i'll say this, HOLY FUCK. what i witnessed playing through my baby gabe's route...but why did i believe nikko was gonna just give me some good moments of gabe's route only. To be butt fucked into a corner and abused. im loving every moment
P.S, amazing art 10/10 would have smashed deejay, uh nikko needs to stop being absolute god at art and drawing the creepiest shit ever and making me enjoy this visual novel
This VN looks absolutely fucking amazing just based on the art and the description. So excited to play it. I really like VNs with an actual story behind them lmao
Woah just im stunned i played borrow just cause i love reptiles and I saw a shark and I'm just all for it, God was i in for some big emotional mess of a trip, I connect so much with gave on how he feels and react to my decisions I have never been so found in vn like I usually just skip a lot of stuff but I was listening in Through everything, so much talent was put into this vn and as much as I loved it I also hated it Not in a bad way mainly speaking for the traumatic events such as seeing gave dead on the Dream I panick and cried for like who knows how, then the intense pressure of leaving Gabe alone and go check on the others it made me worry for all I was so dam scare to see one of my fav cast of characters at least see one dead would make me cry for weeks istg I also better get more of Gabriel I wanted so badly to have swim practice 😢.
Music chef kiss the jazz the music that added with the backgrounds fitted perfectly, the idea of timeliness shifting the idea of the time line on the game holy shit that was my favorite the fact u added a vn where it doesn't even take place on the current time the Mc was makes me shook ofc I'm talking from gave experience i cant describe how good this vn is keep up the good work I been also doodling Gaberiel I love the shark he makes my day w8th his smile, as much as I love the game I def need the brake as it messes with my mental health a lot when it triggers my past. But I'm a ground up ^^ thank u so much for making this vn perhaps others find it more special then me and help them with their problems. I hope it isn't a long wait for another Gabriel update cause I sure do hope we get to that swimming part I BETTER SEE IT!
I love this game, ngl I was not expecting to like it so much and everytime that used to pop up on some other vn in the related game list I never really gave it a chance but Im glad that I finally did it, cuz it's really amazing! and the art it's so different and well done, I really enjoyed <3 I just have two question I know people usually find it annoying when people ask this, but I was just wondering if the mc is gonna bottom some time, cuz I was really hoping to see him bottoming but most scenes with the love interest is him topping, and the other question is about Ken, I was wondering if we choose not to have sex with jean do we loose some kind of point with him or it's gonna affect the history with him in a bad way? sorry for the long text and the broken english haha
Fr, I'm so glad I gave it a chance. I've kinda learned over the years how to find the good VNs, but I still overlooked this one until two weeks ago. I have now 100%'d the current build, which took me two weeks of spare time, but it was worth it. Rarely do I get quality AND quantity, and boy do they go together oh so well! I hope this will get increasing support as it continues, and I will spread the word as much as I can. FANTASTIC WORK
As a recovering alcoholic myself, I appreciate seeing the representation in Grey. Considering that he starts drinking again in this game (at least in some routes), I hope to see some of the consequences of that get explored a bit more.
Hiro's Japanese feels very google translate in a lot of places, but that's a less pressing concern considering most readers aren't fluent. Nevertheless, very eager to see more of Hiro's story in future updates
I love everything about this game, except a certain falling metal pipe sound effect in marks route, I heard it and my fight or flight instincts kicked in.
the character writing is impressive! everyone has a very strong voice and lots of depth. I usually simp for the big bara boys, but Hiro completely stole my heart <3.
as for the plot, this project is looking ambitious AF. Seriously. Each route seems to be working with a ton of different genres and plot threads, which is cool to see, even if it ends up a little muddled sometimes.
So, for all of the men you meet in the Golden place you eventually get the opportunity to pursue a relationship. Do we not get that option for Ken? Because even if I chose him the story makes it seem as though I'm not interested or he's more interested in Jean. Do we not get to have that option with Ken?
Yeah, I guess he is. My brother is schizophrenic and so I really feel for Ken you know? It's maybe a tad disappointing but overall I'm really happy with his route. As far as story and art style goes, this is by far the best VN I've played so far.
I've just finished Ken's route so far, so potential spoilers...
This confuses me somewhat. He's displayed interest in Grey and even asked if they should kiss, showing at least part of him wants to. Do you mean he's straight because that's what he identifies as regardless of lables people put on him, or his behaviour? Or he's straight regardless and would never want to persue a relationship with another man? I understand Ken overcoming his homophobia is a large part of his character development, and that it doesn't always have to be internalised.
Regardless, the character writing is brilliant, and I love the horror aspects!
Wait, he is? There's a few lines in the latest build that give the impression that he might have growing feelings for Grey...I'm not going to argue with the actual creator for the VN, but I do find that a little confusing.
Unless you mean "Ken certainly believes he's straight," In which case I certainly understand.
I get you, Ken is probably my favorite character and the one I am most excited for. Would kind of suck if it ultimately goes nowhere, but hey, not like there aren't other options on Ken's route...
well in the newest update he expresses interest in grey so i think he might be bi and interested in grey but is just scared about it. so i do think we'll have to opportunity to date him!
I can't stop thinking about this VN. Got to write how good it is for other people who haven't seen it yet I'm ashamed I havent read it before, I should have given a chance way earlier. But god was I lucky, I got in just right after Ken's update, the one I wanted to try first! The game is captivating, with the best designs I have seen in some time for every - and I repeat - EVERY character. I can see it has been made with intense love. I am amazed at everything that was given so much thought to come into place, the story is concise and understandable even for someone that does not speak english like myself. I'm not much of a fan of horror VN's, not because of horror itself (gore, tension, fear etc..), but because of how crude it can get during and at the end of routes. It can get brutal for the feelings. I'll try not to be expectant on this one, since it can very well have no good ending, or ''unsatisfying'' in an emotional way like other horror VN games. I'm not comparing, just making an observation I've seen nikko's work from afar for a long time, and looking at so much improvement on his creations is astounding to say the least, definitely looking too support his patreon from here on out
Also! I'm a brazillian, and I felt so amazed by the portuguese part! It's rare to find portuguese being used anywhere as one of those ''I can't get what they're saying, but it looks cool'' languages in media, not to mention characters related to my country. In furry gay visual novels? First one I've come across. Meus parabéns pela iniciativa
Will the Archives function be our album for all the CGs and soundtracks? If so, I really want to revisit all the art without having to going to old save files.
What is the significance of Grey's Ace of clubs pin? I know the suits have all had various meanings in subcultures through the 1900s and now in the 2000s. Is his pin in reference to his sexuality? Or is it a dog whistle for speakeasies? Maybe i missed it in game? For whatever reason its been bugging me cause i feel like i know the answer but i just cant think of it lol.
It's a shamrock, in the prohibition when alcohol was illegal people would use pins among other things to show that they are wanting alcohol at bootleg bars and so on. So I'm guessing that's the significance of the pin
In Mark's route, Grey touched the clover pin at the mention of his grandmother when having coffee with Simone. Maybe it was a gift from her, and also a clear symbol of his Irish heritage. In French, clubs is trèfles, which means clover.
Ive been playing the new update and "Takoda" invited us to his room, but there wasnt an option for it when night time came. Do you know why or was it not included?

