Your works scratch the creative side of brain in a very stimulating way. It's been so long since I've been able to get back into this mindset and channel it into creative writing.
Thank you very much for all the incredible experiences, and for this one in particular. As always the writing is powerful, but the overall quality is even higher this time around.
I should play it again from the start and see where it'll take my mind this time.
Aaaaand of course you put a .gif of the spanking scene right near the top of the page. Honestly, that's probably the single most on-brand thing you possibly could've done, lol
All jokes aside, this VN turned out spectacularly~! This is easily your best work yet, Nadia—and I say that despite having been completely blown away by Hopeless Junction just a year prior! Watching Malmaid come together was an absolute delight, and I'm yet more pleased still to have had the opportunity to help you polish it up~
For everyone reading this comment who hasn't yet experienced Malmaid, stop dragging your feet about it and just read the damn thing already. It's well worth it, I promise~
Shana is a babe, but my heart goes out to Millarca and especially Imogen forever. Also, the track Aeon of Maiden has low-key been stuck in my head ever since I first heard it, heheheh~
Um... WOW. was not expecting this to be so good jesus christ. The ending wasn't happy per say but it very much contributes to the story overall and it's very well written in my opinion. Very sad ab Millarca tho she was so sweet 😔
Honestly just incredible. The moment I understood everything that was going on was such a huge gut punch. And there's so many great little details; I adore the mouth movement on the sprites!
Absolutely amazing work. Just fantastic scene building into even more fantastic scene. I will be thinking about the final scene, about its emotion and conflict, for a long time.
made an account just to say holy fuck. this was a fucking experience & a half jesus christ
i went into this blind & im so glad i did holy pissing fuck if you're reading this i urge you to do the same. came for the art & stayed for the story amazin gwork
hey yeah so i self inserted too hard and related too hard to the point i went catatonic during the epilogue out of sheer shock, jealousy, envy, and disgust and YET i still wish it were me. thank you for this gift 11/10
Welp, I finished the art book and had some time to collect my thoughts. The second Millarca started talking about wanting to go outside I had my thoughts on what the game was "about" and I was roughly correct. It's a great idea, I love the biased view that Liliana provides and how it serves to give credence to Francesca's "side" despite obvious reservations that most players would have given we live in The Real World™️. Unfortunately due to my personal experiences with stuff similar to Francesca (not a cult, just parents) it was never gonna be a serious debate between "who's right" in my mind like you said in the art book. I'm team Imogen. I think the part that sealed my opinion the most was when Francesca kicked Liliana across the room in her fit of rage. The game felt like more of a one-sided horror game to me, and a damn good one at that. The horror I felt as I realized there was no hope for Liliana to see through the programming and someone was going to die was intense. Poor Millarca.
The intimate scenes for lack of a better word were also so well done. I love how palpable it feels that Francesca is completely aware of Lilianas feellings and is refusing to really sit down and interact with them in an emotionally honest and healthy way that Liliana deserves. It's such a subtle but amazing way to show the manipulation going on imo. I also adored the scene with Millarca and Liliana but that's just because I'm a freak.
ANYWAYS, I just wanted to say again I appreciate the fuck out of the art you make, it's very resonant and means a lot to me. I rarely see these really weird, messy, awful, and amazing feelings that come with being queer and (in my experience) especially trans. Every time I get a notification of a new release from you it's a great (and awful) ((but in a good way)) day.
