Oooh boy, For the entirety of this VN, I've been calling Tenoch, Jenoch. Silly T's and J's looking so similar because of the font. Anyways, this VN was an excellent read. I hope to see more of Vekad soon. Cheers!
Thanks for the compliment! I guess you'll have to take your time getting used to his real name now. And when it comes to Vekad, you'll be seeing more of him very soon!
Hi guys! Firstly, I ADORE this VN, it's one of my absolute favorites. Secondly, I don't know whether you've already answered this but.... ARE YOU GUYS PLANNING ON ADDING GILLIANT's route? It'd be perfect!!! I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to playing his route! Anyway... keep up the great work, you guys are the best OwO
Edit: Just wanted to add that the English translation sounds really natural and that I'm super grateful to the translator :3
As for Gilliant, we did think about giving him a route at some point but we changed our mind for multiple reasons. It would have been a lot of work, on top of the fact that the way he interacts with the bunny would have been too redundant next to the other routes.
Woah I certainly didn't expect that drama.😅 I have already said it but I want to say it again that you are doing a really great job and how much I love your work. ❤️ Patiently waiting for upcoming updates.
But I've a question: what's going to be the number of chapters on each route?
Usually i only doing the route of character that i really like, but its the first vn that i planning to doing all route for all the available characters (akhet left). Its just showing how amazing youre creating the story of each route.
Hey, thank you so much! We always give our best to write all the routes, we think every character should bring something to the story, so we are more than happy to hear you appreciate them all!
I just have to say I started reading this the other night and I'm absolutely loving it so far, and as some people have pointed out I absolutely love how completely differently each of the routes ends up being I'd say my top two so far have gotta be Akhet and Maelbjorn they are just such a joy to see with their dynamics with Erik, fantastic work!
I’m sooo enraptured by the story! Omg 😁 it’s taken so many twists and turns to get to this point, and it only seems to get better with each update! 😌
I especially love how different each route is 😊 There was one point - I think it was at the end of chapter 7 - where I had no idea how all these different things could tie together, but as the story progresses, I find myself more and more impressed by just how much planning went into it 🙂
Great job, seriously 😃 Chapter 8 was absolutely awesome 💜
Thanks a lot for the nice words! It's also thrilling for us to be able to reveal this story to you bit by bit, and we hope you'll enjoy it right to the end, as we've just reached the last arc!
I am having a great time reading this story so far!!! I am so glad that I started reading this!
The only suggestion that I have is maybe altering the grey borders around the text, I feel as it makes the words appear more blurry which causes a bit of strain on the eyes, maybe at least for the "Open Dyslexic" and "Base" font settings as those are often used by people who have vision impairments and dyslexia!
Also I have a question about why Sven using a brand to make his voice sound good is cheating, while Akhet using his brand is not. (Still hate sven tho :P)
For the font, we'll take a look at it but I can't promise anything as we've already tweaked it quite a bit to make it readable on a wide variety of backgrounds (the grey border is necessary to make it stand out on a light background for example). So, we're going to give it a try, but I can't give a 100% guarantee that we'll come up with something that works for everyone.
And to answer your question about Akhet's brand, the difference is that this sweet bird uses his own brand to modify his music and he does so openly, whereas Sven uses someone else's without disclosing it, to make people think he's better than he really is.
Thank you for responding and taking it into consideration! After having played, the text did start to get a bit easier on the eyes, so maybe it was just a matter of me needing to get used to it!
Ohhhh ok! I assumed that it was something along those lines, but I just wasn't sure! I just finished Vekad's route (love him so so much) and wow was it really good! I can't wait to see more:))
I am eager to see how everyone in Frostfang is reacting to Erik and Vekad being gone. Will we see what they are thinking and what they plan to do about it? Especially Akhet and Maelbjorn. That is what I really want to see in Vekad's route.
I personally am excited, one thing I love about VNs about in general is the humane interactions, the way people see other people. It'd truly be awesome to see.
Probably my favorite VN currently -- the writing is engaging, the plot is interesting, and the characters are for the most part phenomenal. However I noticed a lot of typos in the English script; are there possibly any plans on to hire an editor or otherwise have someone go through the script and fix/point out any mistakes they see? While it is not a very big issue, I think it might still be worth dealing with at some point. Additionally (although I forget where exactly), I noticed a continuity issue where the main character references the priest acting as his teacher in Tenoch's route, even though this does not actually happen.
Hey, thanks a lot for the compliments! It's already been a few builds for which we've had two editors review the scripts, so hopefully you'll see some improvement in the latest versions, and we still need to rework the intro, partly because I've improved my translation skills since then, even if it's still not perfect (I wish it were)!
It's also very possible that there's a continuity problem as there are parts of the routes that are common, so we may have missed the necessary changes for that part of Tenoch's story, we'll take a look at that!
Ah I had noticed that some of the later available chapters had a lot less typos and misspellings than the previous chapters and the prologue, so I am glad this is already something that was being addressed, and in which case I apologize if bringing up the fact that I noticed those issues may have been unnecessary!
This vn is getting better and better with each update. Also I loved the beautiful vocals in the songs. I love all the 4 routes with our four love interests with unique personalities.
Though, there's a tiny problem that I experienced in the android version. The font doesn't seem to change from 'opendyslexic' to any other since last update. Kindly check this issue.
Thanks for the kind words! As for the android problem, we are currently working on a solution since it appears that multiple people have that exact problem.
Unfortunately, as we said in our previous devlog, this is something inevitable following the implementation of the new UI. You should be able to skip all the text you've already read pretty quickly once you've started a new game! Really sorry for all that.
If you set a default value for uistyle it will prevent this. Adding "default uistyle = 0" at the start of script.rpy solves it for me and allows me to use all my saves, but perhaps another value would be more appropriate.
There might be a nuance to it I'm not aware of. There's some conditional code based on what client people are using which would probably make a universal solution take a bit more. But in a nutshell, defining a value for uistyle at load up seems to be the crux of the issue.
So, to answer quickly: we didn't implement this solution simply because I didn't know it was possible. The NeveN team doesn't have a dedicated coder at the moment and, although over time I've started to learn how to do more complex things, I'm still a beginner at it and it takes me a while to do anything that's a bit difficult. I've been working on this UI for over six months and, to be honest, once I got it working I didn't really dare change things too much for fear of crashing something that works, despite losing the saves. I may try to implement this solution for the next build though, see if it works.
I am soooo very invested in each of the branching routes! 😯 Omg, it’s like, xou know when xou watch a really good TV series and are left anxiously excited for the next episode? That’s how NeveN makes me feel~ 😌
Xou guys are doing a TRULY amazing job 😁 I’m normally pretty good at deducing plots and predicting outcomes, but Ive been left pleasantly surprised with each route, in fact, I was so anxious with Vekad’s last update, coz I had absolutely NO idea where the story was going! 😅 I was literally on the edge of my seat
Thank xou so much for sharing this story with us and all the hard work put into creating it 💜
It makes us incredibly happy to know that we're capable of giving these kinds of thrills! And believe us, things are only just starting to get exciting! ;)
Although it was considered as a possibility, we no longer intend to create a specific route for Gilliant. However, he will remain an essential character in NeveN and will no doubt have a few side stories dedicated to him!
We are more than happy to hear that! It was an important turning point for Vekad's route, so we wanted to make it special, and it looks like it reached its goal!

