Memento of Spring

Memento of Spring is, at it's heart, a good VN. It's funny, the art is pleasant and varied, the music is good enough to just leave on and do background tasks to. The story is simple enough: There's a 12 year old magician with a serious attitude problem who ends up going on a journey. That's the concise way to put the entire thing. While cute and charming, I found that dialogue seemed to run on and on. I would say that 80% of the dialogue is spent talking about how much of a glutton Juliane is. That sounds like I'm overestimating but if I am, it's only by a little. the humor loses a lot of it's impact when you keep having the point hammered into you over and over again. Beyond what I consider a repetitive way to conduct dialog, this is one of the better visual novels I've read through. The end even left me yearning for a sequel though given how scant any information on Bright Onion Studios is, I feel it'll never come. Check it out. Even when it's not on sale, I consider it time well spent.

Bueno, creo que ya va siendo hora de este análisis. Memento of Spring es una Vn de duración media tiene como protagonista a una niña malcriada llamada Juilane. El juego se nos presenta en un mundo fantasioso compuesto solo de mujeres [spoiler]¡Vivan las waifus! [/spoiler] en el que reina la comedia y pseudotranquilidad. [spoiler] No recuerdo como hacer un análisis largo que este bien así que iré a lo crucial.[/spoiler] -La historia está enfocada en la rubia con orejas de gato que vemos en la capturas, aunque desde la visión de un tercero. La idea en si no está mal, pero de vez en cuando se siente que nuestro personaje está ahí por estar. No hay sobresaltos, es todo humor y parodias, sobretodo con la nekomimi protagonista que es la que mas personalidad tiene. Es básicamente como cualquier "slice of life" que puedas imaginar, aunque en el caso de esta novela, se nota como en ciertos puntos, en la manía de la alargar las horas de juego, se hace larga y pesada llegando a pensar "Vaya, podía haberme saltado todas esas lineas inútiles que no hacen más que de relleno". Por suerte esto no ocurre mucho. -El dibujo como se puede ver es bonito, fundamental en una VN. Un dibujo bonito no tiene porque ser extravagante o hiperrealista, solo conseguir que se vea bien, y esta novela lo cumple, algo que muchas VN de las que se venden en steam no pueden hablar. Quizás le hacian más CGi´s para las horas que quiere llegar a conseguir, llegando a ser algo repetitivo. -La música al igual que la historia está creada para tratar de relajar al lector. Esta compuesta por piano únicamente, de manera bastante bien lograda diría yo, llegando a ser parte crucial de la novela. -- Y ahora, después de historia, música y arte, llega el juicio final... Memento of spring cumple en entretener y relajarse, es perfecta para días largos en los que necesites, como he dicho hay partes en las que se hace pesada, esas partes son las que le quitan gran encanto a esta novela, pero no por eso hace que sea una experiencia de la que simplemente dirías "meh". Por todo esto mismo creo que está bien darle a este análisis un Si, y de está formar darle el pequeño reconocimiento que este juego merece,

A very cute, kinetic, slice-of-life visual novel, great for readers of all ages. Plenty of length in the story with a fun atmosphere that keeps you going. The music fits very well with the story and the characters are all ones you will love and be invested in. Momento of Spring is worth the price and gives you a joyful experience with a plot that is appealing and easy to follow. For their first visual novel on steam, Bright Onion Studios has proved they are competent and know how to deliver a wonderful game. I look forward to more visual novels coming from them.

Eh. I feel like I might have liked this when I was an edgy teenage girl, constantly plotting world domination with my friends. Completely wholesome, no adult content (except occasional references to death/murder/world domination). The story goes: confusing and slightly annoying - confusing but potentially interesting - funny - tedious - aggravatingly tedious - hopeful that the end is coming - annoying - tedious - mildly interesting - starting to get tedious again - urgh when will this end - wait was that really the end? Phew. - no wait, it wasn't. - oh look the real end, that feels even less like the end! Honestly it should have ended by achievement 8. After that point it just becomes stalling and padding. Not that it doesn't have some amusing moments after that point of course. But I don't think it was really worth reading after the apple-lanche. Spoiler alert; the obnoxious brat doesn't grow as a person, but her prescence is watered down later in the story when there are 5-6 other characters around to help reduce how much screen time she gets. But then it amps up again when the number of characters drops back down. And at the very end I think we're supposed to feel like she's changed or something?

Lenghty. Not mind shattering story, but decent enough to keep it interesting. Recommended.

I found this charming, though I'm sure the sort of humor in this won't land with everyone. The first chapter is honestly kindof boring. The second one confused me a bit. Then it starts moving, and while the story isn't uniquely original or anything, it's pretty well done? especially considering this is dirt cheap, and was on sale when I got it. It is kinetic, so warning there, but give it a shot. It's cute for what it is. Also decently long for being like. $1.

This is one of the most ridiculous, hilarious things I've ever seen. Somewhat slow start, but after that, every fifth line makes me giggle.

This VN is actually a comedy. You won't be able to read 3 sentences without a joke being thrown, so don't expect a serious story. The English writing, which is the original language, is good. I've barely seen any mistakes. However, the storytelling is first timer level. This VN is ludicrously long winded and slow paced. It gives the impression of a homework being artificially inflated with words to meet a quota. This 12-15 hours VN could've been written to be a 3 hours VN and only gain in quality from it. The characters are not believable humans. It has a lot to do with them only trying to joke or be funny with sarcasm, but also their complete nonsensical decision making and thought process. We are sadly stuck "being" the worst character (Lily) for the vast majority of the story, The ending is incredibly unsatisfying. It's what cemented my decision to leave this negative review. Why set a story in Japan purposefully but not have characters use honorifics? The dev/writer has potential, but they need serious work on the basics of story telling, and they need some proof readers to help cut off the massive amount of useless fat. I think with more experience they can one day release something quite good. For this one, I cannot recommend anyone spending money on a VN like this when there are so many masterpieces on Steam and other stores.

A interesting game concept as its a mixture of reading a light novel but you have art cg to go along with the story. A game recommended if your a casual and want to enjoy a story. However i did feel a bit disappoint there was no player interactions thinking as a visual novel game but that was me overlooking the genre. I still look forward to seeing the potential from the developers as it takes alot work in progress. Music 9/10 Character Art 7/10 Story 8/10

It's impossible to overstate how much I love this game, with its hilarious dry sarcasm and tongue-in-cheek humour. An isekai (in both directions), it's criminally underrated. Wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommended.
