i wanted to play song of knightroid after reading shep's tumbl post about their machine love cover with iku (youtube),, i love both iku and riyona so i look forward to it,,, i have to run it through wine i hope it will be alright

holy shit omg ok,,, that was so beautiful waht teh fuck,,,, my life has been changed,, taht really was so good though what the hell,,, i want to praise the art for one; the models all looked amazing, the difference between the real ones and the game ones was unreal, and on that note i love their designs so so much too,, how they mirror and contrast their canon ones,, the renders were so beautiful and intimate and had so much emotion behind them,,,,,
the different mediums all work together so well it was such a pleasure to witness,, the pixel art the models the inclusion of the programs the screen recording the rpg the illustrations the music the videos the ui the incorperation of their offical art, i feel thankful to have been able to play it,,
i loved the dialouge the conversations between iku and riyona felt so comfortable and natural and like god i was intruding on something personal,, they so clearly love eachother so much, and it was so emotinal,,,,
i had to replay it to see more of the starting village, as i spent so long dicking around that i missed a lot of it,, and then i just got engrossed in playing again,,,
i jumped at the part where, the screen went dark, despite fully expecting what came since appearing in that area,,
the text sequence towards the end hit really hard it was really good,,,
this was amazing i loved the metaphors and i lvoed how direct it was too and just oufhh,,,, i recommend it,,,,, i dont know how to put my thoughts into words, i dont know what to say, this was just very good and i had tears in my eyes,, wonderfully written piece of art,,,

it seems to have ran just fine through wine also, or at least nothing stood out ot me as an issue,,
