Ever since I played Sweetest Valentine I started to follow u and became one of my fav devs!! I finally had time to finish this game (hehe definitely did not stayed up late ;p) ONE OF THE GAMES THAT MADE ME CRY ARGHHH that final ending 4 broo ToT, definitely my fav ending. There soo many endings and route too I REALLY ENJOYED THIS GAME SO TYSM FOR MAKING IT AAA. I love the story and the characters?!? Like omgg I'll say it again your art is beautiful and I really really love your artstyle. AND IM SO GLAD THERES A GALLERY NOW YAYYY. ueueue I'm gonna have a brainrot of this game for weeks looking forward to moree~! hihiii
YeriKyaa! It's so good to see you here as well! I'm honored that I became one of your fav game devs and I hope my future work won't disappoint! I'm sorry (not really LOL) for indirectly making you cry. Thank you for giving wttfm a go and I'm happy that you enjoyed the game! Your kind words are truly appreciated, I mean it. :D
This game changed my biological structure. my whole being. I absolutely love it, the angst, the story, the characters, and the endings (ESP the bad endings). so so good. Great game >v<
I'd like to play the game, but when I try to launch it it says that 'save data' was detected and to only load the game from a trusted source, after which it says it has aborted the start up.
Anything I can do? It says to delete the supposed save data, but I've never played the game before so no clue how it can have save data.
I've not seen a file with anything resembling that name either. I tried ununstalling an reinstalling a few times, but that didn't seem to do anything either? Any ideas or tips?
Oh, that's definitely odd. Are you playing version 1.2.1? If so, then I'll open access to version 1.2. Please try to download that one and see if that version works fine. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!
OMG, this is wonderful, great story, i definetely engoyed playing it! This is the first story in a long time that reaaally touched me. Author, thank you for such an amazing work, i love it
not usually a fan of stories centering men but this is 100% smth special and worth checking, finding out what happened between the past scenes and the present scenes is a joy, especially when you use the bad endings' conclusions to piece together the goals of certain characters, as they feel purposefully written to take you closer to the truth, even if it's done in a cryptic way.
spoilers below this line. the game is best played with minimal knowledge!!
the true endings were all pretty great, at some point the game splits into two 'paths', the C endings were all generally quite macabre in different ways, out of them all (including bad endings) the aran ending is my favorite, since it portrays the utter hopelessness of the project for everyone involved (save for frida. she's always winning lol), after the events of the game caleb is incredibly traumatized and seemingly doesnt seem happy even with a successfully recreated aran, 07 had absolutely no means of escape and even if he did, he'd never be able to stop the project successfully and iirc julia's fate is completely unknown. 06 also isnt particularly happy considering he's stuck with an insanely abusive caleb. it's an inherently unsatisfying ending despite it having the least amount of fatalities (afaik only 07 and 05 die) because the project was never meant to improve people's lives, and with caleb never coming to grips with that fact, he would never find true happiness.
out of the S endings, of course ending 1 is the happiest of them all, with seven and caleb both coming out of the project with minimal damage, and their relationship being born sturdy and unshakeable after coming out of the hell that was the hospital. but i honestly really really love ending 2. seven is still happy as he has roy's and caleb's posthumous funds and a nice community in idaho to live out the rest of his life in with a relative amount of peace. but even with seven settling into a calm and peaceful place, the ending isn't quite satisfactory. caleb was never able to let go of the past, the project will ultimately succeed as we see in ending 4, and seven will have to live with the guilt of abandoning it all for his own sake. all this to say that i think ending 2 does a great job at portraying one of the main themes of wttfm: letting go of the past, in nearly every single ending caleb ends up killing himself, and with the sole exception of ending 1 in the other endings he lives in a hell of his own design all because of his maniacal obsession with keeping the past alive. only through understanding he has a future beyond resurrecting the past does caleb find true happiness, which to me is a perfect summation of everything the game has to offer. now i only hope caleb can properly acknowledge his fate as a beautiful butch woman.
as for things to criticize, i would've loved to see more from julia in the C endings. or more julia in general, seeing her in the flashbacks would've helped expand her relationship with caleb. the action scene in both of the S path was a little jarring but i feel it was still written well and adds a much-needed bonding moment between 07 and caleb, even if it's on top of the bodies of several innocent guards. lastly, it would've been nice if frida's nature as a clone would've gotten a little bit more clarification, but that's ultimately not necessary considering it doesn't have much to do with any of the games themes and serves more of a worldbuilding purpose than anything.
ultimately i really liked wttfm, it's a great blend of horror and character-focused drama that does a great job at making you wonder what exactly happened in between those 11 years of memory loss while dangling almost every single answer directly in your face without telling you. the small details that are easily missed solidify the games events as real mysteries that could be solved by an astute reader, such as 07's scars not matching the kind of scars you'd get from jumping off a building, his hair being black despite aran's being blue and the first bad ending showing caleb's unreasonable and emotion-driven behaviour. an absolute joy to read from start to end <3
Seems like Spader caught another one LMAO, but I'm super thankful for your words, really! I'm glad that despite the male-centric cast, you're still able to enjoy it, which means a lot!
I really enjoyed reading what you thought of the game and its endings. I also really appreciate the criticism because this game definitely still has a lot of flaws! I'll definitely keep it in mind for future projects. Julia and Frida are characters that grew on me a lot, especially Frida. I definitely have more plans for her in store, though sadly I can't say the same for Julia :') I'm always happy to see the side characters getting some love either way!
Once again, thanks for playing and I'm happy you enjoyed the experience! :D
I'm still playing and I want to know how to choose the best ending. I have chosen to use a blank card in chapter 4. Mainly because I didn't want to see them end badly, but I also wanted to know what the truth was.So, can someone tell me, please！
i love this game. past me didn't know what i was getting myself into. after i finished the story, i felt empty for a day or so. i'm not sure if this is because i want more or because the story messed me up lol
spoilers
my favourite part in the game is when the blonde guy cuts open the protagonist's head. not because of the action but because the doctor looked insane. also what is the name for the music when the music box was playing?
I loved the game sm tho LIKE OMG THE ARTSTYLE AND THE STORY?? definition of perfection. THE MUSIC TOO ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC BOX SOUND GAVE ME SM COMFORT I STAYED A WHOLE HOUR LISTENING TO IT 🙏🙏😭😭BUT OMG I CANT WITH THIS EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 😭😭😭😭
FINAL ENDING 1 AND 4 MADE ME SOB SM LIKE NO THE CREATOR OF THIS GAME WHEN I CATCH YOUUUU HKFKHFKGDDKH
LMAOOOO thank you and sorry for (indirectly) causing the all caps wailing. I'm glad you loved the experience despite it all and I wish you a swift recovery LOL 🙏
Finished Where the Two Flowers Meet, just as the clock strikes midnight!
