Given that this VN is not quite adherent to the theme, I guess I have to read to the end to find out the two incompatible story genres this story has.

I enjoyed the writing style a lot. The plot was a bit tricky to follow at points, but I think I have it figured out now after playing through a couple endings.

The music and art set a very calm and ocean-like mood.

It would be nice if the skip feature stopped a couple lines back to give some context.

It's a shame there's no music in the main menu, the music in the rest of the game is pretty nice actually - did you compose it yourself? Beyond that, I'm not big on visual novels and I gotta say [though you SPECIFICALLY ask not to comment on that it's the elephant in the room sooo sue me], I find it's a bit of a shame you decided do stay in your comfort zone on this one - you know how to make pretty decent Visual Novels, anyone can tell, and that's pretty cool - but the point of a Game Jam is SPECIFICALLY to put yourself in a situation where you'll find yourself out of your depth [see what I did there haha I like jokes] so you get to learn how to deal with this there and then... so that's what I gotta say. Who knows what you'll come up with next time? I can't wait to find out - take care :-D

I'm not really into visual novels but I really enjoyed it, finished it in one go. Very well written and it has some magical atmosphere, kudos.
