I had this in my library for so long, and finally got around to it and couldn't put it down. I really enjoyed the characters featured within. Also appreciated the realistic look at what depression is like.
I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! I feel like a good mark of balancing realistic elements and decidedly unrealistic premises. Please consider trying the sequel as well, if you want to play from Lizzie's POV!
This game was a complete story at launch, so it doesn't really have regular updates. If you want more of the characters, there's a second game subtitled Dusk and Dawn.
Sierra if you want me to be completely honest, I don't know why but this series has latched onto me so firmly. I'm wildly in love with the characters and the plot and everything about it. The way you have formulated this visual novel is absolutely remarkable and I promise it will be a staple in my memory for a very long time to come. I never really was interested in romance apart from the odd shows or animes I would watch, but this series doesn't get enough love. This is my 4th time watching this series over the course of the 5 years I've known it and I'm just as absorbed as I was 5 years ago. I really can't express how much Passion and love I have for the series and I really, really do hope that you continue the story to where Lizzie and John could start a family or destroy KoiTec once and for all. It's been a pleasure to experience this content and I hope you inspire many other game creators. Thank you so much.
And please create a 3rd game, I'm going to go crazy otherwise and maybe start a pharmaceutical company. >:)
Mostly just the sex scenes; they exist where they do in the normal VN, the NSFW version just doesn't fade to black. There's arguably some content within the scenes, but it's not an expanded version by any means.
this game and dusk and dawn are absolute S tier visual novels. After playing through both and getting all endings and every picture in the gallery I'm really hoping for a third game.
Hey, Sierra, You're my absolutely favorite gamer, make games and continue, you are the best! I hope that everything will come out and the games will come out more often.
Hi! My name is Rance, i am a Game translator I just finished playing both games and I would like to Translate them both into Brazilian Portuguese, I really liked the game and would like to translate it for other people to know.I've already translated some games, the vast majority in Renpy
In this case it would be an official translation, you give me the game's rpy files or I get the rpy files myself, I'll translate everything, I'll return the files to you and you put them in the game, we'll talk about how this would work, how you send me the files , payment, these things.
Thanks for the kind words! I have more stories in mind for Lizzie and John, but I'm afraid I can't promise whether or not I'll be able to make them. Since this is my career, I have to be careful about taking on new projects.
The plan for the third game would feature the two of them navigating life as a married couple and the changing social environment due to the events of Dusk and Dawn. Lizzie has deep reservations about having children, and though they would exist in the hypothetical fourth game, she would need time to process the ways in which people can matter to her.
Crimson Gray was the game that introduced me to the rest of your work, but I know that developing longer projects like the potential Crimson Gray series could be a bit of a risk. I would love to see more and just wanted to express my appreciation for the two so far.
I'm always happy to hear from more people who enjoyed their story. ^-^ Please leave reviews or spread the word however works for you. The continued encouragement I've gotten from fans really does make sequels more likely.
This is a pretty reliable site, so I wouldn't imagine that would be a problem. The game is also available on Steam and other platforms, if you prefer that.
I'm not generally interested in visual novels, but I really enjoyed this. There were some really good details and it was very immersive! I might start looking into other visual novels because of this one ^_^
Just in case the author is keeping track of comments...Steam now allows ALL the lewds/nudes. Feel free to update the Steam game permanently with the NSFW version!
Feel free to keep the SFW version here for those that aren't into all that. ^_^
What you say about Steam is correct, but the situation is a little tricky because the game was accepted under the old system. Given how inconsistently Valve has acted at times, I'm reluctant to test them on this. All future games will go up uncensored, though!
I've confirmed with other (NSFW) game devs that Steam current guidelines/allowances are retroactive; even if games were previously rejected for content they are now openly permitted.
At worst, you could contact Steam Support and ask :)
okok So I actually bought this on Steam literally after the demo. That's a first for me. I have no words - though I managed to leave a review on your Steam storepage. Kudos to you, Sierra Lee! and damn you for giving me good reason to throw valuable money on you >.>
Btw. This NSFW version, is it accessible for me as a Steam purchaser? I feel strongly against asking this openly, but welp I saw no info on it at a second glance. Hope others who surely are wondering get this question answered as of this.
ps I totally didn't recommend this game to a friend named John

I actually just played and finished it earlier today, and very much enjoyed that one too.
Great!
Getting to the true ending became progressively more rewarding. I liked the game from the start and loved it by its end.
Additionally, your portrait of depression was intensely therapeutic. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad the game could reach you that way. ^-^
is this game still being updated
This game was a complete story at launch, so it doesn't really have regular updates. If you want more of the characters, there's a second game subtitled Dusk and Dawn.

Is there any additional plot in the NSFW version or is it just sex scenes?
Mostly just the sex scenes; they exist where they do in the normal VN, the NSFW version just doesn't fade to black. There's arguably some content within the scenes, but it's not an expanded version by any means.
What a Top tier visual novel one of the best I´ve ever played and I love Lizzie´s desing it is very memorable and beautiful
Thank you very much!
Completely unrelated, but sauce of the picture?

Thanks~!

Thank you, I hope to make it one day!
Hello, when will the 3rd part? It's my favorite game!
I can't say for sure, but every person who loves the games makes it a little more likely that I'll return!
Hey, Sierra, You're my absolutely favorite gamer, make games and continue, you are the best! I hope that everything will come out and the games will come out more often.

I'd need more information about what you intend. Fan translation via a patch?
In this case it would be an official translation, you give me the game's rpy files or I get the rpy files myself, I'll translate everything, I'll return the files to you and you put them in the game, we'll talk about how this would work, how you send me the files , payment, these things.
Give me some contact info so we can talk about details.

Huge fan of both games. Love the realistic portrayal of depression and the deconstruction of the yandere character archetype. All I want to know:
1. Will there be a third game?
2. What would it be about? (Saw something about Lizzie having kids on the TLS wiki page for her, but it wasn't cited)
Great games, strongly recommend to anyone who can read

I wanna buy this but I am unsure if it is safe to, has anyone reported any problems with people hacking credit card info on here?

Hands down one of the BEST VNs I have ever played, rivaling the likes of Majikoi, even in such a short burst.

If I buy this game here do I also get a Steam key?
There's no system set up for that, sorry.
Ok. Thanks for the fast reply and I think I'll get it on Itchio in that case.

You can turn your Steam version into the NSFW version with the patch here:

I used to have more clear information about it on Steam, but sadly Steam is being very frustrating about NSFW content. =(
dw~ you worked your fair share, I believe. So really no need to thank me for thanking you x3
Kudos and keep on rocking, Sierra Lee
now this time there IS Linux support, but i am broke...
Well, at least this Linux version should work smoothly for you if you decide to get it later! Ren'py supports Linux much better than MV.
Just finished the game on Linux and it worked great. I've never had any issues with Ren'py games in the past.
Glad to hear!