Congratulations on such a lovely VN release. It has just the right amount of calmness with a touch of unease to it. The mystery was fairly obvious, but interesting to read nonetheless. I can tell that a lot of care went into the creation of the VN despite having to work a full-time job on top of it. All in all, would recommend this to anyone who doesn't shy away from a bit of darkness and is looking for a short story to entertain themselves with (I finished it in < 2 hours).
Thank you for playing and for leaving a nice comment! I really appreciate it! A lot of time and care really did went into this game and I'm happy that it doesn't go unnoticed. I'm also glad that you find the story interesting! Wishing you all the best and have a nice day! :D
This game had me in a vice grip all weekend! I sat down intending to play it for an hour and next thing I knew it was Sunday and I was making a go for the finale!
WTTFM is such an emotionally resonate and poignant story, I wasn't ready for all the feels!
I've said this on twitter but I'll say it again, thank you so much for playing through my game and for writing such a well written review on it! I've actually read some of your reviews before and enjoyed it thoroughly, so it was a really pleasant surprise when I clicked the link and saw Blerdy Otome (you're one of the reasons why I decided to finally purchase Sweet Pool, Togainu no chi, and Room No. 9 lol). It's an honor and I really appreciate it! Thank you for all that you do! :D
This game felt so wholesome then it ripped your heart out :( in a good way? I guess haha? Since I really enjoyed your other games and this one I decided to at least support you a bit and got the artbook!
That was lovely and I just really like how you write characters overall. In case you read this (or not it's fine) I would be curious if you have a "favorite / right ending" in your opionion? Aran is so pretty I can't and I feel Caleb's suffering (to be honest most of my characters suffer too so I can't complain there).
Woah Aran pfp!! Thank you so so much for the support! I really do appreciate it, more than you can ever imagine! I'd also like to thank you for leaving a comment on my other games too! I just got around to reading them and it's really sweet. I'm super happy that you enjoyed my works so far and even bought the artbook. I hope you find the artbook enjoyable to go through :D
Writing and creating characters is my favorite thing ever, so I'm always happy to hear that people like the way I write characters! (Especially making your characters suffer, that's really fun isn't it LOL).
[Spoilers below]
As for my favorite ending, I'd honestly say Ending C (the one where Seven snapped and got into an unhealthy relationship with Caleb). It's the most fun to write and imagine all the angst lol. However, the right/canon ending would have to be the best ending of all, Final Ending 1 (the two escaped and moved on). I like making my characters suffer but I also like seeing them go through it and come out a better person with a better future.
I had the default pfp for so long now lol I think it was time to change that and you're welcome!
Oh yeah I'm always most interested in the characters when it comes to story and I love creating characters too and make them suffer lol.
SPOILERS BELOW
To be honest I really like this ending too! Yeah the angst would be great on this one. A part of me would probably hope they come together in final ending 1 though I understand that this isn't possible. Thank you so much for responding to my comment I appreciate it!
started my new year off RIGHT with this game. the clock hit 12 just as i got to the epilogue and something about that feels so poetic, hehe
your writing is just. otherworldly. your previous vns, especially for amerta have a very special place in my heart -- and once again, you've outdone yourself aaaaaaaaa i cannot even put into words how much i loved this.
all of the characters are absolutely gorgeous btw and i will think about aran's beautiful hair forever he is literally SO pretty :")
i also really, really love caleb's range in all the different routes, from someone really guilty to someone who doesn't hesitate to literally cut 07's brain out while he's still alive. he's so sufficiently unhinged while also being someone i can't help but sympathise with -- i'm repeating myself but i'm in love with your writing!!
thank you for making this genuinely it will literally stay with me forever
edit: also wanted to add, i love the name of this vn so so so much
Aww happy new year to you raazberry! I'm so happy to see you here as well and to think that you spend the new year playing this game makes me feel really touched! Reading this comment really made my new year better, so I hope the game made your new year better as well.
Slight spoilers below
Caleb was a really fun character to write so to hear that you enjoy his antics while still find him sympathetic makes me happy! I like to tease him a lot by making him go through so much stuff but ultimately, I really care about him LOL
I also thought really hard for Aran's design, so I'm truly happy that you find him pretty! The title also went through some revisions and even recently I've been thinking whether it's a good title or not, so it's a relief that you like the title :'D
Just- thank you so much for playing and for your kind comment! They really do mean a lot more than you can think! Have a wonderful 2024 ahead of you and stay hydrated! <3
Thank you for playing and I feel so honored that you made an account just to leave a nice comment! Thank you very much! Sorry (not sorry) for making you cry though LOL
OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR STORIES!! Ever since I played one of your VNs, I fell in love! And I downloaded the others! And just as I expected! All of them were amazing! Each of them gives me such a mix of emotions!! You NEED to keep going because WE.NEED.MORE!! And Also I hope you a have a great day! :3
AHHH thank you so much for your kind words!! I'm so glad that you enjoyed my works and it's comments like these that do motivate me to create more! I hope you have a wonderful day as well and once again, thank you for giving my stories a chance! :D
This story touched me emotionally, oh my god i teared up during the story and cried at the endings too. It's well written and told in a compelling way and i appreciate that the story wraps up really well too. The art and music also adds a lot to the narrative and it really helped to make you feel what the characters are feeling during emotional scenes.
If you're interested in a good story for a few hours I'd definitely recommend this!
SPOILERS: _ _ _ _ _ _
The story is so tragic I cried.
The flashbacks help to distance the sterile hospital from the happy memories of Caleb and Aran together in the house, making the present day feel really desolate. "At the very least they're both alive and they can be happy again" was a really prominent thought in my head until the one tenous thread to those happy days is severed permanently with the reveal that the original Aran is already dead, and those good memories are in the past forever.
It really helps you to empathize with the loss that Caleb feels as you realize Aran didn't make it that far into their "10 year relationship" and is just left behind in the past forever with the rest of their "relationship" being Caleb torturing himself and others in his grief. I genuinely cannot replay the happy memories again without tearing up knowing that Aran dies so early and the scene where Caleb uses a sledgehammer on Aran's corpse and turns all their love and hope and happiness into raw meat and a long-dead brain in a jar actually fucked me up. I genuinely felt grief for Aran and every time I see art of him smiling or being happy in the past that actually hits me.
To top it all off, the endings for Aran being "resurrected" are also really quite tragic. Forgive me if I misunderstood but the resurrection is basically just cloning and the real original person is still dead right? I feel like Caleb would know this as the person who made it happen, and the endings have an empty feeling in them to reflect that, like Caleb is just plastering over his pain by pretending that HIS Aran is back and never took his own life while some poor test subject has basically been killed and a new Aran is just confused and lost.