But I've a question: what's going to be the number of chapters on each route?
Hey, it's always a pleasure to have this kind of feedback! :)
As for your question, each route will have 12 chapters!
I'm glad to know we still have a bunch of ways to go! I wouldn't want it to be over soon :3

Can't wait for more Akhet :3

Vekad's route isn't over, so maybe you'll get to see that eventually

This VN is honestly phenomenal. I love the entire cast of charactersss I can't wait for more! :3
Thank youuu! There will be more very quickly! :D
Fantastic!! I especially love Akhettt ugh I can't get enough of his and Eric's dynamic!

would like more choices and more explicit scenes and sprites. But that's just my opinion
Yayy new update 😁

If this was the actual solution and they gave up on old saves then i'm a bit disappointed

Hello, I'm really liking the vn, guillian is my favorite character from what I'm reading, I wanted to know if he has a route?
Hey there, sadly, no route for Gilliant!
Oh, too bad, the idea won't even be considered in the future? If so, I will have to follow the route of my dear falcon.
Although it was considered as a possibility, we no longer intend to create a specific route for Gilliant. However, he will remain an essential character in NeveN and will no doubt have a few side stories dedicated to him!
The latest update is sooo good. My heart was beating so fast lol. This vn needs more recognition.
We are more than happy to hear that! It was an important turning point for Vekad's route, so we wanted to make it special, and it looks like it reached its goal!
I didn't expect to read mushoku tensei but with bard bunny
game seems interesting so im leaving a comment so i can find it again <3
Let us know what you think once you've read it!
Saw the post saw the dragon now I'm reading it.
I hope you'll enjoy it!
Does Vekad have antler shaped cutouts around the door to his tower so he fits inside more easily?
Nope, the doors are just bigger!
