this is such a lovely game. i really liked how the relationship between the two developed and the pacing of the story. silas is so wonderful <3 i like how much care you put into choosing his words. some parts made me squeal and others made me sob my eyes out... will definitely replay this from time to time. hope you're doing well.
This was beautifully written. I really loved the way the story progressed and how their relationship developed. I was aiming for the romantic end and I got it. It was such a delight to read! Silas's character development was amazing as well! Such a good VN!
My heartstrings just couldn't handle this game. Totally the most adorable and passionate game I have read in a long time. I really felt like I was reading a very well-written fantasy romance novel without all the smut yet it did have some saucy blush worthy pieces. Love it all around and the art work was beautiful hope you create more games and stories. You are very talented! 🌹
"My makers did not see fit to equip me with a social sensitivity chip" what a mood
Kinda bummed that I got the Bad End on first shot, disappointed that my second try locked me into the romance route with no option to say no to kissing but at least content that I got a Good ending. I do like him a lot, totally didn't keep calling him LASSI in my head... time well spent. Exploration of emotions were top notch. Thanks for the game :)
As someone who's into 'robots x reader' content, I have to say thank you for making this game :D (there just aren't enough opportunities for us to date a good android njdsniogojwj). I really enjoyed the process of Silas opening up and figuring out his emotions (that's the main reason I like 'robots x reader' content - to witness how the robot starts malfunctioning and developing feelings lol).
I played this awhiiiiile ago but I wanna give my compliments to the creator. I friggin loved it!! The transition from the android just being an Android and becoming more felt so natural and wonderful. Butterflies galore! The way these characters interact with each other and how perfect they are for each other is just umph! This game stayed on my mind for quite awhile out of so many I played and even awoken something inside me XD Awesome stuff!
the author doesn't seem to be around here anymore and that makes me even sadder than the endings of this game themselves. I wish they at least saw the amazing feedback this otome is getting even to this day.
The first ending I got was the one in which Silas sadly sacrificed himself to save the mc, I was too sad to let this be the memory I had left and I also wanted to save him so I replayed and happily got the romantic ending, I had the intention of trying the other left but. no. dan. way. in. hell, what if it's also sad? lol
I love the fact that I had so many choices, I was a little bit confused about what some of them meant, but I eventually tried one and if it wasn't what I wanted to say then I went back and chose another one that best fit what I wanted to say, so no big problem (it's probably because they were similar or because I'm not really fluent in English). I also like that Silas is a pretty well written character, the only thing that I didn't really enjoy was that the game is short, and I didn't feel like I could properly develop my relationship with Silas, my thoughts and all that would've led me to a certain ending instead of another. Of course, with this I'm not saying that This, My Soul is a game that doesn't make you feel like you're living it in first person, isn't engaging or something like that, but it doesn't give me enough time. And also of course I'm not saying that it should be 10 hours long but something like 5 hours (roughly, depending on the ending, but I guess the ending wouldn't last long) would've been better, considering my 2 hours experience when I first played. But I know that it takes a lot of time and effort to create a game like this already is, and I really appreciate and admire your work. Also another thing, I think the mc's sprite shouldn't be there because some players might not resemble it, and this in some cases could ruin the experience (this wasn't the case with me because I resemble the sprite a lot).
Thank you for creating this game, it was a really nice and emotional story, I haven't found many like this and I'm happy I played.
"the mc's sprite shouldn't be there because some players might not resemble it, and this in some cases could ruin the experience (this wasn't the case with me because I resemble the sprite a lot)"
Usually for a generic-looking MC I'd agree, but this is one of rare VNs when the MC not only doesn't look white, but looks very black. ...In light of these statistics, who'd get the galls to complain about it without looking hypocrite? Just let the nice game balalnce things a little, girl. I've got nothing against European looking MC, I put up with it without any problem, so I expect people to put up with this perfectly fine Mc as well, period. Besides, the MC is drawn beautifully, and the way her complexion contrast with the RO is just georgeous and poetic. We don't focibly have to invite others' bs into our head, y'know.
I wasn't even saying this for me, as I said the sprite looks like me, but usually I can't really fully enjoy a game when the mc is physically different than me because in my head it feels like I'm not playing as myself, it's dumb I know, but that's it. So I was thinking that the sprite shouldn't probably be there because some other people might have the same problem as me. And I don't get why I'm looking like a hypocrite to you just because I'm complaining about a black mc's sprite and not a white one, it doesn't make sense, if the differences between the irl player and the sprite can make the player enjoy the game less, then it makes them enjoy my game less, for a black player it could be the same with a white sprite, or for a white player it could be the same with a black sprite. I agree on the fact that it's drawn beautifully, I loved the art style. Hopefully I made myself clear, sorry for any grammar mistakes, I'm not really fluent in English.