The ending where he takes his own life next to 7 and wakes up with Ro and Aran back in the house and the first thing he does is hug Aran and cry hit me so hard. I really am so impressed with how this game made me feel because I usually find it hard to be moved by fiction but this story really did affect me.
I had to take a break after that but I went back in and did the 07 endings where he bcomes his own person and im so glad I did that because it gave me some hope. The good ending where Caleb doesn't forget his grief but "moves on" and 7 doesn't forget his trauma but becomes his own person with Caleb really feels like closure. Like they're finally free from the events that happened so long ago and they can move on and stop torturing themselves, its really quite hopeful while still being somber which I adored. In a way, it kinda gave me back the "At the very least they're both alive and they can be happy again" hope I had at the start, just in a different way.
Also the music box at the end is so not fair for my heart.
Oh my god, thank you so much for playing and for sharing your thoughts! I'm always so happy to know that some people are willing to spend a few hours of their time to play this and I'm really glad that the story is able to touch you in some way! That's all I ever want!
Spoilers down below
I'm sorry (not sorry) about the tragic story lol
I also want to confirm that yes, you're right about the "ressurection" part! I'm gonna sound like a nerd for saying this, but technically the project itself is divided into different types of ressurection (like ressurection via brain manipulation, cloning, or by technology). But yeah, the dead stays dead and the whole project is just an attempt to create a "perfect" imitation of said dead person. You're also correct in thinking that Caleb is definitely more aware of this as one of the head researchers. Man really is fighting a losing battle since the beginning.
Once again, I feel really honored that this story of mine is able to move you! Just overall extremely grateful that you gave this story a shot and enjoyed it! Words will never be enough to express my gratitude to you and to other players that played this!
I'm curious though, would you mind if I ask you how you found this game? Just survey purposes.
Thank you for the reply! I found the game while browsing the boys love tag on itch.io and I recommended it to some of my friends after finishing it hahaha.
Spoilers:
The story hurts but its soooo good
Yeah the impression I got was kinda like the game SOMA but I wasn't sure exactly. Poor Caleb, I'm glad he gets some semblance of closure in the ending at least, even though that music box scene is still painful hahahha. I hope 7 and Caleb live peacefully and find closure (╥﹏╥)
Thank you again for the story, I'm glad that I got to experience it cause its left a genuine impact on me and its rare for me to be moved by a game, you really did an amazing job with WTTFM. I've followed you on itch.io and twitter and I really look forward to any future projects you might work on!
Thank you for telling me and for recommending this game to your friends! Thank you too for following me and for the support! It's really appreciated! I hope your friends could enjoy this game as well. 🙇
even with the complications, with the save, i found this to overall to be a great story! i happen to be someone who tends to talk alot when I feel like I can, so please dont mind me, so all the endings were unique in there own way, and i enjoyed every part of that, i especially like the final ending 1: rhododendron just because everything seem to end up well, i like happy endings and well this could kind count as a happy ending in my books, definitely one of the best vn i played so far, thanks for making it. and the cg were all drawn wonderfully, i really like caleb and aran's design, caleb looks really cool in the final ending 1, and it seems like he still doesnt know how to tie a tie. i love all the games you made so far, hope to see something new in the future as well but of course theres no need to rush. but if you do happen to have something planned i wish you luck on that. (i have a bad habit of talking to much i swear dont mind me, dont even read it all.)
Aww thank you so much, gh0xty! And do feel free to talk! I love reading what people have to say about my projects, be it good or bad. I'm happy that you still enjoyed the story despite all the scuff! It's an honor to have this work being regarded as one of the best vns you have played so far! I also worked really hard on all the art, so I'm really happy that you like it!
Once again, thank you for sticking through the game despite the complications and for your continued support! I hope my future works will not dissappoint! Until then, take good care of yourself! :D
im crying. i swearrr i had something to do so i saved and closed the game and by the time i came back home i went on my computer only find out that all the save slots were empty, i knew for a fact that i have saved since it was only a few hours ago, last time this happened i thought it was only a mistake and i had to reread from the start all over again not that i mind to much but, the skip button doesnt work either, perhaps it might have been my storage problems but it wasn't that. the one i downloaded the windows 64bit and also the 32bits one, im not sure if this is just a problem with me though! even though i've only gotten to chapter 5 i can tell this was going to be great! i've loved playing your other games too, i honestly had my eye on this one for a while too
Oh, that is definitely weird. I'm really sorry for all the inconvenieces, but thank you for letting me know about it! I'll try to fix it to the best of my ability! For now, you can use the skip button if you turn on the "unread text skip" in the config. I hope that helps! If it still doesn't work, I can personally email you the game file with a save slot that begins in chapter 5. Again, so sorry for the inconvenience!
of course, no need to worry! thank you for telling me about the skip button thing, i didnt notice it since i didnt see the config, this will definitely help in getting though the dialogue faster. thanks alot!
You're welcome and I'm happy to hear it! I hope you'll be able to enjoy the remaining chapters and don't feel shy to let me know if you encounter more error (hopefully there won't be anymore though)!
of course, i'll let you know if i happen to find anything more errors and such, i do hope there won't be any, i just finished playing the c route and its so good! im crying, literally the final ending 4 is so nice, its like we can finally see them happy together, i happen to like hydrangeas.
I am so upset I recorded this whole game which by the way was a masterpiece. So epic. But there were a few parts of my recording that just had stuttering audio and it would freeze, god I hate my laptop. I will find a way of getting it resolved lol.
But again, thanks for this game. It was such a wild ride.
Ooh this is VERY CUTEE! You drew them really well and I really love how soft they look here! Thank you for drawing them and for your continued support! :DD
dude this game i love it so much, too much that i wanna draw something with the two characters so sorry to bother but is there any socials you have where you posted the initial sketches/ og designs i know theyre at the end of the game in the gallery when you finish but i forgot to save when i played it a few days ago and only realized now that i have the time to draw.
hello! Thank you for playing and I'm glad you love it! I don't really post their og sketches too much, but you should be able to see them either from this post: https://syllphana.itch.io/wttfm/devlog/585467/wttfm-behind-the-scenes-post or from my insta. It's: https://instagram.com/syllphana and it should be in my 💐 story highlight. I didn't post all of the early designs there tho. Hope that helps and I hope you can have fun drawing them!
