walk in the sun

I just remembered how I played this a long time ago and have never commented until now-- This game is AMAZING, considering how it's probably the very first game from itch I played... Adore the art style, the tension, even the visuals! The definition of "underrated".

hell yea lesbians :3

i had goosebumps from the first radio broadcast and they never went away.

- are they lovers?

- worse

hi this game has been rotating in my head for literal weeks now. 

first off the atmosphere of the entire game is so tense, which really adds to the overall suspense. like i dont think i could look away even once wondering what might come next and taking in every detail. (love the fact her class is studying romeo and juliet btw lmao)

claire ruins me. overall both characters are really well realized despite how short the VN is. but the complete sacrifice of self, how she personally feels, her interests, and more all in pursuit of someone else who she idealizes...good. the burning the memory into her mind and the part about how despite whats about to happen all she can focus on is how close physically they are...i might go insane. (side note: love that the gay experience is so similar...shared pain bc ive had the scene in her room with the toys happen to me back in school with a girl i liked LOL so that scene really hit me, definitely my favorite. really contrasts them well tyty)

god i have more to say but id literally be here all day and ive already screamed to you once. it ends perfectly as well, perfect moment to cut. thank you for making this !!

i discovered and played this after this was cited as an inspiration fur a VN i was following!

that was a really neat expurrience!! i loved the art style, the usage of things being censored/blocked out, and the repetition of the choices- i really felt fur claire the whole time, all the anxiety and doubts...

i think my favorite was the scenes where claire was trying two burn a memory intwo her head- i deal with a lot of dissociation so i have two burn memories intwo my head like that often! it just feels very... human! that, and "if i acknowledge it, that means it's true, and i don't want it two be true"...

i despurrately wanted meowre when it ended, though it was meowstly beclaws i didn't quite fully understand what exactly happened that was making claire so antsy abt "what happened on tuesday"? i assume she killed someone, but i dont know fur certain and i suck at reading in between the lines ehehe...

i'd really love two read meowre of yewr works if yew efur decide two make meowre!! 

WOW

This was a very engaging read! There are so many little details you can pull from Jamie and Claire's mannerisms, Claire in particular is very well rounded and intriguing. The filtered backgrounds also do the overall atmosphere a huge favour. I def wouldn't mind reading a longer version of this.

First and foremost, I love the visual styling of this VN.  The font, the interface, the portraits, the CGs and effects applied thereto—all of it is airtight, heheheh.  The effect near the beginning during the roll call scene especially is a nice touch, as is the red static effect.

Second, the use of auto-advancing text for interruptions and racing thoughts in particular is quite well executed, I feel.  I'm partial to using that effect in the same way in my own works, so it made me smile to see it here and to see it done so adroitly, heheh.

And last but certainly not least, the character writing really shines in this VN.  Jamie and Claire alike are vivid, believable, and strongly developed, and the minor & off-screen characters are solid, too!  Indeed, the codependency is almost TOO realistic, heh.

All of that is to say, excellent work, Becky~  I'm very eager to see what you make in the future!
