HEY THIS IS A REALLY COOL CONCEPT!!!!!! I love how the choices and the gui is presented???????? It's a little silly to gush over but I like it!!!!! Also I love Marin and July!!!!!!! The way the skip is done is really cool too!!!!!!!! ALSO I LOVE MARIN AND JULY but alas :') i think when the game comes out, i'll go for maybe benett's route!!!!
I'm a little curious, is there any way to purchase the dragon mask at the moment?
Whoa! Thank you so much! Marin and July are my fav characters, too! They get a hefty focus in Common Route :D
Possible spoiler, but purchasing the dragon mask is not accessible at the moment since it's a True Route flag. Thank you for your enthusiasm and your support!
Funny. Beautiful. Extraodinary. And inspiring! At last I found a masterpiece with choices that I actually would do in real life (speaking of playing mad when caught on assimilating with boxes ;P)
The arts, interface design and programming are really neat. Not too many special effects and colors, but all in the right place, time and amount. Ah, I really like the design and the work of programmer. My eyes enjoyed it :)
Let's see... The only thing I didn't mention so far is music. And it's not because I ddn't like it. I did. Only, when immersed in the story I didn't pay much attention to it. But it is actually really good. The music and sound effects felt natural. When actually stopping for a bit (wich is problematic, because the story flows smooth and interesting) you find out soothing melodies that are hard to stop listening.
And for some reason I'm captivated by the clicking sounds and the sounds of the fan ;P
Overall, though it's just a demo you've done a greate work and it will definitely shine and win more hearts when released. Thank you for you work. And good luck!
Thank you so much! :D For the choices, I wrote down ones that I would personally find fun, so glad to see that there's a fellow lunatic in the house! Very glad that you enjoyed the aesthetics and sounds! — Luna Chai
Zodiac Axis is an, amazing visual novel. The art style is amazing. The story is interesting and, keeps you hooked. I enjoyed the bits of voice acting but, was craving just a bit more. Maybe in another project we will get more voice acting! The interactions are very interesting!
Thank you so much for playing the game! I, too, would adore more voice acting :D Currently, it’s far out of our budget, but perhaps one day... They’ve all done a stellar job! — Luna Chai
Nothing short of amazing, I never expected such immersive story telling from a english visual novel. It's all so sublimely professional.
An intelligent story and an equally intelligent presentation of it. I was reeled in right from the beginning with probably the best introduction I've ever read. Alison is so bright and witty, she was instantly likeable. Starting not from the beginning, but from the middle like journalists often do. I liked that.
Her little quips and narrations throughout were a really nice touch. Of course the story so far is all in the past and her ominous musings are based on information we don't have yet so it kept me on my toes, in anticipation of something supernatural to occur. I loved the little character break down and their zodiac animal definition after each new character was introduced! It's the sort of thing I expect in movies. Kind of dramatic, and in the best sense of the word.
The attention to detail was astounding, you thought about everything right down to to the shutter of the fan in the menu, the stamp-like saving sound effect when I'm saving in a slot and the slight VHS static when fast forwarding to the next choice.
All those little noises when a character is dumbfounded or angry really reminds me of asian dramas. The voice acting is perfect too, gosh it would sound fantastic if it was fully voiced but I understand it would be quite a task. This is a very minor quip because I fell in love with the actor's voices so I wanted to hear more. Regardless the soundbites are doing their job brilliantly!
Miss Teller is my favourite character so far, I can't wait see more from her.
The soundtrack and backgrounds is simply gorgeous, major props to the composer. It gives it a real cinematic feel. The backgrounds are beauitfully drawn too especially during the founder's day show, it was truly captivating.
I can see this becoming very popular! The premise is certainly unique and the quality is top notch.
Wow, thank you so much for the specific feedback and encouragement! We’re truly honored by your enthusiasm, and I’m so glad that you enjoyed all the little details!
The voice actors certainly knocked it out of the park! While we would love to hire the voice actors for more lines, we only raised enough funds for the soundbites / partial voice acting. It’d be a dream come true to invite them back in the future for full VA!