I wanted to do a simple design for Aran, but when I did it, I realized I had a lot of different ideas, so I drew him in different ways. He is not as beautiful as the original and my proportions are not that good, but I really enjoyed drawing him. Also, these are just paper drawings, nothing amazing XD
I also found an interesting coincidence. I was looking at my drawings waiting for coloring and then I saw that a few days before the game was released, I drew a guy that looked so much like Aran. So for fun I colored him like Aran.
Oooh! Thank you for coming back and showing me! Super duper excited to see it but I need to request an access (which I already sent, sorry for all the trouble!)
EDIT: Okay I can access it. Your drawings are SO ADORABLEE! I love the way you drew Aran, he became so pretty and moe! I myself haven't drawn him with Ro, so I became really happy seeing him relaxing with Ro in your drawings. The design of your OC is also really cool! Thank you so much for sharing those with me!
I will write about how I felt in detail later, but I really need to say this...It was an amazing and beautiful story. I CRIED SOO MUCH. THIS STORY TOUCHED MY SENSITIVE SOUL AND THE FINAL ED 1 MADE ME CRY WATERFALL (Oh, i am not screaming, btw) One of the best vns I have ever played on here istg. I really want a sequel, but I don't think that will happen. Anyway, thank you for this wonderful story. I LOVED IT SO MUCH.
Woah thank you so much for playing! I'll be looking forward to hearing how you felt in more details when you have the time to write it down! I'm definitely extremely happy that you enjoyed the story though! And about that sequel, there's actually one planned. It won't really focus on these main characters though, but they'll make a really small and subtle cameo at least. It'll focus more on the universe itself. I hope you can still look forward to that!
Snowy and I finished playing. It was a ton of fun!
We got through all the endings and had a lot of discussions throughout our route choices. I also predicted the plot twist around Caleb almost as soon as it was revealed what he specialized in.
This was the order in which we reached each ending.
Final Ending 4 Final Ending 3 Ending 3 Ending S1 Final Ending 1 Final Ending 2 Ending S3 Ending S2 Normal Ending 2 Normal Ending 1
I do have questions about one of the routes though.
Hey Knice! Thank you so much for playing through the entire game with your girlfriend! I really appreciate it! Knowing the order which you guys reached the ending was a really interesting insight too!
I'll answer your questions below so heavy spoilers down below
In the final ending 2 (choosing to live for Aran), Caleb and Seven didn't take as much time talking in that tunnel when compared to the other choice, so they had time to escape. Even if barely. While Seven took a bit to convince Caleb in the Seven ending, creating enough time for Frida to step in.
Also, about that fight scene, honestly I also thought it's goofy, but I look at the scene again and I decided to fully commit to it, embracing it LMAOO. It may not be the best decision storytelling wise, with the mood shift, but I'm glad to know that it made you two laugh at least!
I hope that clears up any confusion about it! Feel free to ask me if there's still something that confuses you. And lastly, thank you so much for your continued support so far! I really do appreciate it and I'm always happy to hear you two enjoying my games. Take good care of yourselves!
You're very welcome though! I don't know if I'll make more gay/BL games, but I definitely want to make more games in the future, whatever it'll be, so I hope you can look forward to that! :D
omg I just finished it and I can't find words on how amazing,wonder,magnificient...this game is I got all the endings and each time you surprised me with the plot twists I've also played your other to VNs,and all of them were well done you never disappoint fr I also love the design of your characters<333 rest well!
Woah thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad that you enjoyed my works so far and thank you for your continued support! It truly means a lot! (Thank you for using the Aran icon as well! Seeing that makes my day hehe)
Anytime,you deserve all the support and more<333 (I love every one of the icons theyre all super cute but aran is my favorite character so far so i used himm i'm happy it made your day
I have played both of your games so far (For Amerta and WTTFM) both of them are really great! it's unlike other VN I have played so far. Your VN are the best ones I have played, definitely in my top 1. I am also planning to play Sweet Valentines. I bet it will be great! Keep up the good work and take your time :D
Aww thank you so much! I'm really happy and feel honored that you think so about my works! I hope Sweetest Valentine and my future works will be able to entertain you as well! Once again, thank you for your kind words and have a great day! :D
This is really good! It's quite long, so I only experienced Route S ending 1 and 2. However, the entire process is excellent, and I really like the art style.

I want understand more about Aran's death, so I might explore the other routes in the future. I was expecting more tension&angst between Aran and Caleb, but I love their dynamic.
Overall, great job! This work's story & writing style is very different compared to "Sweetest Valentine," but I love them both equally. 😊
Cherish! Thank you so much! (I'm a huge fan of your game by the way, it's amazing!)
I'm glad you enjoyed the experience and also glad to know that you enjoyed both my works! Having you enjoy my art style is also such an honor and a huge praise, so thank you for that! I really do appreciate your kind words :'D
I hope you'll be able to enjoy Route C whenever you get into it! Thank you once again and have a nice day!
I love this game SO SOOO Much. I played it for almost 6 hours straight. The story, the characters, everything was amazing. It was moving and every ending was so interseting. I really really LOVED it.
I particulary loved to learn each characters stories, since I tend to put myself in the place of people I want to understand. It was so emotionnal and I really enjoyed learning about the original Aran's story and about Caleb. So my favourite ending was when they ended up together again, it was so cute and heart warming. (I won't lie, but it's also because I really enjoy BLs XD).
The character I prefered the most was the original Aran. His story was so depressig that I felt i a bit as my own in some ways. I won't say that what happened to him happened to me, but I understood some of the things he felt because I felt them too. I really wanted to take him in my arms and to hug him to tell him that everything would be ok, but he still died.
To sum it up, I loved the game even more than the others by Syllphana (not to say I don't like them, I love them too). I always love these games that are exactly the kinds that could keep me awake all night to play them restlessly. I thank you Syllphana and all the persons who helped to develop this master piece. Wish you all my best wishes for the future and I hope to see you again for another great game ( not to pressure you XD). Take care of yourselves and thank you again for this amazing game.
Also, I decided to try drawing Aran my way, I loved him so much that I wanted to do it to pay him tribute. I can always share the result later.
Thank you so much for playing and for the kind comment, Sophie! I'm really really happy that you enjoyed the entire experience and also knowing that this is your favorite work of mine! I worked really hard on it, and so does the people helping me, so I'm happy to know our work did not go to waste! Thank you for all the wishes and for your continued support!
I also can't wait to see that Aran drawing! No pressure though, just go at your own pace and only share it if you're comfortable with it. :D

YeriKyaa! It's so good to see you here as well! I'm honored that I became one of your fav game devs and I hope my future work won't disappoint! I'm sorry (not really LOL) for indirectly making you cry. Thank you for giving wttfm a go and I'm happy that you enjoyed the game! Your kind words are truly appreciated, I mean it. :D
This game changed my biological structure. my whole being. I absolutely love it, the angst, the story, the characters, and the endings (ESP the bad endings). so so good. Great game >v<
I am honored to have created such an impact LMAO Thank you for playing and I'm glad you enjoyed the ride!
