This was so fun! I fell in love with Cyrus immediately. The story was really nice too, nothing too crazy, but definitely made me wanna play until the end. Perfect for Halloween as well XD
i don't usually write game reviews, but i felt compelled to say something about this game because i love it so much and the people who worked on this game deserve to know that! the writing is so immersive and cyrus is so cute. this game reminded me of a lot of 'a date with death' in the best ways possible.
Thank you so much!! This means a lot. :'D A Date with Death was actually part of my inspiration for remaking this game to what it is now! Again, thank you for the compliments and taking the time to review.
HE WAS ALWAYS MY BABY, AND NOW SEEING THE FULL VERSION.. it makes me sooo happy! i hope it gets a lot of attention, it's just the sweetest game ever. i love you forever, cyrus <333
This game was BEYOND cute. Thanks to you all, my cheeks hurt from all the smiling I did. It was just so amazing. Who knew a story about a cute ghost and a necrophiliac would be so wholesome and something I'd absolutely needed in life. Cyrus is such a cutie patootie. It's hard to find banter in stories that actually makes you giggle. I was so happy to see the game have multiple chapters and doesn't end short. Of course, I greedily wish if there was more Cyrus content 😭
Thank you for the game. The CGs and backdrops were amazing. Especially MC's house is literally so beautiful and calming to look at. The morning scenes from the mansion were gorgeous too. Wish we could see the fountain area with Cy's hydrangeas in it and tea room in the daylight!! This has become one of my favourite games and Cyrus is best boy <3
What an absolutely ADORABLE little halloween themed romance vn. Ngl, I was expecting more yandere-esque vibes, but this cutesy little formal ghost fella worked just as well. Seriously, the character's, characterisation, personalities, interactions, and comedy are to DIE for(pun perhaps intended).
Though, as cute and charming as it all is, my sole(or should I say soul? hehe) critique would be that the plot and trust between characters progresses a TAD quick to feel realistic. But hey, suspension of disbelief for that sweet sweet ghost boy romance 'amiright?
Thank you so much for the kind words!! I'm glad you enjoyed it. If yandere vibes are more your thing, I'm actually working on another game where the main love interest fits that personality type much more than Cyrus. No projected release date yet!
Yeah, completely get that critique! I agree with you, and if I were making a 'full length game', I absolutely would take time to flesh out the relationship between Cyrus and the player more. However, I never intended for this to be a long game, so I'm happy with how it is currently. <3
Congratulations, this was the thing that finally killed me and turned me into a ghost too.
I can't express how happy this makes me that my dumb little game got fan art. Cyrus would have this professionally framed and probably cry over it. Thank you.
Hellooo! ım finally here after playing the demo and ı already feel sooo bad for missing out this gem all those days :'). my thoughts in summary is I enjoyed every second ı got in this game the game gave me all those romance, slice of life moments, and cute ghost boy and ı was so happy to tak them all because ı just played demo like 2-3 times ı can see how much work you put into it in the released game and ım amazed!! having all those response choices ı was like little kid happily saving the all choosing moments so ı can experience all those answer ı could get from cute ghost boy and even with that ı didnt picked all choices and will probably replay several times to cover them either. as for music ı think they matched with the story very well they and art is very gorgeous too!
as for the story flow ı enjoyed all of them and none of the part of story bored me ıts very good in my opinion (ım saying these as slice of life and cute stuff lover ofc everyone has their own opinion) and ım verrryy happy about Happy ending honestly ı was bit afraid that story might not end with such good ending but ım very glad it did thank you for all the hard work for this verryy cute and amazing game! ^^
I adored this game so much, thank you for making it. I loved the personality of the MC and Cyrus so much! Everything about the game felt really cozy and nice to read. The only issue I have is from the AI generated images >.> I understand you had your reasons for doing such but I hope future titles will be AI-free. : >
Hi! Thank you so much! Super happy you enjoyed the game.
I understand the concern with AI generated BGs, but I am a one person studio with zero budget for the game. I cannot draw BGs myself, and it would have costed me a lot of money to commission an artist for the amount I needed. The game is free. Thank you for the concern!
Hello! Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
The bug has been fixed in the new update I just posted. If you delete the game and download the new version, it should work as intended. Your progress will be saved!
I really enjoyed this game! I never played the demo but it was written rly well! Also Cy was drawn well too being super cute. I don't like the ai art used for the background, it looks nice at a glance but on closer inspection it's kinda terrible lol, not to mention the whole stolen art mashed aspect. Whatever your reasons for using it, it's honestly the only thing stopping me from thinking the game is perfect! Anyways thanks for making this, it was fun and cute and my chat loved Cy! Best of luck on future games!
I appreciate your feedback! As an artist myself, I understand the issue with AI art completely. The demo used real life photos altered with filters. I can't draw BGs to save my life and the game never would have gotten done otherwise. In the future, I'd be happy to commission an artist to make BGs for me, but it simply wasn't in my budget for this, being a free game made solely by myself. Thank you for playing!
No worries I touched on it in my commentary, that you probably had your reasons and that even ai stuff does have it's uses at times (especially for something not being profited off of) Best of luck on your career!

Thank you so much for playing my game! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It means the world to me to see a playthrough made of it! ♡
I received an error while playing the game:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
File "game/script.rpy", line 1668, in script
if doorwaypeak:
File "game/script.rpy", line 1668, in <module>
if doorwaypeak:
NameError: name 'doorwaypeak' is not defined
This error was thrown after you as a player are just about to settle down with Cyrus to the room where they planned to have the sleepover.
In general though a very well made game and great dialogue!
