Best. Curtain. Simulator. Ever. I should know, I worked on them, I made sure they were responsive.
I came for the visuals and stayed for story-telling. The dialog is surprisingly funny and not afraid of being edgy in today's world. Great humor. It's a simple and tight visual novel complemented by excellent (and unusual) characters. Overall, all of the elements come together nicely for a hilarious story and captivating world.
Bravo! Best theatrical performance ever! What an ending lol love the change in fonts and wild characters

Had a blast with this. It’s like stepping into a medieval storybook, but the game keeps poking fun at itself the whole way thru. The little gags actually made me laugh, and the art style is super classic... it reminds me the old Flash animations. Feels both nostalgic and fresh at the same time. Big recommend!

ugh no honestly came back thru to replay for the achievement I missed, this is a scam/cash grab and whoever made it has no respect for anyone who'd play it. I was right to be so hostile in my original negative review, and a coward to have back peddled just because I felt bad they realized they couldn't charge 15 USD for something not even worth the 5 USD it's asking for now.