I'd like to play the game, but when I try to launch it it says that 'save data' was detected and to only load the game from a trusted source, after which it says it has aborted the start up.
Anything I can do? It says to delete the supposed save data, but I've never played the game before so no clue how it can have save data.
I've not seen a file with anything resembling that name either. I tried ununstalling an reinstalling a few times, but that didn't seem to do anything either? Any ideas or tips?
Oh, that's definitely odd. Are you playing version 1.2.1? If so, then I'll open access to version 1.2. Please try to download that one and see if that version works fine. I'm sorry for the inconvenience!
this game managed to break my heart and make me cry multiple times... but I love it.
OMG, this is wonderful, great story, i definetely engoyed playing it! This is the first story in a long time that reaaally touched me. Author, thank you for such an amazing work, i love it
not usually a fan of stories centering men but this is 100% smth special and worth checking, finding out what happened between the past scenes and the present scenes is a joy, especially when you use the bad endings' conclusions to piece together the goals of certain characters, as they feel purposefully written to take you closer to the truth, even if it's done in a cryptic way.
spoilers below this line. the game is best played with minimal knowledge!!
the true endings were all pretty great, at some point the game splits into two 'paths', the C endings were all generally quite macabre in different ways, out of them all (including bad endings) the aran ending is my favorite, since it portrays the utter hopelessness of the project for everyone involved (save for frida. she's always winning lol), after the events of the game caleb is incredibly traumatized and seemingly doesnt seem happy even with a successfully recreated aran, 07 had absolutely no means of escape and even if he did, he'd never be able to stop the project successfully and iirc julia's fate is completely unknown. 06 also isnt particularly happy considering he's stuck with an insanely abusive caleb. it's an inherently unsatisfying ending despite it having the least amount of fatalities (afaik only 07 and 05 die) because the project was never meant to improve people's lives, and with caleb never coming to grips with that fact, he would never find true happiness.
out of the S endings, of course ending 1 is the happiest of them all, with seven and caleb both coming out of the project with minimal damage, and their relationship being born sturdy and unshakeable after coming out of the hell that was the hospital. but i honestly really really love ending 2. seven is still happy as he has roy's and caleb's posthumous funds and a nice community in idaho to live out the rest of his life in with a relative amount of peace. but even with seven settling into a calm and peaceful place, the ending isn't quite satisfactory. caleb was never able to let go of the past, the project will ultimately succeed as we see in ending 4, and seven will have to live with the guilt of abandoning it all for his own sake. all this to say that i think ending 2 does a great job at portraying one of the main themes of wttfm: letting go of the past, in nearly every single ending caleb ends up killing himself, and with the sole exception of ending 1 in the other endings he lives in a hell of his own design all because of his maniacal obsession with keeping the past alive. only through understanding he has a future beyond resurrecting the past does caleb find true happiness, which to me is a perfect summation of everything the game has to offer. now i only hope caleb can properly acknowledge his fate as a beautiful butch woman.
as for things to criticize, i would've loved to see more from julia in the C endings. or more julia in general, seeing her in the flashbacks would've helped expand her relationship with caleb. the action scene in both of the S path was a little jarring but i feel it was still written well and adds a much-needed bonding moment between 07 and caleb, even if it's on top of the bodies of several innocent guards. lastly, it would've been nice if frida's nature as a clone would've gotten a little bit more clarification, but that's ultimately not necessary considering it doesn't have much to do with any of the games themes and serves more of a worldbuilding purpose than anything.
ultimately i really liked wttfm, it's a great blend of horror and character-focused drama that does a great job at making you wonder what exactly happened in between those 11 years of memory loss while dangling almost every single answer directly in your face without telling you. the small details that are easily missed solidify the games events as real mysteries that could be solved by an astute reader, such as 07's scars not matching the kind of scars you'd get from jumping off a building, his hair being black despite aran's being blue and the first bad ending showing caleb's unreasonable and emotion-driven behaviour. an absolute joy to read from start to end <3
ps. hi ev
haha omg i wonder who begged u to play the game and made u stream it over call haha wow thats crazy who would do that
Seems like Spader caught another one LMAO, but I'm super thankful for your words, really! I'm glad that despite the male-centric cast, you're still able to enjoy it, which means a lot!
I really enjoyed reading what you thought of the game and its endings. I also really appreciate the criticism because this game definitely still has a lot of flaws! I'll definitely keep it in mind for future projects. Julia and Frida are characters that grew on me a lot, especially Frida. I definitely have more plans for her in store, though sadly I can't say the same for Julia :') I'm always happy to see the side characters getting some love either way!
Once again, thanks for playing and I'm happy you enjoyed the experience! :D
I'm still playing and I want to know how to choose the best ending. I have chosen to use a blank card in chapter 4. Mainly because I didn't want to see them end badly, but I also wanted to know what the truth was.So, can someone tell me, please！
Alright, please follow this set of choices if you want to see the good ending:
This should lead you straight to the good ending! If you want to read it in more details, I'd recommend going to this guide, hope this helps! :D
i love this game. past me didn't know what i was getting myself into. after i finished the story, i felt empty for a day or so. i'm not sure if this is because i want more or because the story messed me up lol
spoilers
my favourite part in the game is when the blonde guy cuts open the protagonist's head. not because of the action but because the doctor looked insane. also what is the name for the music when the music box was playing?
I'm glad you loved the game (even if it made you feel empty afterwards LMAO). The music box's title is "himari" or "ひまり", you can find it in here.
THIS IS MENTAL ABUSE
I loved the game sm tho LIKE OMG THE ARTSTYLE AND THE STORY?? definition of perfection. THE MUSIC TOO ESPECIALLY THE MUSIC BOX SOUND GAVE ME SM COMFORT I STAYED A WHOLE HOUR LISTENING TO IT 🙏🙏😭😭BUT OMG I CANT WITH THIS EMOTIONAL DAMAGE 😭😭😭😭
FINAL ENDING 1 AND 4 MADE ME SOB SM LIKE NO THE CREATOR OF THIS GAME WHEN I CATCH YOUUUU HKFKHFKGDDKH
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS TO MEE😭😭😭😭😭
LMAOOOO thank you and sorry for (indirectly) causing the all caps wailing. I'm glad you loved the experience despite it all and I wish you a swift recovery LOL 🙏
Finished Where the Two Flowers Meet, just as the clock strikes midnight!
