wonderful and heartbreaking :)
I wish I could experience this comic, but it seems that the images are gone due to being hosted on discord and being removed.
ooo yeah sorry about that! i always meant to switch image hosts but i never got around to it ... will post a devlog in the coming days when i fix & re-upload ^_^
Having finally finished it, I have to say that this was beautiful. The urge to create your ideal reality being stronger than the urge to live is just so cathartic... It's also very inspiring to a young artist like myself, so thank you for this, truly.
should be working now!
wow so glad I stumbled upon this, it made my day! I was hooked for the entire story thanks to the beautiful writing and art!
I keep coming back to this
after reading this a few months ago - this still haunts me in the best way possible
I'm literally going to walk around like Kenshiro in Hokuto no Ken, telling people about this comic face to face. I found this by seeing my friend's rating of this on their itch.io on a whim too! It is really, really good.
This is one of my favorite things
this was beautiful and gripping, reading this was a catharsis to an anxiety in art that ill carry with me for a while!!!!!
A story so carefully and beautifully crafted. The illustrations and animations are absolutely gorgeous! You really nail the atmosphere – I felt like I was transported to a little corner of the universe when reading your work. It's the kind of work that inspires others to continue to create despite all odds!!
it is the worst. it is the worst when you so desperately do not want to think of the themes of a show, a movie, a comic, one that has a feeling that you do not wish to feel. a feeling you just dont want to let in your soul.
you touch that feeling beyond perfection, done brilliantly and uniquely, in a terrifying way. it is the kind of game i dont ever wish to play again. but i might. i don't know
you have done an amazing, amazing job. well done
thank you so much for your kind words, and for reading and resonating with my work <3
you have incredible skill as a storyteller. so much covered in so little time, this is something i will think back to time and time and time again. it perfectly captures what drives us to create in a world that drains us of our humanity
i'm glad the soul of my story could be understood as i was worried it wouldn't come across... i think so much of artmaking comes from being touched by other art... one of the most human interactions in the world i think! i very much appreciate your kind words!! thank you for reading my comic!!!
