While I admire the charm of the writer in this VN, it has a LOT to be desired. The entire story seems rushed and not well thought out. I mean it's free and some might enjoy it more than I did, so I'll give it a reluctant positive review since I can't give it a "meh" and it's not so bad that it deserves a negative review.

The biggest problem and confusion is that you have two goddesses, Lune the Goddess of the Moon and Sol, the Goddess of the Sun who are sisters and then you have "Solis" who is a mortal man who is hopelessly in love with a woman destined to be with another man. I won't spoil it all, but Solis, Sol and the entire story just don't mesh well in this visual novel into a relatable or even an understandable story. I get that the writer is trying to speak of a love so true that Solis would do anything and even risk a death to the galactic gods and goddesses to ensure his loves happiness, but it all just falls far short of what I think the writer had hoped.

I give it a 5.5 out of 10, and it gets a thumbs up really only because it's a free kinetic novel. There are simply much better VNs here on Steam that are also free.


A "meh" and a hesitant thumbs up. It's alright but also very forgettable.

Hey Zaxtor99, thanks for checking out my project! I watched your full playthrough, and I can understand where your coming from. I'm satisfied with this visual novel as it is, though partly because I didn't have high ambitions going into its development. However, it seems it didn't click with you, and that's certainly disappointing for both of us.

To answer one of the questions/comments from your video:

This was made in Ren’py, and there’s an option in the Preferences menu that affects how quickly text is displayed. From your gameplay footage, it looks like the speed is cranked up to the instant setting, which is why it doesn’t have any kind of fading or scrolling. That setting can be adjusted, and I’m not sure why your copy seems to have defaulted to the fastest speed. I may look into the Steam build for possible glitches. For context, this is how it normally looks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RVxIwsSZHw
