OH GOSH I LOVED THIS VERY VERY MUCH.
I downloaded it to make sure I wouldn't have any glitches heheh. But what absolutely lovely story GOD. I felt it very deep within my heart. I'm in love with the way you push the story back -- to question what so much of the story has instilled into our heads as "the right way for love to happen" even since we were kids. That somehow a "kiss" is the ultimately and sole way that we can show love to someone else (and then of course to go even further, some would then say that sex and creating a family is the continuation of that love and how things should be, too).
The prince's confused soliloquy was so well done. I really enjoyed how much conflict you could hear behind his words -- the fact that he does love her so much, and he believes that there's only one way to wake her up, but he can't give that to her without sacrificing so much for both of them?? It packed a lot of punches into each line and was so poetic and well written. And absolutely fantastically voice acted GOD!! I was really moved by the performance of some of the lines, particularly when the prince got very emotional. It was incredibly poignant and lovely.
The art fit and GUI fit so well with the tone -- a storybook/fairy tale ambience, yet, the prince is feeling pressured to do something that's not HIS fairy tale. That's not HIS happily ever after. Despite what the environment would have you think. And the music was gorgeous!! Both beautiful but melancholy, the same as the game itself.
Of course I chose not to kiss her at the end and was very pleasantly rewarded (perhaps not surprised -- maybe a part of me did hope that's what would happen, but I also wasn't entirely sure that's what WOULD happen ldakfjdl). It was such a nice ending to everything and I felt really... I don't know... at peace?? Once it was over??
Just wonderfully done. I really really enjoyed this!!! 🥰💕
