I really enjoyed the demo! Are you still working on the full game?
Such a beautiful game, with fascinating characters and amazing dialogue! I can't wait for the full game to be released!
i loved this demo soooo much! i can't wait for the full game!!!!
Absolutely fantastic! The art, the writing, the overall attention to detail; you guys made one hell of a demo. I can't wait until the full version is released!
is it finished? i am confused.
Hello all! There is currently no set release date for DR. We are approximately 90% done with development and 20% done with testing. The due date here was a placeholder set by itch when this page was created.
The full game will be $10. As of the moment, we would like to have it out before the end of the year but we need to finish our initial testing before committing to any date.
I'm so excited to continue this game. I love every character and the visuals are gorgeous. I cant wait to play it over and over to date all the people. But especially Logan. Shes just my type
I'm honestly so sad this is only a demo. This is one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen, honestly. Gorgeous art, a beautiful main character, a fascinating and engaging premise. I'm really excited. I'm also very curious about the possibility of actually falling in love with your future wife, the Khan (though I am aware that's not an option)- it sounds really interesting to see what that would be like. Maybe lovely? Anyway. This is gorgeous, and I can't wait to see it come to fruition. I'm waiting with bated breath to buy the whole thing.
Honestly, it says a lot about how wonderfully you've done this that I'd honestly date more characters than you're currently allowing me to. I'd date Ona, I'd date Ellis, I'd be deeply intrigued by the possibility of what it would be like to genuinely love your bride-to-be... I'm just saying, if you ever decide to do DLCs, or other games in this same world (maybe where you play as Emery, instead, and date dudes and other nonbinary folk, I dunno, mix it up), I'd eat it up. I'm planning on following your work for the ongoing future, and I'm so excited to see what games you make beyond this one!
Gosh, I honestly can't formulate the words as to how happy this comment makes me. Thank you so so much for taking the time to leave these extremely nice messages and the team and I can't wait to deliver the final game.
As for future romance options and dlc, let's just say the future is chock full of possibilities ;)
Wow. It was great. Beautil artstyle, interesting characters, good music and interesting plot. I'm waiting for full realise. :D
This is fantastic! I'm currently in love with everyone but favouring Aine. The premise, the art, the diversity. I'm really not very good at leaving comments but I couldn't pass by without showing some love. Honestly, I'm really looking forward to seeing more of this.
This game is absolutely gorgeous! I have grown ridiculously attatched to the characters so far, particularly Logan (she is the sapphic knight in shining armour we deserve and I love her) but I also love the dynamic between Aine and Ellis, and the main character's relationships with Sophia and Jove. Everything about the artwork and writing and music is really well done, it feels like a lot of care and attention went into this. I missed that it was a demo at first and was a bit crushed when it ended, but I'll definitely be looking forward to playing the full game in the future!
Thank you so much for the kind words! We also have a feedback survey here: https://goo.gl/forms/KmV7tNDAjvgtm2Aj2. Everyone who fills it out will be entered into a drawing for a free copy of the game :D.
