Shyria has spent her whole life in a family that didn't love her, living a life full of abuse. At the age of 16 she gives birth to a child - Chyla. With her daughter, she finally has something in her life to give her joy. As her father kills the baby, something in her heart breaks and the last bit of light fades away, being replaced by pure darkness. She leaves her home and searches for a place to bury her child. As she looks up from the grave, she finds herself in the small garden of an abandoned house. In that moment she realises that she has a goal in life and uses the house to develop the greatest things in her life, and to take bitter revenge. The prequel of a questline of an MMO in progress :)

I've recorded a let's play of this, but I had to stop after a while as the story was getting to me. I'll upload it as soon as possible and post here when I do. I need to know: Where did you get the music? I'm worried about hitting any copyright issues and since there's no voice acting I was planning on just muting the music if it's not royalty free. Anyway, well done from what I saw so far.

I have the rights for all the music tracks. It is royalty free, and you can actually check out who made it and what tracks they are here: Indiedb.com

If you hit issues with the copyright, you can rightfully say that you have the right to use them, and refer them to talk to me to prove it. I'm in contact with all the makers, they are happy I used their tracks. I don't think you will get issues though, given there is already a LP on YouTube and there was absolutely no problem.

I'm looking forward to your Let's Play, make sure you remember to give me a link :)

I've just completed a first walkthrought of the game.
I like it! So my impressions:
Longevity: not so high but good, texts are very long and well-written, the story could change considerably depending of some choices.
Gameplay: tipical of a visual novel, so good, and well designed "HUD"
Graphic: the images are perfect, the menu buttons little less.
Functionality: the game works perfectly, no bugs and the soft has a very small weight (so it's very fast... maybe tooo fastttttt)
Story: very original, maybe some passages could be further detailed (like some aspects of the parents) but in general the plot is strong, pleasant to read, exciting and exhaustive.

Great work Yldrania.

Thank you very much :) The fact that the story around her parents is litterally non-existant is that this game is, as mentioned in the features, the pre-story to a questline of an upcoming MMO and can thus not be mentioned in the game because it would ruin the gameplay experience :)
