Not sure how to get all of the nsfw scenes. Want to view all of the content.
Loved the game. He's so cute I felt bad playing through some of the endings or being mean to him.
usually i dont play "bad" endings, but i love this game so much that i completed every ending and tried to read as much story variations that i could. this game is amazing, 10000/10 recommend. i did feel sad being mean to him though because i love him so much omg. also the smut?? omg i loved it. great writing!!
Dialogue spoiler!!
I meant to comment this sooner, but the “Hey, would it be alright if we banged?” part killed me lol. Gotta respect the forwardness 😂
I wish i could see more of his blood when i kill this goofy a snail
ong
awww i really find him so sweet
MY CUTE BOY!!!! he's my husband
I don't know English well and I translate it through a translator.THIS IS A NOVEL WITH A PERFECT PLOT, the character is very beautiful..but as for me, there are few interactions, sprites, arts and endings in the game : (I really hope that the author will expand his game and diversify it)) I REALLY LOVE THIS SNAKE
esta bonito pero estaria mejor con una opcion de lenguaje español💕✨
Shimil is a very cute character! he's definitely one of my fiction husbands now!♡
P.S this is just quick random drawing that was drawn last night after I finished the game, I generally wish you good luck and thank you for such a cool§cute
game!<3
he's so cute!! i didnt have the heart to be mean to him~
I'm glad you like him! And to be honest, I'd probably be the same if I was played this
I did the other endings with a heavy heart, I so wish there were more happy endings with Shimil, he is so sweet and misunderstood my poor snake boy!
I found his story very sad, him being exiled and having no one... Shimil just needs a happy ending, I love him so much!
I'm really glad you liked Shimil so much! I spent a whole month before the yan jam crafting him and his backstory, and I feel really proud of how he turned out.
I remember about half-way through development I realized how many bad endings there were for him and felt bad for him, but at that point it was too late to add or remove anything to make time to make another good ending.
But I would like to imagine in some timeline he's met someone who truly understands him and make him happy.
Awesome game! The writing is so good, I love Shimil <3
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it and happy you liked my writing and OC
I loved the game and snake boi! :D
I'm still getting all the endings but I can't seem to figure out how there are non-con nsfw parts? Unless I'm just super lucky and haven't come across them yet ^^ Oooor Shimil is just too nice of a snake :)
I love the writing and overall feel of the game and how you incorporated time into the game mechanics! Great game, definitely recommend!
Since the warning says implied somnophilia which means being sexually attracted to a sleeping person it probably has to do with that.
Obviously just so people know there can be consent somnophilia if you discuss it beforehand and all people are alright with it ^^
I'm really glad you liked it! It makes me really happy to know you enjoyed it so much.
To be honest, one non-con nsfw needs a specific requirement (getting him to like you enough and attacking him while he's sleeping the first night, then it'll take place the next night), and the other is implied non-consensual somnophilia that might be hard to catch (when the player rejects his advances the second night). I thought there was more, but when I checking the code I realized there's apparently not.
Snake person was nice, minus the kidnapping part. I haven't managed to get an ending yet, but I'm enjoying the game so far. 10/10
Thank you for playing! I'm really glad you're having fun. And I had fun watching your video. Thank you for taking the time to make it and share it with me.
I noticed a few bugs I had missed in the game when watching your video. It's a little embarrassing, but I'm glad that it didn't seem to effect your enjoyment.
I had planned to make a walk through for getting the endings and your comment reminded me to make it. It's now posted in a devlog if you'd like to look at it.
You're welcome, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I didn't notice any bugs on my end so they must be minor. I'll check the devlog for the walkthroughs so i can see how it ends. Best of luck in future updates/projects.
I love this game!! it was so fun to play and he was so nice (despite the kidnapping) that I felt bad for being mean to him xD
Also, is there a walkthrough to get all the endings?
Thank you! I'm glad you like it, and I know what you mean. I felt so bad putting some of those mean options in there.
And no, there is currently no walkthrough to get all of the endings yet. At least none that I've made, there are currently only hints in the endings menu. I was planning to make a walkthrough at some point in the future, but at the current moment I'm on vacation and will probably only write and post that when I get home in about a week.
He is too cute <3.Thanks for all and enjoy your vacations!!
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it
I loved this so much <333
There was a few errors here and there but not enough to effect gameplay so i didn't mind it :)
I love to get all endings but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the last one i need for all of them, i'm gonna sob. It was the one with the hint that says something like if he's tired he won't wake up easy so i've just been trying to kill him but i cannot cause he catches me every time T-T am i doing something wrong cause i tried both days but nothing for either of them -.-
Thank you!
I did my best to catch as many errors as I could, but I was running behind and obviously didn't have enough time to catch all of them. But I'm very glad it didn't hinder your enjoyment and ability to play.
And the implication I was trying to give with that hint was that you need to make him go out to get things for you enough times that he becomes tired and is in a deeper sleep from the all the work. I could give two recommendations on how to more easily achieve this, but you might like to figure out the best method on your own, so I won't unless you ask.
Thank you so much for playing this.
I enjoyed it and i also loved the Snake boi XD
Thank you! Snake bois are great. I'm glad I got to make a game with one
I like it
Thank you! I'm glad you did
I played it and I would love to see more stuff from you! Do you have any plans for future games? :)
No definite plans for anything yet. Today I dusted off an old project I hadn't worked on in a while, but I can't say for certain if that's what I'll work on next or how long it'll take.
Thank you so much for playing this. I'M glad you liked it!