Congratulations on such a lovely VN release. It has just the right amount of calmness with a touch of unease to it. The mystery was fairly obvious, but interesting to read nonetheless. I can tell that a lot of care went into the creation of the VN despite having to work a full-time job on top of it. All in all, would recommend this to anyone who doesn't shy away from a bit of darkness and is looking for a short story to entertain themselves with (I finished it in < 2 hours).
Thank you for playing and for leaving a nice comment! I really appreciate it! A lot of time and care really did went into this game and I'm happy that it doesn't go unnoticed. I'm also glad that you find the story interesting! Wishing you all the best and have a nice day! :D
This game had me in a vice grip all weekend! I sat down intending to play it for an hour and next thing I knew it was Sunday and I was making a go for the finale!
WTTFM is such an emotionally resonate and poignant story, I wasn't ready for all the feels!
I wrote full game review on my site: Where the Two Flowers Meet Game Review
Thank you so much for creating such an amazing game!!
I've said this on twitter but I'll say it again, thank you so much for playing through my game and for writing such a well written review on it! I've actually read some of your reviews before and enjoyed it thoroughly, so it was a really pleasant surprise when I clicked the link and saw Blerdy Otome (you're one of the reasons why I decided to finally purchase Sweet Pool, Togainu no chi, and Room No. 9 lol). It's an honor and I really appreciate it! Thank you for all that you do! :D
This game felt so wholesome then it ripped your heart out :( in a good way? I guess haha? Since I really enjoyed your other games and this one I decided to at least support you a bit and got the artbook!
That was lovely and I just really like how you write characters overall. In case you read this (or not it's fine) I would be curious if you have a "favorite / right ending" in your opionion? Aran is so pretty I can't and I feel Caleb's suffering (to be honest most of my characters suffer too so I can't complain there).
Woah Aran pfp!! Thank you so so much for the support! I really do appreciate it, more than you can ever imagine! I'd also like to thank you for leaving a comment on my other games too! I just got around to reading them and it's really sweet. I'm super happy that you enjoyed my works so far and even bought the artbook. I hope you find the artbook enjoyable to go through :D
Writing and creating characters is my favorite thing ever, so I'm always happy to hear that people like the way I write characters! (Especially making your characters suffer, that's really fun isn't it LOL).
[Spoilers below]
As for my favorite ending, I'd honestly say Ending C (the one where Seven snapped and got into an unhealthy relationship with Caleb). It's the most fun to write and imagine all the angst lol. However, the right/canon ending would have to be the best ending of all, Final Ending 1 (the two escaped and moved on). I like making my characters suffer but I also like seeing them go through it and come out a better person with a better future.
I had the default pfp for so long now lol I think it was time to change that and you're welcome!
Oh yeah I'm always most interested in the characters when it comes to story and I love creating characters too and make them suffer lol.
SPOILERS BELOW
To be honest I really like this ending too! Yeah the angst would be great on this one. A part of me would probably hope they come together in final ending 1 though I understand that this isn't possible. Thank you so much for responding to my comment I appreciate it!
/ spoilers ahead!
started my new year off RIGHT with this game. the clock hit 12 just as i got to the epilogue and something about that feels so poetic, hehe
your writing is just. otherworldly. your previous vns, especially for amerta have a very special place in my heart -- and once again, you've outdone yourself aaaaaaaaa i cannot even put into words how much i loved this.
all of the characters are absolutely gorgeous btw and i will think about aran's beautiful hair forever he is literally SO pretty :")
i also really, really love caleb's range in all the different routes, from someone really guilty to someone who doesn't hesitate to literally cut 07's brain out while he's still alive. he's so sufficiently unhinged while also being someone i can't help but sympathise with -- i'm repeating myself but i'm in love with your writing!!
thank you for making this genuinely it will literally stay with me forever
edit: also wanted to add, i love the name of this vn so so so much
Aww happy new year to you raazberry! I'm so happy to see you here as well and to think that you spend the new year playing this game makes me feel really touched! Reading this comment really made my new year better, so I hope the game made your new year better as well.
Slight spoilers below
Caleb was a really fun character to write so to hear that you enjoy his antics while still find him sympathetic makes me happy! I like to tease him a lot by making him go through so much stuff but ultimately, I really care about him LOL
I also thought really hard for Aran's design, so I'm truly happy that you find him pretty! The title also went through some revisions and even recently I've been thinking whether it's a good title or not, so it's a relief that you like the title :'D
Just- thank you so much for playing and for your kind comment! They really do mean a lot more than you can think! Have a wonderful 2024 ahead of you and stay hydrated! <3
Especially final ending 4 had me dying for hours
I also absolutely love Aran<3
(i adore this game)
Thank you for playing and I feel so honored that you made an account just to leave a nice comment! Thank you very much! Sorry (not sorry) for making you cry though LOL
OMG YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR STORIES!! Ever since I played one of your VNs, I fell in love! And I downloaded the others! And just as I expected! All of them were amazing! Each of them gives me such a mix of emotions!! You NEED to keep going because WE.NEED.MORE!!
And Also I hope you a have a great day! :3
AHHH thank you so much for your kind words!! I'm so glad that you enjoyed my works and it's comments like these that do motivate me to create more! I hope you have a wonderful day as well and once again, thank you for giving my stories a chance! :D
This story touched me emotionally, oh my god i teared up during the story and cried at the endings too. It's well written and told in a compelling way and i appreciate that the story wraps up really well too. The art and music also adds a lot to the narrative and it really helped to make you feel what the characters are feeling during emotional scenes.
If you're interested in a good story for a few hours I'd definitely recommend this!

The story is so tragic I cried.
The flashbacks help to distance the sterile hospital from the happy memories of Caleb and Aran together in the house, making the present day feel really desolate. "At the very least they're both alive and they can be happy again" was a really prominent thought in my head until the one tenous thread to those happy days is severed permanently with the reveal that the original Aran is already dead, and those good memories are in the past forever.
It really helps you to empathize with the loss that Caleb feels as you realize Aran didn't make it that far into their "10 year relationship" and is just left behind in the past forever with the rest of their "relationship" being Caleb torturing himself and others in his grief. I genuinely cannot replay the happy memories again without tearing up knowing that Aran dies so early and the scene where Caleb uses a sledgehammer on Aran's corpse and turns all their love and hope and happiness into raw meat and a long-dead brain in a jar actually fucked me up. I genuinely felt grief for Aran and every time I see art of him smiling or being happy in the past that actually hits me.
To top it all off, the endings for Aran being "resurrected" are also really quite tragic. Forgive me if I misunderstood but the resurrection is basically just cloning and the real original person is still dead right? I feel like Caleb would know this as the person who made it happen, and the endings have an empty feeling in them to reflect that, like Caleb is just plastering over his pain by pretending that HIS Aran is back and never took his own life while some poor test subject has basically been killed and a new Aran is just confused and lost.
