Star-Crosst

Game is alittle short, but it has good art, actual voice acting, and a soundtrack. Pretty high quality for the visual novel genre. [b] The game is rather melancholic. [/b] Lots of questions about what does one do with their life after major events. At the start of the game a major decade long war has ended and everyone is celebrating. But what do you do next? Do you find love among your friend group? Do you continue going to school? Do you even want to complete your major now that the war is over? [spoiler] And it turns out your mom isn't returning from the war. [/spoiler] The whole game expertly captures being a young adult in an uncertain world. Most people will struggle with purpose and big questions in their lives. This game is one of those stories and its worth exploring. Life can be uncertain, awkward, and beautiful.

The game is definitely worth checking out. Short but quite impactful, humorous and uplifting. I personally hope for an update, dlc or such to add more choices and to expand on the story. Looking forward to what LunaticMoon will make in the future.

В целом годная новелла. В начале даже можно выбрать пол главного героя (аватарки различаются), так что история может стать и лесбийской (но сексуальных сцен в игре нет - вообще и совсем). Три девчули с которыми можно встречаться (и заставлять в себя влюбляться) и общий (условно двух видов) конец - неважно с какой пассией, которую влюбил в себя, ты на него возьмёшь. Хороший рисунок персонажей и общий дизайн (ощущается как нарисованное от руки), похоже на аниме 80-ых, в общем смотреть на них приятно (даже на ящерку - она тоже симпотная). Анимаций нет (совсем, вообще, нигде) - все изображения статичные, но даже это я не запишу в минус. Как и то что игра сделана на Unity (ужас, кошмар), получилось без косяков. Обещанные озвучки (в трейлере и описании) персонажей оказались обманом - лишь некоторые сюжетные разговоры озвучены, а в остальные 99% времени голосов нет, а только звуковые эмоции (но в целом тоже приятные), у трёх тянок реплик не будет совсем, а только три мужских и одна женская из прошлого. Руководства к игре нет (как и русификатора), поэтому думал не справлюсь с выбиванием идеальной игры, но все достижения были выбиты без посторонней помощи (но всё равно не так уж это просто, так как ветвистость диалогов средняя и судя по низким % получения и темам в обсуждениях не у всех получалось выйти на нужные).

Short but Good. Not the type of game I play usually, or a game made for me but I still liked it regardless

This game could be for you if you might be feeling a bit uncertain about your place in life and what might be coming next. It's not a masterpiece of a visual novel, and that's fine. I enjoyed my time with it. When the biggest critique is that I'd like the game to be longer and expand more on the characters and world, I'd view that as a recommendation.

a short emotional story with great voice acting and greater writing. "A genial countenance... entrenched in contusions.../... A smiling face... Covered in bruises." 10/10 genuinely one of the best reading experience i've had in my life.

Full disclosure, I did a lot of QA testing for this game (hence my inflated play time) and have an old personal friendship with the project lead. That said, I'd like to think my recommendation is still genuine; all the characters are exceptionally well written, with a lot of depth and thought put in to the background of the world, all of the characters have their own believable motivations and world view, and the game features plenty of memorable moments and quotes, and some surprisingly heavy-hitting questions I wasn't expecting from a future space dating VN. The game is relatively short owing to its nature as a VN, but it is worth playing through multiple times to see everything everyone has to say. The voice actors also knock it out of the park, which adds a lot of extra weight to the heavier emotional moments presented through the story.

Well, it was a nice read. The only thing that I disliked was the time jumps. Every path accelerated a bit too fast, especially with the one-year jump, I would have liked a bit more before that. Okay, I have two more, I think, kind of. There were some inconsistencies, they were few, but they were there, and I disliked a bit the choosing part, where answer possibilities get revealed. Not a fan of that. But all in all, I had fun with it, had some laughter and the sad points were really good I really could feel with them.

so far im having fun with it the story line and dialogue between characters is better than i expected the voice acting is good. All the characters are unique and different. All in all Shy you did really good as the creative director for this nice job.

Enjoyed the simple nice story!
