this game brought me to tears. i have actually been following your work for some years now and played this game without knowing it was yours! it was a fantastic experience i will never forget. you and your creations are a blessing, thanks for this wonderful piece of art. everything about it absolutely struck with me in a way i cannot describe
Absolutely mind blowingly beautiful game. I've followed your art for a long time and seeing Wayde and playing as him was a really wonderful experience-- I'm so excited for the next acts, and hope that you make them.
This game was both tender and cold, comforting and heart-breaking. The atmosphere was incredible and wonderful, and your art is absolutely fantastic. Loved it, genuinely.
This game is so pretty in all ways!!! im waiting for more content :D i love the detail of history accuracy n mental health info. The extra was so funny HAHAH
Congrats on your first project from argentina!♥♥♥☺️ love your drawing style!
杰作
Hope fullscreen option so that phone browser players can play comfortably
希望有“全屏”选项，方便用手机玩的网页玩家
这个游戏不支持用手机玩。
额……好吧(´⌒`｡)
This was really incredible. The art especially is absolutely gorgeous! The use of mixed media really adds to the unnerving feel of the game! I cannot wait for more!
oml i LOVED THIS, its so poetic and idk how to explain it. Cant wait for more!!!!
I stumbled upon this game from a post on twitter/x, and this is the best RPG Maker game I've played in a while! It was very good and I can't wait to play the rest of the game.
please teach me how to play this game, thanks I u can༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
I’m the developer, how can I help you?
Hello, I am completely in love with your game NARRENSCHIFF, I'm so glad you made an English translation! I really appreciate how you included elements of LGBT in the game, it's so nice to see it included in a game especially one from China, you did such an amazing job on the music and gameplay! I have some questions like, are you making a second game of NARRENSCHIFF? and I'd love to know your socials so I can see the other content you've made. Thank you <3
Hi! I’m still developing it and it might take another year because second chapter is longer than I thought. If you want to see my other works you can follow me on instagram which is @_heretic_ceramics , hope you a good day!
太美丽了，无论是视觉效果还是文字，最开始会下意识觉得是不是在谜语人，但是越到后面越会沉入文字带来的思考和美感中去。第一章刚出就玩了，真的是非常美丽的一款游戏！！各种元素运用得非常到位，意犹未尽！
The visuals, the music and the story are so beautiful!! The story made me cry in some parts and I cant wait for the continuation!!
母亲是最想接近却又难以触摸的他者，我想我跟韦德有相似的困境。
谢谢作者，我数次被其中诗意的语言以及精妙的展示所震撼，我衷心认为作者做了一个非常非常好的游戏。
I hesitate to comment given this is a beginning portion of what is to be a longer story, but I do enjoy what I am seeing right now. Interesting turn of genres and some beautiful, visceral moments.
I didn't realize this was demo so I thought this was going to be just the 2 hour game play - I am pleasantly surprised that we will be having more.
Will we be seeing more horror amplified in the coming portions or will it be the atmospheric gentle uncanny we have now? How much of Wayde's past will we get to unveil? While I have my curiosities, some of the most powerful scenes in the game come from evocation through gameplay interaction. (the butcher work, the museum)- so I am torn.
But given what we have, I am sure the developer will give us great things to chew on in coming months.
很有冲击力的作品！我非常喜欢，喜欢细腻的像素风格，恰到好处的叙事和简洁的界面。一切都很好，其他的作品我也会游玩的。
i like the menu
this game is, like everyone else is saying, amazing. the art, the writing, the gameplay, it's all so well thought out and has so much passion behind it. i can't wait to see what you do in the future
太棒了！当主角转向屏幕问问我是谁 鸡皮疙瘩都起来了！主角莫名的小帅哈哈还有部分吐槽也可爱！非常期待第二章！
This game was amazing. I really loved the heavy feelings that it evoked. I can't wait to see the res of Wayde's story in act 2.
THIS WAS ACTUALLY AMAZING OMG I AM SO EXCITED TO PLAY THE REST I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS A FIRST PROJECT!!! LONG LIVE OLD MAN YAOI AND COMMUNISM!!!
OLD MAN YAOI AND COMMUNISM MY LOVEEEEEEE
I played this in a 3-hour fugue and it irrevocably changed the chemical makeup of my brain. Good stuff, and I'll be looking forward to see how the plot develops. I love it.
this was fricking BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! long live the yaoi and communism game!!!
Thank you for sharing your work! After playing through the first chapter I can only say that I'm completely enthralled by it. The atmosphere feels cold and yet there is so much warm to it. You've created scenes filled with symbolism that transmit emotion so strongly and beautifully. I wish I could express what I feel for this piece with better words. Needless to say, I'll paciently yet eagerly wait for the continuation of this piece of art.
this game was fucking amazing, keep the good work coming
This was amazing...from the storytelling to the art. My heart genuinely ached during all of it. Just amazing. Best of luck on your game developing journey.
