the art is amazing!

I love the world building and the art style of this game. It's truly glossy and satisfying in both the cold apocalyptic way and the smooth sexy way. One thing I do have to say tho, as a woman, is that the cervix and the uterus are not for sex. They are for making babies. If you are slamming into a woman's cervix she'll be curled up on the ground crying from the pain. Total mood killer. Luckily most men don't have that long of penises in the real world lmao

Edit: did some research, some actually do find it very arousing if the dick GENTLY touches their cervix. but roughly slamming it is definitely uncomfortable, and penetration past it is physically impossible it does not open that way.

Hell of a short story, heartstrings well and truly tugged.

Congrats! ^-^

Thank you! ^^

Any plans to make a Mac version? I'd like to try it out

Sorry, I don't have a Mac so I can't test it to ensure it runs properly ><

Really impressed by this game and after playing it, I knew I needed to throw some money your way. I hope your working on other projects because this could easily become a good series.

Also the writing was awesome, I only wish I found this sooner.

Thank you for your support!!! ^^

This was nice. Would love to see this one-off extended.

Thank you! ^^ I'm currently running through some ideas, like perhaps a set of new CGs with captioned h-scenes. Stay tuned in the upcoming months!

Um, did you really have to take the other games down, though? I know they're not really "down", but they are still great VNs that deserve some visibility. Couldn't you just update the READMEs and sites to have a notice about how the world has changed substantially in your latest game? There are lots of people (including me) who would (and do) love those games, while not being interested in this at all. Just a suggestion.

EDIT: Or maybe put some kind of splash screen that has a disclaimer, I don't know. All, I know is, I've seen people retcon certain things about their game worlds before, and they almost never just outright remove their previous games from public view.

Thanks for regarding my previous projects so highly! In the future I plan to rewrite/remake them into a short stories anthology VN, but it'll be a while before I can get to that project.

In the meantime, if people want, I can make my previous projects accessible though a new public project page (there'll be a fun reason for making a new page 😉), but that too will take a while to set up so keep an eye on my Twitter for updates regarding this.

Caught my eye due to sharing a name with a flower from my homeland (after playing, I looked up the etymology of genus protea and think your game title is perfectly suited to the subject matter). This is a beautifully crafted work of art.

I recognise it's from a game jam, so this is definitely not criticism, but I wished there was more when i got to the end.

Thank you for the kind comment! ^^

Bug report:

I got to a part (around the end of 'round two' during the game's opening) with a black box.
It was replaced with a line of text after I clicked twice.
I clicked again and the text was replaced by a different black box, but that only lasted a second; because itch pretty much immediatly crashed when the second black box appeared. Not just the game, the itch desktop application.

Hi! Thank you for the bug report. I just tried it myself from the itch app but couldn't replicate your bug / crash. >< Maybe the files got corrupted when they were downloaded. Try reinstalling the itch app and the game, or running the game's exe directly outside of the itch app.

I shall try those next time my roomie's PC is available.

An excellent period piece.

It was an interesting experience. I'd love to learn more about this dystopian world

Thank you! 😊 If I come up with interesting ideas I'll write more stories that take place in this world.

OH BRAVE NEW WORLD THAT HAS SUCH B!MBOS IN IT.

When will the product be finished

With luck, within the month of March. ^^ Progress updates will be posted to my Twitter account so keep an eye on it if you're interested in the project's development!