This...this is a very beautiful game, and definitely cemented it's place as one of my favorite visual novels. It's short, but so beautifully written I was engrossed all the way through. I love love love the interactions between the MC and Silas, and the way they've progressed their relationship is just so natural I love it. I've only achieved the "Do Androids Dream" ending, and just like what another user said here, it was just so perfect I couldn't bring myself to do the other endings.
Thank you so much for making this game, and I'm also so glad I found this gem.
oh my god ive never reacted so intensely to one of these games holy stars this got me sO HARD. no the small moments and just- im sorry i only just ended so im still so flustered i just- thank you so much for this im gonna replay this for sure
I am sitting in my lounge with the lights off and several responsibilities in the morning that I should be sleeping for; instead I am bawling my eyes out and covered in bits of tissue roll because this story just hit something raw in me. I'll need to play again soon to figure out what it is, but I haven't had such an emotional outburst in a game since I accidentally overestimated Shadowmere's ability to jump in Skyrim.
Thank you for this. Between the art, the narration, the music, and the plot, I really found myself enjoying this story (with very red eyes) and applaud you for sharing this with us. It really made my day.
Really enjoyed this VN, Silas was great--even if I called him Lassi a lot in my head. :D Either way, it was a fantastic journey, the writing was excellent, and I loved the good ending!
I was intending on replaying the game but I got the "Do Androids Dream" ending and it was so perfect I couldn't bring myself to change a thing. Do you have a ko-fi or something people can donate to?
I did not know what to expect when I got this, but after playing I can say that it was worth it. The story was in itself very interesting and the few romantic scenes that are given are sweet and satisfying. All I'm saying is download this for sure!
This game was nice! I'd say 6/10. I'm more into absurdly long visual novel romance games that talk about philosophy, and in general, the kinda stuff art snobs and hipsters like, so this wan't my cup of tea, per say. Though, I still greatly respect the work you put into this!
Also, I know you must be sick and tired of getting these questions by now...but, what happened with Queen's Crown? I'm not mad at you for not being able to finish it, it seemed like a massive project that would take a team of 10+ people at least a year or three to finish, so I don't blame you for giving up. I am still a little sad I won't get to play the finished game, sure, but I completely understand. Though, unless I've missed something, all this radio silence really isn't good for your image. I'm not one of the people who funded it, but I think it would be best to give back the donations to the donors, if you haven't done so already, and admit that you took too much on your plate with the game, instead of just letting the DEMO collect dust. In the best case scenario- that you're still actively working on the game- at least tell your fans! If you say something now, sure, people will still be mad at you for staying silent for so long, but wouldn't that be better than things getting even worse and your fans hating you? We're not asking for you to deliver the game to us on a silver plate right this instant, we just want to know what happened, if the game is cancelled, or if we should still have hope.
I know you probably won't read this, but I figured it was worth a shot.
I didn't expected much from this game, but boy, was I wrong! It was excellent! And I managed to get the sweet ending, but now I'm afraid to try another endings, the sadness!
Also, I think my game was a little bugged, I don't remember playing it before, but after installing it, I already had unlocked 5 of 6 CGs (Is it by default?) and the Skip button acted as if everything was already "Read".
But that didn't take any enjoyment of the experience! I LOVE it, and Silas was real cutie!

i just so wished there was a DLC, maybe some epilogue/bonus story with romanced Silas...
Oh my gosh, I loved this VN so much, Silas is just so adorable, my heart! Thank you for making such a great game, I enjoyed every moment! :D

Got 2 of the 3 endings and very happy with them. I like the art and the slow build feeling.

I got the happy ending my first go-round so I think I'm gonna stop while I'm ahead lol. This was a cute, relatively short story and I enjoyed it!
i cry myself to sleep for the 3 endings and i love it, now silah is one of my confort characters

Love the game and the story is written well. It was sad but bearable

If so then I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean anything bad by what I said
Be at peace, sister. Everything, cool. Am glad you exist.

Loved the game, great writing!
A beautiful game and a beautiful story.
I need fan fiction for this novel T_T this was too good!!!
Riiight? *_*
Maybe write one?
Even a drabble... just open the ball?

Funny and with a lot of personality! I loved it, i had many big laughs. Just amazing XD.
