Invisible Wings: Chapter One

This is a very promising start. There are a number of hooks to make me want to come back when the game's fully released. The visuals work well and the music is serviceable (to be enhanced in the future). The cherry on top for me is the voice acting though. I know it can be expensive, but it elevates the whole game (especially emotional scenes like the beginning), so I really hope this carries over into the full version.

Don't get me wrong. I loved this game BUT it's still a DEMO. And as I already played before in the lasts steam events - It was very disappointing...! (I really should've suspect when it said "released for free")

It has fairies, which is great, but it also find the story to be very personal and resonating. It's a sweet little game with a lot of charm!

7/10

Very interesting concept, and I really like the fact that there's actual voice acting lol. Prejudice is a wild thing to explore, and I think this is a creative way to do it. I look forward to getting the full game! :)

So, this is clearly meant to be a demo, and I'll review it as such. No idea why this is tagged as LGBTQ—I'm sure they might intend to have LGBTQ content in the full game, but there's no indication of it here, so that's misleading. (There are no romantic or sexual relationships, and nobody's LGBTQ identity is referenced.) The premise is solid, and the point-and-click segments have potential (though it's irksome that some but not all of the items have multiple lines associated with them, the visual indication of exhausted dialogue remedies this somewhat). I just don't feel like the story really coheres? We start with a choose-your-own infodump as an introduction to the setting, which gave me a hard time keeping track of what I was supposed to know, and then the characters felt confusing, like I was meant to have certain opinions about them but they didn't actually convey those. Aranea is a one-note Mom Friend, Lilith is weirdly narcissistic but treated like she's supposed to be sympathetic, [spoiler]openly cheating in competitions and then acting like she wins fair and square[/spoiler], and Dawn was erratic—not unstable, just, what [i]was[/i] her personality supposed to be? She sympathizes with faeries and then hates them, blames the right person for the wrong reasons, and then 180s her opinion on a dime. That being said, I'm choosing to recommend this, because I would either be weakly recommending for or against, and I don't feel like some of the negative reviews on this are for the right reasons. (tl;dr they're mad it's a demo.) As it's a demo, there's still time to change all the things I've mentioned, and I've certainly come across worse writing from full-length, published VNs.
