So beautiful... Almost made me cry.. thank you for creating this masterpiece. I'll be waiting patiently for the next update, however long it might take.
That's a secret CG hidden in a piece of cut content. If you go to Chapter Select and scroll down, you'll find the NSFW chapter shortcuts. The cut sequence should be the first "Ben" scene.
the newest update is now out on patreon, which finishes up his act three, I assume it comes out on the fifteenth this month
i shall not say anything specifically but this update may have very well been their hottest, most emotional, grandest update yet
this was quite literally me upon finishing it
Carlos easily skyrocketed up to best of the main three, and might be decent competition for Russell for me
I hope that whether you choose to sub to get it early or wait until it's out within the next couple weeks (i assume anyway), that you all enjoy it as much as I do

It's official. We're gonna need a Kane route now

Yes, Zach is going to get his own route, but he's last in line for the romance-able cast (for reasons that should be clear as the VN progresses).
Ok thank you very much for answering my question and once again for creating this wonderful visual furry novel have a nice day
First off, amazing game! I can't remember the last time I felt suspense from a visual novel. The cg's are amazing, and the routes, especially Carlos's route are peak.

This last update is literally amazing! 🤩
So beautiful... Almost made me cry.. thank you for creating this masterpiece. I'll be waiting patiently for the next update, however long it might take.
I almost managed to get all the images in the gallery, I'm missing the one on the left of the tenth line
