Vision of Aurora Borealis

To short missing answers

Грустная история про Грилу (эльфи) и Криса (человека-фотографа), которые встретились в Исландии, короткая кинетическая новелла с отличной рисовкой и неплохим сюжетом.

First :3 The game is cool but is fast... very fast end...

I felt like this was a VN I wanted to like but couldn't. I completed it in 48 minutes, which isn't too bad considering I only paid $1.99 for it, but just about every minute of it was forgettable. The dialog feels very awkward and unnatural, the music has no fade in or out which makes the transitions feel very abrupt, the story was dull and lacking in detail, and the bond the main characters had felt so forced and unnatural. I will give it one thing, the art was awesome. I really liked all the scenary, and the girl and fox looked great... but even that falls short because there are a few 10 minute periods where you're staring at a black screen and reading dialog one line at a time. I hope the team that worked on this uses this as a learning experience, because while Vision of Aurora Borealis isn't great, it certainly isn't bad. And even though I would not recommend it, it still feels like a good beginning, and I hope they continue to make more.

This game was AMAZINGGG but short. The end literally made me CRYYY.

I'm gonna start by saying Vision of Aurora Borealis is a short story. And by short, I mean 40~50 minutes short. The pacing of the story felt fast and a little bit choppy, almost rushed at times. I can't say that there weren't any scenes for character/plot development; there were plenty. However, they were all rather short and I felt each scene had much more potential for detail. The soundtrack didn't feel nearly as dynamic and ambient as all the other visual novels I've read; this is primarily due to the long silences (that felt unnecessary at times) in sequences where the light piano BGM set the mood perfectly, and the abrupt BGM change during certain scenes of the story that could use some sort of fading transition. I really enjoyed the soundtrack itself, but I can't help but feel like it wasn't implemented to its full potential in this VN. As for the story itself, I'd call it a short, relatively open-ended speculative fiction revolving a cameraman's trip to Iceland, and a mysterious girl he meets there. I will say that I enjoyed the story very much; I decided to read it after having a bad day, and I don't regret that decision. It was the sort of light immersive escape I needed, which is one of the primary reasons I enjoy visual novels.

Visions of Aurora Borealis is a beautiful and well thought out visual novel but I wish that it were much longer. The story is one of a kind and stands out greatly from any other visual novel on Steam but it felt like there should have been a lot more between the begining and end of the game considering the connection between the characters. It is easy for the player to connect with the characters and become attached but it feels like there wasn't enough time for the characters to become attached to each other like they did. Though the game is very short and it felt like there could have been more between the begining and end the story i had no regrets in buying the game at full price. It at least felt like there was closure at the end of the game and the characters were easy to connect to on a deep and personal level due to there more natural behaviors (more so for the character Chris than Gryla). The story was emotional and the real life inspiration shows throughout much of the game. Pros: -Beautiful art that stands out from other visual novels -Simple but beautiful soundtrack that adds to the tone -Very relatable and inspirational characters -Unique story with some real life inspiration Neutral: -Would have liked some Steam cards for this one Cons: -Way too short even for a kinetic visual novel -Relationship between characters felt rushed Also recommend: ~Naricussu ~Planetarian ~Ame no Marginal ~Forgotten, Not Lost ~Season of 12 Colors ~Voices From the Sea

All I could say about this Visual novel that it's beautiful. The story is very interesting and worth reading it, but it is still a bit short. The artstyle is great. Would recommend!

This kinetic novella is nice, if a bit sad. the protagonist meets a mysterious young lady while he is out trying to find himself. They have a connection, but he is... unsure what it is. Quick and powerful as it may be, and cheap as it is... I might suggest getting it on discount. That said... there might be more coming...

Visual novel de type kinetic assez sympathique bien qu'assez limité. Il vaut son prix, ni plus ni moins. Je l'ai eu en solde à 1,99€. L'histoire et sa chute sont très sembables à celles du VN Yukibana Kira. Les +: -graphismes agréables, chara design kawaii très correct type "scandinave". -Se déroule en Islande avec un protagonist photographe, ça change un peu. -Agréable à lire, à suivre -Atmosphère générale Neutre: -le scénario manque un peu de profondeur mais il y a un effort sur l'histoire et la psychologie des personnages, ce qui n'est pas si mal pour un VN aussi court. les -: -Très court encore une fois -Gryla n'a pas de voix -Pas de cartes Steam. Dommage, il y avait moyen d'obtenir un ou deux arrières plans de profil sympas vu les graphismes -pas de trad française Enconclusion, Vision of Aurora Borealis est un Vn sympathique sans fioriture.