The ending where he takes his own life next to 7 and wakes up with Ro and Aran back in the house and the first thing he does is hug Aran and cry hit me so hard. I really am so impressed with how this game made me feel because I usually find it hard to be moved by fiction but this story really did affect me.
I had to take a break after that but I went back in and did the 07 endings where he bcomes his own person and im so glad I did that because it gave me some hope. The good ending where Caleb doesn't forget his grief but "moves on" and 7 doesn't forget his trauma but becomes his own person with Caleb really feels like closure. Like they're finally free from the events that happened so long ago and they can move on and stop torturing themselves, its really quite hopeful while still being somber which I adored. In a way, it kinda gave me back the "At the very least they're both alive and they can be happy again" hope I had at the start, just in a different way.
Also the music box at the end is so not fair for my heart.
This game is amazing, that is all.
Oh my god, thank you so much for playing and for sharing your thoughts! I'm always so happy to know that some people are willing to spend a few hours of their time to play this and I'm really glad that the story is able to touch you in some way! That's all I ever want!
Spoilers down below
I'm sorry
(not sorry)about the tragic story lolI also want to confirm that yes, you're right about the "ressurection" part! I'm gonna sound like a nerd for saying this, but technically the project itself is divided into different types of ressurection (like ressurection via brain manipulation, cloning, or by technology). But yeah, the dead stays dead and the whole project is just an attempt to create a "perfect" imitation of said dead person. You're also correct in thinking that Caleb is definitely more aware of this as one of the head researchers. Man really is fighting a losing battle since the beginning.
Once again, I feel really honored that this story of mine is able to move you! Just overall extremely grateful that you gave this story a shot and enjoyed it! Words will never be enough to express my gratitude to you and to other players that played this!
I'm curious though, would you mind if I ask you how you found this game? Just survey purposes.
Thank you for the reply! I found the game while browsing the boys love tag on itch.io and I recommended it to some of my friends after finishing it hahaha.
Spoilers:
The story hurts but its soooo good
Yeah the impression I got was kinda like the game SOMA but I wasn't sure exactly. Poor Caleb, I'm glad he gets some semblance of closure in the ending at least, even though that music box scene is still painful hahahha. I hope 7 and Caleb live peacefully and find closure (╥﹏╥)
Thank you again for the story, I'm glad that I got to experience it cause its left a genuine impact on me and its rare for me to be moved by a game, you really did an amazing job with WTTFM. I've followed you on itch.io and twitter and I really look forward to any future projects you might work on!
Thank you for telling me and for recommending this game to your friends! Thank you too for following me and for the support! It's really appreciated! I hope your friends could enjoy this game as well. 🙇
even with the complications, with the save, i found this to overall to be a great story! i happen to be someone who tends to talk alot when I feel like I can, so please dont mind me, so all the endings were unique in there own way, and i enjoyed every part of that, i especially like the final ending 1: rhododendron just because everything seem to end up well, i like happy endings and well this could kind count as a happy ending in my books, definitely one of the best vn i played so far, thanks for making it. and the cg were all drawn wonderfully, i really like caleb and aran's design, caleb looks really cool in the final ending 1, and it seems like he still doesnt know how to tie a tie. i love all the games you made so far, hope to see something new in the future as well but of course theres no need to rush. but if you do happen to have something planned i wish you luck on that. (i have a bad habit of talking to much i swear dont mind me, dont even read it all.)
Aww thank you so much, gh0xty! And do feel free to talk! I love reading what people have to say about my projects, be it good or bad. I'm happy that you still enjoyed the story despite all the scuff! It's an honor to have this work being regarded as one of the best vns you have played so far! I also worked really hard on all the art, so I'm really happy that you like it!
Once again, thank you for sticking through the game despite the complications and for your continued support! I hope my future works will not dissappoint! Until then, take good care of yourself! :D
im crying. i swearrr i had something to do so i saved and closed the game and by the time i came back home i went on my computer only find out that all the save slots were empty, i knew for a fact that i have saved since it was only a few hours ago, last time this happened i thought it was only a mistake and i had to reread from the start all over again not that i mind to much but, the skip button doesnt work either, perhaps it might have been my storage problems but it wasn't that. the one i downloaded the windows 64bit and also the 32bits one, im not sure if this is just a problem with me though! even though i've only gotten to chapter 5 i can tell this was going to be great! i've loved playing your other games too, i honestly had my eye on this one for a while too
Oh, that is definitely weird. I'm really sorry for all the inconvenieces, but thank you for letting me know about it! I'll try to fix it to the best of my ability! For now, you can use the skip button if you turn on the "unread text skip" in the config. I hope that helps! If it still doesn't work, I can personally email you the game file with a save slot that begins in chapter 5. Again, so sorry for the inconvenience!
of course, no need to worry! thank you for telling me about the skip button thing, i didnt notice it since i didnt see the config, this will definitely help in getting though the dialogue faster. thanks alot!
You're welcome and I'm happy to hear it! I hope you'll be able to enjoy the remaining chapters and don't feel shy to let me know if you encounter more error (hopefully there won't be anymore though)!
of course, i'll let you know if i happen to find anything more errors and such, i do hope there won't be any, i just finished playing the c route and its so good! im crying, literally the final ending 4 is so nice, its like we can finally see them happy together, i happen to like hydrangeas.
I am so upset I recorded this whole game which by the way was a masterpiece. So epic. But there were a few parts of my recording that just had stuttering audio and it would freeze, god I hate my laptop. I will find a way of getting it resolved lol.
But again, thanks for this game. It was such a wild ride.
By the way present time Aran is gorgeous, the cg in final ending 2 I think it was, stunning.
Woah, thank you for all your effort of recording the entire game and I pray for your laptop 🙏
I'm really glad that you enjoyed the overall experience though! Thank you for the present time Aran appreciation too, always happy to see that :D
deadass rushed it but fr excited for upcoming games from you
Ooh this is VERY CUTEE! You drew them really well and I really love how soft they look here! Thank you for drawing them and for your continued support! :DD
dude this game i love it so much, too much that i wanna draw something with the two characters so sorry to bother but is there any socials you have where you posted the initial sketches/ og designs i know theyre at the end of the game in the gallery when you finish but i forgot to save when i played it a few days ago and only realized now that i have the time to draw.
hello! Thank you for playing and I'm glad you love it! I don't really post their og sketches too much, but you should be able to see them either from this post: https://syllphana.itch.io/wttfm/devlog/585467/wttfm-behind-the-scenes-post or from my insta. It's: https://instagram.com/syllphana and it should be in my 💐 story highlight. I didn't post all of the early designs there tho. Hope that helps and I hope you can have fun drawing them!