Just pointing out one small detail on the game logo: why is there an arrow pointed downwards on the "O"? Is there a meaning behind it?
Gae.

I wanna fuck the marten
real
Way too real 😂
Loving this so far, can't wait for more.
As a recovering alcoholic myself, I appreciate seeing the representation in Grey. Considering that he starts drinking again in this game (at least in some routes), I hope to see some of the consequences of that get explored a bit more.
Hiro's Japanese feels very google translate in a lot of places, but that's a less pressing concern considering most readers aren't fluent. Nevertheless, very eager to see more of Hiro's story in future updates
Hiro's Japanese text has been looked over by someone and will be altered in his next update
spoiler
so will gabe have any top scenes? or is he only a bottom.
Spoiler
He kinda topped with his mouth in the video game scene lol
Can't believe I got Shrek'd like that
ok so, i know this vn wont be fully completed for a few years but istg if none of the routes end well im going to cry
I'd imagine bad and good outcomes
Gabe my sweetest boy was the first route I picked, I'm so glad he's back! Can't wait to get traumatised together
I love gabe sm 🥺🧡
I love everything about this game, except a certain falling metal pipe sound effect in marks route, I heard it and my fight or flight instincts kicked in.
It's in Hiro's route too and it used to be loud AFFFF. They lowered the volume on it now though
Amazing though I hat cliffhangers
You know it’s a good vn when my biggest complaint is that y’all are using 4 cylinder sports bike soundfiles for what are obvious v-twins lol
its not an addiction
Damn, out of every nsfw AI site, he's on c.ai
MY HUSBAND IS ON C.AI AUAGIDSGAFSDBOFHSDBHAFB I LOVE HIM SO MUCH, ABHAJBHUA I PHYSICALLY CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I NEED HIS DEEK
the way i would let gabe, mark and ken all rail me at the same time is just shocking
Let Hiro get a piece too!
hiro just smolll but if u insist
anyways how old are they all???
20s to 30s 🤔
I love every love interest except Mark bro is losing it fr
You're so real for this, I hate him and I don't know why
i love mark except for the fact that hes just a huge walking red flag
10/10, wish Grey realized he was traveling through time
Masterpiece
Great VN I love it.❤️
Could you please make gallery though.❤️
This irrelevant, but I showed my brother this game and he said I was most like Ken... Not sure how to feel about that lmao
What he spoke may true tho.
I need more of Gabe's Story ugh 😭 this is so great ❤️
I'm utterly impressed by both the characters and the art!
The characters are so fleshed out I even started giving them little voices when I read <3
the character writing is impressive! everyone has a very strong voice and lots of depth. I usually simp for the big bara boys, but Hiro completely stole my heart <3.
as for the plot, this project is looking ambitious AF. Seriously. Each route seems to be working with a ton of different genres and plot threads, which is cool to see, even if it ends up a little muddled sometimes.
excited to read more! (pls be kind to Hiro ;_;)
Hiro is definitely best boy <3

