Starlight of Aeons

This game has 2 trojan virus warnings marked as "severe" when I try to launch it. Steam wouldn’t even let me play the game at first without making me mark the files as safe, i’m still unable to launch the game directly through the steam launcher. The dev says these are false positives, but these warnings come from some of the biggest anti-virus protectors. It doesn’t feel safe. It’s been a known problem on the community board since 2017 that was never patched. I've never had a steam game with this issue, it feels sus to me.

Heyo! Since this Visual Novel was pretty short and I don't wanna spoiler anything as usual, this review will also be kept short but I still wanna put my opinion together. First of all a major point I found somehow weird but got used to quickly is the fact that this novel only supports chinese as voice acting. I'm not saying that chinese is a bad language but if you read alot of Novels or/and play alot of anime or JRPG games you are 100% used to japanese audio. Which I just now expirienced first hand is really different from chinese audio, hence I had to get used to it. Even tho it was a first time chinese novel for me I really enjoyed the voice acting after overcoming the "first time weirdness" since the voice actors really put alot of emotion in the important parts of the dialogue. So it was enjoyable nontheless. The music is also really good. For my own taste it felt as there were to less individual OSTs but since the novel is short that was also bearable. Don't get me wrong the music really fit in perfectly and added alot of emotion to it but with not alot of variety of different songs they kind of get repetitive. But as I said it wasn't bad in any way since it was overall enjoyable. CG's, character art and background art both were on point and great. While the models of the characters weren't anything special the drawn pictures surely were and had their own magical touch and feeling to them. Really good. It was also a great variety between bland cold hospital rooms all the way to dreamland colorful awesomness. The story was also really great even tho I gotta admit it felt just a little bit confusing. I could imagine the english translation is a little bit to blame, even tho it was good it had some minor spelling errors here and there but really nothing to much. Like a total of 5 words maybe? Still it's hard to tell a story without giving alot of info, then repeating the story from a different perspective with more info that wasn't given before but also only really works because of the different perspective and then add a third story to it that even had the DISCLAIMER that it hasn't anything to do with the first two stories but is more or less exactly like them or going hand in hand with alot of details. It just gets confusing. What I wanna say is that the story was great. REALLY GREAT. It just could have been a little more fleshed out or more precise at some points. The overall theme to the story and the message to it is plain amazing tho. Big thumbs up for that! As I said I won't spoiler anything so I didn't say anything besides that it's great haha but more is left to find out on your own. Thanks for reading and let me say that I definitely recommend this game! PS.: Apparently the review wasn't as short as I thought xD Sorry ~ Lena

before i start, the game is safe. the trojan warning is a false positive. my only concern... is the 5 year age gap (11 and 16) between the protag and love interest??? WHAT????? i am so disappointed,,, but then again im only here for the cute background lol

Super short, but incredibly good story, and beautiful game. Great CG art. I liked how you could unlock the rest of the game for that feeling of progression. 3rd story you unlock is neat but definitely repetitive. I'd still recommend playing through it however cause you do get extra insight into the story. I somehow didnt unlock all the content CG and achievements wise with a game that has no choices but do plan to play through all 3 stories again and see if something changes. Thats a good thing! I have malware bytes and it never popped up anything to avoid me from playing and I dont believe Valve would allow something like that to be greenlit and accepted if it were actually harmful.

完蛋 背景忘记买了 一看停售了 点数商店也没了天塌了

I am here just for the wallpaper, i do not like anything about the game.

Decent writing. Decent characterisation. Stunning artwork and voice acting. Wait. Wait. She's... [spoiler]Oh god. She's 11? and he's 16? oh no no. I see, that was the past it's now her, her 12th birthday? What? He said he fall in love with her as soon as he saw her. That's it, I'm calling the loli police. [/spoiler] So yeah. it's great if, you know, you can look past the [spoiler]gradually more and more unsettling age gap[/spoiler] then it's fine? You know. It's like Hannibal Lector. What a great psychiatrist and role model, as long as you forget he's literally a cannibalistic sociopath. 10/10 thumbs up.
