This is our 1st visual novel ever... so every feedback is gold for us!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We have a lot to improve and this experience has teach us a lot.
You really got me there.
Well done. Well done.
Btw. I noticed that a music theme ends up too abruptly and a new one starts. While this happens on a story change (so it's thematically correct), the feel is too unnatural. Maybe prolong the fade-out/fade-in time? Don't know.
Other than that, nice novel. :)
To be honest, I didn't find the story that interesting, but I'm guessing that's because you didn't have enough time to flesh out the characters and plot points. Like, I really do like the idea and the "twist," and the writing wasn't bad; I just think it went by too quickly, so I couldn't really get into it. If you expanded the story a bit (maybe include some foreshadowing to make the player wonder what's really going on), I could see myself really enjoying this.
A small complaint: There were quite a lot of typos, which took a little away from the experience, but obviously this is not a big deal and is easy to fix.
Overall, nice work!

...rather dark game of one girl's make-believe fantasy in troubling times. Though the, "in your dreams" was a bit too blunt; I thought the fading background in the good ending was enough to convey that. I did like that that bad ending was oddly ambiguous on whether the war against the mouse lead to the grim decay depicted in the ending, or the ending was the reality the poor girl lived in, and everything else was a fantasy (the good ending clarifying that ambiguity was a nice touch). The contrast was pretty cool, though admittedly not that big of a surprise.
Oh yeah, and no morality meter anywhere in sight is a good thing in my book. Though the morality on each action you could take was comparably more ambiguous on which side of the scale they were on. Wasn't too detracting, though.
Would have liked to see a skip button, since I ended up choosing mostly the same options in subsequent playthroughs.
