And the fix is in! You might potentially have to "allow microphone use" for it to work (or at least that was something I eventually clicked that made it work). Mac is quite the operating system.
Let us know if there's anything else you run into!
i am forever in your debt also i love the game already! even though its just a demo rn the story is interesting and the character designs are beautiful goodluck!! ✨✨
Glad you enjoyed it! There's definitely a lot more VNs starting to be made in the isekai genre now, which is awesome. You'll be finding out who the RO is soon! ;)
The voice acting and the music! Oh my god this is the best voice acting I've seen for a long time on visual novels! I usually mute the voices of the character when I can, but this is clearly the end of that era lol :D
The narrative is so fun to watch, the memes and the serious plot points spread around a darker story contrasts really well! I love a moral dilemma in my isekai stories; you who are not of this world get to decide its fate? Preposterous!
Also, I'd love to buy the soundtracks on the full version release if you decide to release it here or on Steam! I usually prefer steam to see everything categorized and in one place for my games and their soundtracks, but honestly this was such a fresh breath of air that I really don't care where it is pushlished as long as I get to buy it lol
PS. I love isekai fiction. Does anyone have any recommendations? It's been a long time since I've read stuff on novelupdates, and I feel like I consume more self-insert tagged fics on ao3 then they are published hahaha I'd love some original fics like the plot of this game if anybody has any recommendations :3
Edit: I had to add before logging off for the night, I love the character designs, and they match their voice actors really well too. Will there be any character customization options for the MC in the future? I'm kind of enjoying the vibes of not even knowing the MCs gender, not gonna lie, but however you introduce MC's appearance in the narrative I think would be super interesting. Especially if MC comes to the conclusion that the isekai changed their gender/made them older or younger/turned them from a stick to muscle mommy or even that real Bronte didn't exactly fizzle out of existence :D love me some body horror if you couldn't tell kekw
Heya! Honestly a little blown away by this review - glad you're having fun with the story so far. :')
All of the music is actually Creative Commons, though most of it can't be redistributed due to licensing. We'll put up the credits list for the music in a future update. We're also planning on a "canon" appearance for MC later, too.
As for isekai recs, the team has come up with a few. Though they aren't quite the fics you're looking for, we'll likely be on the lookout for more recs in the future:
I'm in Love with the Villainess (Anime)
The Vision of Escaflowne (Anime)
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain
I love isekai, JRPGs and memes. This is what I call a real combo pfff
No, really, the demo is great. Colorful, with good art and voice acting. Very pleasant music sets the atmosphere. The memes and references made me laugh out loud. I really felt like I'm in MC's shoes, person from our world you know. Like, yeah, man, same.
And I can’t help but ask, is this a purely adventure/fantasy game, or there'll be a dating system too? I'm just a little confused and sad ngl, 'cos some of the characters are already taken... which is an... unusual for games with a "dating" theme, so.. which of them are ROs? And are they romanceable regardless of MCs gender? This all applies if the game even has a date sim system, lol. Thanks!
He definitely caught my attention! But it's very difficult to choose one. I want to get to know everyone, help them, feel them. Sounds greedy haha. And to be honest, first I want to get to know the characters better to choose my favorite, since the demo focuses more on Asher. I especially want to see Valentin's appearance!
Project lead here! Glad you enjoyed the game. Tama beat me to it, but we're planning to include at least romantic interests for MC - which is to say that we're taking player feedback and interest into account for this game and potential side projects. :')
I can't choose just one character, it's beyond me haha, but I'm definitely interested in male ROs. Gideon, Malachi, Valentin! Even without the sprite he sounds so charming, I want to know him better~ Of course, romance with Costel as a MALE MC would be hilarious, like a little ironic oopsie. But at the same time mysterious Laythe is so... especially considering their role in the plot. In short, I am definitely in team "close combat" ROs lol
haha omg, that is such an awesome idea! To introduce these characters through memes and the likes, and essentially learning who they might be! I really am looking forward to seeing more of this world and the characters!
