Hello, I am already deeply in love with this game. I was really liking Reach, so I installed this one, too! Found all the effects as well.. i don't really understand how to paint and it is the only gripe I'm having. However, the quality of this game is absolutely stunning just like Reach's. I adore your games and they have inspired me to make my own YNFG one day! <3 I also just open the game to listen to the soundtrack... I am not sure if you made it yourself, but if you ever had a 'support pack' containing the soundtrack, I would get it immediately!
Update: I figured it out haha. This game is awesome!!
;w; I'm so glad you love it!!!! My fangames are a huge passion project so it makes me feel so happy when people enjoy them!
I'm glad you were able to figure out how to paint and I cannot wait to see what kind of fangame you'll make! I wish you the best of luck!
And the music (besides the free soundtracks I found online) are composed by Nulifi!! https://nullifi.bandcamp.com/
Though I may make a concept art/ how to make a game guide one day as a support pack! Thank you again for your love for the game, it means more than you know. <3
I would buy that up!! Pls keep up the good work <33
For Elsie, this game always has such high production quality in each area but in exchange has less areas than other DDJ entries.
The game felt like a relaxing walk, there is definitely some dark narrative shenanigans building however.
Yes I did kill every NPC on sight.
While I am sad I cannot make as many worlds as I like each update for the jam, I do my best to make them as fun and lovely as possible, so I'm glad to hear your praise for the production quality.
I'm glad the tone is set well and the game is enjoyable to play and explore! I hope to deepen the lore even more during the next update.
AND THOSE POOR BUNNIES!!!!
I really like to just sit and look at the ice cubes
Thank you! It took me a whole day to render those bad boys
thank you for your effort, 24 hours well spent 🧊
I’m very confused on what to do from my point I found the shoes, golden thorns, the skirt, and the turpentine
This was so lovely!! can relate lol
Hello Saibibi,
I played through For Elise and I love it.
I would like to ask, can you allow me to translate it into Vietnamese?
I want people to know more about this game.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards.
absolutely!! Please go right ahead
Hello, my name is Pittorusu and I am a streamer on YouTube.
Sorry for my poor English.
I would like to ask you a question about "For Elise".
I would like to play your work as a live game and post it on YouTube.
Would it be okay if I stream this game being played on Youtube?
If you have any questions, please ask.
I would be happy to answer them when you have time.
I would love if you streamed it!! Please go ahead!!
Thank you very much!
I also support your future productions!
The art, the atmosphere and its little story are beautiful. I really want to see it finished.
Thank you so much, I really want to finish this game for sure
It's a very important game to me
I wanna cry
Awe why cry?
As someone who was in art school for way too many years, I find the premise of the game so relatable. When you're sleep deprived and stressed about inspiration and upcoming deadlines hallucinating like that is definitely possible! But seriously, it was fun to see your game develop over the course of the jam. Seeing someone as creative and driven as you is always inspiring to me. Your art is lovely, and you got a huge amount done this jam. The train and railway map nexus is so creative and original. (Train of thought? Is that the pun?!) The giant notebook you can walk on is also really memorable, I loved that.
One thing I'd comment on is it took me a very long time to find the manhole in the statue/rabbit garden because it blended in with the other statue bits so well. That could just be me being unobservant though. Also a couple bugs I noticed were that the first two cubes you encounter in the pink checkerboard area have incorrect collision and the gold rose painting in the studio is on a layer on top of the player character.
I'm pretty sure I found everything. That one particular event was WOW and now I'm intrigued to find out more about Amora. (I also really liked how you communicated that I couldn't bring my invisible friend in.) I really enjoyed playing and I'm excited to play any future updates!
Let me just say your comment floored me, honestly it's beyond flattering to hear that I'm someone who can be inspiring I'm so thankful that you not only played the game but also could relate to some of the experiences.
Secondly, thank you for letting me know about those bugs as I'm typing out this comment I'm fixing them up and will be releasing a new patch soon.
Thirdly, I think you're one of the first people to actually mention that particular event and just knowing it had that 'WOW' factor I wanted means the world to me.
Thank you again so much for playing my game, I want to make this one something special for sure.
The detailed art is definitely a big strength for this game, i couldn't get very far sadly because the game started a new game automatically when i played it instead of loading my save
Thank you so much, and I've actually just fixed that issue if you'd like to give it another go!
Very beautiful spritework! I also recognized a certain white-haired girl reaching for some snacks in the store.
HEHEHEHE!!
I'm so glad you like the art and I'm glad you got the reference :D!!!
The design of maps is interesting.
Thank you so much!!
;)
