okay absolutely loved this game, but holy moli did I genuinely get scared when echo closed the program.
NOOO ECHO C'MON!!!! i sincerely did like you (ﾉД`)
why is the admin kinda...
i can't download it...it doesnt appear the file when i click the install button..
what type of laptop/pc do you have ? (mac, linus, windows)
This hasn't been updated in nearly a year. Are you guys still working on it?
Echo made me have a mini heart attack and i played his route 18 times....
A very interesting work!<3
This game was very well made! I love how the text moves with the emotions of the game. I can't wait to play with the other characters!
I can't wait for the completed game!
Do you have an estimate for when the full game will be out?
The visual glitches and general vibe is so cool, stylish, and creepy. The art kind of reminds me of old pc-98 VNs due to the pixel/binary pen outlines, love it! Not sure if I got all the endings, but I'll keep poking around. Looking forward to the last route. <3
are we gonna get a route for admin? cuz what they said when i tried the secret ending really made me think that lol
I'm currently playing as I type this in, might type more later but! Ohmygoshhh the GUI is so gorgeous!??!?!?!?!?!I'M LOVING IT !!!! :DDD
Edit: Okay i finished up until the second route and all I can say is that IT'S SO GOOD (zips mouf due to spoilers) RAHHH!!! /pos
OMG this is one of my favorite things to experience in these games, I don't want to spoil much but I had so much fun with this game and I love these guys! Can't wait to see what Thowawayacc's deal is, yes I can, I can wait patiently. And with all the little secrets I still feel that I missed something, please let me know if I missed something!
Yo!!! I watch your videos (you make a lotta VN content I like) anyways thanks for checking this out! Hopefully I can get into making the last part after being on a hiatus the weeks lmao
Thank you so much and please take as long as you need! I fully understand needing a long break, and small progress is still progress!
WHEN UPDATE UPDATE WHEN PLSSSS
LMAO hopefully soon, I'm just coming out of a hiatus
ohhhhh hope everything is oki!! gl w the game
WOWOWOW i absolutely adored everything about this game! the clever way of the UI + sfx into the route had entirely immersed me—i was horrified when the game paused, glitched, and then rolled back. yet, i was also struck!!! this was so cool!!!!!
This is so cool! !Please come on! I am so looking forward to the follow-up development of the game! !
Oh my god, wow, this is just... Wow. This is so damn meta especially in Echo's route and like?? Please, the way Echo connects his route with Inf3rn0's route is so damn cool, not only that but the mechanics and the secrets... It's so cool! I was a sucker for the psychological mystery in Inf3rn0's route but now it cranked high up when Echo just bulldozed his way over (and really, the line where MC goes "especially the ones right in front of you" like bABE DON'T TEASE US LIKE THAT!) I noticed the lil details in Inf3rn0's route that I didn't notice before, especially in that one ending. And the clicking of the lighter that's so constant...
It's all so amazing like wth??? Everything is so connected and well-placed, absolutely adore it! And spoilers!!!
Also about what The Admin said about us deleting the .chr *side eyes* Third times the charm eh?? Poor throwawayacc... Not only that but with the way The Admin keeps referring to us and their somewhat intense fixation on us getting a happy ending... Everything is so curious and cool omg, looking forward to what comes next!
Also question, I deleted the .chr folder but is there a way to bring them back, or do I need to redownload the game again?
Yo i hope you know how much appreciation game devs have for intricate comments like these! Because I loved reading your feedback, anyways you can just put the .chr files back normally and restart the game
Overall great game so far! I feel like I actually did something!
hi uhm Echo's route won't show up to me and its still says unlock?
Hi you have to finish Inf3rn0's route first before you unlock Echo :)
Thank you!
The way I squealed when the yanchat address actually opened the tumblr-

-SPOILERS UNDER CUT-
'you were never in control' hmm? ...I'm gonna kick this sassy MC, I swear.
Seeing "SugarLIAR_6969" made me laugh far longer than it had any right to.
I love how transparent the MC's... issues feel after seeing Inf3rn0's true ending. And yet, Echo_Echo is so understanding when we say something so clearly disturbing. <3
I'm WHEEZING- Of course I get the ending where he doe
sn't like me first....I didn't hear the whispers until my second playthrough and SOMEHOW let myself get startled when it auto-played past 'Listen'
Man, the only thing I did wrong was breezing past him wanting my number. THE ONE MISSTEP- xD
Ok, the Admin getting sassy after I deleted Echo. LOOK- He told me too, so, really, this is kinda on you for making him like that, buddy. Kidding~
This Admin is growing on me too. I'm gonna keep coming back to bug them every update. No matter how many times they change the password. <3
-META SPOILERS-
Also, I was so delighted to see the character names in their CHR files! I had a feeling after the admin file, but it's an odd kinda validating. Almost makes me not wanna delete 'em! ...almost. <3
...hold the phone, does that mean that the instructions are from throwawayacc? 'You'll meet me soon, I'll explain everything.'
Loved that deleting Inf3rn0 got a quick screen too. I restored them, though! No void for either of the first two. Not yet. <3
i took a lot of inspiration from doki doki literature club heh, but anyways thanks for playing! im glad you noticed most of the details too :))
This game is interesting! I will wait for Throwawayacc route
Thanks for playing and even making a video about it! <3
🤍OMG! NEW UPDATE!🖤
<33
I WANT THROWAWAYACC SO BADD I CANNOT WAIT FOR HIS ROUTE
LOOK AT THE FIT MAN
Honestly the whole game so far, is literally great, the pixel art is really good, but I keep having trouble getting all the endings. Basically means i'll be seeing their faces more. c:
That was story was pretty messed up, but it was good messed up. 👍
if you follow my tumblr, i'll probably release a guide for the endings! anyways thanks for playing tho :)
My god was this so fun, I love the little details and how well polished everything looks. Not to mention when I hopped over to check your tumblr and saw the little details that we may have missed out, I was flabberghasted and felt creeped out when I looked back on my experience playing through the demo (I KNEW THE REPORTER FELT SUS)
There will be spoilers below because the "True Ending" is making my mind spin!
So does this mean Inf3rn0 was never real to begin with in the True Ending where MC is just gripping that red lighter?? Inf3rn0 was just conjured up by MC's mind to rationalize the shit they put other people through or used Inf3rn0 as a sort of symbolism that represented all of their ugly desires?? But there also is the wierd ways like how The Admin (now that we know its an AI because of the secret route) used Inf3rn0 and instantly teleported us to a shoddy "good ending" so is everything a simulator then? It's just interesting how many themes can be blending in just 3 endings. The classic "main character went crazy and everything they did was all in their head", "main character snapping and turning evil but then delusionally convinces themselves that everything is okay", "it was just a simulation/dream" and so on and so forth. It's impressive how everything worked out and I'm wondering if you'll ever expand on Inf3rn0's route or if his route is "complete" and just serves as an introductory character to the madness that the players will be thrust in to.
Regardless of that, I really enjoyed playing through it and marvelling at the art and effects, there were those spooky factors and I gotta say, those were really great. Looking forward to what comes next~!
what's their twitter? ^^
Hello hello~! I'm actually not sure about their twitter as I have only seen them in tumblr. But I think if you search their game in twitter you'll find it!