非常好游戏……里面的画风让我想到很多画家和作家，Schiele，Frida，装置艺术，以及一些拉美文学，这使得故事内容的结构非常有趣，饱含深意但不枯燥，完全是引人入胜的程度，如同小说一般富含诗意的文字，巧妙的动画，独特的插画和解谜相结合，故事分为不同的章节，为观众铺陈出一场两小时的胜似电影却互动性更高的视觉小说（看到最后只是第一章，真的很期待接下来的发展！还有标题的意义仔细思考真的很有故事感……能看出老师做得很认真很细致，对OC和故事非常负责，之后如果能发行一定会买，希望老师在现实里能一帆风顺）
真的是第九艺术……以前都是看实况，这次亲身体验在首页刷到被吸引一口气玩完，感受到游戏能承载如此严谨深刻的话题，对喜欢看书又喜欢解谜游戏的人来说是非常美妙的体验，也感谢配乐老师，音乐部分做得非常切题
I've been playing games on itch-io for a while but I just made this account cause I needed to comment on this game. I just finished the first chapter and it's left me absolutely astounded: it's so well written,the characters, the graphic style, the plot, all the symbolism and lyricism that goes into the storytelling... This game is truly AMAZING and I felt so hooked and captivated by it through the whole gameplay that I had to complete it in one sitting. Im looking forward to playing the second part once it's avaliable. Super good job! I hope you receive the support you need in order to continue this wonderful game! <3
This game has tbh the most interesting style of storytelling and story overall. The artstyle is so amazing to and ahhh i wanna include more but words for this degree of amazement were not invented yet
Also it kinda pulled me out of a long depressive episode. It just captured some hard feelings so perfectly, and inspired so much there was no other option than to get better.
Thank you so much for posting the game and leaving a translation <3
真的牛逼，过去很多年体验最好的一个轻解密游戏。每一个谜题都和故事很强地关联在一起，故事里的每一个角色也都很有意思，太期待第二章了0w0
It´s so interesting that we don´t stay just as a "bystander", cause what really happens is beyond that, we really enter the atmosphere and the past and present of events, we enter the character's inner world and delve into their suffering, their memories, their confusion, their hope...we see and listen to the their experiences, we feel it so close to us that it´s not possible to pay attention to anything other than that sensation, what makes us understand the characters so intimately and that's just beautiful. At least that was my experience with the game.
I just left my rating comment cause I just finished the game and I'm still delighted with the beauty and lyricism of it, just perfect!
This game is amazing... I didn't really know what to expect going into it, but it was so haunting and intriguing. The emptiness of the setting, the recurring themes and imagery, and all the foreshadowing and hints at what's to come, it was so fascinating to play through... The situations that both the protagonist and his mother had to endure are so painful to witness, but in a really compelling way. I felt so much sympathy for the protag's mother and the trajectory of her life, but also for him and how he never asked for any of this either...
I really love how you have woven surreal, sci-fi horror with a deeply introspective and personal type of horror, and how well the two fit together and compliment each other. This is such a masterpiece in pacing and horror, I'm really intrigued and excited to see where the story goes!
i love this game so much! thank you for providing an english translation, it was a very emotionally impactful experience. i added it to my steam wishlist for the full release.
Fun game. Would you be interested in a Spanish translation?
its already been a couple months since I finished the first part of this game but I genuinely think about it often. I can only respectfully wish for you to continue this story and offer more English translation in the future. It truly moved me emotionally and it was a pleasure to have been able to try this game.
im so so grateful for beinga able to play this game!! been following edgar work on twitter and when i found the game on my front page of itch.io i was so excited to play, and it was totally worthy it!
lovedd the story, even if it's only the beggining, the setting of the game already paved the way to a great story and think the museum of anna its one of my favorite pieces on game, it's so beautiful and delicated, its visible how much work and effort was put on this.
the visual of the game had me in chock, everytime i kept being amazed by how much you explored rpg maker setting to make such a unique game, the black and white scenarios and the use of real images was so spot on.
as a person with bipolar disorder and ocd, some parts were really gut wrenching, like the psychiatry gallery, but i was glad to learn more about mental disorders throughout the whole game, i am excited to see more about it in next chapters!
anyway i wrote too much already, but its been a while since a played a rpg maker that made me feel so excited. also big thanks for the translation team for making this game more acessible to people, and thanks for the sound designer for making the atmosphere of the game even more immersive ^^
sorry for any typos, love from brazil, keep up the great work <33
I found this game from twitter before it had an English translation so I'm so happy that I got to play it now! I love the art and how the story is being told, it's surreal and very engaging! Also the bonus stage at the end made me laugh when we got to play as a cat lol
So glad you've decided to include an english translation, this is one of the best games I have found in itchio for a long time, I was moved to tears at the end of the first act. Such impactful storytelling throughout!!! I will definitely be getting the full version on steam when I am able!!
被首页安利来玩...呜呜呜太棒了超乎想象地好，我一整个失语....无论是剧情深度、文本的流畅度、艺术展现度都非常棒！总之期待续作❤️
你好，很感谢作者能创造出这样独特而有重量的作品！！最后一部分是流泪着完成的，很高兴能够参与到这样优秀的作品中。福柯的疯癫与文明曾经在我对自我精神状态质疑时起到了一定的启发，从而了解到了愚人船的概念，游玩之后实在是百感交集，感动之情溢于言表，，请作者一定要继续创作继续表达，感谢！！！