Was already crushing hard on Tancred before downloading but I'll gladly see Asher and him getting their story, I can't romance them myself. The Princess Mononoke reference was soo freaking cute!! Very interested to see more about Brontes role, the person they really are in the original world. Also Khulan, as well as Khulan and Vesna's past relationship? Also i guess Bronte being a double agent, kinda explains why they might be on guard with Vesna, bc I was like why is our MC so distrustful and uncomfortable around her, for (imo) no reason. Also am excited to see more of the existing and teased characters like Zaya. :)
Glad you're enjoying the game and are intrigued to learn more - the team did a fantastic job! As for what's to come, we hope you'll have fun with that, too. :3
The concept of the isekaid person only knowing the context through posts and memes is very amusing, and showing us said memes makes it all the funnier!
I enjoyed playing this little demo, and I'm super intrigued by these characters. Not only are their designs lovely, but they seem to have more going on than it looks at first! I also loooove the voice acting!
This is really fun and I'm excited to see more of it!
Thanks for playing! Also, thank that one tweet (noted in the devlog) for literally inspiring this whole game haha. Excited to have you along with us for the ride! :D
this demo was such a delight! I love how all characters are voiced. the twist at the end really surprised me and definitely left me wanting more XD that was fun. can't wait to play the full game!! <3 yall did an awesome job!
Everything came together so well! I had a lot of fun playing and messing with each of the options. Everyone also did an amazing performance and I'm impressed with the voice acting.
I'm still working on the bad end though. The route guide cannot come sooner 😂
Thank ya for the beautiful work you've done on the sprites! We're working on making the bad end easier to obtain and will release a route guide then. ;)

And the fix is in! You might potentially have to "allow microphone use" for it to work (or at least that was something I eventually clicked that made it work). Mac is quite the operating system.
Let us know if there's anything else you run into!
Can i ask where i can find the another one bites the dust remix or sumn when the too cool meme appears it is very catchy for some weird reason 😭😭😭
Hi there.
That track is 'Being Alive' by TeknoAXE
In-house I called it 'Cool Laythe' for the soundtrack list, lol.
You can find it here:
i am forever in your debt also i love the game already! even though its just a demo rn the story is interesting and the character designs are beautiful goodluck!! ✨✨
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you so much! >.<
Came for the insekai- stayed for the memes! Loving it, can't wait to see more from this project.
Ah the memes got ya. Glad you're enjoying it. ^.^
I really liked This! It's a pity that such novels in the isekai genre are not made often
The voice acting and art are great, I'm looking forward to the continuation of the story!
I absolutely need to know who will be the RO👀
Glad you enjoyed it! There's definitely a lot more VNs starting to be made in the isekai genre now, which is awesome. You'll be finding out who the RO is soon! ;)
The voice acting and the music! Oh my god this is the best voice acting I've seen for a long time on visual novels! I usually mute the voices of the character when I can, but this is clearly the end of that era lol :D
The narrative is so fun to watch, the memes and the serious plot points spread around a darker story contrasts really well! I love a moral dilemma in my isekai stories; you who are not of this world get to decide its fate? Preposterous!
Also, I'd love to buy the soundtracks on the full version release if you decide to release it here or on Steam! I usually prefer steam to see everything categorized and in one place for my games and their soundtracks, but honestly this was such a fresh breath of air that I really don't care where it is pushlished as long as I get to buy it lol
PS. I love isekai fiction. Does anyone have any recommendations? It's been a long time since I've read stuff on novelupdates, and I feel like I consume more self-insert tagged fics on ao3 then they are published hahaha I'd love some original fics like the plot of this game if anybody has any recommendations :3
Edit: I had to add before logging off for the night, I love the character designs, and they match their voice actors really well too. Will there be any character customization options for the MC in the future? I'm kind of enjoying the vibes of not even knowing the MCs gender, not gonna lie, but however you introduce MC's appearance in the narrative I think would be super interesting. Especially if MC comes to the conclusion that the isekai changed their gender/made them older or younger/turned them from a stick to muscle mommy or even that real Bronte didn't exactly fizzle out of existence :D love me some body horror if you couldn't tell kekw
Heya! Honestly a little blown away by this review - glad you're having fun with the story so far. :')
All of the music is actually Creative Commons, though most of it can't be redistributed due to licensing. We'll put up the credits list for the music in a future update. We're also planning on a "canon" appearance for MC later, too.
