Thank you! I’d like for the players to be able to play as they’d like while still remaining true to the MC’s personality. They’ve been through a lot, after all. I’m glad you like it so far 
I think MCs who aren’t blank slates aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but I’ve always preferred them. It makes things much more interesting.

You know I usually have a really hard time connecting with characters who come from financially privileged backgrounds but I slipped into this one really easily! Great job! I know what you mean about black slate MCs, but this character felt very substantial to me without me feeling disconnected. Like I could easily play this as a crafted character or even just as “me” and I think that’s a cool thing to be able to accomplish!
I really liked Sydney and Dani too! I’m looking forward to meeting the others. Also, I’m a sucker for Sad Character Learns the Power of Friendship lol I am here for it. And excited to see where it goes!

what got you to make What a Brilliant Exstence
Thank you!! I am also a huge sucker for vulnerable, sad characters learning the Power of Friendship lmaooo If you’re curious, I did a post on Tumblr a while ago about the other two LIs, Max and Alex. I’d recommend taking a look (shameless self plug lol) The MC will definitely be changing a lot over the course of the game, and of course all the characters will play their part. It’s very fun to write, and to conceptualize too.
@Takashi_Shin I’ve wanted to make an IF for a looong time now. When I started writing, I had the basic concept of “lol playing with elements is cool”. I spent very long writing different chapters and concepts before sticking with a slice of life game; whenever I had no idea where I was going, I’d try to remember what I like playing in IF and what I’ve always wanted to see. And then this game came out of it!

Thank you! I also love slice of life so I can only hope to do the genre justice.
I really like what you have so far. I’m curious to see how the MC will go forward after being rescued from their mother. The concept of Medallions intrigues me and Dani seems like fun. Sidenote: the nickname “Dani” is usually given to girls (short for Danielle) while “Danny” is for boys (short for Daniel). It doesn’t really matter as a person can call themself whatever they want, but I just assumed Dani was female until I got the option to choose the gender.
One thing that really did bother me was the Sydney romance. The MC is a sheltered eighteen year old who went through some serious physical and pyschological trauma. Sydney is supposed to be the MC’s caretaker/therapist and is described as having “more than a couple years” on them. Sydney is in a position of trust over a vulnerable individual so any sort romance between them between them just seems wrong to me.
Now of course, I’m just basing this off the first chapter and I have no idea how you plan on developing the romance. I’m just voicing my concerns.

Thank you! I agree, Dani is very fun. Well, maybe also a bit crazy, but mostly fun.
Yep, I’m well aware. Dani is Brazilian, and that is a very common nickname here no matter if you’re a Daniel or a Daniela. Male!Dani has gotten used to people thinking their nickname is odd, however. He thinks it’s mostly funny.
That is an excellent point, one I thought much about when I started developing the Sydney romance.
First of all, romance (no matter the RO) will only start much later on, when the MC is more mature and healthy and able to carry on a relationship. Of course, this doesn’t mean the MC still isn’t in a vulnerable position; but I thought this was relevant enough to mention.
Sydney is well aware of the possible power abuse going on, and they feel very guilty over their crush on the MC. They’re not a manipulative person in the slightest, but they know they need to be careful here. Your concerns will be talked about during Sydney’s route.
As you’ve said, it’s still a short demo. Hopefully you’ll change your mind when romance starts. I’ll be happy to hear more feedback once it does.
@Takashi_Shin Hey there! It’s all good. I’ve been too busy to write this week, but I write like a madman during the weekends, and it’s been super fun, like always. How have you been?

Hi there everyone!
I already announced it on Tumblr, but the update will be coming this weekend. Worst case scenario, it comes out Monday.
It’ll include the other half of Chapter One, where you’ll get to meet the two other ROs, Max and Alex. After this, I’ll only update when each full chapter’s complete, so that way there’s more content.
See you soon!