I am back with drawings of Aran XD
I wanted to do a simple design for Aran, but when I did it, I realized I had a lot of different ideas, so I drew him in different ways. He is not as beautiful as the original and my proportions are not that good, but I really enjoyed drawing him. Also, these are just paper drawings, nothing amazing XD
I also found an interesting coincidence. I was looking at my drawings waiting for coloring and then I saw that a few days before the game was released, I drew a guy that looked so much like Aran. So for fun I colored him like Aran.
I really hope you like my drawings <3
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FIOb0j4wbKPI1wXasQDAgbu9bja3sp43?usp=dri...
(I forgot to modify the access to the drawings but now it's done. Sorry for that)
Oooh! Thank you for coming back and showing me! Super duper excited to see it but I need to request an access (which I already sent, sorry for all the trouble!)
EDIT: Okay I can access it. Your drawings are SO ADORABLEE! I love the way you drew Aran, he became so pretty and moe! I myself haven't drawn him with Ro, so I became really happy seeing him relaxing with Ro in your drawings. The design of your OC is also really cool! Thank you so much for sharing those with me!
I will write about how I felt in detail later, but I really need to say this...It was an amazing and beautiful story. I CRIED SOO MUCH. THIS STORY TOUCHED MY SENSITIVE SOUL AND THE FINAL ED 1 MADE ME CRY WATERFALL (Oh, i am not screaming, btw) One of the best vns I have ever played on here istg. I really want a sequel, but I don't think that will happen. Anyway, thank you for this wonderful story. I LOVED IT SO MUCH.
Woah thank you so much for playing! I'll be looking forward to hearing how you felt in more details when you have the time to write it down! I'm definitely extremely happy that you enjoyed the story though! And about that sequel, there's actually one planned. It won't really focus on these main characters though, but they'll make a really small and subtle cameo at least. It'll focus more on the universe itself. I hope you can still look forward to that!
Hi!
Snowy and I finished playing. It was a ton of fun!
We got through all the endings and had a lot of discussions throughout our route choices. I also predicted the plot twist around Caleb almost as soon as it was revealed what he specialized in.
This was the order in which we reached each ending.
Final Ending 4
Final Ending 3
Ending 3
Ending S1
Final Ending 1
Final Ending 2
Ending S3
Ending S2
Normal Ending 2
Normal Ending 1
I do have questions about one of the routes though.
I don't want to put spoilers here, so I'll put it into a pastebin: https://pastebin.com/raw/UvFq21S1
Thanks for making this wonderful game!
Hey Knice! Thank you so much for playing through the entire game with your girlfriend! I really appreciate it! Knowing the order which you guys reached the ending was a really interesting insight too!
I'll answer your questions below so heavy spoilers down below
In the final ending 2 (choosing to live for Aran), Caleb and Seven didn't take as much time talking in that tunnel when compared to the other choice, so they had time to escape. Even if barely. While Seven took a bit to convince Caleb in the Seven ending, creating enough time for Frida to step in.
Also, about that fight scene, honestly I also thought it's goofy, but I look at the scene again and I decided to fully commit to it, embracing it LMAOO. It may not be the best decision storytelling wise, with the mood shift, but I'm glad to know that it made you two laugh at least!
I hope that clears up any confusion about it! Feel free to ask me if there's still something that confuses you. And lastly, thank you so much for your continued support so far! I really do appreciate it and I'm always happy to hear you two enjoying my games. Take good care of yourselves!
would it be possible to add fullscreen? I am finally able to play now lol
Oh, you can go fullscreen by pressing f (it's during in game only though)
oh thank you!
Hey Amaris, thanks for the update and I'm glad you enjoyed the ride!

Thank you! I hope you'll enjoy what's in store whenever you get to playing it! :D
I have played both of your games so far (For Amerta and WTTFM) both of them are really great! it's unlike other VN I have played so far. Your VN are the best ones I have played, definitely in my top 1. I am also planning to play Sweet Valentines. I bet it will be great! Keep up the good work and take your time :D
Aww thank you so much! I'm really happy and feel honored that you think so about my works! I hope Sweetest Valentine and my future works will be able to entertain you as well! Once again, thank you for your kind words and have a great day! :D
This is really good! It's quite long, so I only experienced Route S ending 1 and 2. However, the entire process is excellent, and I really like the art style.

I want understand more about Aran's death, so I might explore the other routes in the future. I was expecting more tension&angst between Aran and Caleb, but I love their dynamic.
Overall, great job! This work's story & writing style is very different compared to "Sweetest Valentine," but I love them both equally. 😊
Cherish! Thank you so much! (I'm a huge fan of your game by the way, it's amazing!)
I'm glad you enjoyed the experience and also glad to know that you enjoyed both my works! Having you enjoy my art style is also such an honor and a huge praise, so thank you for that! I really do appreciate your kind words :'D
I hope you'll be able to enjoy Route C whenever you get into it! Thank you once again and have a nice day!
I love this game SO SOOO Much. I played it for almost 6 hours straight. The story, the characters, everything was amazing. It was moving and every ending was so interseting. I really really LOVED it.
I particulary loved to learn each characters stories, since I tend to put myself in the place of people I want to understand. It was so emotionnal and I really enjoyed learning about the original Aran's story and about Caleb. So my favourite ending was when they ended up together again, it was so cute and heart warming. (I won't lie, but it's also because I really enjoy BLs XD).
The character I prefered the most was the original Aran. His story was so depressig that I felt i a bit as my own in some ways. I won't say that what happened to him happened to me, but I understood some of the things he felt because I felt them too. I really wanted to take him in my arms and to hug him to tell him that everything would be ok, but he still died.
To sum it up, I loved the game even more than the others by Syllphana (not to say I don't like them, I love them too). I always love these games that are exactly the kinds that could keep me awake all night to play them restlessly. I thank you Syllphana and all the persons who helped to develop this master piece. Wish you all my best wishes for the future and I hope to see you again for another great game ( not to pressure you XD). Take care of yourselves and thank you again for this amazing game.
Also, I decided to try drawing Aran my way, I loved him so much that I wanted to do it to pay him tribute. I can always share the result later.
Thank you so much for playing and for the kind comment, Sophie! I'm really really happy that you enjoyed the entire experience and also knowing that this is your favorite work of mine! I worked really hard on it, and so does the people helping me, so I'm happy to know our work did not go to waste! Thank you for all the wishes and for your continued support!
I also can't wait to see that Aran drawing! No pressure though, just go at your own pace and only share it if you're comfortable with it. :D
I will definitely play this game :0