As for isekai recs, the team has come up with a few. Though they aren't quite the fics you're looking for, we'll likely be on the lookout for more recs in the future:
Am I the only one who feels sorry for Valentin?
No - don't worry, we love him, too. Definitely going to show more of his character - when he's less frazzled - soon! ^.^
I love isekai, JRPGs and memes. This is what I call a real combo pfff
No, really, the demo is great. Colorful, with good art and voice acting. Very pleasant music sets the atmosphere. The memes and references made me laugh out loud. I really felt like I'm in MC's shoes, person from our world you know. Like, yeah, man, same.
And I can’t help but ask, is this a purely adventure/fantasy game, or there'll be a dating system too? I'm just a little confused
and sad ngl, 'cos some of the characters are already taken... which is an... unusual for games with a "dating" theme, so.. which of them are ROs? And are they romanceable regardless of MCs gender? This all applies if the game even has a date sim system, lol. Thanks!Hi there! Sprite artist here, Tamafry
You are welcome to spill which character has your eye and I will definitely make a case for you with the project lead :3
If it's Malachi, you are definitely not alone-
He definitely caught my attention! But it's very difficult to choose one. I want to get to know everyone, help them, feel them. Sounds greedy haha. And to be honest, first I want to get to know the characters better to choose my favorite, since the demo focuses more on Asher. I especially want to see Valentin's appearance!
Project lead here! Glad you enjoyed the game. Tama beat me to it, but we're planning to include at least romantic interests for MC - which is to say that we're taking player feedback and interest into account for this game and potential side projects. :')
Oh, I see! Thank you for the answer!
I can't choose just one character, it's beyond me haha, but I'm definitely interested in male ROs. Gideon, Malachi, Valentin! Even without the sprite he sounds so charming, I want to know him better~ Of course, romance with Costel as a MALE MC would be hilarious, like a little ironic oopsie. But at the same time mysterious Laythe is so... especially considering their role in the plot. In short, I am definitely in team "close combat" ROs lol
haha omg, that is such an awesome idea! To introduce these characters through memes and the likes, and essentially learning who they might be! I really am looking forward to seeing more of this world and the characters!
Was already crushing hard on Tancred before downloading but I'll gladly see Asher and him getting their story, I can't romance them myself. The Princess Mononoke reference was soo freaking cute!! Very interested to see more about Brontes role, the person they really are in the original world. Also Khulan, as well as Khulan and Vesna's past relationship? Also i guess Bronte being a double agent, kinda explains why they might be on guard with Vesna, bc I was like why is our MC so distrustful and uncomfortable around her, for (imo) no reason. Also am excited to see more of the existing and teased characters like Zaya. :)
Anyways, excited for future updates!
Glad you're enjoying the game and are intrigued to learn more - the team did a fantastic job! As for what's to come, we hope you'll have fun with that, too. :3
The concept of the isekaid person only knowing the context through posts and memes is very amusing, and showing us said memes makes it all the funnier!
I enjoyed playing this little demo, and I'm super intrigued by these characters. Not only are their designs lovely, but they seem to have more going on than it looks at first! I also loooove the voice acting!
This is really fun and I'm excited to see more of it!
Thanks for playing! Also, thank that one tweet (noted in the devlog) for literally inspiring this whole game haha. Excited to have you along with us for the ride! :D
this demo was such a delight! I love how all characters are voiced. the twist at the end really surprised me and definitely left me wanting more XD that was fun. can't wait to play the full game!! <3 yall did an awesome job!
Glad you enjoyed it - and good to know that the twist worked. Stay tuned for more! :3
is the protag female?
The protagonist is gender neutral for this demo - there will be selectable gender options in a future!
ohhh so cool! <3 thank you for the answer!
Everything came together so well! I had a lot of fun playing and messing with each of the options. Everyone also did an amazing performance and I'm impressed with the voice acting.
I'm still working on the bad end though. The route guide cannot come sooner 😂
Thank ya for the beautiful work you've done on the sprites! We're working on making the bad end easier to obtain and will release a route guide then. ;)