Ken is straight.
Yeah, I guess he is. My brother is schizophrenic and so I really feel for Ken you know? It's maybe a tad disappointing but overall I'm really happy with his route. As far as story and art style goes, this is by far the best VN I've played so far.
not even bi ?
I've just finished Ken's route so far, so potential spoilers...

I don't think even Ken knows what he is!!!!

Unless you mean "Ken certainly believes he's straight," In which case I certainly understand.
I honestly hope so, I don't wanna mess w/ their final vision but like.. still
I get you, Ken is probably my favorite character and the one I am most excited for. Would kind of suck if it ultimately goes nowhere, but hey, not like there aren't other options on Ken's route...
colt is better anyway :3
well in the newest update he expresses interest in grey so i think he might be bi and interested in grey but is just scared about it. so i do think we'll have to opportunity to date him!
just finished marks route and kens route. Cant wait for the new update any info on when its coming out???
The men in ken’s route are so silly, himself included. I love them all, it’s unfair having to decide between them 😭
TAKODAAAAAAAAAAAAAA RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
This VN is an absolute masterclass. Nikko, the art in this is mouth-wateringly good. Everything is spectacular.
Is anyone else having an issue with the zip?
Windows Explorer says it's empty, and WinRAR says the archive is corrupt.
I've downloaded it with Chrome and Firefox, and the official Itch.io app.
I can't stop thinking about this VN. Got to write how good it is for other people who haven't seen it yet
I'm ashamed I havent read it before, I should have given a chance way earlier. But god was I lucky, I got in just right after Ken's update, the one I wanted to try first!
The game is captivating, with the best designs I have seen in some time for every - and I repeat - EVERY character. I can see it has been made with intense love. I am amazed at everything that was given so much thought to come into place, the story is concise and understandable even for someone that does not speak english like myself.
I'm not much of a fan of horror VN's, not because of horror itself (gore, tension, fear etc..), but because of how crude it can get during and at the end of routes. It can get brutal for the feelings. I'll try not to be expectant on this one, since it can very well have no good ending, or ''unsatisfying'' in an emotional way like other horror VN games. I'm not comparing, just making an observation
I've seen nikko's work from afar for a long time, and looking at so much improvement on his creations is astounding to say the least, definitely looking too support his patreon from here on out
Also! I'm a brazillian, and I felt so amazed by the portuguese part! It's rare to find portuguese being used anywhere as one of those ''I can't get what they're saying, but it looks cool'' languages in media, not to mention characters related to my country. In furry gay visual novels? First one I've come across. Meus parabéns pela iniciativa
Fuck Ken. My homies choose to be a part of the Rub Club
Will the Archives function be our album for all the CGs and soundtracks? If so, I really want to revisit all the art without having to going to old save files.
Im just gonna say it, I fucking hate that pipe sound effect in ken's route.
there is one in mark route too, just more subtile
What is the significance of Grey's Ace of clubs pin? I know the suits have all had various meanings in subcultures through the 1900s and now in the 2000s. Is his pin in reference to his sexuality? Or is it a dog whistle for speakeasies? Maybe i missed it in game? For whatever reason its been bugging me cause i feel like i know the answer but i just cant think of it lol.
It's a shamrock, in the prohibition when alcohol was illegal people would use pins among other things to show that they are wanting alcohol at bootleg bars and so on. So I'm guessing that's the significance of the pin
In Mark's route, Grey touched the clover pin at the mention of his grandmother when having coffee with Simone. Maybe it was a gift from her, and also a clear symbol of his Irish heritage. In French, clubs is trèfles, which means clover.
Almost wish Grey wore more so the other guys could have more stages of undress.
... Is everyone getting sub-routes?
*SPOILER WARNING*
Ive been playing the new update and "Takoda" invited us to his room, but there wasnt an option for it when night time came. Do you know why or was it not included?
Same thing happened to me too, i figured I miss some other dialogue choice prior 🤔
Me too maybe we missed some dialogue, I was really intrigued to find out if Takoda's route would save them. (I'm Insanely obsessed with that bird ngl)
